What does everyone think about Bill Laimbeer leaving his WNBA coaching position? How would you like to see Laimbeer taking over the reigns of the Pistons? I have al

So with game 1 in the books, Detroit has shown that familiarity breeds dominance.  With that, here are a few things to take away from last nights game 1 and to look for in game 2.

First, it is plain to anyone who has working eyes that Henrik Zetterberg enjoys the hell out of shadowing and dominating Sidney Crosby.  It wouldn'y suprise me if Gary Bettman blew up Hanks phone all day asking him to please take it easy on pet Sid.  In fact, it's not even funny how glued Z was to The Kid, whose own shadow wasn't even visible.  If Zetterberg wins this matchup 85% of the time, this series will be short.

Kids, they never know when they are finished.  They often fail to recognize when they are outclassed in a fight, or outsmarted in a debate.  And that is their very best quality, and the one the Blackhawks are showing right now.

Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals was just another reminder that there is NO team outside of Anaheim and Pittsburgh thet can challenge the Wings in their quest for another title.  The Anaheim series showed what the Wings are made of, as the Ducks forced Detroits hand early and often in games.  Their patience to wait for mistakes and almost bullet-proof D-men almost sent the Wings home for some early tee times and cold ones on the deck.  But Detroit responded.  And they did it like they always do: calmly and efficiently, with 4 lines rolling like an avalanche down the mountain side.  I look forward to seein those Ducks in the Conference finals next year.  But i digress.  This team has taken it's shots, and come out the superior team just about every time they hit the ice.

Last night's win against Edmonton was very reassuring. I've known all season they were capable of mastering any game and making it more of a workshop on correct playing techniques, but after their disappointing 5-3 loss to Calgary prior to last night's game, my confidence was shaky.

e Sakic, makes my blood boil.

It's very much like I said in my last post; many teams opposing the Red Wings seem to give up on trying to beat the Wings with brains, and resort to brutality. I

The Red Wings have done exceptionally well thus far; we know they are capable of regrouping and digging themselves out of holes. Saturday night's debacle is like any other hole with impossibly

What a horrific season it has been for the Michigan Wolverines.  In Michigan, in the fall, you can deal with the Lions being the worst team in Football, because Michigan is always going to contend.  Well, except in the year 2008.  Apparently, when the Lions are the worst they've ever been, Michigan needs to try to compete with them.
