I was definately surprised, it was entertaining hockey, full of hits, shot attempts and wicked saves. Now, I was disappointed with the final score because the Penguins were just delaying the Cup presentation to the Red Wings although its going to be much better when they win at home. Fleury had totally improved from Game 5 and Osgood was really good, so many close calls with goals.
*is so glad that you're here*
I wish we could play against one another - really put your goalie skills to the test
I agree with you up to a point
It was exciting with great shot attempts and awesome saves. I just wish that Detroit had been a bit more aggressive with their hits; there weren't many checks during the game for them, though the ones that they did make were quite good.
I think you're right about the Cup presentation. I've been reading many of the articles on the NHL website and it doesn't seem as though the Wings are very concerned about game 7. Confident, they are, but they don't seem over-confident, which is always good. They know they're a great team with lots of experience and they'll definitely use that to their advantage on Friday.

After that my first match that I've seen live was Canadian against Nordic. I miss this kind of rivalry. It's nothing like the rivalry that we have now. It was some serious stuff.
*bounces on Sabs head* My dream is to see a live match but during the playoff. I know the ticket are super expensive but I have to see one. Hopefully next year *crosses fingers*
As for the Penguins vs. Red Wings. I've been rooting for the Wings a long time ago. I'm a Montreal Canadian/Detroit Red Wings fans. Of course it's extremely hard when the two teams are facing each other because it's bug me a lots. As for last game I've noticed and a lots of peoples have too that it seems that both team seems to struggle when they aren't playing home. I don't think it's the fact that the crowd are against them. I'm trying to come up with a reason but I'm coming empty *pouts*. So if my theory is right, this Friday the Red Wings will have the Cup. The only downside it's that I won't be able to watch it because I'm working *whines*
*clings tight* I didn't know that! My little brother and I used to play street hockey when we were younger with him playing goalie. We had tons of fun. *nodnods*
I love hockey rivalries - the games are always such fun to watch.
They are expensive!
But they will so be worth the money, esp. if I can get some for a game in the Joe. How awesome that would be!
I agree. *nods* It seems as though both teams have struggled when on the road, which, if that continues, then Detroit has a most excellent chance to win on Friday.
Aw <3 *snugglesyoutight* You've so got to record it
*wholeheartedly agrees with your statement that they will win the Cup on Friday*
