Let's Go Blues

I said before the draft that year that the Blues should take Staal over EJ, and no one agreed with me.

The favorite isn't determined by who the higher seed is; it's determined by who the general public expects to win the series. And in this series, they thought it would be Detroit (for good reason, obviously).

The Wings had all their defensive starters on May 28th as well.

The Pens still haven't been able to play D, which is why they've given up 11 goals in 3 games at the Joe.

:lol: :lol: You more than anyone should be a direct witness to the entire youth rebuild the Blues have (nearly) completed this season. For the first REAL time in the franchises' history- this team has built itself around high draft picks developed within in the system. Hmmm... seems like a successf...

That's about what I'm thinking. I'm not expecting a close game.

You are right. The best part of your posts are the end. :roll: Do us all a favor and get the French Tickler out of your red wing hole and let the Blues fans here have a decent conversation. I, and many here share the same sentiment. :detsucks: I'll gladly give you a topic: "The Blues suck and will ...

Is it just me or does Babcock always look like the biggest asshole d-bag in the league? He always has that "I'm better than you" look on his face. I hated Babcock as coach of Anaheim. I love him as coach of my favorite team. He is better than you. He shouldn't be compared to Bowman yet, but he does...

The ONLY thing I had a problem with were the relentless penalties against the Pens in the 2nd period, with 3 of them going in. Now I didn't see ALL of them (partially because there were so many and so fast it was hard to keep up) but I don't like that Detroit's power-play opportunities gave them a ...

Malkin, etc didn't get special treatment and Cambell articulates that clearly. Which is shocking given that Detroit could've gained a benefit from the decision involved and the NHL usually doesn't hesitate to do whatever it can to help out your precious Red Wings. and I jump down the throat of the ...

So I guess the Pens are gonna learn to play defense all of a sudden? I thought your team's defense just lost half of its starters? And if the Pens can score 5-6 goals a game, defense won't be the issue :lol: Wings have all of their defensive starters for every game of the series. What the hell are ...

I would've except you had an end quote tag on it. I figured it was a botched attempt. Red Wings fans have trouble with those tags for some reason. Wrong again, Sherlock. The post with the end quote tag was an entirely different one. The one where I was mocking you has never been edited. Go and look...

The way I see people trying to make a case of this is because there are rules setup and in place but yet some get special treatment over others. Forget who the names are and the teams colors are. Just look at the incident and what happened is what people are trying to say. At least that is my drift...

Damn, dude, overeract much? :lol: :lol: For the record, I'm glad Malkin wasn't suspended. The last thing I would want is for those douchebags in Pittsburgh to have any excuse as to why they lost the series. I was just trying to show you what a colossal toolbag you were being, which is why I respond...

True or False - The Ghey Things won Game 7 by a goal. True. So the Wings were within 2 goals of not being in the Finals at all. This equates to a series being close - the final and deciding game being decided by one goal. End of discussion. Anything else - like discussing prior games is pointless, ...

did YOU read it? Here's what it says genius. Yes, I did. Gone but not forgotten, we've asked for these losers to be eulogized by the people who knew the teams best: The fans who hated them the most. So what? Yet another mistake you made. Why would assume "the fans who hated them the most" are Wings...

First off- what Malkin and Zetterberg did BARELY qualifies as a fight IMO. Secondly, the fight was the result of a scrum in front of the net and much less Malkin pointing out Zetterberg and like chasing him down or anything. They were going at it in front of the net and the gloves came off. It happ...

You can't have the face of the NHL's butt buddy suspended. Rules are rules and he should be suspended. But wait this is the NHL too, after all they allowed Brett Hull to win to a Stanley Cup with his foot in the crease. I don't think its egregious to take the Stanley Cup Finals as a special case fo...

:lol: :lol: Honestly man- shut the f*ck up. The Wings are gonna probably win the cup regardless and I'll likely break something when it happens. If both teams have to do it, it's fair. And don't give me this age differential crap. Tired is tired and last I checked, your team has young legs too. The...

Hey MEG, I'm a Playoff Challenge Champion and you aren't. If you're so GD smart, why the hell haven't you won one?
