GAME DAY: SCP '09, SATURDAY JUNE 6, STANLEY CUP FINAL--PITTSBURGH AT DETROIT, 800 PM ET

Beer> ;-) ...well, there's still this one to play first before any other scenarios become relevant.

Should be one helluva hockey match!

:##:

I think it's safe to say the Wings are hurting... they must be hiding a lot of injuries and the Pens seem to be quite healthy... the longer this series goes... the more this favours the Pens.

Don't worry, everyone is hurting now. You saw the look on Sidney's face when Maltby gave him that vicious two-handed slash to the knee, right? That was, without doubt, the manifestation of the greatest pain a human mind and body can endure.

Or maybe he was just faking it.

Same thing with the walking wounded getting the time off from skating. We don't really know if they are just trying to feint an opponent or, perhaps, draw attention away from someone else.

What's all this talk (here and in the other thread) of Staal coming around? Rafalski was horrible on that play, and Ozzy wasn't much better. He basically went around a pylon and shoveled it at the net. What else did he do in the game? Sure, he had 4 shots, but a third-line centre who dishes out a single hit while winning just 2 of his 15 face offs is *not* coming around.

I say Wings take it.

In other news, Detroit Red Wings anthem singer Karen Newman is getting ready for her Christmas 2009 tour. Video below:

She's got a nice set of..... lungs.... yeah.

Talk about your endowments for the arts. Does she ever do covers of Streisand's classics? "Mammaries, like the corners of my mind ..."

Puck drop is soon... get those beers ready...

Well, puck drop for me will be a little later. Saturday night again, boys are watching Star Trek (they are up to TNG now) downstairs and girls will be watching something on Treehouse upstairs.

Great shift by the Pens...

Atdhe.net to the rescue. Although my newly upgraded Lite (now more filling) is not really helping much with the stuttering video.

Looking for it, but not finding it.

Video completely stopped with about 25 seconds to go in the penalty. Came back when there was 7 seconds left. Where's that CBC web feed?

Found it! Much better.

Nice hit on Malkin by Datsyuk. Looks like he's back playing center. Babcock started him on wing, didn't he?
