LETS GO PENS! LETS GO PENS! LETS GO PENS!

**Singel** · 04-15-2007, 11:44 AM

What a great start!!!! This is fun to watch!!!!

**PaSucks** · 04-15-2007, 01:42 PM

Detroit fans don't impress me. Their team is up by two with a two-man advantage and three minutes left and the building empties out. I thought Detroit was hockey town?

**Singel** · 04-15-2007, 01:48 PM

That was mind bottling.

**SkiEvil** · 04-15-2007, 02:03 PM

nothing like back to back games in the playoffs. LET'S GO PENS!!!!!

Fuckin' a I cannot wait!

When you are used to winning Stanley Cups, the last few minutes of a first round game isn't as important as getting to the Hockeytown bars.

So far so good, let's hope they wrap it up in Calgary.

The Wings, again, looked impressive.

**Singel** · 04-15-2007, 05:26 PM

Crosby is dominating the goals disallowed category...

Yeah... Roberts fucked us on that one.

Still has three allowed goals in three games. He is playing great hockey, now if the Pens defense could just do the same.

**SkiEvil** · 04-15-2007, 07:26 PM

Wow, did the Pens lay an egg today. Hopefully they are a little better Tuesday.

You sure do, and it's the Pens. I guess when it mattered yesterday they laid down a nice big turd. Hopefully people will finally start believing me when I say the Sens are a different team. It was a great game on Saturday with the Penguins being fortunate to pull out a win, yesterday was more of what I expect the rest of the series to be.

It isn't choking when you were never supposed to be there in the first place. If the Sens don't win the cup, they choked. The Pens have already exceded expectations. If I were you I wouldn't be extrolling the greatness of this particular Sens team until Alfredson is holding the Stanley Cup above his head.

**BigAirSkier1580** · 04-16-2007, 04:25 PM

Haha, Chris Neil is a douchebag...

He called that hit dirty, and late during his intermission interview.

Wonder he how feels about his hit on Drury in the regular season?

What a toolbox. The hit on Eaves was completely clean, and he still had the puck

How could ya tell. I know I can depend on the Leafs to let me down. Sounds like your cup is half full. Best wishes - it would be nice to see Ottawa succeed. But as has been said, anything less than the cup in Ottawa has to be seen as a failure.

3 Cups in the last 10 years that's fairly impressive. 3 Cups in the last 50 years not so much.

That's true but I have faith. Alfredsson is finally playing like we've all expected him to in the playoffs throughout the years. The fact that this team is much more resilient then in the past also makes me feel better...

All I was saying was this team is different so it shouldn't be cast in the same light as the past failed teams. However, using the "we're not even supposed to be here" excuse is pretty weak. You had the same amount of points (105) as Ottawa in the regular season and supposedly have the next great one in Crosby (who is pretty impressive). Yes your team is young, no that's not an excuse. I wonder if you would be using the same excuse if you were up 2-1 in the series. Anyway, it's been a great series so far (really entertaining games) and here's hoping for another dominating performance from the Sens tonight

fuck that shit. you know how much the Ilitch's charge for beer @ JLA & CoPa?

2 cups for the penguins, 10 for the red wings. make that hockeytown USA, bitch! only the leafs and habs have more and there's no way any of us are going to disrespect our canadian brethren.

**Fritz** · 04-17-2007, 10:14 PM

Fucking go Wild. Now that's the team we saw preseason.

**GBB** · 04-17-2007, 10:18 PM

ummmm......hockeytown usa in Detroit? I personally think not. Wicked pro team for sure, but 90% of the detroit and surrounding high schools couldn't even afford the jock strap expense for a 2 team league. I am biased however coming from the minneapolis area

**Mike LaFontaine** · 04-17-2007, 10:47 PM

Hey Detroit: wha'happened?

**Mex** · 04-17-2007, 10:56 PM

Finally the Flames decided to play. Iggy's 'da man. Hopefully he can keep it up. He always plays well when he's pissed off.

**ICEHOCEY77** · 04-17-2007, 11:21 PM

Preds must win tomorrow in order to possibly keep the team in Nashville. They better come out flying. Also, I'd like to put an APB out for Paul Kariya, if you know his whereabouts please let Barry Trotz know.
