Ok well I've never been a hardcore hockey fan. But my first job my boss was a huge Red Wings fan. So I kinda have always liked them and followed them. And now being back in Denver one of my buds out here is a huge Red Wings fan. So I'm back to cheering them on. Yesterday a bunch of us enjoyed the game with a few beers and with other Detroit fans. LET'S GO RED WINGS!!!!

Johan Franzen is playing out of his mind lately. This is shaping up to be another great year. I hope Chicago bounces back and gives us a game tomorrow.
F*** Chicago
Roberto Clemente.
Was a good game until about mid 2nd period yesterday when Chicago decided that they didn't want to play anymore.
Either way, THIS is what hockey is all about!! Blackhawks vs. Redwings...awesome!
It was a kick ass game and that 3 period was sweet.
If only Boston would have won!
Roberto Clemente.
F the Red Wings!
I'm hopin the Hawks can keep this series competitive. I love the experience all these young kids are getting with their 3rd playoff series. This team is going to be scary down the road.
Patrickredeyes, thats a pretty nice bandwagon for you to jump on since theres no hockey team up in Milwaukee...
Hey genius did you read my opening comment on why I am a red wing's fan?
Any team from Chicago I dislike anyway.
Yeah, it's been so much fun watching those "kids" play this year! You're right, the B-hawks...barring any stupid trade or series of injuries...should be good for some time to come!
During the last game, come the 2nd period they had terrible puck control (which is what they've been so good at this year) and couldn't sustain any forechecking. Those two things are going to be key in this series!
That would have been a major bummer if the Ducks would have prevented this classic match-up. I'm glad to see the Chicago fanbase revitalized as well. I know that the ratings don't reflect it, but it feels like hockey is on the verge of a major comeback.
I'm not 100% familiar with everything that the Blackhawk franchise has been through over the last few years, but I was reading a story about them, and it talking about how they have really started to make the team over.
This is great for hockey to have another O-Six team back in the championship conversation.
Yeah I read your comment. Pretty easy to become a fan of one of the top teams in the league isnt it? I was just messin around anyways. I always wondered how you would choose what teams to root for if your city didnt have that particular sport. I'm sure everyone has a diff. story.
I understand your feelings toward Chicago teams. I have some very similar feelings towards the Packers. Don't care much about the Brewers since I'm a Sox fan and the Bucks always seem to suck so I'm not too concerned about them.
We haven't had a pro basketball team in Milwaukee for 20 yrs. hehehehe
And if the rumours of Patrick Roy going to Colorado to coach are true it will be back to hating the Avs with a passion again, instead of currently hating them, like back in the 1990s and early 2000s
2003 ~ Toronto
2005 ~ London, Toronto

2013 - London, Pittsburgh, Buffalo
I agree. I can't wait to see Wah behind the bench as his Av's are getting their asses kicked. He'll just send out the goons for a fight like he did in juniors on his son's team. Av's are definitely grasping at straws trying to keep interest high with the fans by this ploy.
Roberto Clemente.
Jonathan Toews-3 shots -3
The young kids are learning a lesson from some great crafty Wings.
These kids are super talents and I expect them to play better in game 2.
That being said,you have to lose before you can win.
GO WINGS!!
is that exactly what I thought I read."
Always wondered what Bettman's user name was!! JK
Roberto Clemente.
Kinda says something when a guy turns down more money from several other teams, and leaves last year's other Stanley Cup finals team to come to Detroit for less cash. Kinda shows how much confidence he had in Cindy Crosby and the Penguins.
I'm still hoping Wings play Carolina as I think the Wings would have to skate uphill both ways as we know who'll get the calls (cindy) and who won't (holmstrom). I don't trust Bettman. 18 straight years in the playoffs. Winning by spending big bucks, winning by cutting payroll in half, winning by drafting players no one else saw and always drafting at the bottom of the list and Bettman the Bozo says that Pittsburgh is the model team to follow! Go figure.
Roberto Clemente.
Also, Osgood played another brilliant game. All the haters can go pound sand.
That was a real heartbreaker for the Hawks last night. The Hawks definitely outplayed the Wings last night and then lose it on a terrible turnover by Campbell. The Wings are so damn talented that they make you pay anytime you fuck up. Hope we can take 2 in Chicago and turn this into a series.
Faithless? How many years did he play for Pittsburgh? Maybe Hossa just couldn't take the locker room after each game - Syd can we see your ass, Syd how does it feel to be so great, Syd did Detroit cheat to win the Cup, Syd just how awesome are you, Syd are you still a virgin and on and on ad nauseum....
I guess they needed another geezer past his prime for an AARP discount or something - Yeah Bill Guerin's a teenager. Maybe they got Guerin to show Sydney what a woman looks like
As for your prediction I wish I could say no way but with Bettman so far up Cindy's ass I wouldn't be surprised.
Roberto Clemente.
Past his prime? He led the 2008 Stanley Cup championship team in goals this season (he had 40, that's seven more than Cindy). And was near the top in every statistical category. He left Pittsburgh because he didn't think they had a chance at beating Detroit this year. And he's right.
