Detriot

This series is over.  I have never heard of a team who lost the first game 4 nil and came back to win the cup.  Now its two games down.  OUCH!

Detroit is beatable, but not by this Pittsburgh team. They had too easy of a ride to the finals, and the players are at a lost when the other team can match up to their top players. Very dis-hearting hearing them talking about excuses and not how badly they have been outplayed and still step it up in the next game.

Based on the first two games there is no reason to believe Pittsburgh will come back.  I can see why Detroit has empty seats because they are so very boring to watch.  Oh how miss that Flyers/ Capitals series.

^^^Nope, my love for Pittsburgh franchises doesn't go beyond the Steelers.  Unfortunately I'm a Leaf fan so there is a Vineyard's worth of sour grapes there.

Pittsburgh will come back.  ???  Okay, only ONCE in the past has a team come back from two down to win the cup. 

1971  I think.  See link below.

If the Pens doesn't smart up and just play hockey, they will be playing for the cup in a different way.

I missed the first 2 periods of the game, and the flow of the third period was very good. There were a good 5~6 minutes when the ref just let the players play, great end-2-end action. And no comment on the reffing ... very questionable at times. I hope the next few games will be like this.

This was good hockey to watch.

Not at all like watching the Leafs do their dump it in and chase it routine. :-\
