I am a Wings hater to the end, but if you can't find some respect for Lidstrom you've got your head up your arse pretty far

Still, I'm happy the Pens won

I haven't posted in this thread since Friday night, but I have read all of the posts since them.

IMHO, this series was outstanding - exciting from start to finish. I always figured it was going to go 7 games, especially with the extra experience that the Pens have acquired since last year.

In the end, with each team winning their games on home ice, this became a 1 game series. I love my Wings, but the better team won on Friday night. There were a few lucky breaks - each team hit the top goal crossbar... the Pens shot went in the Wings shot didn't... sometimes little things make the difference in a game. I have to congratulate the Penguins, and hope my Wings will be there next year again to get the Cup back!

Regarding Crosby's actions after the game, I've read all the comments and excuses, here and on line, but I have to agree with Al completely on this! If Sidney has any cojones at all, he would make a public apology to the Wings and to Lindstrom in particular. I really don't expect that to happen, but that's my personal opinion.

Go Wings!!
