Let's go PENS

Hossa surprised the Penguins last summer by turning down a $49 million, seven-year offer to stay in Pittsburgh and instead signed with Detroit for $7.5 million and one season, saying the Red Wings offered the best chance of winning the Stanley Cup.

I hope it backfires, what comes around goes around.

The team that wins the first two games of a Stanley Cup Final has gone on to win the Cup 31 of 32 times.

Statistically speaking he made the right move.

hockeytown 2-1

Should Detroit go up 3-1 it could get ugly, Pens look more frustrated as the game goes on and they realize they will again be bridesmaids.

reno cool · 06-02-09, 07:44 PM

Don't know what it's like to be a bridesmaid, but it has to be less fun than playing in the finals.

pimike · 06-02-09, 07:45 PM

Is it just me or is wings seem to just win without playing that well.

Osgood gave up 2 borderline goals. Gd action.

The General · 06-02-09, 08:31 PM

Good match we have here

GL on your wagers. Most all wagers are still up for grabs.

reno cool · 06-02-09, 08:44 PM

sheesh, and the Wings are missing the best player in nhl

nysmoneyman · 06-02-09, 08:46 PM

never thought the under 5.5 would still be alive going into the 3rd when 2-2 was the score at the end of the 1st period

reno cool · 06-02-09, 08:57 PM

you hear Rafalski asked if they need to shoot more? He said no. This is why Det is the best team in the league. They are taught to be patient and make the right play.

Pitt looks like they are hanging on, outshot outchanced etc.

Betting on the Red Wings (especially as dogs) is one of lifes great (and easiest) pleasures.

I can only imagine the feeling in the guts of those who bet Pitt as favourites tonight, yikes.

Not that the Penguins can't win but laying all that juice and being outclassed is not a good feeling.

Enforcer_23 · 06-02-09, 09:20 PM

wow.. 3-2 Pitt

The General · 06-02-09, 09:22 PM

I Hope Pitt hangs on here. Lot of time yet.
