Pens or Wings? (a spin on the standard question)?

Question

So which victory will be better for the NHL and the sport in general and why? If this question has been asked already...sorry...if not then answer away.

I think a Pen's win in game 7 would be great for hockey. Everyone loves an underdog story and let's face it the NHL would love to squeeze more marketing blood from Crosby and in doing so might make him more of a household name in the US, thus getting NHL hockey more coverage in the 08-09 season.

Answer 1

From the beginning of this series, I said the Pens would win in 7.  If the Penguins win this series, it will be one the greatest stories in all of sports history.  Having such a young team to overcome the diversity and facing a team with so much experience, the Pens can shock the world.  This series is almost like David vs Goliath.  Pens are the underdog and they proved last night in game 5 that they are just as good as the Red Wings.  Yeah yeah yeah you can say that the Wings outplayed the Penguins all game, but that's what makes it so remarkable.  Fleury deserves MVP of this series as he basically won the Penguins this game.  Stopping 55 of 58 shots?  That's incredible.  The Penguins were also outshot, but it does not matter.  What matters is that the Pens got more goals on the board than the Red Wings.  Not being bias or anything, but Detroit is the better team no doubt; however, Pittsburgh is riding the roller coaster of momentum.  That's why Pittsburgh will win this series in 7, they will fight their way to their 3rd Stanley Cup.

Answer 2

Pens

the 2-0 start in the series and the shutout 7-0 made it not look too good. I really hope the Pens win. Also, the Wings are playing good, and a lot of people were saying they would win. It would prove them wrong. Like you said, we're the underdogs.

Answer 3

i think last nights huge win, and fleury standing on his head, is all they need. no more wins for the pens.

Answer 4

No the pens dont deserve to win because detroit is much more talented. and no matter how much maketing you could get from crosby, its better to let the better team win.

detroit in 7 would be pretty good too.

Answer 5

If Pittsburgh wins in game 7 the headline will be

Golden boy wins Cup, they don't care about Pittsburgh, just Crosby. If Detroit wins the headline will be Golden boy in finals.

Answer 6

pens because it would be an inspiration to other teams as well as people in general to know that they can do it too

Answer 7

PITTSBURGH!!!!!

Answer 8

A Pens win will be good for all sports.  It will be the sport's story of the year.
