That was a thrashing ... I don't think I've seen Detroit play that bad ever in the playoffs ...
At the end of the first and beginning of the 2nd, Detroit was really taking it to Pittsburgh and I thought for sure Detroit was going to pull it out. But after the shorthanded goal by Staal and killing off those two penalties, the Pens just ran away with it and Detroit just looked tired and defeated from that point on.
Everyone seems to be a Wings fan this year, so I was getting some pretty nasty looks at the bar last night. I was one of maybe 4 or 5 people cheering for Pittsburgh, the other couple dozen were moaning and complaining all game. It was quite entertaining.
Everyone was laughing at Crosby on the dive in the 3rd when Maltby gave him a little tap to the back of the leg.
