Congrats Wings!

Only issue I have with it is giving it to Chelios as one of the first folks to get it, sure he's an icon, and sure before he got injured he was a good player, however, he didn't play a game during the final stretch.

Minor issue at best.

Chelios told the media last night he will be back next season.

I thought he would retire.

He's still 'high on life' {I think it's pain killers myself} from the win last night.

He'll probably pull what 1/2 of the roster of the Ducks did last season and delay... and delay... and delay... and delay until the trade deadline and THEN decide to come back.

I HAD respect for the Ducks {at least some of them F**k you Pronger} before that, now the entire team can rot as far as I'm concerned.

Cheli retire? You should know better than that.

I have to give props to the Penguins for making this an exciting series and never giving up the last two games. They're going to be scary for many years to come.

It be interesting coming year as many of the key players on the Pens are slated to be UFA or RFA, such as MAF, Malkin, Stall.

Not too sure if Pens can afford to keep them and not sure how much "sidney discount" these guys are willing to take to be part of a dynasty.

It's finally back home ( born and raised in Detroit - currently living in Fla.) Now its time for the Pistons to shake it up just enough....!!!!! I remember going to a Red Wings game at the Olympia on Grand River (that's where they played before they got the Joe Louis Arena - actually they went from the Olympia, to Cobo Hall, then to Joe Louis)! Never forget it!!!! Go Wings!!!!!

I have a picture of the Olimipia rink. They actually had what looks like chicken wire around the top of the boards instead of glass....Old picture, everyone wore hats then and there were men at ice level smoking cigars!!!!! Funny.....

I cannot express my joy right now! This was definately 3 years in the making for D-town. They have dominated the NHL since the Lockout, when everyone said they would fall off because of the salary cap. Holland and Illitch proved them all wrong. NO TEAM deserves this more, imo!

Gotta give it up to Babcock for putting the right matchups out there!
