I can't wait until the Red Wings have only one game left to win the cup, so that I can comment about how the Penguins are getting 'Desperate'...:rolleyes:



If you don't get it, check out Beth's team name...

Red Wings in 3. The Penguins are going to quit. :p

Seriously though, while the Penguins have the energy, we have the depth in our defense, and it'll be that depth that gets us the Cup.

LET'S GO, RED WINGS!

Hey, I called the Ducks in 5 last year and got it right. :rolleyes:

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

Uh... if your current location in your profile is the same as it was last year, then that call was correct probably due to you being in the Eastern Conference area of teams, calling a victory for a Western Conference team, thus making it an unbiased call.

This time around however... you live pretty darn close to the team you predict to win... :D

Sorry dude, Wings reach apparent victory in 3, and enjoy game 4 (or 5) with some fabulous show, obtaining victory.

(Then again, this is bias on my end... :p)

Even if you did use my current PA residency as a marker, it would be flawed. For one, I'd be a Flyers fan (which I'm not). Secondly Detroit and Pittsburgh (286mi) are actually closer than Philadelphia and Pittsburgh (305 mi). ;)

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

The Stewie-like voice in my head is going "____ you Google Maps [or whatever]" for the insane trivia of it all... (and truth).

But hey, 4-0 shut out tonight, Wings up 1-0! :yikes:

(meanwhile Pistons lost, but that's so another thread...)

Of course... I'm always better at picking the losers...
Former NY Rangers fan for 30+ years
Hurricanes fan... :(

GO PENS!

-p :cool:

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

I am hoping that the Pens win the Cup, but unfortunately I dont think that they will.

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

Whalers in 4

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

Penguins will win! I'm from colorado so I have to root for them, it's just the natural order of life...:p

Really- Round 1:detroit up 2-0 in series and the 8th seed (Nashville) comes back and wins 2

Round 2:Moving on...

Round 3:Wings blow a 3-0 lead and allow Stars to come back and win 2 games. (WOOHOOO Turco!!)

Round 4: If detroit stuters for a moment then Crosby (4 goals and 17 assists!!) and the Penguins will rip Osgood apart. Of course it can go either way, Detroit has Zetterberg (12 goals and 10 assists) Franzen (12 goals and 3 assists) and Datsyuk (9goals and 10 assists) who will and have done damage to Fleury

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

They have not stuttered yet: up 2-0 in the series, and another shut out @ 3-0.

wOOt!

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

Maltby said it best... the Penguins are getting desperate... :D

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

sid the kid looked like a 1504 in that 3rd period

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

Amazing goal by Maxime Talbot to push Game 5 to overtime...can the Pens pull out this win? I hope so- :D.

EDIT: So they did! 3 OT's! Game 6 is on in Pittsburgh.

Re: 2008 Stanley Cup Play-offs
 

And there goes my prediction... *sigh* The fact that I decided to stay up for all that just really made me mad. I had a feeling that the game was over once that one Wing drew blood for a 4 minute major, and it was... :mad:

That said, GO WINGS! Let's bring it home tonight (with it being the Cup and not game 7).
