Fucking Ott. But this time he did that shit to McCarty. Let's see what happens with that.

3-0!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was hoping the Wings would jump on them in the first period...but wow. No letting up, I want this over tonight.

This is starting to look more like Game 4 in Colorado.

Nike bought Bauer, right? I still can't get used to Nike symbols on sticks and helmets.

Is Winchester ejected?

No, he just went to the locker room because he wasn't going to get on the ice before the period was up since there were penalties on both sides.

I hope Babs doesn't sit on the lead and trap for the next two periods.

I couldn't agree more. Protect the lead, play with a lead, yes. Sit on a lead always leads to trouble.

Fucking Ott. But this time he did that shit to McCarty. Let's see what happens with that.


I think we've all been waiting for the shoe to drop on Ott and nothing has happened.

SHORT HANDED BY ZETTY!

Oh my god does that ever take the wind out of Dallas sails.

We are just deadly when we make them pay on neutral zone turnovers.

Edit: Saw the replay and that turnover wasn't neutral zone, but pretty close and a turnover forced by Flip.

You're right Tahoe, that could be a back-breaker there.

It seems like we're that half step faster than them so far. That half step that Dallas had the last 2 games.

So, are we going to do nothing but kill penalties for the rest of the game?

I'd be fine with it if they were all done to Ott.

Zetterberg is looking pretty sharp today.

Great hit by Drake.

Did I see that graphic right? Dallas has had 2 (as in two) shots in 5 PPs?

Thats pretty shitty.

Is it the whiskey I'm drinking or did the background music in this Dodge commercial sound like NWA's Express Yourself?

Dalls 6 PPs and only 4 shots. OUCH!

Is it the whiskey I'm drinking or did the background music in this Dodge commercial sound like NWA's Express Yourself?

LOL, I didn't hear it.

The Wings' puck anticipation on the Penalty Kill has been just outstanding. Just now you saw three white jersey's either tying up the puck or a man and making the zone a quagmire. Great job.

Dallas has to score 5 more goals than us. Thats quite a task fellas.

Did a hockey announcer, on Versus no less, just say, "the Stanley Cup is in the house" or is it the whiskey again? Is it spiked with acid? That happened in my university in a Halloween party. Made Playboy's best university parties ever. Of course, my bad luck it happened the year BEFORE I attended. Maybe I should be moving this post to the drunk thread.

was Dallas ever not on a power play in that period?

export, Barcelona has Vs.?

I watch it via Slingbox. It allows me to stream US tv, from the satellite box on one of my parent's tvs, to my computer here in Spain (well anywhere in the world actually).

technology is underrated

And while I'm a raving moron drunk, I liked that moment Versus just had talking about the Cup. The only sport that competes with (and I accept the agrument that it beats) hockey in tradition is baseball. Now if someone could have only explained that to that fucking piece of shit Gary Bettman years ago who knows where hockey'd be today.

www.slingmedia.com. I met their VP sales at trade show here in Barcelona. I told him I was without a doubt their biggest fan but at the same time every spring they make my life that much more difficult. And, very happily, this spring has been no exception.

The best hockey tradition is the shaking of hands after a hard fought series.

Awesome sportsmanship right there.

Missed the first period because I was installing my new HD TV. The game looks great now lol.

I 100% agree with you Tahoe. You give it all during the series, you hit as hard as you can and you even drop the gloves (well used to) but when it's over you shake hands and congratulate each other. No other sport in the world has a better tradition.

This is the 3rd 'time to get Ott' period.

Morrow hits Lidstrom...mother fucker. Not time to shake hands yet.

Bobidas scores.

no shut out....oh well

Dammit Tahoe. I've been waiting a for almost two periods to write that.

Edit: I meant the Ott line.

Wings looking sloppy.

And the refs are not helping with the "sympathy" calls.

I also think it's Dallas finally realizing that they're playing golf tomorrow if they don't get going.

I agree with the announcer...not sure why Helm stopped skating.

Give it up to Dallas for showing some balls this 3rd period. If they keep the pressure up I'd like to see Babcock use the timeout.

I would much rather see us score a goal and take the wind out of them rather than having to take a timeout.

It's more satisfying that way.

I stand corrected.

Fucking Dats. Just amazing. First he tried to tie up the puck for a faceoff and then he still got back to get the puck back to his D. All without a stick.

Oh Filppula.........

Is there anyone on Dallas that has made a move on Ozzie? Its like they just go to the slapper.

OZZIE!!!!!!!!!!

^ Ozzie will stop any of their slappers...or most.

Two great saves in a row by Ozzie.

Is there anyone on Dallas that has made a move on Ozzie? Its like they just go to the slapper.

Dammit Tahoe! That's twice you've beat me to the punch. I was just about to write that. In other words, I totally agree.

And then they get a chance down low. But Ozzie's just too solid right now.

LOL @ Dalls...off sides.

If you are up top, blast away. But when you are in close, at least, make a lil juke on the guy.

Then again, who gives a shit what they do. :)

Emptying the net with 2:35 left? I have to say it again, give it up to Dallas for showing some balls. They fought down 3 games and have probably helped the Wings even more to get ready for the finals.

Ozzie coming up big here in the 3rd.

Go Wings!

The Detroit Red Wings are going to the STANLEY CUP FINALS!!!!!!!!!

The Detroit Red Wings are going to the STANLEY CUP FINALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With a hot goal tender

The Detroit Red Wings are going to the STANLEY CUP FINALS!!!!!!!!!

You can write that another 100 times if you want. Hell yeah!!!

Give it up to Ozzie these playoffs.

With a hot goal tender

how nice is it to be on the other side of that fence

Game 1 Saturday at 5pm or 8pm Detroit time. I never liked Saturday or Sunday day games.

and thats a nice lil break. Let the boys celebrate a lil.

how nice is it to be on the other side of that fence

Exactly. At least it always seemed that way.

how nice is it to be on the other side of that fence

:cogent:

Rockin ass.

Not that it matters to me... but how sad is it that the first two games of the freaking STANLEY CUP FINALS are on VS?

Really sad.

I think I'd have to go down the corner bar and have to drink some cold beer there with some friends and eat a big hamburger too while watching the game. :)

Someone told me that all the games are on CBC.
