Detroit's first line has never had a bunch of tough guys.

Probert Yzerman Gallant was a pretty tough 1st line.

I will stop trolling as soon as the ducks boards clear all the wings trolls. It is 2009 and you are on an internet forum, get used to it.

If you are talking about me being a troll on your board, that's not the case. I've been a member there for over a year and I try to talk intelligent hockey, although TBH it's pretty hard to do on that board.

Very surprised there wasn't a suspension. Pretty sad that the NHL let the cheap shots go without suspending somebody on the Ducks for what happened. That has no place in hockey after the game ends

are you really bringing baby jesus into this lmao, the last i heard is that hockey wasnt around at that time for that to apply to a man made game.

Check the winking smiley thing on my post before you take it as gospel (damn another JC reference...)

Wow, cracked his skull? Which hospital did Dats go to? Did you see Raffy's bloody face? Holllyyyy s*** they beat the living fu-- oh wait, no, they didn't. It was a scrum. A rather intense one, but nonetheless it was NOTHING like a brawl. Indeed the Ducks need to be punished more for their extracurricular activities but you've done a fantastic job of embellishment in that post.

Ah the joys of being flamed by someone who has issues reading my post......?! I said 'cracked him on the skull'...that's a turn of phrase, essentially meaning hit him on the head....although i am amused by your assumption of my grammatical incompetence!! (and I did enjoy your turn of phrase in that last sentence)

As i said in the part of my post THAT AGREED WITH YOU it wasn't a brawl. But rafl did take a number of blows to the head and back without even attempting to fight.....I don't think we are really disagreeing, just that my choice of words was perhaps overly british and perhaps not explicit enough in its meaning. The only real point of argument is that I feel slightly more strongly about the Ducks having a free pass to utilise physical intimidation after the buzzer as a regular and integral tactic, particularly as it only ever seems to apply to our small skilled guys. Its a slightly primeval manner of behaviour which is unnecessary in a sport that already gives leeway for physical confrontation.

Niedemayer was sneaky dirty, getzlaf was a little overly pumped up, but Perry was as per usual, just a cowardly bully. Its mad to see this team where Pronger is comparatively looking like a saint...who'da thought it?!

As a fan I'm scared s***less. The Wings were in a position to end the series and make a serious contention for the Stanley Cup Finals (it is the Hawks after all). Now they have to face a Ducks team with a huge amount of momentum in a home game where they HAVE to close the series. Considering Detroit has ended the last 8 series on the road, that scares me a lot.
As someone who tries to be reasonable, it is a good chance for the Wings. As a fan, I'm terrified.

Amen! I feel like that watching any team I support in a tight game....but when you win, its great!!

the league will do nothing, none of our players got hurt

Pretty funny considering you're from a country chock-full of soccer hooligans that are loathed throughout the continent of Europe.

Been to a football match in the uk have you? Most of the hooligans over here died out in the 80's, even the chelsea headhunters who were indeed a scary bunch of racist inbred f***wits. I've seen 1 fight at a football game in the 20-odd years I''ve been going, and that didn't involve a punch. Want to see real scary fans..go to italy or poland or turkey where stabbing foreigners seems acceptable. BTW I admire the inclusiveness and friendliness of US (and Austrailian) mainstream sports massively, and it furthers my hope for the human condition...however this doesn't stop the fact that your initial post made you sound like a jingoistic, pro-gun imperialist fruitcake...thankfully all ours died out in the first half of last century when you lot became the world super-power (though if you read the foreign policy documents etc this process was sped up by systematically weakening the british economy and favouring all its rivals, which was entirely unnecessary and contributed massively to the current situation of ineffectual, self-loathing, morally superior, multiculturally conservative schizophrenic melting point that is modern Britain - although we are doing our best to keep up by importing your shameless materialism, culture of urban violence and celebrity obsessed, morrally bankrupt dumbed down sensationalism!).

Or in other words, The USA is a great place that has many wonderful qualities, but is messed up in other ways, much like the UK and most other western societies. You just drew attention to the f***ed up qualities, so i responded with some old school british smugness....

PS....i think this board is great, and love reading the thoughts of some of the posters on here due to your intelligent and reasoned analysis, and unlike so many forums this is not over-populated by ignorant teenagers. Also as a brit its interesting to hear about off-topic things form people with other perspectives.....even if, like with me and F.Michael, I can't resist a bit semin like ***** slapping...

Sorry...sometimes I get carried away with whimsical self-amusement!

Hawks4Cup · May 14, 2009

I pray the Hawks have a go with Detroit. I can't decide who whines more the players or the fans. "Oh the Ducks are so mean", boo hoo, woe is me. Gordie Howe is ripping his eyes out right now watching the spineless wings playing girls hockey out there. The Production Line never complained the other team was "To Rough". Tell the wings to leave their panties at home for game 7 and show up and play hockey. BTW - no way was that a cheap shot by Neids, he was simply trying to adjust his equipment and just happened to catch Dats with an elbow. The man does not have eyes in the back of his head for god's sake.
