Great game, congratz Pens fans enjoy the cup.
What a last second fury from the Wings though. Exciting to the end. You can have Hossa back now.

I wouldn't use this series as a determining factor as whether they resign Hossa. There were a lot of other players who could've stepped up. This team was a crossbar from potentially winning the cup. I think it is in the best interest of the team to remain in tact.

True. Hossa has a few good years left.

IMO, Hossa's salary can be spent elsewhere. But that doesnt matter anymore. Now, Crosby has the cup..... doh

What I would like to see the Wings do is go away from guys like Draper and Holmstrom and towards guys like Helm. I don't really know who is a free agent yet, but 40 goals is hard to replace on your roster.

Homer is due for retirement. Draper is still one of the leagues top face off men.

wings will come back into finals again next year, that is what I think

I can't imagine how Hossa feels right now. I think i actually heard some boos when he had the puck.

keep the traitor lol

As a Pittsburgh fan, i have to ask you how is he a traitor? He only played in Pittsburgh for half a season and didn't even choose to go to Pittsburgh in the first place.

Great game and the end was down to the wire...that finish I thought the Wings were going to tie it up.

I was kidding with "traitor"

but its kinda messed up that he thought Red Wings had a better shot at the Cup this year.....serves him right

Hossa is getting drilled by Detroit media right now LOL

What sucks is, now we have to wait so long for the playoffs to start next year. This is like 2005 when the Pistons lost to San Antonio. So close, yet so far.

What a skank who asked Hossa "how much do your regret your decision". Loaded question much? ****ing *****.

I can't even watch anymore. It looked like Zetterberg already shaved?
