Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 12 May 08 - 09:06 AM I dunno what cameras they use; in the TV feed slo-mo I thibnk it was clear that the puck was in the air over the line. But I do not know if that is the same footage they see when they review. Whatevr-- every game has bad calls, in every sport. The main thing is to keep scoring. But BIRON knew the truth and it's bound to work on him as he anticipates Game 3. :~) I think they'll be looking to hurt Malkin, if line changes don't let them spring Briere loose from the big guy's shadow. Or win at least one at home and then hurt Malkin in Pittsburgh to keep Briere loose from him. That seems to have been the one thing they could not overcome-- Therrien kept sending Malkin out on every Briere deployment, and Briere couldn't get any room. ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Texas Guest Date: 12 May 08 - 12:50 AM You know, from my viewpoint - which was probably the same as yours, the Crosby "non-goal," in tonight's game was really a goal; I mean, once the puck got up on its side, which it was - it was over the line - totally. As most of you know, I'm a Red Winger, and there is no favorite here, but that was a goal. They must have had visual static or something in Toronto. GO RED WINGS. Cheers. |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Texas Guest Date: 11 May 08 - 06:12 PM When I got home from the gig the other night and presented the Game #4 tickets to my wife she just looked at them like they were gold and then she said, "How cool, we get to see the last game of the series." I looked at her and said, "Baby, that would be a sweep,..." and she shot back, "Yeah, I know, isn't it cool?" I'm not sure if she knows something I don't, but if she does, I will certainly accept it. gnu - you're right, I am lucky, very lucky. Oh, yes,...GO RED WINGS! |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 11 May 08 - 01:04 PM They don't cancel church services or diocesan conventions, either, but thank God the dead VCR resurrected. :~) We've not been taping Wings, but that could change if needed. Certainly WILL change if Pengwings meet in Cup Final. I tape the local pregame show, the game on whatber network has it that we get, and then back to local for post-game. Total Recorder for NHL Radio works, too, then dbPowerAmp to convert .wav to .mp3. Hockey games on an MP3 player's a kinda fun way to take a long road trip. :~) (I will probably run that for the Final if the Pens are in it, as well as the videotape.) ~Susan |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Texas Guest Date: 10 May 08 - 03:18 AM Well, just got home from a gig with Jed Marum so I did not get to watch any of the Eastern Conference game; BUT, KELLY AND I SCORED TWO TICKETS TODAY FOR GAME #4 - RED WINGS AT THE STARS - for Wednesday, May 14, which just happens to be our anniversary. WOW! GO RED WINGS! Cheers. |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 09 May 08 - 11:24 PM Burrrp......... I'd given up beer due to gastroentestimal "issues," but anything for our Pens, really...... I know it helped them, thankyouverymuch.... ~Susan |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 09 May 08 - 12:59 PM My step-son walked out of the house he was so upset - he just could not believe that his mom, a native Texan, was cheering for the Red Wings; then, when the Wings got up to 3-0 in the second period he just couldn't take it anymore and he left. Love love LOVE this imagery! Oh and BTW-- GO PENS! ~Susan |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Texas Guest Date: 09 May 08 - 12:35 PM Whoa! Very, very nice game at the Joe last night. My step-son walked out of the house he was so upset - he just could not believe that his mom, a native Texan, was cheering for the Red Wings; then, when the Wings got up to 3-0 in the second period he just couldn't take it anymore and he left. I cheer for two teams - the Detroit Red Wings and the University of Notre Dame - and there is no quarter given, period. I've gone through some down times with the Wings and all the Golden Domers are going through a rough time now; and, you know, somewhere along the way you learn that it's just a game - get excited, spill your beer, get hoarse (unless you're a singer)have a lot of fun but go away knowing that you'll awaken in the morning with folks still dying in Iraq, folks still starving in Africa and the rent has got to be paid. It seems I needed to get this off of my chest, so thanks for the space folks. Oh,...by the way,...GO RED WINGS! Cheers. |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 