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!!!! :D

    They are going to be tough to beat this season.
    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 :) I hope we win tomorrow 6-0! Chicago will be good for many years with their young talent so I don't want them to win/give us a game anytime soon.

    F the Redwings!

    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 Chicago is smart enough to be able to keep their younger players and with Bowman on their staff I'm just hoping the Wings can stay with them a few years down the line.

    If only Boston would have won!

    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...

    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!

    This should be a good series, Detriot has veterans and Chicago has bunch of rookies. Chicago has come pretty far for a young team, I can't help but pull for them on this series (even tho they took out Vancouver :( ) lol.

    This has been a great revival of the Norris Division. Next season is going to be an awesome fight for the division, especially with St. Louis and Columbus (and even Nashville) upping their game.

    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

    Nice to see Wings fans in Denver, I love seeing them in the crowd when Detroit scored against the Avs.

    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

    2011 ~ Toronto I, Toronto II, Ottawa, Hamilton
    2013 - London, Pittsburgh, Buffalo
    2014 - Detroit

    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.

    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!!

    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.
