Love watching Don on the video.
At least the remaining games will be on regular old over the air broadcast TV.
Go Detroit. Go Wings.
Lopsided series? All the talk from the "pundits" (definition #3) was that Pittsburgh will win the series and Detroit has no chance of stopping the kid, just maybe if they are lucking they can slow em down. No I ain't no big fan of the Flightless birds. I'm not a big fan of the East. They are sort of like the National League, there's just something wrong about them (Toronto excepted for obvious reasons- obvious if you've followed hockey for more than 10 years). Just wicked damn cool that the Wings have gone up two zip. Kinda sad that they had to do it on VS, not NBC.
I love this quote:
If there is a silver lining to this darkest of playoff clouds, it's that the Penguins have yet to lose on home ice this postseason. The bad news is this same Red Wings team is going to follow them home.It makes me chuckle.
I am dreading a repeat of the Dallas series though. That mid-series stumble that puts fear in the fans' hearts but joy (and money) in the network and league office's.
This is the stanley cup. THE STANLEY CUP.

...i've been saying it for a while, but the way the red wings have played the team game this year, is quite amazing...a smothering defense balanced w/ their typically precise offense has completely stymied & shut down what would normally be seen as a very great offense in the pittsburgh pengiuns...
...so far it's been like a hockey clinic...the wings are backstopped by supposedly "the worst goalie to ever win the cup", a rather disingenuous term once applied & now w/ the cage minder's two shutouts in the first two games, hopefully retired forever...
...i'll be foolish enough to say that the 'pens' if they're as good as they have the potential to be, will probably get on track & on the score sheets in tonights 3rd game but can they win or will they waddle off into ignominy ???...
...either they win tonight or it's over...the wings are too solid to give up four in a row...the puck is in pittsburgh's end but the ice is tilted against them...
...tonight should be a serious ass hockey game...
...post script...& the splendiferously coutured don 'grapes' cherry, resplendent in his magnificence, is always worth the price of admission, even if he is a little, ah, 'over the top'...
...just sayin'...
splendiferously coutured
that's him...
i got spoiled there in michigan when we got CBC... Hockey Night in Canada. It didn't matter who was playing - that's how Hockey should be watched....
