the curse of marian hossa contiues, im a wings fan...and that guy totally fucked us int he playoffs. i do like him so if we dont win i hpoe you do so he finally gets his cup but jesus how can you score 50 goals ina season then not hit shit int he playoffs.
2 bad plays? that was stuart not hossa. stuart turned the puck over behind osgoods net to lead to talbots goal and then around the blue line for the 2 on 1 with kunitz and talbot..i believe kunitz..doesnt matter, it was stuart, but again, without hossa, it wouldnt have gone to a game 7 in the first place.
You really believe that there is a curse on him if so you are an idiot. Pittsburgh choked in the last 2-3 games of the finals in 07 -08 and the reason Pittsburgh won was because of detroit's players that played with injuries. If Detroit was healthier they would have repeated.
The injuries was just a testament of the Wings' age and injuries are a part of the game. Pittsburgh won because they were the better team. That has been made apparent with the Wings' season this year. Yes, injury ridden but still show's their age. I'd put money on them making the playoffs though.
Some of the injuries were blatent and some were dirty. Pittsburgh seemed like a more motivated team in the last 2 games because of "the text message". Yes age had a part in most of detroit's injuries, but some were the younger players on detroit.
For wrist shots youre supposed to keep your hands really high on the stick, you slide your hands down for slapshots. Takes practice and it feels odd at first but its the only way to get incredible stick speed and a release that fast.
lilant, do you even play hockey? This shot in particular isn't what I'm talking about...his hands are fairly low compared to usual. Watch him stick handle and take wrist shots, most of the time his hands are only two hands length apart. I play and cant imagine doing that shit with my hands so high...
As a matter of fact, I played 2 games this week already. Funny you should ask. Fairly low? His hands are where they should be, at the top end of the stick for wristers. Practice it before you bitch about it, its how you get leverage on good wrist shots.
if he was even half decent at shootouts he'd be good, but honestly he is one of the worst in the NHL at it.. its not rocket science watch the goof in a shootout its like a novice goalie..
kiprusoff never tries in shootouts, i remember watching some of Calgary's skill competition, and kipper didnt even bother moving when huselius was deking
this was prob the worst video iv ever seen on youtube

Wrong if your team was healthy then detroit would have won the cup and repeated.
