I really would have loved to see Detroit win the Cup at home in overtime. It would have been spectacular. Instead, they will win in Pittsburgh (as I predicted, mind you).
Despite the outcome, a great game. One of the best I've seen in a while. The refs called few penalties, even outside of overtime, and let the game play as it should be played. Fleury was the one player that kept the Pens in the game. Especially Malkin, who played awful, the entire Pens team seemed to be tired next to the older Wings team in overtime. They deserved to lose, except for Fleury, who is now defining the term 'money goalie'.
