I upvoted both of you. I like the banter.
We will forgive you because you probably root for the cubs too
Probably goes great with your Miami Heat jersey too.
Wings looking very good to start - a ton of good chances. Really need to put one in, though.
Wings need this game badly. If we get a split coming back to Detroit we're in decent shape. The longer this series goes on for, the more I like their chances.
Marian Hossa, ladies and gentleman.
He can't possibly be serious . . .
he must have been joking!
I think he just means relative to the rest of the original 6, the blackhawks don't have much tradition. I think that is definitely a point that could be argued.
toronto has won 13 cups, you could certainly argue they have more tradition than the wings. the only team that is near the hawks is the rangers
more cups than either chicago or NY and the only player who you could argue was better than wayne gretzky (gordie howe is close)
Dammit, they score. 1-0 Hawks.
Smith's play shows why the Wings liked to have their D-men spend a lot of time seasoning in the minors. Perhaps a luxury that isn't available in the salary-cap era?
Everytime I hear a goal is scored it is usually preceded by Smith doing something wrong.
As long as "usually" is replaced with "always."
Letting Hossa go and signing the Mule to a never ending contract will be the major mistake of Ken Holland's career
