Great hockey great series. Congratulations Wings on an awesome season. And congratulations to all of he teams that made the playoffs.
I wish the Pens wouldn't have waited until the last 2 minutes to try and tie up the game. I thought they were going to score on that last play!
I was happy to watch the wings players skate around with the cup though. Even if I am a die-hard penguins fan. They played a great series/season and deserved the cup. Looking forward to next season. (I sure hope the Pens can keep Hossa!)

Congrats to the Red Wings and a valiant effort by Pittsburgh. I'm glad the series ended up going deep as I feared a sweep after the first two games in Detroit. I think the young kids on Pittsburgh learned a lot and they should/could be a formidable force in the East for a few years.
Mike Babcock does seem like a pretty humble and classy guy and he's a good coach. He made some smart forward adjustments during the course of Game 6 that made a lot of sense.
I also feel good for Osgood. He doesn't get much respect, but he definitely got the job done this year.
That was a pretty entertaining series after the first two games. I hope a good number of people tuned in to watch Games 5 and 6 in particular.

Hard to believe he's won three Cups. A goalie doesn't win three Cups by accident.
I think the Pens will win multiple Stanley Cups with Crosby leading that team.
How old is Sergei Gonchar? He's getting up their in years isn't he?
If so, eventually the Pens will need to replace him with someone of equal or better talent to win even with Sid the Kid.
Example: Look at the guy who wears #5 for Detroit. Lidstrom is the difference maker for that team - no doubt about it.
With Pittsburgh being a serious Cup contender, there will be no shortage of players wanting to go there. I think they'll be able to replace Gonchar when they have to.
But yeah, take away Lidstrom and the Wings don't win four Cups.
I am always happy to see the Cup skated...brings tears to my eyes every time.
My Hawks are going to take a run at Hossa I beleive. He would go well with Marty Havlat.
Hossa is an unrestricted free agent?
He'd look mighty nice in a Montreal Canadiens Sweater!

Kingbee - you aren't a Blue Jackets fan? 
Blue Jackets? Is that a team?Kingbee - you aren't a Blue Jackets fan?
Been a Pens fan since I was a little kid playing street hockey. I was distraught when there were talks of the Pens team moving. I thought I was going to have to be a Blue Jackets fan.

And if Dallas had not lost to Detroit...yadd yadda blah blah blah...
actually no, just if the ducks had beat dallas my prediction would have come true
