...you think their dead, and then WHAM!!!...you have an ice pick in the side of your head.

I think if the Penguins can somehow pull another rabbit out of their hat tonight, it's their series to lose. Trust me, I know that's a HUGE if. But, veterans or not, you'd have to think the Red Wings would be shell-shocked if this goes 7. They've truly hit them with everything, and the Pens still have not died.

Also, I think most of the Penguins core players are too young to care what history usually indicates when a team is down 3-1 in a series.

Every day these young guns gain more confidence. They found out what Stanley Cup hockey was in games 1 & 2. Since then, they've adjusted their game, and have stood toe-to-toe with the vaunted Red Wings.

Again, at this point, I still give the Red Wings a 75% of hoisting the Cup tonight. However, the odds shift to the Pens if they turn this into a 7 game series.

Ohhhhh.....now I see. I thought they were slow kids drowned in a lake that needed their psycho mother to start their battles for them.

just kidding. Here's to a game 7!

In a manner of speaking, you're right...the Pens are the kid that drowned (or so it seemed) when the series was 2-0 with consecutive shutouts. But then, the eerie voice chimed in during game 3.... "It's-It's-It's-It's....A-A-A-A....Great-rate-rate-rate...Day-aye-aye-aye...For- or-or-or...hockey--e-e-e-e-e!"

Game 4 you cut off the head of the possessed beast, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Game 5 you buried the beast (again, so it seemed) and started celebrating, but just before the credits cued (35 seconds left), a hand blasts out of the grave.

Game 6??? Who knows? 

Sorry, I have a lot of time on my hands today...

I guess the camp counselors in Detroit are nervous and looking over their backs, but I'm not sure hockey was the cause.

And just like Jason, after so many bad sequels, they finally pull the plug on it.

Just kidding, just kidding! Hell of a fight the Penguins put up and its too bad that there isn't going to be a game 7 tommorow night.
