PITTSBURGH WINS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Stanley Cup final was exciting and memorable indeed. The final featured the underdog Penguins vs. the powerhouse Red Wings. Most people thought that the Penguins are done after losing the first 2 games against the Red Wings however, they proved them wrong by winning the cup in the seventh game on the road. And to make it even more embarassing for the Wings is the fact that Crosby didnt even play half of the 2nd period and only played for 32 seconds in the 3rd period, this is due to a cheap and dirty hit by a swedish player named Johan Franzen. Ultimately, the Penguins became 1 of the 3 teams to win the cup after trailing the series 2-0 and became third team in the cup history to win the cup on the road

Prediction:

  • I predicted the Penguins gunna win (and i was right) because they got a lot of young player and a lot of canadians on the team. unlike the Detroit Red Wing who stacked themselves with europeans who played cheap and dirty (Johan Franzen and Tomas Holmstrom). Holmstrom like to screen the goalies by standing right in front of them which is annoying to see
  • Don Cherry from the Coaches Corner predicted that the Red Wings gunna win the cup but he is wrong to da max.
Key Players:

  • Maxime Talbot scored 2 goals to help the Penguins to capture the Stanley Cup
  • Marc-Andre Fleury made a huge leaping saves with only 0.5 seconds left in the 3rd period
  • Sidney Crosby became the youngest captain to win the Stanley Cup
Marian Hossa "the Traitor"

  • played for the Penguins in the Cup run last year but lost in the finals
  • signed a 1 year deal worth 7 million USD with the Red Wing hoping to win the cup
  • played against the team he ditched on this year cup finals and didnt score a goal (noob)
  • lost against the team he ditched off (traitor+noob)
