As long as we stay out of the box the Pens can do absolutely nothing against us.

This has been great Wings hockey through 1.

The game is far from over though. The Wings need to keep applying pressure and tally a couple more.

It looks like Malkin has hard time adjusting to Wings defense. He is still trying to stickhandle through the whole Wings defense. Also he has trouble finding time and space for his shot, which is quite good I have to admit.

He's absolutely clueless, just like most Pens players. They know what they're supposed to do, dump the puck, forecheck hard, but it doesn't work. Frustrating to say the least.

Sorry if this was already posted, but does anyone know why McCarty is scratched tonight? Is it just to make room for Franzen?

Yup, to make room, hes a healthy scratch :P

Hmmm......1 beer = 2 goals.

Yeah, the Pens clearly cannot handle Detroit 5 on 5. I wonder if there's any discussions in the Pens locker room like "holy s*** they're good, we can't handle them" hehe.

This is from the LetsGoPens board.. note that I haven't bothered to sign up there, I just lurk it. Name of the poster omitted to protect the less than innocent.

"By understanding the position of goaltender and not staring at a statsheet...Osgood is the weakest link of that Detroit team...we should have had two on him already tonight on a couple plays that he was simply not a part of...

Pucks to the net is the hard part, not so much beating Osgood...and that much is quite obvious."

Thought you guys would enjoy that.

To ThreeRiversFan and a couple of the other decent Pens fans here, I'm sorry. We have our idiots too, you know.

This is so special to watch, guys...seriously. I don't know if we'll ever see the Wings play this well ever again. SERIOUSLY.

Well I can say that I haven't seen a team so determined since the back-to-back cup years. The hunger these Wings are showing..... god its beautiful to watch.

Great period.

Best part is, I really can't pinpoint anything the Pens are doing wrong. I dunno, maybe Therrien can, he's their coach, not me. But it's not like the Pens made some dumb mistakes or didn't play aggressively enough or anything. They're just getting outplayed.

They are missing their chances. The Wings aren't. How many times are they going to miss the puck when they get a close in chance?
