This was a great series. The only thing I found disappointing at the time was that after the '08 Cup, Detroit's fans were super cool saying the Pens were a great young team, the team of the future, and that Pens fans should be proud and looking forward to upcoming seasons. I thought that was cool. But when the Pens won in '09 those same people were whining and badmouthing the Pens. I was very surprised and disappointed by that. It's important to be gracious in victory as well as defeat...IMO
I'm a Pens fan ... and hopefully Pens and Wings fans alike can agree on one thing if nothing else: the '08 and '09 Finals were two of the most entertaining playoff series to every occur in the history of the NHL. It's turned into a pretty awesome rivalry now because even their 1 or 2 regular season meetings are treated like a playoff game.
How about another loss handed to your sorry ass team today? Was it hard to take? Hahahaha Sharks up 3 games to NONE!! I fucking love it! I'll tell you what, I jump on the bandwagon for ANY team playing against the fucking Red Wings. WOOHOO there will be no Stanley Cup for the wings this year! Ya better get off the bandwagon, bitch!
@BillSteer99 thats what makes you wings haters pathetic your sorry ass team is done for yet you sit there and root for whoever is playing against the Wings. You act like you win anyways if the wings dont win the cup which is fucking stupid and pointless. The Wings will continue year after year to fight to win the cup unlike your sorry ass team and all the teams that hate the wings.
Red Wings eat shit! Fuck off all you Red Wings fans, biggest fucking crybabies ever. Red Wings fans are the biggest fucking bandwagoners in the history of NHL. I love the Coyotes, but I can't wait to see the Sharks put you fuckers out! Trust me, I'll be there watching and I will be so happy!
A fucking Yotes fan calling Red Wings fans bandwagon your fanbase is the most pathetic of any team in the NHL period. You fuckers dont come out to watch your team untill they start doing good that by defintion is bandwagoning. You fucks talk all this mad shit on my video for the wings yotes series and then cry like little bitches when they go down and now its silence except for the few fagits like yourself. Stay off my page you pathetic losers you will never win the cup.
@ozzmoises OH YEAH talk about empty seats in an arena? Funny I saw a wings game where there were like 50 people total in the crowd at Joe Louis. How do you explain that, douche bag? Even when the team is doing good, the people still don't come out to watch. Haha you need to get your shit straight, fuck face.
@BillSteer99 50 people huh and when the fuck was this? The Wings games have been packed for years and if its not sold out its not cuz the fans dont support the team its because of the bad economics in detroit. The Yotes fans coming to the games now will not save your sorry ass franchise. Only a fool would buy the team now its a freakin trap dude. Nicklas Lidstrom is ten times the player of Shane Doan dude. You need to get your shit straight
@BillSteer99 Another thing calling us bandwagon when your team was put into bankuptcy losing 30 million+ every year and now the NHL is desperatly trying to sell your sorry ass team to anyone that would keep the team in Phoenix. Only a fucking idiot would buy that team to stay in that shithole. You Arizona fans are nothing but jealous losers. calling us bandwagoners look at yourselfs you panseys and the wings still have a shot to come back in the series i hope you cry.
@ozzmoises Yeah?? Did you not pay attention to all the sell out games here? Trust me, this is only the beginning. We have prospects coming out our ass. I have been a Coyote fan for years and years, so don't bring up bandwagon. Like I said, next year the Coyotes are going to whip some ass with their fine young talent. Not to mention, Shane Doan is the best captain in the whole NHL. Red Wings younger players are shit, and the older players are going to need wheelchairs next year.
@BillSteer99 say goodbye to your team only an idiot would keep that team in Phoenix and keep losing 20 million plus a year. The Yotes will be the Jets again very soon and btw the only disgrace are you sorry ass yotes fans that keep whining about losing to the wings
@BillSteer99 Red Wings have some real nice youthful players.Do your research first.If I were a Coyotes fan I would be really embarrassed to have all those Wings fans in my building.
No Hossa, No Hudler, No Samuelsson, No Kopecky.... another year of wear and tear for Lidstrom and Chris Nogood... Detroit may make the playoffs, but their days of dominating the West are over.
Oh, by the way, your tears are delicious, want moar plz.
How can you cry about games in back to back nights? Pens had to do it in the Caps series earlier and both teams had to deal with it. Last year's series and this year's series is great for the sport. I'm hoping that one day soon ESPN will get the NHL TV contract back. BTW! Congrates to the Hershey Bears on winning their record 10th Calder Cup! Great years for sports teams in PA! GO BEARS! GO PENS!
u fogot the steelers and PHILLIES now if pa's only bball team the sixers can win! yeah right, time for villanova or pitt to win march madness and we r the best sports state in the country
alecbattaglia, Hockeytown is currently busy celebrating it's 11 Stanley Cups, more than 3x the amount Shittsburgh has, but when those punk-ass Penguins win 8 or 9 more before the Red Wings even win 1 more, maybe we'll actually waste our time with you.
wow shittsburgh, very creative, haven't heard that one before, but i guess i can't hear anything when i'm carrying 3 stanley cups and 6 lombardis, did the lions even win one game last season?
I don't understand why people pin the pushed up schedule on the Pens. That's on NBC because their contract has the league by the balls since they don't pay the NHL a broadcasting fee, and hockey is low on their scheduling priority. If the Wings had beaten the Hawks in 6 or the Pens had not swept Carolina, it would have been pushed back over a week, which was also pretty fucked up. NBC's coverage is terrible in the first place and I'm disappointed the NHL is extending their contract with them.
um maybe the NHL should grow some balls for once and not get pushed around by the tv executives. They shouldnt have moved it up at all in the first place.
I think their reasoning was TV ratings and fear of losing public interest -- the NFL and the Superbowl can get away from a long layoff between games. Hockey, not as much. But I do agree with you, the league needing to grow some balls and not let executives dictate scheduling.
Great series again this year by the Wings, just happy my Pens made out on top this time. It was a nailbiter for sure though. I hope we get to see more matchups like this one in the future, it was some great hockey. Best of luck next season.
We played like shit in the first 2 periods you cant come out in the 3rd period and start playing hockey either!..Face it they bit it man! i mean its pretty bad when the only one to score a goal is Jon Erickson who's a rookie defense man! its like WTF! Where is all the big guns at?
shit you dont even have a hockey team fool why dont you go back to watching your basketball while the real men play hockey. Jwad is obsessed with my nuts you cant stay off my fuckin page whats up cop not giving you enough attention anymore huh little girl.
It was a very good series and the pens just squeaked it out.. no shame in finishing a very close second.
btw: I think both teams will do well in next years' playoffs, although them meeting in the final once again may be a bit of a long-shot. Still, this isn't the end of the rivalry, and it makes for some good hockey. ;)
Pittsburgh just wanted it more. It's just odd how they won on the road in game seven, like Detroit won on the road in game six a year ago. For both teams to make it back is a testament to just how great both are.
