Cry Baby Crosby

The Wings have started this Stanley Cup just like they did last year winning the first 2 games at home. Another convincing win, and another Crosby crying show.

The Wings went down 1 in the first period but rebounded to score 3 unanswered goals throughout the rest of the game. The one thing that makes me mad about game 2 is the fact that Malkin got an instigator penalty which should be an automatic 1 game suspension, but of course the NHL loves Pitt and would not let them lose there best player for game 3.

Kudos to Zetterberg for beating the crap out of Malkin after Malkin came at him with his stick (I guess the NHL didnt see that).

Game 3 is tomarrow and Detroit plays good on the road, I am predicting a 4-2 Detroit win and 2 boxes of tissues for Crosby's tears at the end of the game.

Rematch

The Red Wings took out the Blackhawks in OT last night. Helm came through big last night with the game winner and with some excellent penalty kill. Now its time to focus on the Penguins. Game one starts Saturday with game two Sunday.

I don't really expect a much different outcome from last years finals. I believe the Wings are better then last year and the Penguins have not changed much at all with the exception of losing arguably their best player from last year Hossa.

I am going to predict the Wings in 5. I think the overall skill on Detroit is just way too much for Crosby and friends.
