Pensfan 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2009 Should the Pens win tomorrow night against an old and tired Detroit team, it's "game over" .... Time to start thinking about rebuilding and going with a "youth" movement like the Pens did. ------------------------------------------ 'Zack is Great' Uhh.... you don't "rebuild" after making it to the Stanley Cup finals. This is the exact same team that won it this year, and will be the exact same team for the most part next year. Also, the only reason Pittsburgh even has that youth is because they sucked for most of last decade and this decade, and almost got moved to Kansas. Now, do you really see the Wings ever considering moving to Kansas? gtfo. 'BleedRed&White' Youth you say? Didn't our AHL team put us up 2-0 in the first place? 'mule' By going with a "youth movement like the Pens did" do you mean tank for 5 years and pick up as many high first round picks as they can? 'Jaymz99' You know what, you're right. I say we find our own douchebag that whines ALOT and make a team out of 2 guys that, if they were injured like Pavs, the team completely falls apart and nothing gets done. That is a great idea. Looking forward to talking to you after the playoffs. Until then, keep it classy. 'Reds4Life' Pens got Malkin only because they sucked for a very long time and they got Crosby because the league wanted to save the franchise. Definitely nothing to be proud of. 'dat's sick' If the schedule for the finals hadn't been the biggest f***up in sports history, the Wings wouldn't be this tired. Close a series in 5 games and get 2 days rest? WTF. And I'd like to see where the Pens would be if Malkin was injured. There's a reason Datsyuk is nominated for MVP, and it isn't that he's not important to the team. 'Snazzy' Whoa! This is definitely sig worthy 'cusimano_brothers' Does that include having to go to the bring of bankruptcy? 'GoWings1905' Oh you mean sucking for years and getting the top draft pick multiple times? 'YoungGuns1340' You mean sucking ass in order to rack up a handful of Top 3 picks? No thanks. But its good to see the only way the Pens can be competitive is through 1st and 2nd overalls. 'Frozen-Man' :caution: And should the Wings win tomorrow night against the slightly younger and overpaid (comparatively to Detroit's stars) I guess they can tank for a few more years so that they can get some more 1st and 2nd draft picks, they obviously don't have the ability to draft well deep or entice free agents (just ask Hossa ). If in your opinion it is "game over" if the Pens win (and that wouldn't even win the Cup) what will it be for the Pens they will be down to the Wings again and lost last year - sooooo who should rebuild. Seriously though, you are the first and only moron that I have ever heard float this idea concerning the Wings. Good job guys! Way to let him get under your skin and give him exactly what he wants. Why some people have such a hard time ignoring others on the internet is beyond me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why some people have such a hard time ignoring others on the internet is beyond me. What did you expect? And anyway, even if this wasn't on the internet I think this same sort of thing would have happened (bar, house, stadium, etc.). You don't go into someone else's house and mock them without expecting them to fight back.....unless it's Sindey's house, in which case they won't fight back, they'll just cry to a ref and have him do it.

Outsider 42 Report post Posted June 6, 2009 I am sick of all these threads saying that the wings are tired. That obviously is a huge contributor to their play, however I'd like to say its more of special teams. They very well dominated the first two periods last night, out shooting the Penguins by quite a bit. But our penalty kill is awful, and were deffinetly not making up for anything on the power play. Turovers were costing us as well, Ralfalski, inparticular is VERY GUILTY for this, his mistake on the powerplay giving Jordan Staal that goal totally shifted momentum for the Pens. just my two cents. Perhaps you didn't understand the full gist of the OP's post. Physical fatigue leads to both mental AND physical mistakes. These mistakes are occuring BECAUSE the Wings are tired. It's really not that difficult to understand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why some people have such a hard time ignoring others on the internet is beyond me. And you did a good job too! Your mom would be so proud of you, I'm sure. You go to all this trouble and all this painstaking detail, bolding and highlighting and coloring (Oh my!) to come here to show us where we're oh so wrong. Why some people have such a hard time staying out of other fans' business on the internet is beyond me. Especially when they were never asked for their opinion in the first place.

Did you notice how hockey13playa said that yes, the fact that they're tired is a huge contributor to their play? Did you also note that he thought it was the special teams who were the weakest and that the team dominated at other times? Did you also notice that he specifically said, "Just my two cents"? So where does your know-it-all attitude and condescension come from? Who are you to put this poster down? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
