Red Wings didnt deserve to win this one. Their entire D corps must have decided that since Howard carried them last game he'd keep doing it in game 5. Hope Babcock shouts them all into a coma, Erickson, Quincey, Eaves and Smith are just god awful. Not awful in their normal, high achieving AHLers-plugged-into-the-Wings-becuase-Holland-needs-to-sign-another-ancient-player-to-4-million-for-3-years but abnormally awful. O well, I was expecting a pretty lobsided beating from Chicago in game 4 so it came a game late. If the Wings keep playing like its the regular season they will lose in 7. If they play the way they played in game 2-3-4, battle for the puck and stop their a million-turn-over-a-second in their own end then theyll get it done.

That last goal is indicative of the Red Wings effort tonight. Puck goes behind the net, no one goes to take it from Dhaw, Howard takes his sweet time getting back to his crease, Flippula is late to stop Shaw. As long as they play better Monday night im still not concerned. Toews will get to hang out with his best friend Zetterberg all night. Red Wings are fine.

3/4 goals were boneheaded plays. The game winner was scored because 6'3, 223 lb Erickson lost the puck inside his own blue line and then was checked out of the way by mighty Michael Handzus. And I dont mean, he wasnt looking and Handzus hit him with a great check I mean, Erickson literally let the puck slide of his stick and then have Handzus skate strait through him like he was a paper doll but with less density. That should be something that is physically impossible, but as always, Erickson finds new lows in ineptitude almost every shift he takes.

NYR NOOOOOOOOO

i think tortorella has got to go tbh. to have a team with that much talent, with richards, nash, callahan, hagelin, and kreider to name a few and have that piss-poor of a powerplay is pathetic

oh well

hoping the bruins can beat the pens, although i'm not getting my hopes up

I wanted to say a lot of bitter shit about rangers and bruins, but i won't, instead i'll say about my hopes for Pens to crush BOS and move on to play a good final series vs the WCF winner. That one i want to watch.
I would also like to watch Sharks playing the WCF but that Quick guy ...

Especially since the Sens and the Islanders haven't won any cups since the 80's (Sens with 0 cups), yet the Bruins have placed high in the playoffs consistently for the past few years. Just because the former two were knocked out easily, that doesn't mean the Bruins will.

Might be hard if the Penguins force the Bruins to play in their end a lot more. The Penguins have a lot of players with ridiculously good core strength and stick handling, so even though the Bruins D is better. I think the Penguins will work them harder in their own zone compared to lets say the Leafs and we know how that series went. The other thing the Bruins have to avoid is another dry spell when it comes to scoring. I think the Penguins are more than capable of outscoring them. That's the real bottom line. I expect this one to go at least six games. Leaning towards the Pengs obviously.

I really hope cookies has a embarrassingly bad series , and if he has a relapse into dirty play he has a very long time with out a contract to regret it. Between his hit and charas I really pay a lot less attention to hockey than I used to, and I don't want to see something like that happen to anyone again even cookies.

Gotta hand it to the Sharks, I was expecting a pretty epic meltdown from them this game but they showed some real character.

why abdelkader, why take a penalty at such a stupid time. why cant you back to playing non-idiotically the way you did earlier in the series. Well, it was a nice run. But Babcock cant compensate for Ken Holland sitting on his hands for the last 4 years. Smith, Quincey, and Erickson in your defensive corps means 2-3 dumb goals against you every night.

Even though I want Chicago to win, as I have their players in my pool, but man, Detroit is having a defensive breakdown.
Two goals, the Hawk players were just standing there...

Jesus fuck those refs. And jesus fuck Detroit's defence. I'm getting depressed watching this.

If we (Detroit) lose this, I really don't think we can win game 7. Chicago is getting such a big momentum.

Yea, I think Chicago has won the series tonight. Howard would have to pull another Jesus mode, ala game 4 because the defense is too awful and outside of Datsyuk, Zetterberg and Nyquist no one is trying in front. O well, for a year where Ken Holland's brilliant move was to bring in Samuelson and Tootoo it was a good run and I am okay with it. The real worry is that Holland will think his 'strategy' of assembling a bunch of garbage on the defense is 'working' and he wont do what the team needs, add an actual defender and a power forward for Datsyuk because Abelkader ....well i dont know, whatever reason they think having a 3rd line checker on Datsyuks wing is a good idea.

In a way I wish the Red Wings hadnt made the playoffs, then Holland would finally come to grips with the fact that sitting on your hands for 4 years doesnt work, and start clearing up all the old garbage littering the team. But then again, going to two game 7s in their last time in the Western Conference was pretty sweet too. Its just too bad they are going like total punks. Game 5 was awful throughout. As was the third period in Game 6.

Well they were playing good enough to win for the 1st 2/3 of the game. Then all the defensive breakdowns caught up with them and Howard couldn't sustain Jesus mode.

bruins should be able to exploit the penguins' ahl-level goalie and win the series.

I know right? Winning an upset in the first round and then taking the number 1 seed to game 7... What a trash team.

See, this is why having two 7 game series obscures peoples views. It is a trash defense, with only one legitimate NHLer, one potential NHLers and the rest basically AHL guys. Jimmy Howard just bailed it out for 7 wins so far. Had the Wings ended up playing a more defensive team in the first round it would have been a repeat of the Predators series from last year, a quick 4-1 exit.
