Don't go full mippo

I'm not going full Mippo, if anyone outside of Detroit gave the Wings a real shot in this series I haven't seen it yet. Sometimes your team is just that much the underdog.

@Merrith

Of course, I don't think you call that there either, but when you let a team you are better then put you in a position like this I can't go full RAWR RAWR RAWR because the refs made a bad if technically correct call.

It wasn't even like there was roughing going on. Guy took a hit, then tangled up went down to the ice. No jabs were thrown, nothing.

Wonder if Chicago gets a PP at some point.

Seabrook leaves no doubt.

Like they just won the cup. Good luck Blackhawks, you're going to need it.

Well ends the way it should have I guess.

My hats off to Detroit. Gonna miss these match ups next year. God damn I was rustled.

Come on man, OT win in Game 7 against your most hated rival. You would have been pumped too had the Kings needed OT to win last night.

Okay, relieved now. Usually having a call like that happen results in a loss from the gut punch your morale takes.

First playoff win against the wings in 20 years, it's a big moment for them.

Last time it'll happen too, unless they face off for a Cup after this year.

GG. I was surprised to see the Wings make it this far to be honest. We sure miss Lidstrom big time.

Great playoffs for the wings. Could only slightly be happier.

And for your trivia moment, this is the first time in history the last 4 cup champs have been in the final 4.

So the fans that are in the United Center are supposed to be like "OH FUCK NOW WHAT?" and bite their nails after an OT game winning goal?

Who said Hawks fans aren't worried? Of course when you struggle against a weaker team (playoffs wise), and especially against a team that plays a good counter game to your team, you have plenty of reasons to be worried. But yah right after the win isn't really the time to express that.
