From Ducks Blog:
It can't end tonight.Heh. Good luck with that. The fans can yell and scream all they want... it's the teams that are gonna decide it. We're just a little bit over five hours from the beginning of what I hope is the Duck's swan song. We'll be there... right in front of the teevee with our Winged Wheel sweater on, cheering as loud as we possibly can... coz I wanna see us take on those young Blackhawks and then whoever wins the East. I think another Stanley Cup parade is just what Dee-troit needs this year.
It just can't.

As much as these Ducks will go into this one knowing it could be the last game of their season, Ducks fans need to approach it the same way. Forget about the annoying influx of red jerseys sprinkled throughout the arena tonight -- this place needs to be electric and it needs to be loud. Every Anaheim rush, every Wings penalty, every battle for the puck that goes the Ducks' way -- heck, even the introduction of the starters -- needs to be met with a deafening roar. Every attempt at a pro-Wings chant needs to be drowned out by an even louder Ducks one. It's on you, Ducks fans. As much as anyone, you need to show up tonight too.
Can Dee-troit muster adequate security for a parade? (Just kidding -- maybe).
ReplyDeleteHappy fan-ning!
All of the teams have gone into seven games. Pens/Caps. Bruins/Canes. What a year for excitement by all.
ReplyDeleteUh-oh, game 7 coming up. The nail-biting begins.
ReplyDeleteSwan Song.
ReplyDeleteThat was too rich...
Moogie: re: security... See for yourself! All accounts said it was a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteMichelle: I find other teams' Game Sevens more exciting than the Wings'. Andy has it right: nail-biting time. Good luck to your Pens!
Darryl: Heh. Too bad it didn't happen. Close, but no cigar.
