No, I want all the naysayers who negged me and such to have their crow and eat it too.

I took the crap for laying it down how it really was. You folks should stand up and recognize that IT WAS how it was. Eat the damn crow.

The importance you place upon vindication for its own sake is strange. Your demands for it are comical in light of the fact that you've no logical reason to deserve it: you don't know if the Red Wings would have beaten the Coyotes. If you hadn't noticed, they're doing pretty well.

That said, discussion forums are not the place for you if you find being disagreed with a difficult experience.

The point of the thread was to point out we weren't going to beat them in the first round, but we could beat them later on. We needed to get a grove we didn't have yet, and if we played PHX we might have won.

WE KNOW NOW WE DIDN'T BEAT NASHVILLE!!! That proves that 6th would have been a better outcome.

Subjective.

I can throw so many other what if scenarios that don't hold any more or less weight than your deal that says we should've finished 6th.

What if the Wings won the final game of the regular season in normal time and the Predators lost their final game, making the Wings the 4th seed?

What if Franzen's "no-goal" in game 3 came a few tenths of a second earlier?

What if Hudler didn't hit the post in game 4?

What if three teammates and Howard didn't overcommit in game 4 on the Predators 2nd goal?

What if Rinne let in a bad goal or two throughout the series?

I can't give you the answers to these questions with 0% truth/fact, just like you cannot say us finishing 6th would've been guaranteed victory.
