What do you expect? It's the cup final.

On NASN too, obviously. I've heard complaints about not being able to see the puck. I think personally I've just got used to my eyes tracking it down, really. Also, if you're at the game, it's as visable as a football is. I can't wait for the game tonight. GO PENS!

I remember hearing about that at the time too. It's awful when it happens.

That's terrible to hear.

They played at Braehead last season, but they aren't guarenteed ice for beyond December '08 at Braehead, so an application has been made to the council to re-open the Lagoon Centre and it's looking good so far. Should be some definite news soon. I've been following them for too long... bottom of the league overall when I first started! But the draft has been kind to them and seem to be paying off!

I think it might come down to the home games, both teams winning all of their, and with Detroit having the original home ice advantage...

If you're getting into it, you could go along and watch the Paisley Pirates next season. They might be playing back at their old home of the Lagoon Centre in Paisley. I'll be glad to say hello to you.

Awesome game, Crosby IMO proved he is the best player in the world last night. Detroit pushed and pushed and gave a good performance but we were simply awesome. Oh, and WTF has Babcock been feeding Franzen in Detroit? He's on fire. LET'S GO PENS!

Thread died again... Game 1 of the final was on Saturday night and the Red Wings romped the Penguins sadly. But all is not lost! I think it was just the kick up the arse they needed to go on and win the Stanley Cup. Go Pens!

Nightshift bound. Wait and you'll see. Number 69.

This thread seems to have died.... ...but the finals start on Saturday! Detroit Red Wings vs Pittsburgh Penguins! I'm so happy to see this Penguins team doing SO well, considering how shit everything has been for the past few years in Pittsburgh. LET'S GO PENGUINS!

Just means some hockey to watch on Sunday. We're going through, I'm not too bothered. Yet.

Penguins vs Rangers is about to start at the Garden. GO PENS!

Hal Gill went for him at the end of the game tonight. Gloves off, straight in there. B) Great win for the Penguins, 2 up in the series and well on our way to the next round. Solid performace, Jordan Staal particularly impressed tonight, as did his brother in the Rangers shirt. Looking forward to Tuesday already. Go Pens!

It's a real problem. There's no ice guarenteed after Christmas this year.

That was disgraceful when he hit Sid. He knew exactly what he was doing, absolute w**ker. I bet the series won't end without Jarkko Ruutu starting a fight with Avery. My bet is it'll be tonight. I'm jealous. Very jealous indeed. I've never been to an NHL game. Just Scottish league games.

And it's given. I love Sid Crosby.

Video review...

4-4 now. The best game in the playoffs this year, definitely.

What a fucking turnaround. Fucking hell. What can I say. This team is going all the way.

This is shit. The 2nd goal was clearly deflected by a high stick, woeful decision by the refs.

Rangers vs Penguins is about to start... should be great! GO PENGUINS!

The new Canada shirts are ace.

There's no questioning the guy's ability, he is one of the best centres in the game. Are you a Sharks fan, just out of inetrest?
