PItsburgh Penguins 2009 Stanley cup Champions Thread
Shallow:
Teecee, you're only reiteratinng my point. Detroit beat themselves. I'll give credit to the blocked shots. Pit played decent D but none of that would have mattered if the Wings simply played like they were supposed to. The passes were off and the shots were rushed when they didn't need to be. It's like they were nervous, which doesn't seem possible since they were all there last year. Osgood outplayed Fleury every step of the way in this series. It's not hard to save shots aimed at your chest when no one is around to get a rebound.
How many times this series did you see a Wings forward with time to spare shoot impulsively at Fleury's chest? It was pathetic.
Cleary had the break and shot a half assed backhand into the pads. (he was also homerun slashed to the arm while doing it but whatever)
I just want someone in that organization to tell me why after game 6 and the huge missed opportunities and lack of chemistry Babcock didn't go back to the winning line 1 of Zetterberg, Holmsrtom and Datsyuk? Hossa wasn't setting up shit in front of the net. He'd be better off with Cleary.
Yeah, the young guys are all coming back, but the young didn't do shit when it counted. It was all the old vets trying like their lives depended on it to win that cup and all of them are probably gone by next month.

It would of been one thing for him to lose in the finals to say Boston but to lose against Pitsburgh and to come up scorless... ouch

That's pretty obvious isn't it. I brought out my 1996 Mike Vernon Jersey for nothing.
That being said; oveer the years when Detroit is outplayed by a better team I can admit that. When they fuck up themselves by screwing around and lose to a lesser team, that's when I get upset.
MontrealCity's Most:
A lesser team tho?? realy ? I mean i think these two teams are pretty equal since detroit won last year, pitsburgh this year... will see if they showdown next year.
And why cant the Nhl open with a Detroit Vs Pitsburgh prime time game on say a wensday night top kick off the Nhl season .. that would be great.
