RedRenesis Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Wow... You might as well get ready for the rematch between Detroit and Pittsburgh in the Stanley Cup Finals.My only question is this: Can the Penguins stand toe-to-toe with the mighty Red Wings?I think they can. Going through a repeat of last year is something this group will categorically refuse to go through again. It will be fun to see just how much the Pens have learned since last June. The Pens would match up better against Chicago but I would rather see them earn it against Detroit. Also I would love few things more then for Hossa to get that close and be denied, especially if it happens against the Pens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy B Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 The Hawks played terrible today, and it was getting embarassing with all the dirty penalties they were taking. You could really see their youth showing today, except for Toews, I think he showed why he is deserving of being their captain. It's going to be almost impossible to take three in a row from Detroit, so bearing a miracle, I'll be pulling for the Pens to win the Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They rarely seems to make the wrong choice. I wish the Leafs or any of the hand full of my top 3-4 favorite teams followed "The Red Wings Model". However, even though they are a few years away I feel that they are on the path to become serious contenders.-Dan PotD May 11th, 2011looooooogodud: June 7th 2010 - July 5th 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Now THAT would be interesting. Now as for the playoffs, I'm really pulling for Chicago to come back. I really don't want to see the Red Wings in a position to win yet another Cup, plus I think it's good for the NHL in general if the Finals looked different each year. Realisitically though, it'll be Pens/Wings II. Go Pens!I agree. They rarely seems to make the wrong choice. I wish the Leafs or any of the hand full of my top 3-4 favorite teams followed "The Red Wings Model".Getting the team under the ownership of a single person, ala the Red Wings, rather then a multi-headed corporation would help. Which is why I think if Balsillie fails to buy the 'Yotes he should just put an offer in for the Leafs.

The_Admiral Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 They should shorten the regular season and start the playoffs before April, that will make the playoffs end sooner.Start the season on the 1st of October, and start the playoffs as close to April 1st as possible. That the NHL wraps up right at the same time as the NBA, which starts almost a month later, is kinda silly.That's not ironic at all; it makes perfect sense. When your team is the Toronto Maple Leafs, you have to find alternative avenues of expression. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonas1111 Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 The NBA can play more games in a shoter time do to the lack of energy needed during basketball games compared to hockey games. That's why they end at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
