CS85 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 My "sun setting" was more about this era of the wings coming to a close. The old guard.

Morgan33 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 But anti-Chicago sentiment of every variety permeates the greater fandom, and it still boggles my mind.Fair enough but the overwhelming anti Canucks sentiment boggles my mind too. They've endured 41 years of heartbreak and they didn't win last year undeserving or not so what's everyones problem with them? They lost, its okay people... I can see hating on a team like Detroit that wins all the time.I'm all for rooting ageist the 'Hawks when they're playing a Canadian team, but they're playing the fricken Coyotes. A team whose existence is at the heart of of the NHL's "let's ignore Canada so we can try to make hockey work where it's not going to" strategy.I don't see the problem with pulling the 'Hawks here.I'll give you that, I can cheer for Yotes against a team I don't like because I know there is no chance they will actually go all the way. Plus I feel for Shane Doan.Problem: Vancouver isn't part of Canada.Vancouver is a part of Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninersdd Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Who wouldve ever thought that Nashville would ever take out Detroit in 5? Mad props go to the Preds.

Shumway Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I can't say I'm terribly surprised. Disappointed, yes, but not surprised. The Wings stumbled into the playoffs so I didn't have a whole lot of hope this year.Congratulations, -Dan. Your team still sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charger77 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Congratulations, -Dan. How weird is it that I get "congratulatory" texts from ex-girlfriends when the Wings get KOed? What are you congratulating me for I didn't do it?Actually, I still get a text from a girl I broke up with in 2000 that I haven't seen since 2005 that has been married for 2 yrs lol.

GFB Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Congrats Preds. Hard to beat a team with a great goalie and never makes mistakes. Wings played well and probably outplayed the Preds in three of the games, but when they made mistakes the Preds capitalized. They're going to be a tough out if they continue to play that way.Don't think the Wings are done though. They had around 10M in empty cap space this year. They'll have a ton of cap space and will add one or two real big pieces next year (depending on if Nick comes back) while losing some older legs (Holmstrom, Stuart, Cleary, maybe Hudler). There definitely should be some shakeups for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still MIGHTY Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 The Detroit Red Wings are the first team sent golfing.Last time they lost in the first round was 2006 to the Oilers in 6 games, but the last time the Red Wings were the very first team eliminated was in 2003 when the reigning Stanley Cup Champs were swept by the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim.LATER DETROIT! | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
