Hockey9019 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) I think its more of a "punch in the gut", "kick in the face", "insult" to win the cup in Pittsburgh, and just show all those Pens fans, what they could only WISH they could say is theirs. So no reason to start all these threads about how we are done, this person sucks, blah blah blah. Its going to be 1000 X's better to just be right there in front of all those Pens fans, showing them what we EARNED!

So no reason to start all these threads about how we are done, this person sucks, blah blah blah. Its going to be 1000 X's better to just be right there in front of all those Pens fans, showing them what we EARNED! For the record. Those who are claiming anybody sucks are ridiculous and should not be taken seriously. I don't think anyone on the Wings suck. I just think Franzen's failed clear really, really sucked donkey balls. But I like your line of thinking. Winning it in Pittsburgh, just to rub it in. I like it alot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShanahanMan 473 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 I disagree. I would have way rather seen the cup held in front of the fans.......instead, if we win, we will get deafening boos, absurd amount of heckling, and probably lots of debris thrown on the ice during the ceremony. F*** that.....I wanted that Cup at the Joe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pavyaz19 1 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 If we aren't careful you might get your wish. I can't take a game seven. I might not be able to watch it. And if I do, and the thing goes into OT... I will surely puke - hopefully only once. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 Honestly, I always like playing away games more. Being booed is such a great feeling. Granted I don't play in the NHL, but still. Plus, it's The Cup. You win it when you can win it, and it's just as sweet either way I bet. WE. WILL. WIN!* *In 6. (trying to start something here) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wingsownnhl43 14 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 I don't think any poster has said that any player sucks. Posters have said Osgood and Franzen SUCKED. There's a difference, and to comment about how poorly someone played in a loss, as a fan, is acceptable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 When the Wings won the cup in washington in 1998, the Caps fans stood on their feet and cheered the Red Wings. They were undoubtedly heart-broken, but at least they got to see the cup in person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jericho613 74 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) Yeah I think the Wings will win Wednesday, lets give the Pens some credit, they were fighting to stay alive, much like Dallas did, but it is what it is, move on, play Wednesday and win it. Go Wings !!!!!!!!! Edited June 3, 2008 by Jericho613 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

e_mcgrath88 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 here here.. i'm not worried.. We won in Dallas in 6 and they were much tougher than Pittsburg.... The Eastern Conference has nothing on the West.. this series should have been over in 4 games.... dallas, anaheim, san jose, amongst other western teams probably would have beat this pens team if they were in our position... this series will wrap up in 6 games..

Go Wings !!!!!!!!! I'd give the Pens credit for a shift here and there and thats about it. They got dominated for the vast majority of the game, and series. All their goals were soft and/or flukey. I don't give them credit for much, but maybe thats because I expected so much more from them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Try giving the Pens a little more credit maybe. As of right now you are merely 1 game better than they are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
