Only player that I don't feel sorry for is Jovanovski. (Yes, not even Doan.)

You're right that we can't play the Kings. Give me Nashville so we can be free of these 10:30 start times for just one series. Plus Anaheim's still dirty.Who do we all prefer next? SJ/ANA/NSH? Wings can't play the Kings I don't think, and I assume VAN is gonna advance...

I officially hate CBC. The first thing they do after the win is show when the Pens beat us... AGAIN! I know I complained about this the last game, and now they did it again. Bastards.

I'll toss a word in for the Coyotes fans too. I don't envy them at all. Gonna be a long, scary offseason. I don't like it when some of our fans take delight in them losing their team.Only player that I don't feel sorry for is Jovanovski. (Yes, not even Doan.)

Great to see the Wings close it out in 4. Now some much-needed rest for a veteran team with some injuries.
A tip-of-the-hat to the 'Yotes and their fans. I hope they find a way to keep the team in Phoenix. Shane Doan may piss us off, but that's because he's good, plays his ass off and is a strong leader. Their team was overmatched but Doan always showed up. I saw him in tears after the game on the ice. It's a tough thing for the players and fans having so much uncertainty. Glad they saluted the fans and hope to see them back at Jobing.com arena next season.
Bring on the next team!

Filppula?Great team effort that we are used to seeing when this team is rolling but 3 guys really stood out. Howard, Helm and Dats. Totally different gear by all 3.

Dats was solid, but I think Drapes played a more important role. 13 simply did what he had to do, but Draper is playing some of his best hockey, EVER!!!Great team effort that we are used to seeing when this team is rolling but 3 guys really stood out.

Great team effort tonight all around. Like mentioned probably a hundred times before I guess this team could flip the switch after all. Wouldn't have been able to tell that the last month or 2 of the season.
Now it seems I don't care who we play against cause this team seems unstoppable atm. Really impressed how we took care of business tonight even when being down by a goal. Very impressive....

OK, so I had to go to choir practice tonight. Easter comin' up, ya know...So on the way home I'm listening to the game on XM radio. And I thought about who I really wanted to see get goals. And I swear to all on a stack of books of your choice, I started saying out loud, "Cleary, Bertuzzi...Bertuzzi, Cleary". Cleary has worked his ass off, and Bertuzzi has picked up his game dramatically on all levels.
I AM SO DAMN PROUD OF THEM. AND OF THE WINGS. I never expected a sweep, but it's OK. I can live with it.

You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.

You know Pavel is hurt, you know Zetter is hurt, you know Franzen is hurts, you know it is great to get a week off.

Tootoo does NOT belong on this team. He is classless and I would rather see the Wings be bad than classless. I feel the same way about Bertuzzi as well, but he at least CAN make the team better. With Tootoo the team becomes worse and in danger of being classless. Would you have liked Claude on the team? Or Roy? No. So why would you be okay with that POS.

Filppula?
Yup, that might have been one of the best games I've seen Flip play ever. It's a little frustrating to see too cause if he played (and shot the puck) like that in the regular season he could easily be a 30 goal/70 point guy.
"And? If I did, I probably would have been a fighter, so what?"
Who knows; maybe you would realize that enforcers in hockey are critical to a teams chemistry and overall success?
