HAHAHAHAHA! NO MORE MARC-ANDRE FLEURY! NO WAY PITT'S TAKIN' GM. 5 (OR THE CUP)!

PIM after 2 periods of play: Detroit 2 Shitsburgh 12

:y:

If the tables were turned, I doubt you would see this from Zetterberg.

Aside from Mario, name one player better, without considering goaltenders, which is a totally different thing altogether.

Also, change your fucking status. I dunno, something to like Golfing.

God I just wish it was Tuesday 8PM E already so the suspense of whether or not Detroit wins it's 12th cup on the road, and back-to-back cups, happens as a result of Gm. 6...*sigh*...44 more agonizing fucking hours:(

The guy is an utter head-case. Million times more talented than alomost anyone else, yet he's tempermental and played a soft game far too often.

The NHL must be run by retards. Why are there games going up against the next two NBA Finals games?

Seriously..

How hard can it be to not have a situation like that. Its so retarded .

I'm sorry. Game 6 is going up against game 3 of the NBA finals.


Game 7 looks like it might not be.

Soft? By what definition? He also went into the corners, he carried guys on his back while suffering the most abuse that no other player receieved, and yet he still dominated. Guys tried to knock him around and knock him off the puck, take him off his game, but he kept on trucking. Impossible to do so, just a fucking tank.

He did have a temper, but many guys have one.

Game 6 means more than game 3, and secondly, it's Hockey vs fucking basketball. Hockey being the most exciting sport going, and a manly man's game, while b-ball is played by a bunch of tall skinny faggots who act macho all the time yet cant play because their fucking finger got jammed.

Hockey, you break jaws, seperate shoulders..whatever...guys wanna go out there.

America, and it's white suburban population trying to be so urban and ghetto. Watch some fucking Hockey.

95 percent of america has odd taste.

Also, Canadians dont care what americans watch anyway. Tired of having the game tampered with to suit solely americans who in certain locations will never understand or get the game. They shouldnt even matter.

Americans get the game just fine, or Detroit would have never wrapped up 11 Stanley Cups, soon to be 12, THANK YOU MUCH. I WIN!

lol, that doesn't make much sense, but I like your gumption.

Instead of blaming Americans who you don't think understand the game, why don't you blame Gary Bettman or the players union who both thought they were above the other and drove 50% of the fan bases away when the lockout occurred

I would love to watch the game 6 if it wasnt on the same night as the NBA Finals.

I am not blaming the poor americans. I am blaming the commish(former basketball man) for tinkering with it and being allowed to by anyone else who had a say in these shenanigans.

Hey, Detroit isn't known as HockeyTown from being casual hockey fans, dude!

you're being an uninformed asshole right now. Americans like hockey. But they like basketball a bit more. Now if Hockey Finals and Basketball Finals werent on the same night, Americans would watch both. The NBA finals, as far as I know, has been scheduled for a long time now.

well wehn you walk into an NHL related thread and say Game 6 isnt doable because of some crappy NBA game, expect an assholish response.

I'm all for americans watching the game, or whatever other sport they want to. I get they like basketball. But in a hockey related thread, we are allowed to trash it.

I simply see no redeeming qualities in basketball.

I didnt say it wasnt doable, because obviously... its being done. I said that its retarded to put your product up against another product that will surely gain more ratings on the same night. Thats calle retardation.


DO
YOU
UNDERSTAND
NOW
?

How do you know it wasn't scheduled first? Considering the fact the NHL playoffs, and their finals, got underway before the NBA's?

There's just one thing I don't necessarily agree with you on, RDD. I believe that it should be pretty even for both Finals games, Stanley Cup and NBA, especially considering there's a TON of Detroit fans just hoping to see them be able to hoist the hardware tonight at the conclusion.

It seems as though you are having trouble comprehending something here. I'm all for americans watching and enjoying Hockey, no matter there location or how hardcore or not they may be.
What I do have an issue with is Bettman altering the sport and as a result pissing off the fans that have always been there, and liked the game the way it was, just so that he can try to expand the market, and to appease people who wont necessarily know any better or care that much...to them, Hockey is Hockey. Sadly, he caters to these people and yet they are off and on.
New jersey is a prime example of a market that irritates the hell out of me..winning seasons all the time, and close enough to Canada as is, yet they have trouble filling up half their arena. Then you've got the bandwagon of Carolina, raucous during the post season and yet where are they during the season?
I could care less if Basketball is on at the same time as Hockey. Bettman needs to stop worrying about that shit, because if people want to watch Hockey, they will. If not, well hey, move on, their loss.