08 May 08 - 10:25 PM Hm, I kinda doubt it, but then I wasn't sure they'd blow out the Rangers, either. I'm just swooning over the Flyers-fun that comes next. (Get your Batman TV-series BAMs and POWs ready. We're working on the sound effects.) Whatever, it will be a great coupla weeks, eh? Then hopefully the Cup finals. And then it will be over till October. [sniff] The Pens website has a GREAT archived series, "Inside Penguins Hockey," that the local FSN station produced. All 20 episodes arcived for those long, lonely, strangely-warm (hockeyless) days of summer. Player interviews but also, more significantly for us, week by week recaps of the week's highlights and team newsworthy matters, with a voiceover that puts it all in the context of their overall season strategies. A march to the Cup, captured in digital video, we hope. F***in historical, man. :~) Do the Wings have something like that in their site? ~Susan |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Jack the Sailor Date: 08 May 08 - 07:46 PM I am picking Pens and Wings for the Final. The Pens are really strong. It should be a great final. Maybe they will win it. |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 08 May 08 - 04:40 PM Geeze, do I gotta keep poor Lord Stanley on the day's page all by myself?!?! Where ARE you hockey fanatics! Love the Conference Finals primetime-only schedule-- no more late nights from our time zone, some weekend afternoon games outside church hours, and one game per day. Here we go-- Visitors @ Home Arena, Wings first: Thu May 8, 2008 Stars Red Wings 7:30 PM ET Fri May 9, 2008 Flyers Penguins 7:30 PM ET Sat May 10, 2008 Stars Red Wings 7:00 PM ET Sun May 11, 2008 Flyers Penguins 7:30 PM ET Mon May 12, 2008 Red Wings Stars 8:00 PM ET Tue May 13, 2008 Penguins Flyers 7:30 PM ET Wed May 14, 2008 Red Wings Stars 8:00 PM ET Thu May 15, 2008 Penguins Flyers 7:30 PM ET Sat May 17, 2008 Stars Red Wings 1:30 PM ET Sun May 18, 2008 Flyers Penguins 3:00 PM ET Mon May 19, 2008 Red Wings Stars 8:00 PM ET Tue May 20, 2008 Penguins Flyers 7:30 PM ET Wed May 21, 2008 Stars Red Wings 7:30 PM ET Thu May 22, 2008 Flyers Penguins 7:30 PM ET GO PENGWINGS! Love the Stars, but Wings is Wings. ~Susan |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Texas Guest Date: 06 May 08 - 10:48 PM Pengwings - now there's a refreshing term. GO RED WINGS! Cheers. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 06 May 08 - 10:06 AM I think the break is too long. But I guess its because the series's were so short. I would bet that the NBC contract has a lot to do with it; they will have wanted to be sure to capture a "marquee" game for the weekend-only rights they bought and ad time they sold. ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 06 May 08 - 08:55 AM Dallas is a very good team, and we love 'em.... and they ARE having a peaktime right now..... but I think Wings in 5 or 6, and 7 would not surprise me. GO PENGWINGS! ~Susan |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: Beer Date: 06 May 08 - 07:02 AM Tex. What Say's I?? "What a Crock of Shit". Bring Dallas on. Truth be I have no idea how good Dallas is as I haven't seen them play once. However you don't get in the finals being on your ass so I guess anything can happen. But I say Detroit in 5. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Texas Guest Date: 06 May 08 - 01:14 AM Well, after the four-OT victory for the Stars last night the DFW talk show folk are saying that Dallas will beat Detroit in the Western Conference Finals because they're on a roll and peaking at the right time with all of their "big guns" chipping in to get the job done. Another interesting analysis: the Hockey News Stanley Cup "Final Four Preview" has also given the edge to Dallas because the Red Wings haven't played anyone, they're not tough enough, their front men are not as good as Dallas, Turco is better than Osgood, and the Dallas power play is better than the Red Wings. Hmmm, I was hoping to see the Wings beat the Penguins in the final round, but it seems my guys are supposed to lose - what say you? GO RED WINGS! Cheers. |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 05 May 08 - 11:14 PM Loooongggggg evening without hockey.... Hardi sez this is when the NHL starts weaning us off of it for the summer. I dunno..... still some AHL and ECHL rounds going.... ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 05 May 08 - 09:23 AM Sharks are out, so it's Dallas and Wings for the West. Pengwings, I like it.... at our house a nickname for the Pens has been Pengalings (one of the kids coined it at the zoo), but GO PENGWINGS! ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: gnu Date: 05 May 08 - 05:24 AM Go Pengwings!!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Jack the Sailor Date: 04 May 08 - 10:30 PM Pens and Philly should be entertaining, I think the Pens will win in five but some of the games will be close. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 04 May 08 - 10:16 PM Just finished the videotaped game, YAY! Thanks Beer. Bringon Biron! ~Susan |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: Ref Date: 04 May 08 - 06:37 PM Went to Philadelphia this weekend to visit relatives,all fierce Flyers partisans. My eight year old nephew wanted to know my allegiance. I pointed out that I'm a Bruins fan to the core and that little pleases me more than seeing Montreal lose. We had a GREAT time last night! Philly v Pittsburgh should be wonderfully entertaining. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: Beer Date: 04 May 08 - 05:17 PM Well Susan. Here's to your team. May they play Detroit in the finals. That would be a heck of a final but were not there yet. Go Penguins, Go Wings" |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: Beer Date: 04 May 08 - 06:04 AM Thanks Big Mick. I have that site in my favorites and go to it all the time. Well the Phillies did it but the Canadians have a very promising team and next year who knows, maybe a few notches more. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Texas Guest Date: 03 May 08 - 11:47 AM Big Mick - thanks for the link there. I had to work Thursday night but they did have the game on at the pub. As it turns out, I wore a Red Wing sweater and hat and the pub manager came up and complimented me on my attire - turns out she's a big Wings fan. I didn't get to see much of the game but everytime I looked up the score seemed to change; and, obviously, it left me quite happy. Concerning the Stars, however - that game should never have gone into overtime - officials be damned - end of story. GO RED WINGS!!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: Big Mick Date: 02 May 08 - 09:08 PM Beer, you have got to see the replay. Zetterberg scored an incredible backhanded goal. You should be able to see it at that link. The Wings were just burying the puck at will. Scored a couple of them shorthanded. RED WINGSGOAll the best, Mick |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: gnu Date: 02 May 08 - 03:27 PM Go Habs go! Er... Get going Habs! Oh well, may as well get an early start... Go Wings Go!!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: Beer Date: 02 May 08 - 03:12 PM I wasn't feeling great last nigh so went to bed early. What a great treat to wake up to a 8-2 victory for Detroit. How sweet it is. Go Wings Go |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 02 May 08 - 01:16 PM Yeah, we do too (Pens)..... It really ought to be fated that we play the Habs next, since they booted Therrien. :~) I'll be out of town the next little while and back in time to see the Pens game. Best of luck to everyone! GO HOCKEY! ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: topical tom Date: 01 May 08 - 10:35 PM It's okay, Beer. Now we have them where we want them(i hope...).Say, just in case I lose my wager with Beer, does anyone out there know where I can get some moustache wax? |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 01 May 08 - 10:17 PM Our boys faced wily men, several of whom are comtemplating retirement-- just, not tonight. :~) The discovered how to screw up the clustered-sniper pattern; I'm not quite sure how they did it myself, system-wise. Actually I thought the NYR deserved to win the last game, so it did not surpise me that they sucked it up and came out hard and smart. Sunday's rematch will be quite interesting. GO WINGS! Cannot stay up for all of it, sorry, ~Susan |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: wysiwyg Date: 01 May 08 - 12:24 PM Numerous summaries are avaialable at team and NHL websites. Other than that, it was classic playoff hockey as far as I'm concerned. :~) ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: GUEST,Freddie The Fog Date: 01 May 08 - 10:03 AM I understand that the game listed below was conducted as scheduled. Anybody in a position to post the result with a concise commentary? << Canadiens (#1) vs. Flyers (#6) Gm Result 4: Apr. 30 @PHI, 7:00 PM EST >> |

Subject: RE: BS: Lord Stanley's Cup From: Beer Date: 01 May 08 - 09:34 AM Oh my, don't look good tom. Don't look good at all. |
