"Blackhawks eliminate Red Wings with 2-1 overtime win in Game 7, on goal by Brent Seabrook ...

<sigh> ... it was a good run, boys. It was a good run, .

Sorry for the loss SloMo... it didn't really pan out too well for the Sharks either.

Well, the Redwings did well to get as far as they did with the miserable start they had to the season and all of the injuries they had to deal with during the season. So, all in all, I think your winged wheels had a season to be proud of.

man thats a shame. I always root for the Redwings or "little Sweden" as I call them.

... "little Sweden", that's too funny. They used to call us "the Soviet Wings" when the Russian Five were there and before Detroit picked up all the Swedish players, . It sure seems like they focus on one individual country when they're scouting sometimes.

Well they have been having great success with it so why not.

Yep, I think that's the method-to-their-madness, they find one talent in an area & then scour it for more. Especially when you're talking about bringing foreign talent in ... makes sense to try and bring in some fellow countrymen to make them feel at home.
