Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 Seriously, how could they make such a mistake? They grab the players when they're walking off the ice and down the rooms, how could they grab Downey instead of Datsyuk, who was the player they obviously intended to award the 1st star to...

Z and D for the C 712 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 I think it should have gone to Crosby, THEN Downey, to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vincanni 1 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 Someone must have aimed a little south when clicking for Datsyuk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sixer 37 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) Downey is seriously amazing. With only 2mins and 37seconds in ice time, he is the #1 star, amazing! That has to be a record. Re-sign him asap to big contract! Get it done Kenny. Edited March 14, 2008 by sixer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

esteef 2,679 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 cause he would've whooped somebody's ass if he wasn't the first star! Barch...Hut! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vincanni 1 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 Probably going to attract some hate with saying this but in all honestly I don't think he deserved to be 1st star, clearly this was Datsyuk's game, now second star I say he easily makes. Those were a phenomenal 2 and a half minutes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeeRYCE 2 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 NHL.com listed his as first star as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 It'll be interesting to see his reaction when he finds out. Way to go Downey! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lebda4Pres Report post Posted March 14, 2008 Well we should be laughing at Chuck Pleiniss of the Macomb Daily for the crappy picks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedFX 48 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 Word is Babcock kicked Datsyuk, Zetterberg, and Lidstrom out of the Red Wings locker room because they are not worthy of Downey's presence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 Downey as the first star is about as laughable as it gets with regard to this game. Here's who I would have picked for the three stars tonight: 1) Pavel Datsyuk. 2) Jiri Hudler 3) Johan Franzen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cirov19 1 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 How did that happen? Chuck Pleiniss just has a drop down box and missed Datsyuk by .. one. Or maybe Downey threatened to take him down like he took down Laperierre! Anyways, nicely done Downs! PS. Good work Chuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vladiator 116 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 Obviously technical problems, but what the hell, maybe he deserved it at the least one game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 He really had only less than three total minutes? Wow, that must be an NHL record for someone to get the first star, albeit a miscue, playing that little of ice time. See... I told everyone how valuable Downey is. Now, it's etched in writing.
