gigapixels Veteran Posted June 13, 2009 Veteran Share Posted June 13, 2009 (Y) (Y) (Y) I may be an Avs fan, but I'm truly happy for the Penguins right now. Besides, as an Avs fan, I'm obligated to root against the Wings :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/759272-nhl-2009-playoffs/page/4/#findComment-591129886 Share on other sites More sharing options...

R-Flex Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Let Malkin hold it! Veterans first, not that spoiled, unsportsmanlike, whiny player who I had hoped would never hoist the Cup. He takes stupid penalties, plays poor defense, and takes cheap shots at the end of games where he is losing. I cheered for Detroit, but I am still happy to see such an incredible series, and an incredible Game 7. Hockey is alive and well. I was disappointed to see yet another arena boo Gary Bettman, dampening the great spirit that permeates the Cup ceremony, but it was great to see those faces. Conversely, I hate to see the Wings on the bench with those faces of supreme disappointment, but the Pens deserved it. They outplayed the Wings in the last two games, with Fleury, Scuderi, and Talbot with the big plays that won the Cup. It wasn't Crosby or Malkin, but a Pens team that won that Cup. Those last second heroics were fantastic, even for someone rooting for the Wings. We couldn't hope for a Game 7 any better, barring an overtime period that mirrored the great play of the first three periods. Well done, Pittsburgh and Detroit!

Konstanov Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I can never look at Detroit the same way again..... I have no more feelings toward you as a city, just nothing.

R-Flex Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 For anyone watching the CBC feed, was anyone else confused about that guy talking to Rob Scuderi? The one who was yelling about how Scuderi's hard work had paid off, and that's why he was a champion? Who was that? It didn't sound like a coach or trainer as it did a drill sergeant congratulating his charge.

Deathray Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 The end was painful to watch simple due to Hossa swapping teams and losing I was rooting for Detroit, but I'm happy Crosby gets to hold the cup... it was nice to see him come back to play in the third period. He was hurt, but still tried to play Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/759272-nhl-2009-playoffs/page/4/#findComment-591130060 Share on other sites More sharing options...
revvo Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Funny **** for Hossa. He'll probably give up and change leagues or professions :rofl: Let Malkin hold it! They did it by seniority. If they had to do it by skills, it would make sense to hand it to the goalie, and then the players. For anyone watching the CBC feed, was anyone else confused about that guy talking to Rob Scuderi? The one who was yelling about how Scuderi's hard work had paid off, and that's why he was a champion? Who was that? It didn't sound like a coach or trainer as it did a drill sergeant congratulating his charge. Yeah, sort of like a motivational speaker from the army that the Pens worked with? The best was seeing Fleury talking and said ****, then you hear the guys in the back laugh out loud.

Fred Derf Veteran Posted June 13, 2009 Veteran Share Posted June 13, 2009 For all the people saying that Hossa made the wrong choice, consider this: If he had chosen Pittsburgh then perhaps Detroit would be hoisting the cup. After all, Hossa didn't have much of a impact in the final round.

revvo Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 The best part of the night Most people were already cheering and showing their respect to the Pens when the Cup was presented, but everyone cheered the second Lemieux lifted that cup again.
