Duly noted.

Well, I, er, my friend doesn't wear it out to the mall or while mowing his lawn...it's strictly hockey-game only.

Off-topic from the NHL, of course, but my favorite teams to watch were the 1994 and 1995 Houston Rockets and the 1983 76'ers.

Ok, hockey related...A friend of mine, I'll call him "LaCosaNostraMan," shows up to a Sioux game wearing a 1980 Tretiak Soviet jersey or a 1990 Central Red Army Fedorov jersey. Foul? Could be. But I'm he is also wearing a Sioux hat. Does that pass the test? Is showing off the jersey collection acceptable? Or only if he is actually watching Russia/USA at the Olympics?

I agree...and have worn a blue Sweden jersey with #5 and LIDSTROM on the back along with a Red Wings hat to a Wild/Detroit game before...no need for a whistle on that one. Now, wearing a Red Sox jersey to a Tigers/Twins game? Personal foul indeed! Even worse if you're wearing the Red Sox jersey to a Sioux/Bulldog hockey game.

LOL...now it all makes sense. I loved the Motor City Bad Boys. Personally, I thought the "walk-off" after the sweep in '91 was a bit childish, but Larry Bird and Kevin McHale did the same thing after the Celtics were eliminated in 1988 by the Pistons and nobody said a word about it. Oh, and for the record, Laimbeer did NOT foul Kareem in game 6 of that 1988 finals. What a crock. But I understand your hatred for Detroit now that I know how far back you go with the rivalry between the Blackhawks and Red Wings and Bulls and Pistons. Did you see the ESPN 30 for 30 on those Pistons teams? Good stuff.

Dude...he was on the cover of Van Halen's "DIver Down" album! Everybody knows that.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN8WRNkrYLI Great first pitch last night from rapper 50 Cent...yikes.

Hit on Stepan earlier in the series...1 broken jaw, no penalty. Same type of hit on Weise tonight gets a 5 minute major and the gate. Consistency in officiating, NHL, please.

Sheesh...did Paul Coffey knock up your sister? Steve Yzerman ding your car in the parking lot at Target and drive off without saying anything? Why such hatred for the Red Wings?

Not everyone here sends the kids to their room for the evening or kicks the family dog outside after their team loses. Goon didn't exactly gloat over the Bruins smoking the Red Wings and was pretty silent when the Canadiens eliminated his team.

Colorado College...FAIL.

That's kind of my line of thinking. Wearing a #99 Gretzky jersey was awesome...when I was about 16. Now that I'm 44, I want to make sure no one thinks I'm THIS guy... For that reason, I do have several jerseys with my own name on the back. It's one think if I have a Johnson or a Hrkac jersey (guys from my era), but truly another for me to be sporting a Grimaldi jersey. Just my opinion though...I know some of my friends mock me for having my own name and number. Of course, they're the same guys who have a Wild "Gaborik" or "Boogaard" jersey in their closet that they paid $300 for and haven't worn in 5 years...

I simply can't cheer for the Canadiens because they copy-catted St Cloud State's logo on their jerseys.

This regarding Andrew Shaw... Like button X 1000, Goon!

Seems like Jeff Carter is triple-shifting out there sometimes...every time I look, he's either scoring a goal or assisting on one...

Hmnnn...that's a pretty good argument. So what if it's a player's name (that happens to be your own name) but with a different number?

They managed to defeat the Red Wings last year when down 3-1...just sayin'. It ain't over until it's over. If Chicago wins game 5, that puts the pressure back on Los Angeles to win game 6 and avoid a return trip to Chicago. One Andrew Shaw slew-foot of Anze Kopitar and this series could sway back in Chicago's favor...

I agree with what Mike Milbury said after last night's game...the Blackhawks have to be stunned at what's happened in this series. They were 20 minutes away from a 2-0 series lead...and then give up 5 goals in the third period to lose game two and have yet to recover. On the flip-side, Chicago should have won game 1 EASILY, given that LA had just expended a tremendous amount of energy in the four-wins-in-a-row comeback over Anaheim in the first around, not to mention the long-flight to Chicago and immediate game against the Blackhawks. The fact that game 1 was in doubt until the final minutes really says a lot about the Kings and their physical and mental toughness.
