I enjoy watching the Red Wings... but I am hoping that the "Cardiac Canes" can pull off the upset win for the Cup - assuming they can get past the Penguins.

I agree with the Hog on his first sentence. He rooted against an original six team playing a bunch of CT exiles from the south. Their original fans were freaking Yankee fans. Good luck to both the Canes and Hawks ( but is it a bad thing if I root for a Hawk to put Walker's face through the glass?). Can't root for the Penguins. The only time that I have rooted for a team from that city was when the Steelers played the Colts.

Ouch.

I still love you anyways, Paul.

well apparently you didnt watch the sharks series. We have more than enough scared players for the whole league.

That was the reason for shipping Jumbo Joe out of Boston

Any Team can have Jumbo Joe as long he is not on the Bruins.

Bruins In Five

I know. When he got traded it was oooooooo the sharks fleeced the bruins. Now its "wow I guess thats why the Bruins let him go so easy". I keep thinking Wilson was refering to Jumbo when he kept saying "There will be Big changes during the offseason."

Got to wonder. I would not mind seeing him go. I got to imagine there will be a few guys on the market. Those that dont move will likely be on the shortest rope imaginable.

No matter what happens in the playoffs, Sharks got the better end of the deal. I can see why they let him go for basically nothing, but without that trade, who knows where the Sharks would be right now.

I wouldn't mind seeing him go at all, and would rather see him go before Marleau. I think Marleau plays to his ability in the postseason, while Thornton has the potential to completely change the dynamics of the game, and doesn't. I also don't see Marleau keeping the C, which I don't think is a big deal for him at all, in fact he would probably rather NOT have the extra pressure.

That first overtime for the Wings/Ducks game was exciting. Refs kept their whistles in their pockets, but that is expected. I can't believe the Ducks are getting so outhit. Wings did prove my point to go high on Hiller though.

jonharky · 05-03-2009, 05:45 PM

What a disappointing day here in Detroit to lose in the 3ot to them ducks. its not over though!!

icehog3 · 05-03-2009, 06:25 PM

I think James was going to the Wings game today, tough way to lose 6 periods in. The Wings will need to steal home ice advantage back in Anaheim.

Yep, there for the whole affair. Outplayed them all of OT. Just couldn't get one in the back of the net

. Great game and no worries. We will at least split in Anaheim. Go Wings!

I wouldn't be worried either, James. I think the Wings will take the series.

The only 6 period game I ever attended resulted in a Hawks loss, obviously many years ago. They cut off beer sales halfway through the 2rd period, so by the 3rd OT I was just ready for it to be over, win or lose....of course, that game was a 7:30 start, so it was a bit later.

The Wings will get it back Tuesday.

bugmenot · 05-03-2009, 08:56 PM

I thought the Wings outplayed them completely in the OT, as well as during the 3rd.

Ward just made a series of 3 amazing saves during a power play! Bruins have seemed flat today. I would say this isn't a good thing for the Bruins, as it gives Ward, and the rest of the Canes a lot of confidence.

icehog3 · 05-03-2009, 08:59 PM

Ward was amazing on those saves!

icehog3 · 05-03-2009, 09:01 PM

6 on 4, Boston's last chance tonight.

05-03-2009, 09:03 PM

Canes played a heck of a game.

icehog3 · 05-03-2009, 09:05 PM

Yup....'Canes didn't look "scared" tonight.