I won't watch the NBA, which I know, being from Lansing, MI, and having gone to the very H.S. here in town where Magic played before moving on to MSU and later the Lakers, is practically sacrilege, but I just don't care for the team he played for or the one he founded. (L.A. or Orlando)...:-\

Magic was the shit though.

omg, Scoderi became a god there

Pretty sure I had like 8 heart attacks in the last 2 minutes.

are you kidding me

god, they kept getting the puck, but couldn't clear the fucking thing

Dear Red Wings fans,

http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/1...pensslide1.jpg

Not much you can do when your team doesnt show up until 13 minutes left to go in the third period. Pittsburgh played excellent and with a great sense of emergency

I guess you could say they we're Shitroit?

No. We do not want to hear any of your inconsolable sobbing and weeping when we whip your asses in Gm. 7 for the Cup...:o

Is that the best you got? Seriously?

Please hang yourself if only Osgood shows up to play in Game 7 like in 6. Because I don't want to see your mental breakdown if that happens.

Die Pittsburgh

If the Pens win Game 7, Scuderi should get the Conn Smythe just for that.

Go City of Champions! (even if the Pirates never will rejoin the list of winners)

Good thing you aren't in charge then, otherwise there would be no NHL for these "non-caring" Canadians to enjoy.

Looking forward to Game 7, really want to see the Penguins pull it out and win it in Detroit. I've liked them for whatever reason in this series but after seeing multiple Red Wings getting destroyed by Penguins players in game 6 has made jump on the bandwagon even more.

Whoa, first of all, the charge on Datsyuk was exactly that, a charge.

:D

Especially if -- NO, WHEN -- the Red Wings lift the cup!:D:cool:

I honestly have no idea what are a charge is? I hardly ever watch hockey - just started following it a bit once the playoffs started.

That no-call was a make-up for the earlier no-call of goalie interference.

Consider it even.

So, in that situation, Mr. Shuttlesworth, a player could get a 2 minute minor, a 4 minute double minor, a 5 minute major, or in extremely severe cases, a 10 minute misconduct (with or without ejection from the game, again depending on the severity of the nature of the charge, i.e. if the victim has gashes and blood flowing from everywhere, he's likely to be tossed.)

Can you please refrain from posting pics of yourself in here? There's a Photo Album thread for that...

How about when Zetterberg was thrown in the box for goalie interference, when the Pittsburgh player pushed him into Fleury? Wanna field that one?

Regardless of what happens tonight, It has been truely a great series and one Hockey has needed. Just as last year, I wanna stand up for the Pens fans who get misrepresented in all this. Fact of the matter is this Detroit has the experience and the team depth, while the Pens have the younger legs and star power. I say whoever wins tonight will deserve it. No matter what the bickering between the two sets of fans has been I think we can all agree this will be one for the ages tonight.

IMO if Detriot wins the MVP should be either Zetterberg who has been amazing on Defense of Crosby this series or Osgood pretty much kept them in games where the Pens have outplayed them.

If Pittsburgh wins I know it won't happen but why not give it to someone like a Jordin Stall or Max Talbot. They have as many big goals this series as Malkin does.

Let's Go Pens and lets hope for a great game tonight guys.

If we win tonight, Osgood damn sure better get the MVP trophy. He has been a beast in goal all playoffs long.

my heart is racing a mile a minute.

YESSSSSSSSS FUCK YOU HOSSA

MAXIM FUCKING TALBOT!

PENGUIN SHOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Pretty sweet game 7. First hockey game I have watched in its entirety this year. I really like Pittsburgh for some reason.

:lol: Damninator was WAYYYYY to fucking over confident.

Petr Sykora yelling "fucking right" on live television

love it

Great series. If you didn't watch, shame on you. Only 1 clunker out of the 7 games.





CITY OF CHAMPIONS!!!!!

oh my god, I really can't believe it. I told everyone at work and here that the Pens learned from Detroit last year. You couldn't tell from the first two games, but they fucking went balls out from there on minus the 5-0 loss.

