Pittsburgh with 7 defencemen tonight.
- Thread starter deslicher
- Start date
How many times did a Wings' forward chip the puck into the corner from the blue line, skate around the defenceman, and beat him to the puck?
Wings are rolling four lines, Pens can't keep up.
I thought Wings in six - but at this rate, Pens won't even win a game.

He's definitely due, that's for damned sure. Poor guy doesn't get any respect whatsoever, even though he's a great goalie. This will be his 4th Stanley Cup, and once he gets the Conn Smythe, maybe he'll finally get some respect?
...
he is an average goalie on a great team...
I will say he elevates his game in the playoffs, but that said he is at best an average goalie...
he had a horrible regular season...
and before you tell me, "but it's the playoffs that matter"...
if the team in front of him had the kind of regular season he did, said goalie would have been on the golf couse two months ago...
they won despite him, not because of him...
Detroit is in the driver's seat, no doubt...
but this series is far from over...

With Detroit's big guns shooting blanks in the finals, I think it has to be Osgood for the Conn Smythe. Not bad for a supposedly average at best goalie, eh?

your team hasn't been one or had one in perhaps 10 to 15 years...
BTW, they just hired another retread coach...

Any particular reason you're being such a f'ing asshole?
Or is it just not enough roughage?
I picked Canucks because I am a pretty big Vancouver Canucks fan. I will cheer them regardless what position they are in.
But I honestly thought they had a really good chance on making the cup finals and winning the cup.
I've watched him play since junior hockey and he's pretty average all right.
Currently tied for 10th all time in regular season wins. 15 back of none other than Grant Fuhr who we all know didn't benefit from a great team in front of him.
7th all time in playoff wins. Just passed Jacques Plante who played on some pretty crappy teams.
4th all time in playoff shutouts.
And I'm sure Brodeur's numbers would be a lot better as well if he wouldn't have had to play on such a defensive team with a couple of average D-men named Scott playing in front of him.
this Wilde Trackie just lovin' the bashing, aren't they? well, they deserve if they somehow support this team when there's tons of questions to be asked...otherwise, you and I wouldn't be pointing out the obvious.
Guess when the BW & CH are just so engulfed in the Nucks' stupidity, the management's colossal mistakes...the Sundin signing is even worse than the Oilers' signing of Penner, at least he's got AT LEAST 5 more years in his career; Sundin will be lucky to even play 5 more periods w/o huffing and puffing back to the bench
Did you BW see his tongue hanging out panting during the playoffs?
