Boy, the Wings sure kicked Pittsburgh's ass last night. It was probably the first time the Wings showed up all series. That being said, I fully expect Pittsburgh to come out with their best game Tuesday night.

WOW what a game!! What a series!!



The Penguins never led the series until the end! The mighty Red Wings stunned on their home ice! Malkin takes the MVP trophy!

Now the Stanely Cup and the Lombardi Trophy are BOTH in Pittsburgh, and along with the The Commissioner's Trophy all 3 now rest in the great State of Pennsylvania.

I guess that is why they play they game........

Close action, drama, the cross bar in the 3rd, MAF making a couple saves with under 5 seconsd left.

Huge game from Mad Max and MAF. Staal was also great in the shut down role. 6 pack of "Iron City Beer" for each of them.

Looked like Crosby hurt his knee pretty bad. No way he would only take 1 more shift in the 3rd if it wasn't bad, especially in a Game 7.
As we saw it was a total team effort.

Just glad the Wings lost. I wouldn't worry Wings fans. The Wings will be back to challenge next year, and the year after that, and after that.....

What an awesome series. Great call for Sid to take one shift and be there on the bench if for nothing else than intimidation and a little bit of a head game.

As much as I like Luongo, I would have to say I would feel better with Fleury in net for 2010.

He played out of his mind when it counted. Nice to see the Pens get back to the top.
