I'm so glad that you were proved right. I'm so happy for all the Wings; so many great stories, so much adversity that they played through, and they did it with such class. Dallas Drake. Darren Macarty. Darren Helm. Jiri Hudler. Chris Chelios. Datsyuk and Zetterberg. Who can forget Chris Osgood and yes, Dominik Hasek. Justin Abdelkader. Derek Meech. Nick Lidstrom. Mike Babcock, Scotty Bowman, and Ken Holland. From the rookies on the team to the management. I am truly glad to be a fan of the 2008 Stanley Cup Champion Detroit Red Wings!! As an aside, I live in Kentucky where most everyone doesn’t even know that there is such a thing as hockey, it was pretty cool that I got a call Tuesday morning from my boss (I work from home M-W), and said he was tired and it was my fault because he stayed up and watched the Wings up until the end of the 2nd overtime! I’m not sure if he’d watched a game of hockey in his life. And he was stunned when I told him the Penguins won. He said, “Didn’t the Red Wings have two and a half times more shots? They were clearly the better team...” :-) I’ll make a Red Wing fan out of him yet! Anyway, glad to see the Wings close it out. My playoff beard can finally come off. Again, thanks for all your hockey commentary- you've been a great read as I've attempted to get my hockey fix in the hockey void of Kentucky. Cheers! YYYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS

Yeah baby! Last time we won the cup I was in the military (same when Pistons won) so I wasnt around for that. Its going to be a blast. Where is everybody going to camp out for the parade? Bar first? I wouldnt mind celebrating with some fans other than my friends so if anybody wants to meet up, have a drink and celebrate I think we are going to start/finish the day at the Anchor Bar on 1st and Fort.

One hell of a playoff season!!! So many unbelievable stories on so many of the players and coach's included. Sitting here in the parking lot (supposed to be working) all four windows down, the breeze feels good, the air is pretty much liquid though, def leppard on the ipod. Feels like the last day of High School, no more hockey for a while. Oh one hell of a Blog! And Stanley is ours!!! One hell of a regular season!!!
