sportsgal116 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 Wow. THAT was a penalty? I haven't said anything about the officiating yet tonight because I thought it was fair. Changed my mind after that last call. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ILWingsFan1 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 Thank God that's over. Wings need to get it together. Not that I expected the Pens to roll over and die, but geez. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edicius 3,269 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 In all honestly, we're lucky we came out of that period down only one. Not our best period by far. Now NBC can slobber all over Crosby. "HE TOOK A SHOT! HE MADE A PASS! OOOOOH!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 One of our guys obstructed in the slot trying to get that rebound. No call. And they're setting so many (illegal) picks in the offensive zone, too. Funny how Therrien complained about the Wings "obstruction" and now that's their gameplan on offense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chase 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 Well pens started playing better there during the last half of the period. I would like to congratulate the Penguins on their first goal of the Stanley Cup finals!!!! Congrats kids!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NHLrules? 32 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 How is this team so streaky on the PP? Baffled me all freakin playoffs so far. We look great half the period, then like s***. Cmon guys you dont want to let the pens and the refs into the series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 oh, jeez... Wings need to come back out and score a couple fast, so we don't have to watch Uncle Mario's baby boy get the limelight the rest of the evening. Bleah... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jedi 1,865 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 Hm... Hossa missed on a wide open short side... Only Lids kept that from going it. Sadly, we're lucky to be down only one there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VM1138 1,921 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 So Pittsburgh has a goal? So what? The Wings can keep it together and come back. They just need to be a little smarter defensively and get back to passing tape to tape. They need to hustle a little, too. Lots of pucks were nearby when a Wings player didn't pressure. We just need something to take back momentum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been trying to type that thought, but the server keeps hanging for me. The Wings will do better next period, for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edicius 3,269 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 He stuck his leg out. I don't have a problem with it. You gotta admit that Malkin sold the hell out of it, though. He goes stiff, arms to his sides, and completes a mid-air 360 before hitting the ice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 Brad Stuart's pass. He should also scored of Datsyuk's unbelievable effort behind the Pens goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 Im not really concerned. The Red Wings actually looked BETTER after Pittsburg scored than at the start of the period. Did you see how slow they looked? They need to get the adrenaline pumping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zion 93 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 Okay, let's get the goal back and take back the momentum! I had a bad feeling after a few great chances, and no goals halfway through the period. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 Stuart is a guy who's either going to play great or play s***ty. There's no in-between with him. He's made 2 dumb plays in this game so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Third Man In 2,091 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 That was a good period until the last 4 minutes. The Wings were outshooting the Pens 9-1 and playing a perfect road game. Still, 0-1 after 1 isn't a terrible result. Kill off this penalty and get back to what you were doing, Wings, and you'll be fine. Let's Go Red Wings! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
