I can't wait, it's time for revenge and to show Hossa he made the wrong decision.

I wish I could go!!! My wife is getting laid off tomorrow, so it wouldn't be a smart move to go, even though I would love to. Oh well, I'll go next year!!!

Re: Stanley Cup Final Penguins vs Red Wings

that sucks Tim. is it a temporary layoff?

Re: Stanley Cup Final Penguins vs Red Wings

No, it's permanent. They let go a bunch of other about a month ago, but kept my wife on until tomorrow. She had an interview at Duquesne U a few weeks ago, so we'll see what happens with that.

Re: Stanley Cup Final Penguins vs Red Wings

Niklas Lidstrom returns to the Red Wings line up but Pavel Datsyuk and Kris Draper are both out tonight.

I didn't get to catch it because I was out of the room for most of it, but...

Did one of the Red Wings try to take out Malkin (Kronwall I believe)? It looked like he jumped in the air and almost put a thigh into Malkin's face. Or did I just come in and see the wrong point if anybody knows what I'm talking about?
