Not that I really like the Hurricanes.....but anyone who might beat Detroit has my support.

Why is that?

Congratulations to the Detroit Red Wings, 2002 Stanley Cup Champions!

And for next year...

GO 'CANES!!!

Sugarsprinkles 06-13-2002 10:24 PM

Thanks!

Have to give the 'Cane's credit...they never gave up till the final buzzer! Kept me on the edge of my seat all the way!

They'll make it eventually!

finally Dominik has his cup, now he can retire in peace and go down as one of the greatest goalies of all time :D

Sugarsprinkles 06-13-2002 10:39 PM

Do you really think he'll retire? Or will he come back another year?

darkmanx 06-13-2002 10:42 PM

That may be so, but although I'm not one of his biggest fans, I would hope that he comes back for at least one more year.
Mainly because we will be losing our coach, and possibly other players as well. We don't want to have to replace any more players than absolutely necessary. And if he does retire, I'd love to see us get Chris Osgood back.
Some fool on sports talk radio overnight suggested if Hasek retires we should consider Eddie Belfour. They've got to be kidding!! The man is certifiable!!

Congrats to the Red Wings!! You called it SS... Wings in 5. :D
Hope you celebrated properly... ;) :D

Sugarsprinkles 06-14-2002 02:19 PM

Don't know whether you'd call it celebrating or not but naturally I watched the whole game. Then all the post game celebrations that were televised. By the time they go off the air it's only 2 hours until I have to leave to do my paper route. I figure there's no sense in only 2 hrs sleep...I'd only feel worse so I stay up. Have already been up since 1 a.m. Thursday...
Go to pick up papers, which I assume will be a bit later than normal. Yeah.."a bit later" alright....didn't get them til 4 a.m.!!
Took me til 7 to finish delivering....it's now 3:30 pm and I haven't been to bed yet!! Over 36 hrs!!
Somebody catch me, I'm about to collapse!!

But, damn, it was GREAT!!! And the city maintained it's cool although there was plenty of partying in the streets. Only 6 arrests...mostly for drunkeness.

Thanks for all the Congrat's everyone!! It was SWEET!!

Now, who do we get to coach them next year?? Any suggestions????

Pat Burn's is taken so you can't get him. Maybe Bobby Orr? I'm grasping at fantasy here!

Woohoooo {{{{{{{{{{SugarSprinkles}}}}}}}}}}} It was a great series! I was at a sports bar for the third period and lit up a big fat stogie. My boyfriend was going for Carolina only because I was going for Hasek, I mean Detroit!

Thank God for the World Cup because I wouldn't know what to watch anymore!!!

Actually I think most of Detroit is hoping they hire one of Scotty's assistants...which one really doesn't matter...they're both extremely qualified.

Not really into soccer, and I'm already in serious Red Wing withdrawl!!!! WHEN IS TRAINING CAMP?????? (yeah, I know..in September:( )

Sugarsprinkles 07-03-2002 07:26 AM

Just read in this morning's paper that the Red Wings have signed Curtis Joseph! We're going from The Dominator to CuJo!!
And it looks like Chris Chelios will re-sign with the Wings too!
