BewareThePenguin 1 Report post Posted June 7, 2009 (edited) You can make your point without acting like an idiot, you know. Like the guy who made the momma comment, which you let slide? While turning around and busting on me for "dumb" comments. Again, you all scream the other guy's classless, while letting your own get away with the filthiest garbage of all. The "troll" is the guy who made that little statment, I'd say. Edited June 7, 2009 by BewareThePenguin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tman77 40 Report post Posted June 7, 2009 (edited) Again, the double standard: want me to point out Crosby's regular season numbers? Not to mention how his numbers blow away Hossa's stats in the playoffs. But posters here only want to bust on Crosby for his FINALS performance. I've seen about every Detroit playoff game -- when performance matters most. Hossa was invisible about every game except maybe one vs. the Ducks. The Pens rode Crosby to the finals, the Wings carried Hossa there. Big diff, bud. Hossa = Hockey Socialism. Double standard? I didnt say Crosby got a free ride. You claimed Hossa did... and I proved how biased and dumb you are by backing it up with Hossa`s stats that he was a top scorer on the team and a big contributor to the Wings success. Now whats your next excuse? *edited typo Edited June 7, 2009 by Tman77 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RWK23 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2009 Good gosh, the guy's been the leading scorer of the whole playoffs and you act like he's a big flop or something. As for two-way, you missed the other night when his brilliant bat of a puck -- right out of the air -- killed off a last-second charge by the Wing to even the score (Game 3). He managed to get the puck into the Detroit zone, but just enough to die and have to be played by Osgood before iceing could be called. If that's not big-time defense in the clutch, I don't know what is. But of course, you don't see things like that wearing the hater's glasses. Just saying. The guy turned 22 not long ago -- yeah he's got some maturing to do, but what were your star players doing when they were 19 or 20? Watching Power Rangers in their feetie pajamas. I'll take Crosby on my team over just about any other player in the NHL, any day. So would you, if you were being honest. If we're talking long term, he'd probably be fourth on my list of players I'd take behind Ovechkin, Getzlaf, and Malkin. Toews and Parise are in there as well, but I think I'd take Crosby over them. If we're talking about one year, do or die, he's way down the list behind players like Ovechkin, Malkin, Zetterberg, Datsyuk, Lidstrom, Getzlaf, and a few others. He has a lot of developing to do which, to your credit, you are acknowledging. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BewareThePenguin 1 Report post Posted June 7, 2009 So your saying without Crosby, the Pen's would not be in the Finals? And without Hossa, the Wings still would made it to the finals? Well let's see, Crosby is the leading playoffs scorer, so... yes. And Hossa stepped up in exactly one playoff game, so... yes. I mean, this is so painfully obvious I can't believe I actually have to spell it out like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just like you all like to bust on Pens' fans for being "classless" while letting one of your own slide with that "felt his mom" comment on this thread. You want to claim you're a cut above in the class department -- show me. Discussion over until that time. Adios. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, this is so painfully obvious I can't believe I actually have to spell it out like this. You just missed the point. We really need a facepalm icon. If you don't think Hossa has been big for our team, you don't know much about hockey. He's been pretty big on our defensive end and in the neutral zone, regardless of his scoring. You know, it's the whole reason of why we're winning: defense wins championships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted June 7, 2009 or that goal i think in game 2 where crosby just conveniently pranced around the net while z who was untouched scored. Game 3, but you're absolutely right. He's right near the play the whole time and essentially watches as Leino takes it to the net and Hank buries the rebound.

Tman77 40 Report post Posted June 7, 2009 (edited) What`s really dumb here is that certain people equate no goal scoring = the player sucks. Forget about all the nice plays to set up a goal and the defensive plays they made. Nah...they suck cuz they can`t score...lol (/sarc) And btw, it was three games he had 2 goals in. God, the idiocy never ends. *Edited typo Edited June 8, 2009 by Tman77 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, this is so painfully obvious I can't believe I actually have to spell it out like this. Here you go again with the whole scoring = production/stepping up debate. Is it maybe possible, just maybe, that there is more to the wonderful game of hockey than scoring goals? Like preventing the other team from scoring goals? That's a pretty important thing too, isn't it? Because, Hossa has done a fine job doing that if I don't say so myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skacore 2 Report post Posted June 7, 2009 Thoughts from skacore's Nest: I think now that Datsyuk is back the Pens are overwhelmed and outclassed just like last year, if they want to be a contender again in the future they may want to think about tanking another few years so that they can have world class players given to their franchise (again) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did I spell it out enough for you? See? That's one of the (many) reasons why the Wings rock it. In this playoff run, at some point or another, we've been without Rafalski, Datsyuk, Draper, Kopecky, Lilja, Ericsson, and Lidstrom (am I missing anybody else?). And we're still in the SCF? Realistically, if Pens had been out Malkin and/or Crosby do you think they would've made it this far? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
