Nightfall 871 Report post Posted June 13, 2009 Osgood proving all his doubters wrong and playing so well in the playoffs. Hossa scoring 40 goals in the regular season. The Wings playing well as a whole all season long. I will also remember the Ducks outplaying the Sharks in the first round and upsetting them. Game 7 against the Ducks was epic as well. Cleary scoring the game winner in the final minutes of the 3rd. Lastly, I will remember the hungry Pens team outhustling the Wings in the finals and Hossa being denied his championship. That really makes me feel bad for Hossa. To get him that close and to watch it slip away again. Has to be gut wrenching and I feel for him. This season was chock full of great memories though. Thats what I am going to focus on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snazzy 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2009 (edited) What You'll Remember Most From This Season? This Red Wings team is the best in the NHL. They played through injuries and came up only one goal and a bounce short to keep the Cup in Hockeytown. Our depth is is amazing and we have a very bright future for many years to come.

55fan 5,133 Report post Posted June 13, 2009 Visiting Dad over New Years and watching the Winter Classic New Year's Day, a tape of the '97 final game on Friday, and going to our last game together vs the Wild on Saturday. 3 days=3 wins (yeah, so one was taped. It still counts.) The Grand Rapids kids showing us how bright our future is. Malts' and Drapes' 1000th games. Ozzie's redemption. Mindfly calling me a fat cow in the GDT. Zata and Mule becoming Wings for life. Good times. Fond memories. There is a story about a boy in Africa who wanted to give his teacher a special present. For 3 days he walked through rough and dangerous ways until he reached the ocean, and he returned with a jar of sand. The teacher commented that it was a lot of work for a jar of sand. The boy replied, "Teacher, the journey was part of the gift." And so it is with the Wings. We may not have the ending we wanted, but we've had months of excitement, with more joys than sorrows. Their gift to us is the journey. Next year, folks. Next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
