Farewell Saku

Saku Koivu and the hated Ducks are not a good fit. Anaheim is stocked with players I despise; players like Corey Perry and Ryan Getlaaf. Past hated Ducks include Todd May, Chris Kunitz, Rob Neidermayer, the list goes on and on... Why would one of the "good guys" in the league want to play there? Does he simply want to hang out with BFF Teemu Selanne? Because if that's the case, he's making...

More photos » by Paul Sancya - AP Browse more photos » Great win for Pittsburgh, as they become just the third team to ever win a Stanley Cup in Game 7 on the road.

Penguins 2, Red Wings 1

THE PENGUINS WON THE STANLEY CUP!! Fleury rose to the challenge. The team played as a team. Sid got hurt and they still held on. I went looking to see if anyone logged more ice time since Sid was out - besides Geno and Jordan, the truth is that everyone did their part. They won it as a team. First period: The Wings came out with a fire lit under their collective butts. They threw everything at the...

The Penguins wouldn’t let the Red Wings celebrate with the Stanley Cup, not again. Not in this Game 6 in their arena.

Game 6 Keys

from Scott Burnside of ESPN, Here are things we will be looking out for in tonight’s Game 6 of the Stanley Cup finals between the Detroit Red Wings and Pittsburgh Penguins: 1. The Fleury factor Can Marc-Andre Fleury shrug off his Game 5 performance in which he was yanked after giving up five goals on 21 shots?

Dynasties

The media in the hockey world is desperately wanting the Pittsburgh Penguins to be the Edmonton Oilers of the late 80's/early 90's, with Sidney Crosby and Evgeny Malkin playing the role of Wayne Grezky and Mark Messier. The problem is, the Oilers also had Glenn Anderson, Paul Coffey, and Jari Kurri (pictured). Whereas, the Penguins currently have a supporting cast of players that are either long in...

Pens Need More Goals

from Joe Starkey of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Detroit coach Mike Babcock said that if someone had told him at the beginning of the year that he would be depending on the likes of Abdelkader (we’re now officially able to spell that name without checking), Ericsson, Darren Helm and Ville Leino, “I wouldn’t think we’d be in the Stanley Cup Final.” The Penguins need an...

Who Will Step Into The Limelight?

from Darren Eliot of Sports Illustrated, Finally, if you’re looking for a couple of players out of the limelight who will thrust themselves into the glare with a special contribution, consider Valtteri Filppula of the Red Wings and Chris Kunitz of the Penguins. Both play significant minutes and during key situations. They’ve had good moments already during this playoff run, but with a single...

Savoring a Stanley Cup Finals Rematch

After a full 82-game regular-season schedule and three rounds of playoffs, the NHL has wound up exactly where it was one year ago, as the hockey world girds itself for a rematch of the Detroit Red Wings and the Pittsburgh Penguins in the Stanley Cup Finals. Excuse me if I find it impossible to complain. Granted, everything old is not new again. There are new faces on both teams, and part of me is absolutely...
