Red Wings

Last ditch effort - change the avatar.

My only hope now is that when the Penguins do their rounds with the cup that the Detroit fans that watch it are graceful in defeat. Do not embarrass the city, please.

[Chuck Cunningham]

I still say its not over.

[Sharkbait]

Still not enough shots.

If we get beat, we get beat. If the blind eye is turned againt us, then I am pissed. Goal on a no - call icing? Poster boy not getting the holding call. I counted at least 5 no-calls. And these are the best referees in the league????

[chemiclord]

Astonishingly enough... I don't feel bad about this. I was expecting to be irate if they were losing.

But... let's be honest, the Wings don't deserve to win this game right now. They don't deserve to win it, and I'll actually be kinda sick if they do the same thing in the third and luck into a win.

They've got twenty minutes to change my mind, but they're really going to have to gut it out and play as hard as they have all season.

[Chuck Cunningham]

IF they lose, its not so bad, you've seen the Wings win, it would be much harder if they had never done it.

The calls seem a little one-sided, but that is playoff hockey. The Penguins are taking advantage of it, and the Wings don't seem to be.

1/3 game of hockey left. Come on, Wings!!

[Chuck Cunningham]

That's the spirit! Hang in there 20 minutes is a long time!

I know what you are saying Chemi, but the easy & obvious stuff is being overlooked. All 4 refs were looking at the no - call icing and none called the OBVIOUS penelty. Cost us a goal, 1-0 sounds better than 2-0.

[chemiclord]

Not long enough when the team you're rooting for has yet to come back from a two goal deficit these playoffs.

Granted, they haven't been down two all that often these playoffs, but these guys are like Tiger Woods... incredible when they have the lead, but don't expect them to come back often.

The icing was a bad call, but even worse was the terrible attempt by Stuart to clear.

[Drew]

THey called that one.

I like your lady friend Rock...

About the only thing to like about this game.

How do you explain this? You had two days off between games 6 and 7. No one should look as tired and worn out as the Wings have.
