Forums - General - NHL: Thread for the 2009 Playoffs

Sigh. If only the Pirates didn't suck.

Oh, well. City of Champions, again.

Edit: Can I claim the Phillies' World Series win? No? ...sigh.

Twice this postseason they've won Game 7s on the road. First NHL team to do that - maybe the first North American team to ever do it.


Championship game 7 forgot that part.



WOOOOOOOOOO! Pens ****ing win it in Game 7 at Detroit! In your face, Hossa!



Also, all three Pittsburgh teams have won championships in Detroit

1909 - Pirates def. Tigers in World Series
2006 - Steelers def. Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl
2009- Penguins def. Red Wings in Stanley Cup Finals



Fuck Pittsburgh. Detroit came inches from putting it to overtime with Kronwall's shot.

The one good thing to come of this is Crosby can finally shave that sorry excuse for a beard he has.

Coming close to tying the game just doesn't cut it does it? Detroit lost. Glad to see Hossa get fu***ng burned, now he looks like a total idiot

The Red Wings deserved to lose tonight. Their play was lackadaisical until the 18 minute mark of the 2nd period. To be outplayed like that in game seven of the Finals on home ice is inexcusable. Their attitude and play was similar to that of the Pistons the past five seasons. They played exceptionally well...until it mattered most. That they are resembling the Pistons is consternating.

Also, how Fleury recovered from game 5 is remarkable.



ALL RIGHT PENGUINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

you've gotta love Miroslav..  I thought I had heard something to that effect but I wasn't sure.  He finally got his first cup.

 

Absolutely incredible, the third time (of 15) that a team has won game 7 in an away game.

'64 and '65 were the other two right?



I have to admit that the Penguins winning came as a surprise to me.

It just looked like the Penguins wanted it more. The Red Wings started off very slowly.
