exactly Al. You know damn well he would not be asking the ref to do a damn thing if it was in pittsburgh and it was his hattie. The funny thing is that Ove would not have asked the refs to stop it if it was reversed. He would likely just be laughing and smiling like he always is and saying its great for the game to have this happen in the playoffs.

while I think some of Oves hits are questionable, and he gets away with a little more than most, He is an amazing player who plays with heart and loves the game. Ever notice how much you seem him smile out there and how little you see crybaby smile and laugh. I love seeing the little kids at the rink rocking yellow laces. If the kids are any indication in Cali Ove is more popular than Sid by a lot

i was wondering what crosby was talking to the ref about and yeah that's just stupid of him to do

Here's hoping the Wings stomp some Ducks Arse tonight! Keep out playing them and things are bound to get better!:-)

I hope Ovechkin gets hat tricks in Games 3 and 4.....then Sid can ask that people stop burning their Pens jerseys in the stands. :-)

2-0 Canucks. :-)

Not one word about jack-offs comment between 1 and 2. All about the two hat tricks but not one word about the spoiled brat poster boys slap in the fans face.

God I hate him.

I'm with you on that one Al. But I'm not one bit suprised that they didn't say anything about the Golden Boys crying. Real justice will be served when he gets bounced from the playoffs!

we love you too al

Time for the Wings to score a goal.

Ducks take a 1-0 lead over the Red Wings.

You guys are pretty rough on the kid! :-)

I am not a Pittsburgh fan... and not particularly a fan of Crosby, but I can't help cutting him some slack. He is only 21 years old... guess I'm not too old to remember what a putz I was at 21 - full of piss and wind. And I didn't have the hopes of a professional sports team and a city like Pittsburgh depending on me. :-)

My son is 20 and a pretty good kid... but I don't think he could handle all of that pressure - especially with full-grown men trying to take his head off every night. I was such a hot-head at that age, I would have tried to stab somebody with my skate by now! :-)

Gotta say, I enjoy watching the skills he and Ovechkin display on the ice. They both seem pretty immature to me, but I try to remember they ARE immature. :-)


:-)

Hoping the Wings can get a little momentum here. :-)

And hoping the Hawks play a LOT better than they did tonight when I go to the game on Thursday. :-)

best reference ever

I have been a little surprised by the intensity of the Ducks... and looks like the Red Wings may be a little surprised too!

Lot's of shots on goal and a ton of hits... they have been relentless tonight! Be interesting to see if they can maintain that energy level. :-)

The Wings look to be a step or two slow tonight.

PP goal for the Red Wings.

2-1 Ducks.

The Wings just got robbed by the officials on the game tying goal.

All I can say is...I don't even know. Whistle was a tad early.

Must be on the payroll. :-)

Pz they had 2 PPs in the 3rd. They had more then enough shots. One early whistle. Easy to blame the ref. The fact is that happens all the time in games. Sometimes its good for you sometimes its not.

The story of the game and the series is hiller. He has slammed the door.
As hard as it is for me to cheer for the ducks being a sharks fan, I am a sharks fan and thus hate the wings. I am glad the wings are now getting a solid dose of why the sharks only won 2 playoff games. If the Ducks take game 4 the wings are DONE!!!!!!!!!! It will be a replay of the Sharks Ducks.

Easy to blame a ref instead of realizing the Goalie stood on his head and the Ducks D was greater then the mighty Wings offense.
