Right. Ok.

Do you honestly believe if Hossa had been hurt in Pitt, that the crowd wouldn't have cheered? Oh, and I watched the finals last year, did you? There were boos everywhere when the Wings won. And lets be real here. If the Wings had a young captain that pulled the same thing Crosby did, Pens fans would be complaining as well.

And whether you like it or not, until Crosby starts acting like a man on the ice, in all possible aspects (esp. crying about non calls, etc.), he's going to get guff from thousands of hockey fans. Pulled in all directions, excited, etc... those sound like excuses people make for a boy, not a man.

One last thing. If you can't handle the 'language' used in hockey, perhaps you should find a new sport to watch.

Enjoy your Cup.

Yeah, I've watched the finals for about 30 years now and the Pittsburgh crowd was much better than the Detroit.

And this ain't the rink it's a discussion board - show some class - or is that asking too much from a Wings fan?
