I'm glad pitt won over the rangers, but it was kind of hard to watch. I mean grew up in Pittsburgh and watched Jagr along with Mario take the pens to two consecutive cups! So, I wanted the pens to win but at the same time I wanted to see Jagr score in his usual unbelievable shooting!

Jagr sold the penguins out long ago Mesk..... Myself being a Penguins fan I could NEVER root for a rival like the rangers,or the Devils....DEFINETLY not a Jagr rangers!!!!!!!!!!
It would be like a Wings fan going for Coloraldo,or a Flames fan rooting for the Oilers.
I definetly would go around the strrets of Pittsburg and talk such insanity.I like you Mesk,and dont want to see harm to come of you,but your walking on a double edge sword there bud.

That's why I'm posting it here in secret!! Jagr DID sell out when he left, but that does not take away his amazing play (like a true super star) with Mario in the cup years and a few years after that. He is the best. I remember seeing him down at the strip district (not that kind of strip) and bars and clubs. He's alright.
But now its Malkin and Crosby who are like the old Mario and Jagr. Those kids rock!!

Malkin's on fire. I can't watch the game from Milan (during my trip), but saw the highlights on ESPN.com. Pens 1, Flyers 0 (series...not score)

Yeah, Pens and Wings in finals would be awesome. I see that Dallas sneaked one in last night forcing a game 5 against wings.

It looks like it will be the Wings and Pens. It should be a good contest. I'm looking forward to it.
Go Wings!!

uhhh.. well both wings and pens gotta make it out of this round first. Philly won last night.. :(
But the pens will kill the wings. right now pens have 2 of the best players in the world (malkin and crosby - just incase you did not know) :thumbs:

I know I am talking to myself here, but the Wings won to set up a Wings-Pens final!!
Funny thing, we moved to Pittsburgh in 1979 and that year was the last year the Steelers won last of their 4 superbowls (yes I know they have 5 now, I'm getting to that). I was 9 years old. I followed and followed them my whole life but they never won in 27 goddam years. In 2005 I moved to Dubai, AND THEY FUCKING WIN!!!!
Then in 2007 I moved to Florida and now the Pens are winning. Maybe I was just bad luck for the sports team in Pittsburgh.

This is going to be a great series.
The problem will be, who should I watch? Pistons or Red Wings.
This is great for our state, since we've had so many economic problems.
Go Red Wings!!
Go Pistons!!

ESPN is predicting that the PENS will be just too much to handle for the Wings.

Was it Barry Melrose? He's had a bug up his butt for a long time, when it comes to the Red Wings. I don't know if he has ever picked us to win anything. But, that's all right, we don't what mullet boy behind us anyhow. :thumbs:

The Wings won the first 2 games.....they are gonna lose their asses at the away games though.

I don't know, Michelle. The Wings are looking really good. I think the Pens may take 1.
MichelleG.
05-28-2008, 04:56 PM
yes they are and I hope they don't follow the same pattern they have everytime they make it to the finals. They play away games and get their asses handed to them. Then they come home and win some more.

Wings are home again and have a 3-1 lead. If they win tonight it's all over.

Yep that's what happens if a team is up 3-1 and then they win. Very observant.
just kidding.

WOW! Pens tie it with 40 seconds left. That was really intense.

oh holy crap....I went to bed when the game went into second OT last night. Woke up and read that the Pens won it in third OT! :@@:
What a game.

Yeah, I stayed up and watched all three OTs. Crazy! Awesome game..just awesome...and exciting.

false hope there Mesk... Pittsburgh is just delaying the inevitable. They have a marque player,but they are up against a marque team... They had a great season though,they should be ashamed about anything. they will be a powerhouse in the NHL
If your a football fan,then dont give up hope. Steelers are a lock for the division if the Bengals defense doesn't get it together early on. (doubtful) the browns are done before the season even starts (sorry Carbon) and the Ravens are a few years from being any kind of force

Yeah good final game tonight, pretty much came down to the last second. I don't like how the Pens play the "dump and chase" offensive style. Whereas, detroit carries the puck in. Anyway, good games!!!
Also, Malkin will become a "marquee" player as you say in addition to Crosby.

I have really payed attention to Pittsburgh this year during the playoffs,and i agree Malkin has developed to a very high caliber player.
Have Pittsburgh remain a Stanley cup level team for a decade and they can enter 'Marquee' status like the Wings have rightfully earned.

Both teams played good and both deserved the cup.
Now.....to gloat. :D
The Wings won....the Wings won....the Wings won!!!!!!
O.k,I'm done.
Theres a parade going on in Detroit this morning. I pity the people who have to work there and are trying to get to work with all the road closures and traffic from fans who have been heading there since 6 this morning.
