      It will be a tighter game. Detroit will still win. Pitt is in trouble. Detroit is way too deep.

        yes and yes.

        Pitt only had 7 shots on goal after the 1st period. I expect that to improve. But how about that Wing defense, wow.

        Franzen back tonight, I wonder how much rust he will have.

              I thought Pitt played well for the first two periods of game 1, I think this one will be closer.

                Detroit is a juggernaut. Period.
                They play smart hockey, they don't retaliate after getting hit (unlike Pittsburgh).

                The Penguins stars are just kids, they cannot handle the frustration of being pushed around by the better team.

                It took Pitt 12 minutes to register their first shot on goal tonight and that was with a man advantage on the power play, plus their young goalie Fleury is not as good as his stats indicate, his team dominated weak teams just like they are being dominated by the Wings.

                Most guys here are looking for the + money line, but it ain't going to happen in Detroit.

                    Detroit just looks too damn strong right now, Pitts in trouble.

                      LOL

                      Really? I saw five Pittsburgh players outside of the Wings' locker room after game one hoping to score...an autograph! Five periods now and ZERO goals from the Pens. The bottom line is that they are too content with being there, they are outmatched on defense, and they cannot even come close to the depth that Detroit has. This series was over before it even started.

                              Wings are far too deep.

                                Detroit -1.5 +170...taking candy from a baby I'm starting to wonder if Pittsburgh will score a goal in the entire series. They are really undisciplined and are taking SO many stupid penalties.

                                  Datsyuk fukked up Gary Roberts. Old duff needs to hang his boots up so he can't cheap shot anymore players. It may just be the death of him some day.

                                        Detroit isn't that deep on forward. They are not near as deep on forward than Pitts. Their D is far superior than Pitts D. I thought you knew your hockey Deuce, but by calling Detroit deep makes me question your hockey knowledge.

                                          7 shots because they cannot penetrate Detroit's D. Detroit outshot them 16-4 in the 2nd period of game 1.

                                            I think that is right Puck. It is their system that makes them seem deeper. Franzen is very good, but Filppula, Hudler, Cleary, Samuelsson just fit into the Wings system. They play it great, and have completely dominated the Penguins. But their forward lines other the Holmstrom/Zetterberg/Datsyuk line are just average.

                                                  Crosby is better skater than Gretzky hands down. Crosby is a very powerful skater. He's very strong on the puck.

                                                      You need to work on your hockey lingo. Substitute boots with blades Pal.
                                                      I guess you're right. On skates at 4 years old and still playing 20 years later I know nothing.

                                                      You're right though, he should hang his roller blades up. Unreal.

                                                        Thanks Pal
                                                        Gold,

                                                        He doesn't know shit about pucks. Crosby has such a better roster than Wayno did his first few years. Gold, puck has his head up his ass. Gold, this puck guy thinks he knows pucks. He sound pretty uneducated.

                                                          was this game even on TV

                                                          what a joke
                                                          Can't pick a winner huh?

                                                          The game is much more interesting when you have a chance at cashing on it, now I know why you make the comments you do.

                                                          PS: If you need help, try checking out the NHL forum, you might learn something, well, maybe not you but someone else.
