Hail To The Champs!
Last night the NHL season concluded with game seven of the Stanley Cup Final. And it was nerve-racking, exhilarating, worrisome and finally JUST FREAKIN AWESOME!!! The Penguins beat the Red Wings. They beat them in Detroit. And they beat them after Sidney Crosby got hurt in the 2nd period. Let's just say I was screaming, yelling and yes even a little dancing last night. The Pens were not given much of a chance in the Final against the Wings by many people before the series started. Then in a 2-0 hole most wrote them off entirely. They won 2 straight to tie it up but then lost game 5 5-0. Again everyone was ready to hand Detroit the cup. But Pittsburgh said NO! They won game 6 at home and clinched the cup on the road. That had only been done twice before. Also no team had ever been trailing in two separate series 2-0 and won the cup, until now. What else, how about Crosby is the youngest Captain EVER to raise the cup. I could go on but I will just say a big CONGRATS to the Pens and an even bigger THANK YOU.
