    when will you ever get to say your team won more than championships last year than your football team won games

    The Penguins success will be directly dictated by Fleury. The Ducks took the Wings to the brink due to the force-field that Hiller had behind him (and thuggery), and Khabibulen was doing a great job himself but if your defense lets the other team take 40+ shots your going to lose a few.

    But there is still one game to win before everyone starts worrying about the Pens. As the great Winston Wolf once said, "Let's not start sucking our dicks just quite yet".

    Any NHL city you go to, there is a large number of Wings fans in every crowd. More so than any other team on the road. I went to a game in St. Louis, 1/4 had to be wings fans. Last year in Chi town, it had to be another 1/4 count. In Columbus I bet there are more than half wings fans than the home team.

    Hawks are a write off - the Penguins must go down again !!!!

    GO WINGS !!!

    I do wish the Wings would drop the gloves more,Franzen is 6'3" for cripes sake.
    And Stuart is a good size also.
    Least fighting majors in the league :roll:
    The interference rule is strange to be sure.
    I think you are correct in that the Pens are much better than last year.
    You have to lose to know how to win.

    The only way I want to see the Wings drop the gloves is when they pick up Stanley! :0
    Shit Lilja and Kopecky out because they dropped the gloves and got hammered. Hell the Wings can't fight but they sure can play hockey. Now do I wish we had some young tough guys who could also play for us sure but right now we don't so we'll just have to ignore and win on the scoreboard.

    Lots of Wings fans scattered around out there to be sure but more "road fans" than Toronto or Montreal? Be real.

    Never in a million years does that series go seven.

    Best play of game four- Versteeg grabbing Kronwall's sweater, ready to fight, and Nick just smiling like he just won the effing Cup. No need to fight when you don't need to prove anything.
    That's awesome. It would have been even better if he turtled with a big smile on his face. That's one of his favourite moves.

    Hawks came out hard but a little reckless trying to set a tone.
    Although they survived the first period power plays from the Wings,When Quenville lost it after the shit call on Walker,he lost his team also.
    I mean he flipped out on the refs.
    In the middle of the second,Versteeg and Walker took needless,careless penalties.Zetterberg scored and it was over.

    I just hope for some good hockey games to watch. I'm not a fan of either team so good hockey games to watch is the best result I can hope for. There is no way that you can tell me that these Wings-Hawks games (or any other Wings games these playoffs) have come anywhere close to having the level of excitement of any of the other series this year.

    Man, I looked all over and couldn't find a single video clip or mention of Kronwall ever turtleing...

    I did find this though

    I MOTHER EARTH album cover, huh? Great album cover. You gotta be Canadian. I am too, and let me tell you, outside of Canada, the Wings, for sure, have more road fans than T.O. - or the Habs - no question about it. Now if you go to a Canucks game, or Flames out west, then you'll see a the blue and white put a dent in the Calgary sea of red. However, I've got to tell you, there are more Michigan transplants spread through the states than Canadians, and although you will definatley notice the Habs, and T.O fans everywhere, its nothing like when the Wings come to town. AND, it's always easy to pick out the Toronto fans with those brown paper bags on there head !

    No Lidstrom or Datsyuk for game 5 tonight.
    Another break for Chicago.
    I would expect a more disciplined game from them.
    Maybe a little closer this time.

    GO WINGS!!

    What the hell is wrong with Erickson??? He's out also!

    0-0 after 2 periods. I honestly think if it was game 7 Datsyuk and Lidstrom would be out there but am concerned about Big E. They are playing tonight's game with 4 players that were in the minors this year. Name another team that could do that and still be in the game. Helm had an unbelievable penalty kill shift.

    GO WINGS!!

    Lol -- just busting your balls -- I already knew that Kronwall was a pussy. But he can hit unsuspecting players with their head down though.

    You think? I haven't seen too many Wings away games recently so maybe I'm wrong. I have seen lots of Leafs and Habs away games and I know that there are always tonnes of those fans in the crowd.

    I've seen the Leafs and Habs play in Minnesota a few times and there were always a large contingent of Leafs/Habs fans there -- I think that I knew most of them though.

    No paper bags here but I hate to admit that I was a Toronto fan for a night -- but only because I was at Maple Leaf Gardens the night that Domi KO'ed Ulf Samuelson with a clean sucker punch and I happened to be sitting in an entire section of Blueshirts fans -- that was a fun night.

    Only saw the Wings play twice -- once against the North Stars and once against the Jets. They were fun to watch back then. Saw Keith Primeau and Tkachuk drop the mitts in a 1-0 Jets win. I saw Yzerman and Federov dismantle the North Stars for 7 goals -- and Jon Casey still got 2nd star.

    Missed most of the game tonight -- saw OT. Congrats to the Wings. May your crappy style of play bring forth many Cups.
