fromthetop2 Posted April 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 My voice may go on IR after that game. For anyone who has ever been to a Preds game-it was THE loudest I've ever heard the GEC. It was like a UT/Florida, Titans/Steelers playoff game-only condensed down to about 18K inside. Not as many Red Wing Fans as normal-maybe Saturn had shifts working. Volkun was unbelievable. If I was a Wing fan, I might be whistling past the graveyard. Manny only saw 21 shots and let in three, Hatcher is NOT back yet, nothing from Stevie Y at all, and nothing on your vaunted power play. I mean, they are the best team in hockey and the Preds were tied with the Islanders for the weakest record coming into the playoff. Take away a goal that Volkun kicked in and an empty netter and the Wings haven't scored much at all more than Nashville. Our payroll equals just one of your lines-for as much money as they've spent, they should be blowing Nashville out 5-0 each game. Some crank Detroit callers stated "they let us have one." Yea, right, they'd rather NOT sweep us. They want to skate their old legs off for 5,6 even 7 games. The facts are, the Preds are skating with them and are not intimidated by their crybaby cheap-shot artists. Boys, we've got a series now!

FHSrebel27 Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 That was the loudest noise I've ever heard- period. Granted, if you put 66,000 Titan fans in a building, that would be but nevertheless, my ears still hurt. We played sooo very well. I'm very proud of our boys and I can't wait to see how the rest of it goes down. I don't know if we'll win 4-2 like I thought at first, but I'll take 4-3 too. And my David Legwand first goal prediction was just a bit off- I should have said the first home game. And Vokoun WILL get a shutout, I stand by that. He's playing amazingly.

dandy82 Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 If we get the Walker, Sullivan line going, the Dead Things could be in trouble. Was the GEC stoked, or what!!!!! A must win tuesday, cause I don't think we could crawl out of a 3-1 hole. I agree on the announcers on the saturday game in Det-riot. Could they not do their homework???? Now, it's like they just discovered the Preds. Talkin' about all our young talent, the crowd, etc. Watch the Det-riot players cry over every call now. They are the experts. Actually, I believe it's time for Tootoo(or somebody)to go out there, mix it up physically, provoke a fight, and get the Dead Things thinkin' about everything but hockey. Love to see those old players expend energy complaining, angry, screamin', pleading, instead of resting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
