More Show Than Tell

Thank you Sweden!

Nothing...absolutely NOTHING left to prove.
My Beloved Red Wings who were all but counted out the beginning of last season have now proven all the ANALysts wrong.
Not only did my Beloved Wings win the Stanley Cup...
But they also took home these honors:
President's Trophy for the best record of the season.
Western Conference trophy for being the best in the West.
William M. Jennings Trophy..thank you Osgood and Hasek
Zetterberg MVP of the playoffs...
My Beloved Nick...Norris again for the Best Defensemen...
Datsyuk--Selke (although I think Zetterberg could have gotten this one too)
And Dats for Lady Bing (best sportsmanship)
More shiny silver trophies than even we know what to do with.
But The Wings, criticized, laughed at, and the comments of "their too old"...well.
They are the Stanley Cup Champions...bite me!
It wasn't a cake walk. Although sweeping the Av's in 4 was nice :D
The Pengs were a good team but at least from this side of the igloo I think too much was put on the shoulders of Crosby. He is not mature enough to lead his team but that does not take away that he will be a great hockey player. But I am sick of seeing him in commercials for everything including Gatorade.
I think he overshadowed some of the other players on the Pengs who I thought were better. Most notably..Malkin (sp) and Hossa.
Did I go to the parade??? Of course 101 degrees wouldn't keep me away...and I have the sun burn to go with it...dang 80+ sunblock. But it was worth it for pictures like this...I purposely darkened it because internet picture thieves. But I have about many pictures from the parade, may pictures of players and even of one I befriended..that's a story for another day.
