    It's a cost cutting measure!

    The newspaper sports writers asked the NHL to repeat scores to save money on the people who write the headlines!?!

    Have you priced soy ink, lately?

    Hey, down to the nitty gritty tonight. On Versus, they had a commercial that counted all the minutes in the NHL playoffs. It's down to 180-not counting commercials-and I hope they are the best of the year.

    Rock on fans, you deserve it!!!!!

    RED WINGS 5

    Penguins 0

    Penguins taking really stupid penalties once again. Their frustration is showing. That's one thing about the Wings - those games they lost, they kept their cool.

    Datsyuk being back made a huge difference.

    This is related to hockey - and also to WWII. From the NY Times -

    The Red Wings’ P.A. announcer, Budd Lynch, was given a standing ovation on the 65th anniversary of the D-Day landings. Lynch, 91, served in the Essex Scottish Regiment of the Canadian Forces in Normandy and lost his right arm during combat a few weeks after the invasion. Five years later, he joined the Red Wings as play-by-play announcer and has been with the organization ever since.