I love it. I really never thought I see them win again after those horrible seasons, but last year was awesome and this was well deserved. Just think this team almost didn't exist anymore in Pittsburgh and now Lemieux gets one more along with the young kids. Great Playoffs, great series. I always say hockey playoffs are the most nerve wracking games to watch when your team's in them and this one didn't dissapoint.

PS: Fuck You Hossa

Watching that close up of Hossa may have made my entire life.

fuck man, Hossa almost gave me a heart attack with that last shot. Fleury looked like a real god dam Penguin with that dive

Let's fuckin dance, people!

http://www.gotomycodes.com/userpics/...h-Penguins.gif

I damn near pissed myself. When the Penguins were piling on each other I yelled "SHOW HIM!" and my aunt asked "who" just as they showed Hossa and I just started laughing uncontrollably.

:rofl: I thought I imagined that.

That's so sig'd. Goodbye Epic Boobs for awhile.

Yeah did you notice how many "beast" goalies the Penguins slaughtered in the playoffs?

So, really, what's better, the opportunity to win on your own ice... or the opportunity to win against a bunch of pricks who never, EVER thought they were going to lose the Cup... and do it on their OWN ICE?!

Oh I would also like to take a few moments to laugh at Michel Therrien for a while.

:rofl:

The answer is, I never liked him.

I don't care either way. So fucking happy right now.

See I'm made of spite so I'm very happy as to how this worked out.

I wish their was a biger picture of this:

http://images.dailyradar.com/media/u...reationrex.jpg

haha, I missed them showing Hossa at the end. I'll have to watch it again

You must have been leaping around in joy too much, they showed him like five times in the first two minutes...

ughhh, yea, lol, I was actually leaping around and wasn't really paying attention. I was texting people too. dam, I need to see it

I'm sure he'll be shown enough... probably interviewed too. :rofl:

Hossa has apparently never read any classical tragedy in his life.

Sidney Crosby is the new Wayne Gretzky..i know its probably been said but he now has to be THE lebron james of the NHL, but is now past him.

Good game, I really hoped Crosby got badly hurt but what can you do.

Fallen Angel, you are a fucking moron.

That hit by Franzen was dirty as hell. Hope he faces some disciplinary action.

FUCK YOU DETROIT

PENS WIN MOTHERFUCKERS

Oh well. We came close, but for some reason Detroit just couldn't dig down deep and actually show up to play tonight. I take little solace in that "maybe next year" crap either right now...just feel like the Wings totally wasted this season.

Although, I must say there was quite a few exciting "opportunities" on goal for Detroit but that's not good enough when you're not scoring on some of them. I started whoopin' and hollerin' when the puck hit the top crossbar like, "YESSS!!!", but quickly got depressed again when I realized Detroit had not scored.

lol@ last 60 replies or so. Zen being really silly, damninator acting like an asshole/fueding with Lara Emily :wtf:, Splaya being Splaya, and knowing that me and Supreme THE DREAM both had the same idea :o

I just wanted to bring this up in case Splaya forgot.

god I hate the Penguins

and based totally on Splaya and Daminator's responses in here the Red Wings too

So check this out. I went to the grocery store to get some celebration food, naturally I put on my Pens Tyler Kennedy 3rd Jersey, one of the guys there doing stock says nice jersey, are you a friend of his? I say sadly no and ask him if he is. He says they grew up together, played hockey against each other. He tell me that growing up TK was dirt poor, couldn't pay for his own hockey stuff, he needed to get sponsors to keep him playing, that he basically worked his ass off to make it into JRs and then to make it into the NHL. This kid literally came from nothing, he never had the best hands or the b est shot or playmaking skills, he had determination, a hard work ethic and the old cliche heart. He just went on the ice and worked worked worked and I swear to you I almost broke down in tears right there in the store when this guy told me that. Tyler Kennedy is honestly just a great story. I am so amazingly happy for him.

Well, you are an Avs fan right? You are supposed to not like the Red Wings :p

I'm watching all the highlights again without pacing back and forth this time. god, Detroit had so many chances and then the one that rolled around on the crossbar :eek:

Aren't you a Sens fan?

Franzen's hit wasn't dirty. Crosby got hurt by trying to get out of the way.

Happy for the Pens.

Pens won 4 out of the last 5 to take the cup.

Come on. Franzen nearly lifted him and drove Crosby's knee into the boards with his.

Apparently Crosby lacks class.
