SCF GAME 1 GDT: Penguins 1 at Red Wings 3

[russianswede919293 95]

for the wings to win the cup? yes the bounces are absolutely necessary. I am simply stating the obvious, even the more mature wings fans realize that they got all the breaks tonight, it is part of the game. You guys can whine about Sid all you want, but you are whining about someone else supposedly whining. Once again, show me something in the last 2 years where Sid has whined? He is suppose to talk to the refs, he is the team captain, that is his job. At least you aren't whining about the refs tonight, I am so sick of hearing that and some magical conspiracy with betman and the Illuminati on planet X using jedi mind tricks on the refs in a super secret conspiracy to give the Pens a cup. Can you guys get over that much at least and realize that the wings got lucky tonight? That is necessary to earn my respect. I am not here to call people names, just telling it like it is. Anyway, good luck in game 2.

Please tell the Washington fans to not throw hats on the ice to celebrate their best player scoring a hat trick...

Is that not complaining???

If it isn't I am confused as to what it is...and whatever you call that...Sidney does a lot of that.

Ha, Nick in a suit. Way to look sharp, Captain.

The Wings got the bounces. They also have the advantage of knowing how their boards work and use that. I'll admit that there was a certain bit of luck that went into the win tonight. There's always luck involved in hockey.

However, for the first period and a portion of the third, Detroit just flat out outplayed Pittsburgh. There would've been no boards to read, no bounces to catch, and no ugly deflections to make if it wasn't so ridiculously easy to keep the puck in the Pens zone.

That second period was almost all Pens, though. As I'm sure you know, momentum constantly switches from team to team in the game of hockey. While there's always luck involved, I honestly think the Wings just played better for most of the game.

I think Nick actually has a suit on under his hockey gear. That's just the way he rolls.

[sixer 37]

Very happy Nik is feeling better! #1 Class Act, he never complains, whines, etc.

He is an Elite Star, not cry baby crosby!

[David 2]

Man, every other question about the boards. Good thing the media is aware of JLA's nuances

[TheUkrainian 49]

Damn, Nick is dressed like a coach...classy eh?

Are you serious? There were at least two instances in this game alone. He gets decked, and retaliates on Zetterberg's back. He loses, and he slashes Malts as he's on the way to congratulate Ozzy. If thats not whining, I don't know what is.

Not enough? Here you go:

He's a sore loser and a complete joke.

Not much to complain about with all the winning he's done.

Yeah...his birthday suit...

You know what Robert Palmer said. "Every girl's crazy about a sharp dressed man."

Really, I think it's funny that Ozzie and Justin were in their warm-ups, but Nick is in a suit.

[EuroTwin 240]

Ha, Nick in a suit. Way to look sharp, Captain.

He looks so classy and smart. Way to make us proud, Captain!

Also, Abs is funny. I remember watching his game winner for the championship with MSU and screaming my joy that he was going to be a Wing.

Also, Oz is hilarious. I want to see him cursing at Al about the boards!

Well that doesn't count because... because... because... he was just talking to the refs. It's his job as captain. Yeah... Who cares if it looks like he's really wearing his whiny face? That's not whining.

Have we known Nick to be anything other than classy?

[Wingers17 8]

Didn't ZZ Top say that too?

[edicius 3,269]

lol.....would you say, perhaps, psmitty is "whining"? Or just Sidneying?

My friend, I do believe you've just coined a phrase.

Get this, my wife who could really care less about hockey was watching the game with me and during the pregame she said something like, "Jesus, this is too much. Can they stop talking about how 'special" Crosby is. This is absurd. What, are they going to show everyone year of his school pictures next and have his mother tell us his favorite dinners?"

[Electrophile 3,554]

Nick speaks English better than I do. I don't know if that should embarrass me or not.

And look out, Sid the Kid is on his way.

[Ms_Hockey 0]

Yep. Sexy, intelligent, and humble.

[ChelisChick 174]

Pubes In A Suit is up!

Here's the Cryer now.

Whoops, it was ZZ Top. I thought it was Robert Palmer that said it.

Damn it Sid, ******* shave. You look ridiculous.
