PItsburgh Penguins 2009 Stanley cup Champions Thread
Lunatic:
It's simple with the Crosby hate..same way in every sense of entertainment..compare it to Hip-Hop, 50 Cent was most hated when he was at the top..now Lil Wayne is, and he's fuckin hated..the ones who receive the most SUCCESS have the most haters, always.
Shallow:
MTL, no one is taking personal attacks at you. The only personal attacks were by Crosby to the back of that guy's head. He could have ended that guy's career with that shit. Yes Wayne and Mario were babies when they started. There's no way around that. You get what you want when you want your whole life it takes while to learn, but as the Captain's of their team, and as the face of Hockey they made sure they were at the front of their teams during the handshakes (maybe not THE first guy but with the team). Why? Because in Canada we don't tolerate anything less, unless you're the only Canadian mega star in an era dominated by Europeans. That's what I hate the most. The media protection of this kid's blatant disrespect. If all he did was whine a bit and not get hit that's fine. But he wants to be a tough guy when no one is allowed to touch him and then he wants to jump around the entire time the rest of his team is shaking hands. And take credit for a win in a series he was useless in. Like I said, Hossa stays and Guerin, Satan, Gill etc never come and it's Wings vs Hurricanes. The young guns were not the reason the Pens went this far. It was the old vets. But the Canadian media is trying to create a hero and role model and this kid isn't it. Not yet anyway.
teecee, fuck Chelios. He's not the Captain or the face of the team. He's an old coot who can do whatever he wants. If Stevie Y did some shit like that then you'd have a case. But Steve was all class. Chelios is a goon. If you're best argument is comparing Crosby to Chelios you don't have much of an argument. This kid is enjoying the benefits of being thrusted into the Hockey hierarchy because Canada's got no one else and he's taking advantage of it, and I just want these goofs to call a spade a spade. When he fucks up and does something like almost kill a guy by rabbit punching him as he's face down on the ice, he needs to be put through the ringer. You ignore that shit enough and you risk creating a monster and someone could reallt get hurt. And I respect this sport too much to get behind a punk like Syd Crosby when he keeps getting passes.

You asked me how old I was then you seemed to clarify that you are not dissing. How am I supposed to see that as anything other than an insult and clarification?

He was just wondering if you were old enough to remember a certain time, etc.
Anyway, you really think that the Canes woulda made the final? Be real man. The CAPITALS woulda beat the Canes easy- did you watch the Caps-Pens series? A classic, and the most hard fought series of the playoffs (along with Wings and Ducks). To say the young guns didn't do shit is plain stupid, so I have to call you out on that. Crosby had more goals in ONE series then Holmstrom, Hossa, and Datsyuk in the entire playoffs! IT was EPIC...
Talbot, Malkin, Crosby, Fleury, Stall= equal "young guns"
If they aren't the reason the Pens won the Cup, then you officially don't know shit. ;) Ask the Wings what they thought of Talbot and STall in the finals. They played better then nearly every Wings forward not named Zetterberg. Malkin had 8 points, and Crosby played a good two way game but was mostly kept off the score sheet due to a great game plan from the Wings.
You almost sound like NIK with all of this"media" bullshit! Oh well, its all good, your team lost. Besides, you are a hockey fan so that is all good in my book.
Shallow, do you have a personal vendetta against every hockey player who has made a dirty play in their career? Crosby, overall, is far from dirty so to single him out is kinda laughable really. "Almost killed a guy" is the best part. Quit reaching. Does it have something to do with the fact that his team beat your team?!
Your team is the WINGS man. Best organization in hockey. Gonna have mad chances to win the Cup so don't worry so much Crosby.
