Sorry Flyers but element makes a great point here. I am assuming here is being sarcastic.

I didn't bet a lot on Vancouver, just rooted extra hard for them to go far. Just enjoying the series being from Vancouver. The fact is, they were less than 3 minutes from a 3-1 series lead against the Hawks but blew it and lost in OT. Never recovered from it. Too bad. Thus is sports.

Should be a great final with 2 great teams. betting either way isn't crazy for sure. I like the Pens because they are a little younger with slightly better goaltending and they are looking to avenge last years loss to Detroit.

Pens will win this series and not because you say they won't and that is the only 100% guarantee of the final

Until Detroit wins a game in Pittsburgh, I'm not throwing in the towel just yet.

If Pittsburgh wins game three, they find themselves down 2-1 heading into game 4 at home... the same situation the Ducks were in against Detroit back in 06-07 when they won the cup.

Come on blitty... you'll have plenty of time to bump threads later... you've been a hockey fan long enough to know that a 2-0 series lead is not series over. Wait patiently until they lose game 3 or 4.

Deuce · 06-04-09, 10:56 PM

Pens looking like the team to win. Hossa, Franzen, Zetterberg (has been swell), need to get their heads out their asses to win. The cute story about Helm is cute and over with. Those fukks need to face reality and step the fukk up.

No clue, Draper was unnoticed, Leino is Leino, why he is in boggles my mind, why Babcock was playing the 4th line with 3 to go was bazaar, where has Cleary been? Hudler? Holmstrom? These fukks needs to step up. They lose in Detroit on Sat and the series is a wrap.

That's not a valid avatar as specified on the first page.

Also Flyers has to do it.

Man up and pay off the bet.

Seriously dude, what a cop out. I was going to put up a legitimate picture of Chris Osgood if the Wings won.

It's just a week. They came back from down 0-2. Man up.

You mean like Crosby? He couldn't even shake the hand of Nick Lidstrom.

C'mon Deuce this a non story, I thought the Red Wings (and their fans) were above this type of stuff.

Above what? The obvious? The Red Wings would have shaken the hands of each and every player before they hoisted. The Penguins won fair and square just didn't know how to shake hands. Maybe it was emotions, still, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
