Jersey Wing 1,521 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 A Pens fan posts: Zetterberg's goal was scored with Crosby on the ice. In fact, the puck carrier made a strong move to the front of the net and Sid chose - for some as yet unknown reason - to do a flyby and continue skating behind his own net while the puck was five feet from the front of his goal. It was a tremendously irresponsible play, especially considering that it was his check who ultimately scored the goal. The Wings are not really making lackadaisical plays like that on the defensive side of the puck. That's part of the reason why everyone - from Crosby down - is having a hard time putting the puck in the net. REPLY: Transition goal from a give-away. Sid isn't a defender... If you want to pick out one play and make your argument, thats going to give you a negative view of anyone; this is the root of all the "bench Letang" talk. Sid is grinding out minutes and has forced Zetts and Lids to grind them out too. Now if he would only shoot after he ties up 2 world-class defenders... REPLY to That Yeah, Sid isn't a defender. But overall team defense wings championships. Look at the Red Wings. http://www.letsgopens.com/scripts/phpBB3/v...f=1&t=36838 Hmmm, the Wings are taking up so much room in their heads they should be paying rent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 I love how its now Sid that's tying up Zetterberg, and how he's gonna wear Z down over the course of the series with his flawless forechecking, yet Zetterberg has three times as many points as Crosby, and is a +3 compared to Sid's -2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
