Wow. I was surprised that anybody on this site cared about hockey, and now I see there are TWO!

What's next, curling?

And Mythmod, if you are so sure about it, why didn't you lock the thread?

just-the-facts...

Everyone is entitled to their opinion - even if it's wrong *wink wink nudge nudge*

MythMod

I suppose we all have to make allowances - after all, you are from Michigan.

"Know what I mean?"

Look, buddy, don't make me sic Kwame on you, ok?

lol

MythMod

In the finals Crosby and his team will destroy Osgood

Hm, much as it galls a Minnesotan, I'll throw in my octopus for the Dead Wings.

octopus??

go wings!

St. Paul is really Hockeytown USA, but Detroit has been Octi-town USA, since 1952.

Ah, yes... the Octopus. Gotta love it.

BTW... regardless of who throws it, his name is "Stanley" - the thrower gets booted out of Joe Louis Arena by security, but usually has time enough to buy an SRO ticket and get back in while the game is still being played (depending on how long they wait to chuck good ol' Stanley onto the ice.)

As an expatriot Minnesotan i have to go with the Redwings. What is this Dallas Stars nonsense?

I have to say Red Wings.

Badgolf, thanks for the link -- I'd seen the Stanley Cup playoff commercials on TV, but couldn't figure out why they showed an octopus.

As far as the topic goes, I don't really follow pro hockey, so I'm just cheering for good games.

Just-the-facts, I'm not a big hockey fan, but my wife is, so I have to be one by default.

It was fun to watch the Penguins shut out The Flyers last night.

Now that it is down to Detroit and Pittsburgh...

In all likely hood, Detroit will win, but I expect Pittsburgh will make then work for it. Who knows, they may even win, stranger things have happened.

Um, no. Also, not to pile on but is Malkin even suited up in the Finals?

Red Wings.

i am so mad the ducks did not make that far they did have the best gollie last year lya Bryzgalov with three consecutive shut outs the second person to do so during the play offs first was in 1945 frank mccool but the duck still rule

I thought the Red Wings had it last night, until 35 seconds to go!!!

Let's see how tomorrow's game goes.

My best guess is whoever scores the most goals in 4 of the possible 7 games... Just a shot in the dark though.
