Will we ever see the Marian Hossa from the regular season again?

40 minutes left to find out.

To his credit, he's playing well defensively and throwing his weight around a bit.

[Xitium 272]

[EuroTwin 240]

Oh my goodness. An interview with Crosby? That never happens! How unique! I wonder what new and interesting things he will say?

[titanium2 867]

Look everybody, they were nervous. This isn't the first time they've started a game all jumpy with nerves. Like it or not that just seems to be something they need to get out of their system in order to settle down and play their game.

Let's count our blessings and appreciate that the game is tied at this point.

[SuperNovaXll 124]

I really dont think I would mind Crosby as much if he wasnt shoved in our face....every...single.....game....

[ChelisChick 174]

Okay, so my stomach settled down and now I'm about to eat some cheesecake.

Cheesecake?? *perks up*

Will we ever see the Marian Hossa from the regular season again?

i think his knee is bothering him. he played great in games 4 and 5 against the hawks but got checked and hurt his knee towards the end of regulation in game 5 and he has not been the same since - his acceleration is just not there

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

Also, yes, let's single out Hossa. That's always fun.

Why not?

He's playing about half as well as he did in the regular season.

[SetecX 139]

NBC = Nothin But Crosby

[Vladifan 680]

OH MY ******* GOD NBD FROZE UP AGAIN! SOME OF US OUT OF TOWN ARE HAVING THIS DAMN GAME BROADCAST TOTALLY HOSED!!!!

Don't know where you are but I'm getting it in Texas. Could be something closer to you than Rockefeller Plaza or for that matter, closer than Pittsburgh...

[LondonWing 0]

I know they outshot us badly in the first period and dominated a lot of possession, but I thought we still had the best chances to score.

Let's keep the D going and take some of those chances!!

[Electrophile 3,554]

Seriously, NBC. Stop fellating Crosby. How about a piece on Cleary or Hank or Ozzie or anyone else not named Sidney Crosby?

[Fatal 1]

The first was everything I hoped.

The Pens threw everything at us for just about a full 20 and we took it in stride. We still had a lot more chances than the 3 SOG would indicate.

They CANNOT continue to play at that intensity with the wings leaning on them the whole time. The ice will tilt for the Wings.

This is the second period. Both teams have had huge seconds. Be mindful of the long change and avoid icings.

Hopefully we get the makeup call on the GI early in the second and we cash in on it.

Go Wings!

I hope someone asks him why he picks up the little pieces of tape after he is done taping his stick. Very commendable, making less work for the janitorial staff at his arena.

I think you're right on there...

I really hope they reveal all their injuries after the playoffs, will be very interesting

These intermissions take longer every game.

Agree. 90 percent of the time we get better as the game goes on. They'll adjust a few things and come out steamin'

[Vladifan 680]

Goddamn Kronner has been making me nervous these Finals..

Stuie too.

[MagicMan13 8]

When is Stamkos coming, the NHL needs some new material

[titanium2 867]

I don't know about anyone else but I'm actually not all that surprised that Hossa has struggled. He got way too many of his goals from around the perimeter in the regular season. It's no wonder he hasn't been injured all that much because he just gravitates towards the outside.

[Electrophile 3,554]

Cheesecake?? *perks up*

My birthday cake was a strawberry swirl cheesecake.

Did Cherry just start crying over Crosby?

2nd defensive pairing MUST be better, both Kronwall and Stuart were guilty of some really poor turnovers.

[Firehawk 305]

That pass by Datsyuk to Zetterberg was beautiful. If the puck weren't bouncing, it was bang bang and we're up 1-0. Instead, by the time Z settled and shot it, MAF was there. Nice chance though.

[tdinc 45]

Ok the 2nd is upon us.

I'm picking Z for the first goal..

whos next
