You just can't bitch about that goal. A great goal by a great player

 

[tsawchuk]

YES!

 

[beantownmaniac]

Good game Wings fans. See ya Sunday

 

[BF4L]

Grats Wings fans.

I am fucking pissed.

 

[Wazmankg]

Cool. Good game. Nice to have Dats back & healthy. Getting Hank back would be sweet.

 

[BlueWolfZero]

Tigers fan going nuts after Comerica Park showed Datsyuk's goal from beantown!

At least the Red Wings gave Tiger fans something to cheer about. They're losing 11-3 last time I checked.

Datsyuk the best player in the world. Fuck Crosby

Wings played the perfect road game

 

[Wazmankg]

Meh, Boston will be fine

Maybe. They're faster and stronger, but that's what 4 out of 5 this year now ?

 

[Jims_Doors]

That 3rd period was one of the greatest periods of NHL Hockey I've ever seen.....

 

[tsawchuk]

Great game Bruins fans. Even if we had lost, I'd love to see a whole series like this.

Yea that can't be a coincidence. Boston might still win but it's not going to be a cakewalk

 

[postmaster]

Yeah............I miss those days

Gordie?s greatest hits: The night Howe took apart Lou Fontinato

That evening at Madison Square Garden, Fontinato took a break from reading his press clippings to charge into a fracas involving Red Kelly and Eddie Shack behind New York’s net. Howe, who had intervened on Kelly’s behalf, noticed the blur rushing towards him, recognized it as Fontinato, and ducked a punch aimed at his head. Then, as Howe later described it, “that honker of his was right there, and I drilled it. That first punch was what did it. It broke his nose a little bit.”

Observers recalled Howe grabbing Fontinato’s jersey with his left hand, then using his right hand to deliver a stream of vicious uppercuts–”whop, whop, whop, just like someone chopping wood,” said one player

Yeah sure. I just know I'm glad Dats is on our side. The guy is worth the price of admission even when he doesn't score. The Bruins could have scored a couple easily, but the pressure is on them Sunday.

I love the line "Unlike Wayne Gretzky, the fellow who broke most of his records, Gordie didn’t require a bodyguard. He was his own enforcer." That's just 1 of the reasons I'll take Orr and Howe over Gretz as greatest ever.

Welcome back Pavel ....................

Three things:

1) DATSYUK!!!!!!!!!!!!! After he made that move at center ice I just knew he was about to score.

2) Lucic is a motherfucking piece of classless shit and if ever shit could be a son of a bitch it'd be Lucic that asshole is 10 times lower than Neal and I hope Lucic's pet hamster drowns in a fire.

3) DATSYUK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

If the rest of the games are half of what this one was, Boston and Detroit fans are going to be treated to something special.
