2. May Williams get the shit beat out of him when he comes back to Detroit.

That was one of the dumbest penalties I have ever seen in the playoffs.

Way to throw the game away, dickwad. :grr:

3. Did the Red Wings lose tonight?

I used to love pro hockey when I was in HS, but now I hate to watch it because they fight too much. Were the Wings eliminated tonight?

[UrbScotty]

4. Yes :-(

10. Oh...

I didn't realize this was about hockey....

[1gobluedem]

12. Boo hoo hoo....

I was so bummed to see them lose the lead then the series.

But the Pistons won!

[UrbScotty]

15. Yeah, go Pistons!

:-)

13. I blame coaching and Shanahan, personally

Williams may have made a mistake, but he is at least a team player. I can't count how many times in the series that Shanny shot the puck right at the goalie's pads, when he could have made a clear pass to another player who had a better angle for a shot. He did it at least 3 times last night. They kept the wrong irishman-they should have kept McCarty, at least he could set Draper up. Scotty B used to be able to deal with his ego-he'd bench him until he was ready to be a team player. Yeah, Shanny would go cry to Mitch Albom and the other reporters, but that never really helped him with the coach. It just made him look like a crybaby.

Also, Ozzie should have started last night. I don't blame Legacy, he's had a great season, but he was never meant to be the playoff goalie. If Ozzie didn't start, they should have put him in after Edmonton scored their first goal. I know Ozzie was injured last week, but he's been on the roster this week.

Congratulations to the Oilers, though. They played extremely well, with a lot of fire. I hope they do well through the rest of the playoffs.
