Congrats to the Pens!

Being a Stars homer, it was good to see Billy Guerin skate the cup. We asked him to do WAY too much when he was here. The role he plays in Pitt is perfect for him!

I saw more then a few saves that bailed them out. As I posted in the third right before Det scored. I said they were going to score and they did. It was only a matter of time. The reason they didnt score more was largely Fluery.

Well that and that damn crossbar got in the way.

All things said this series was largely who got the breaks on bounces etc. So many of those games were decided by bounces and luck going one teams way or another. In the end the Pens pulled it out, but I dont think anyone here can say that the Wings couldnt and possibly shouldnt have won the series.

Well now I get to look forward to another flame out by the sharks next year. Maybe one day they will get some heart and soul players like other teams have.

Hell of a game.

I must say I'm crestfallen for my mighty Wings. But I give props to the better team this year, Congrats Penguins fans. You guys earned it

We'll get 'em next year guys

That was exactly my point!

It was a good game. The Pens played much better than some of the previous games. As I have said before, other than my wife wanting the Pens to win (who, by the way I kept out on the deck with me enjoying a real nice 12 year old Tawny Port until shortly beforethe only Wings goal

!), I really had no favorite in this series. But, I must say that I thought that the Wings played a better series (just my

). However, just like in so many sports (and some areas of life) it comes right down to the buzzer, and what has happened before doesn't matter.

Sorry to the Wings fans, and congrats to the Penguins!

I didn't think this was possible but you and all the other low life no class Detroit fans have done it. This is an accomplishment that maybe harder then winning the cup since I've hated these other fans much longer then I have you guys.

If you would have read a little farther this what I wrote

"Yes I was kidding It was all in good fun. Had a great time this playoff season chatting with all of you. Time is coming for football season!!"

So before jumping off the deep you should have read that first but obviously you didn't. Maybe you should have kept to your thoughts of not posting on this thread.

I apologize for that just had to get it off my chest!!

Debate ideas if you want. Personal insults will not be ignored.

My hand is out for a celebratory handshake to all Detroit fans. Way to go Pens!!!
It's been a great year of Asylum Hockey.

Until next season, keep your head up and your stick on the ice, my friends.

Class? How about how Crosby didn't even shake Lidstrom's hand. Captain to captain, Sid should have shown the respect. Lidstrom is one of the most respected defensmen and captains in the league. Sid the Kid is just that...still a kid.
