Mike man! The Pens have 3 lines of offense!! The Wings haven't faced that kind of lineup all playoffs,well, the Ducks maybe posed the biggest offensive threat to the Wings but still can't hold a candle to Malkin and Crosby not to mention the silent sniper that Fedotenko has become.
The Wings have Datsuyk and Lidstrom injured as well,doubtful for game 1 too
Plus I have Crosby as my only guy left in my pool for $400 So I NEED the Pens to win!

i hope you are right but the wings are much deeper than the pens
they will inject whatever it takes to make datsuyk and lidstrom healthy, their younger guys have improved
they dominated the pens last year, it was a miracle they won 2 games and now they have hossa who played better than crosby and malkin in the final
everybody in the burgh is predicting the pens to win, i just think it is all wishful thinking
i hope i am wrong but that doesn't happen too often

Gotta give the Pens credit for getting back after they had a horrid season. They needed to get rid of Therrien (I hope I spelled that right) beacuse he held them back. Now they're just being let loose. If you want a good look at how to beat the Wings, study the Ducks. They almost did it.

i think they have a chance, last year the wings completely outplayed them in the first 3 games, it's been pretty even so far
i could see the wings winning in 5, i could also see the pens winning in 7
the refs need to wake up, there shoudl've been a penalty shot when zetterberg grabbed the puck off of osgood's back, and the pens had 6 guys on the ice for 25 seconds
i don't agree with the "throw out the rule book and let them play" motto that many people seem to have for championship games
heck we're still hearing seattle seahawk and any fan that hates the steelers bitch about super bowl 40

Fuck man, Pens looked so good at home, especially the way they turned things around in game 4 and took over but at the end of the day they still gotta win one in Detroit where the Wings are a complete machine. Datsyuk's back which has they're powerplay flying and they're up 5 zip after two. Not looking good. Much like Michael P I was going for the Penguins big time but expecting them to lose because as much as I hate detroit there's no denying how good a team they are. I was starting to believe the Pens might have a chance when they evened things up 2-2 but after watching the first 2 periods of tonights game there's no way the Pens will win. Even if they can win back in Pittsburgh they'll never beat the Wings in a 7th game in Detroit.

Fucking Wings, I'd say Fleury is rattled but then again I can't blame him having offensive power like that coming at him for a solid 60 minutes.Garon looked solid though, I'd go with Garon for Game 6 if I was Blysma.
I have a funny feeling the Pens won't win in Pittsburgh, even though they should... God I don't want to see the Wings win the Cup again...

after last nights debacle, it is hard for me to think the pens will win on tuesday, let alone game 7 on friday
not only did they get their butts kicked, they completely lost their composure and started playing like the Filthadelphia Cryers
i didn't expect datsyuk to be a factor but he had 2 assists
i thought pens had a chance when they tied the series, at this point it just doesn't seem realistic for them to skate with the puck this season
god i don't want the wings to skate on our ice again with the cup, expecially with that pussy traitor marian hossa
with the young star power the pens have i imagine they will win a cup some time in the next 5 years
it often seemed like the best team in the west got upset in the playoffs, just look at edmonton in 06, calgary in 04, anaheim in 03
there's no doubt in my mind these pens would've beaten those teams, including the teams that won the cups those years
it's a shame the pens had to play the best team the two years they made the finals
