I think the Pens look better this year than they did last year.... PIcking up Guerin was a better move than Hossa last year... and i think they'll be more of a challenge for Detroit this year than last year.... Overall, they're a better team now compared to last year, and I think they can win it all.... and like i said, it would be damn funny if they did cuz Hossa will still be a LOSER!!!! maybe he'll come back next year!!! lol GO PENS GO!!!!!!!!!!

Very funny you two! (laughing) We canookie women are entitled to change our minds so since my Habs are out and since the Wings' website doesn't have anywhere where I can get a decent picture, I had to pick what I could! and it's only there until the Wings win the Cup anyway!

or a Canook fan, or a Flames fan, heck deep down she loves the Laughs too! Decisions, decisions, how long does it take for you to pick out an outfit mindy?

Unlike some of you guys, zim knows hockey and I'm sure he knows what team is peaking at the right time.

Don't listen to her Zim...she can't make up her mind if she is a Habs fan or Wings fan!...and what's even funnier is that she has a Miller Lite logo in her pic. No self respecting Canadian would go for that stuff. LOL

If Malkin plays the rest of the playoffs with the intensity he showed last night, you may be looking at the '09 Stanley Cup champs.... He played unbelievable, 3 goals, 1 Assist, kind of a fight... and his third goal was sick.... GO PENGUINS GO!!!!

seemed like both teams left the defense at home last night...But Malkin was an animal. I was texting a girl I work with the updated scores because she was at work and my fingers were getting tired after that 1st period.

Geno's last goal on the backhander was amazing. I certainly did not think anyone was going to hang 6 on Ward the way he has played in this playoffs but then nobody thought Luongo would give up 7 in one game either!
Well, they say you don't really have a series until the home team loses so I wouldn't bury Carolina just yet, but if the Penguins go up 3-0 then this series is over!

"If that matchup should occur, my bold prediction is that Sid will at least double the point total of #81 (& I don't mean Satan) in the series." That shouldn't be hard to do since Hossa disappeared once the playoffs started, although it hasn't slowed the team down at all. On the other hand, he did have a very respectable regular season.

Agreed whata. Wouldn't it be cool if we could both run out on the ice and give him the old schoolyard roll (where one guy gets down behind him and the other guy pushes him)...a nice smack to the back of his head on the ice might do him some good.

Thanks, Buzz. I try to bleed Red Wing RED (when I'm NOT bleeding maize and blue). I think a rematch is (a) inevitable (b) exactly what the NHL NEEDS (forget what Buttman WANTS) and (c) exctly what Buttman wants.

the only thing that chaps my ass (pardon being redundant) is that smug a$$hole when he presents the CUP to the winner. I just want to punch his silly looking roung head (but I digress)---yes rematch!!! (is THAT what we were talking about?)
GO WINGS and (can't believe I'm saying this......) GO PENS! (at least til next series.)And YES, I DID set the record for most parentheses in one post!!
Thank you and GOOD NIGHT NOW

Well mindy, I look at it that CT is right 20% of the time. I see a Cup rematch on the horizon. To me, if the Pens are going to win it all, then they must beat the reigning champs (with their former playoff player on the team). If that matchup should occur, my bold prediction is that Sid will at least double the point total of #81 (& I don't mean Satan) in the series.

I think the Pens have too much firepower for the Canes. MAF will give up some cheap goals but Malkin, Crosby and company will make up for it. No knock against the Canes, they have had an outstanding playoff season so far, I just think there isn't enough gas in the tank to advance to the next level.

But you see BB, whenever CT makes a prediction, the other team wins. At least 8 out of 10 times it has happened! I would love to see a Pens/Wings series, with the Wings winning of course!

Sorry mindy but you would be wrong. CT and whata are true Wings fans that would like to see their team in a rematch with the Pens because it is a bigger stage for them if they repeat. Beating out the Canes wouldn't mean quite as much. I personally reciprocate their wishes. I would much rather have the rematch than play the Hawks.

Mopey on the other hand just wants to continue spreading his childish hate.
