- inactive, on 06/05/2008, -11/+143Best sport ever.
- castevens, on 06/05/2008, -10/+1224th Stanley Cup win in 11 seasons. Very impressive.
- HA5TY, on 06/05/2008, -10/+116wow.... Pittsburgh almost tied the game up at the end.
It was a great series... - thomasnikl, on 06/05/2008, -30/+90Zetterberg > Crosby.
***** YES!!! - wuchadwi, on 06/05/2008, -4/+52Congrats to Dallas Drake!
- HA5TY, on 06/05/2008, -2/+47Bettman's a *****.
- tehdave, on 06/05/2008, -6/+47Hey Hey Hockeytown
- czernel, on 06/05/2008, -19/+55GO WINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!
- mackdaddy187, on 06/05/2008, -12/+48Amazing series and a somewhat predictable outcome. Congrats Detroit. ( ๏ )( ๏ )
- inactive, on 06/05/2008, -0/+32Dugg for random set of ***** at the end.
- Jaakob, on 06/05/2008, -2/+32Pitt's 2nd goal with under 5 minutes was badass. Such an intense game, gotta love hockey playoffs. Crazy ending too, puck trickling in front of the net as the buzzer goes off. I was looking forward to a game 7, but congrats to the wings, series well played.
- georgemason01, on 06/05/2008, -9/+39Game 5 was a huge letdown but I'm glad they wrapped this up after several playoff collapses in recent memory. I held my breath until they won it, and wasn't surprised Pittsburgh almost got a tying goal in the last few seconds.
As a Wings fan I thought it would have been nice if Osgood won the Conn Smythe, but he lost it for himself after last game. Zetterberg deserved it, that guy is an amazing player, I'd argue the best overall in the NHL right now. - harryterry, on 06/05/2008, -3/+33Great cup series. Both of these teams deserved to represent their conferences, but Detroit's experience won it for them in the end. Game 5 was one of the greatest cup games that I can remember, and especially for Fleury. The kid played great but Ozzie and Detroits defensemen couldn't be stopped :)
GO REDWINGS!!!! - dimmerswitch, on 06/05/2008, -6/+34I thought Pittsburgh would put up a better fight but they're a young team. Big things to come from them.
- afx114, on 06/05/2008, -1/+28Game 5 was EPIC. Almost repeated it in Game 6 with that last 0.5 second puck-flying-through-the-crease play.
- MikeonTV, on 06/05/2008, -8/+35Go Whalers!!
- Dgen_X, on 06/05/2008, -3/+26Think I saw tears in Bettman's eyes...thought he was going to award Conn Smythe to Crosby
- K7Avenger, on 06/05/2008, -4/+26I really don't know what to say. I watched this amazing team grow and evolve. I watched them play in the winter classic and win I watched some great trades take place and see a ***** amazing team come together for the playoffs. They may not be the best team in the league but they had the most heart and gave us a great season. Can't wait for the next one. Go Pens
- MrMike69, on 06/05/2008, -1/+22Malkin finally showed up for this game, a little late...
- Jarulf, on 06/05/2008, -4/+23I can't think of a team this season who deserve it more.
- PeTeRZz, on 06/05/2008, -1/+19 GREAT GAME A++++++++++ WILL WATCH AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- eaglered00, on 06/05/2008, -0/+18at least one team in Detroit isn't underachieving
- FrankFutter, on 06/05/2008, -1/+19Take that Tiger Woods!
- Liquidfire3240, on 06/05/2008, -9/+27From a Nashville fan, I say congrats to all the Red Wings players and staff, job well done, you guys deserve it.
- Mwinwood, on 06/05/2008, -3/+20Agreed. As much as I wanted my Pens to win, the Red Wings play smart hockey. They absolutely deserve it. Plus I think half of the pens team would get underages if they would of won.
- dimmerswitch, on 06/05/2008, -8/+25Congrats boys - job well done!
- WNW3, on 06/05/2008, -12/+29HOW ABOUT THEM WINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- powlol, on 06/05/2008, -1/+17agreed. As a penguins fan its a tough pill to swallow. Three inches away in that last tenth of a second and... oh well... next year...
anyway, congrats to detroit, great season and playoffs - juicycutlets, on 06/05/2008, -3/+19Congrats Detroit Rock City!
