Congrats to the Wings. You can do it! Win lord stanley. What was Detroits worst play in these semi-finals?

Question

The Only horrible play I have seen by the red wings (and Ive watched almost all the playoffs with all of the semi games) was when they had a 3 men advantage. Red wings had a 2 man PP and an empty net and they could not score. They did not have a lot of time, but it was so funny to see them not score. I think not scoring on a 2 men is bad, but not scoring on a 3 men is just abysmal. Who though the reds really should of scored? (not teasing)

anyways I hope the reds beat the pens

Answer 1

The worst play {(not by Detroit) Mc Creary is anti- Detroit)} of the semi's came when the ref's disallowed the 1st goal in game 4, (Homer in the crease, I think not) so the NHL could keep making TV money and give Dallas half a chance. Obviously the Stars needed more that just that goal called back.  Nice start at home in game 6 Dallas.  Maybe they would be more competitive if Jerry Jones bought the team.

Answer 2

Penguins Bias, Not only are you slow in having the Red Wings score a goal a game for the first four, you have a 1-1 tie for game 2! You have got to be the non-smartest person i know.

As for the question, i would agree with bleacherbrat above me and say when they disallowed Datsyuk's goal because of Holmstroms' butt over the creases plane!!!!

Answer 3

Pens bias - you really think the pens will get 30 shots against Detroit? Surely you can't be serious. Detroit holds most teams to roughly 20 shots a game and that's not likely to change. More than likely, it will be Pittsburgh that's facing 30-45 shots a game.

As for your little comparison.. Even though I don't agree with all of them, I will give you that the pens have great individual talent. That does not mean they make a better team (example: Yankees). Detroit plays as a unit.

Also, what gives you the idea that Conklin is going to start? MAF has been outstanding. So unless he gets lit up in the first 2 games, Conklin is not likely to see the ice except during warm ups.

My pick is Detroit, but it should be a h**l of a series regardless.

mrt - I don't think those are scores for the game.. they are the scores for the series

Answer 4

Penguins > Redwings

Crosby > Lidstrom

Gonchar > Dastyuk

Hossa > Holmstrom

Malkin > Zetterberg

and most importantly

CONKLIN > Osgood (never mind fleury CONKS is better!)

Sure Osgood looks great when he faces 15 shots a game, and he should since he is an NHL goalie wait til he sees 30 shots and gives up 4-5 goals...

Pens win in 6 games

Game 1 Det 1-0

Game 2 Pens 1-1

Game 3 Pens 2-1

Game 4 Pens 3-1

Game 5 Det 3-2

Game 6 Pens 4-2

Mark it down.

Answer 5

the worst play was when Holstorms BUT was in the crease,,,

Go WINGS!