- edemerton, on 06/05/2008, -1/+16I don't remember being so emotionally engaged last time the Wings won the cup... these were some CRAZY last few games. Triple over time, and of course the puck dancing inches away from the goal line at the very end. I jumped up and down and cried. Simply amazing, guys. Amazing job, and hats off to both teams!
- Schmidtopolis, on 06/05/2008, -0/+15my Gawd, look at those *****.
- lansuggs, on 06/05/2008, -0/+13Pssh, I've seen better dynasties...
/Oiler fan
jk. Much respect for both the Wings and Pens. Grats to the winners! - WordsnCollision, on 06/05/2008, -2/+15Great to see the grizzled Wings win the Cup! Sid the Kid's young and his chance will come. As for this grizzled Leafs fan, i remember '67 and that's fine by me.
- Rev0lver, on 06/05/2008, -8/+21Maybe the media will stop shoving Crosby in our faces so much now. Either way, congrats to the Red Wings. If any team has earned it, it's them. Rangers will be looking for revenge next season, though!
- pmctosh, on 06/05/2008, -8/+21There we go. Great series boys, well done!!
- TexasFlood93, on 06/05/2008, -3/+15Great way to end the season. I was rooting for the Penguins but as a Kings fan, anything is better than seeing Chris Pronger or Getzlaf raising the cup over their heads.
***** the ducks. - darksideownedu, on 06/05/2008, -0/+12This is the very reason hockey is such an awesome sport. After all the hard fought victories and losses, everyone gets together and says "good game".
- johnmcd, on 06/05/2008, -0/+11Canadians use digg too!
- EnzanBlues, on 06/05/2008, -0/+11I know what you mean. I was getting very excited when they scored on the power play with just a few minutes left. I thought they were going to do it and tie it up again just like they did with only 35 seconds left in the game on Monday night. I was yelling and so excited when in the final second of the game they were that close to scoring. Truly an amazing game, and I am sad that Pittsburgh didn't get it, but the Red Wings were definitely the better team.
- ferndave, on 06/05/2008, -1/+11That's odd, because I saw it on NBC from multiple angles.
- indiancompanion, on 06/05/2008, -0/+10its actually exciting to watch unlike some sports
- imashmuck, on 06/05/2008, -0/+10Mike Vernon won it for the Wings in 1997 if I remember correctly.
It hasn't even sunk in yet. So happy right now. - sinurgy, on 06/05/2008, -0/+10No that's tears in your eyes and every other NHL fan from having to watch that weasel Gary Bettman constantly drag the NHL down! The guy is HORRIBLE at marketing (no old timers, it's not over expansion that did it) and that was supposed to be his strength. He got credit for helping the NBA in the 80's but I got a news flash, Magic and Bird did that, not you Gary Bettman.
- msam924, on 06/05/2008, -0/+10wow i haven't heard that in years. you're a true wings fan. GO WINGS!!!
- eeinw, on 06/05/2008, -0/+9Penguins played a great series, almost had a heart attack watching the last few minutes of that game. The Red Wings' veterency definitely helped them out this playoff run and they deserved to win this cup after a stunning regular season. It was great to see guys like Dallas Drake finally hoist the cup after what, 17 years in the league without one. Great great series, sad that the playoffs are over though =[
Good series, GO WINGS!! - WhiteMike87, on 06/05/2008, -0/+9I saw that and thought it went in--my heart just stopped. Thought Pittsburgh had tied it up the last minute AGAIN.
- designbydave, on 06/05/2008, -0/+9***** yerah!!!! Go Red wings!!!! I'm Drunk min celenbration!~ Great Times!!!!!!! WHooooooO!!OO!!O!O
- msam924, on 06/05/2008, -3/+12yzerman > Malkin, Zetterberg, Iginla, Ovechkin, Lidstrom, Forsberg, Brodeur > Crosby
- trill13, on 06/05/2008, -2/+11Well played by the wings. They led the league in points all year and they really worked for it here. Congrats to the champs.
