Traitor!! Traitor!!
 

Scotty Bowman trying to keep low profile

CHICAGO (AP)—Scotty Bowman’s imprint on the Detroit Red Wings stretches back 15 years. It includes three Stanley Cup titles during nine seasons as coach and a stint as a consultant that was capped by another championship a year ago.

Bowman left the franchise he helped shape to join the Chicago Blackhawks as an adviser and be with his son. Stan Bowman, in his eighth season as Chicago’s assistant general manager, is in remission after battling Hodgkin’s lymphoma the last two years.

Scotty Bowman said being close to his son has been a “top-notch” experience.

It’s also put him on the other side of one of the NHL’s oldest rivalries.

Bowman’s vast knowledge of all things hockey—the Hall of Famer has coached nine Stanley Cup winners and been a part of two others—could now help the young Blackhawks in the Western Conference finals against the Red Wings.

Bowman, however, isn’t giving unsolicited advice to coach Joel Quenneville.

“I know all their trends and stuff, but at the same time he’s got to run his own stuff,” Bowman said on Saturday before the Blackhawks left for Detroit, where Game 1 is Sunday.

“You can always get information. You have to process it. That’s basically what you have to do.”

But Quenneville made it clear that Bowman’s presence has been a bonus as Chicago heads into its first conference final since 1995.

“He’s been good to have around the first two rounds, too,” Quenneville said Saturday. “… He’s good and a lot more familiar with these guys than other teams, as well. He’s going to be useful in a lot of ways.”

This season has seen the league’s youngest team emerge as a force again after missing the playoffs for most of the last decade.

“I’m surprised, but at the same time the experience they are acquiring with each and every game and series is huge,” Bowman said. “I don’t see the team changing a lot. You have to add all the time, but this is a pretty young group.”

Bowman’s assessments are highly regarded and so are his observations

Detroit coach Mike Babcock knows that Bowman can be a huge asset in preparations.

“Scotty is a book of knowledge,” Babcock said on Saturday. “No. 1, he’s got to be willing to share with you. No. 2, you got to want it.”

Red Wings veteran Chris Chelios(notes) spent nine years with the Blackhawks and credited his old team for bringing Bowman aboard.

“Scotty knows everything,” he said. “It was just another good move Chicago made, acquiring him.”

Bowman said he’s tried to keep out of the way this season. And when he returns to Detroit, he’s going to stay under the radar if possible, despite all his old acquaintances.

“I’m going to stay low,” he said. “I’m not going to hang out. I’m not on a goodwill tour or anything like that. I’ll see them after and maybe before (games), but not during.”

Those are some hotttt guys right there. I wonder what they look like in the locker room after a nice long sweaty game. I bet they are all so dirty and hot and sweaty right before they go and take their showers.

:?:

Cum on , the guys name is good, his ass gotta be perfect

^^^^Yer starting to scare me. :wtfru:

I'm thinking that under all that heavy gear is a ripped body that would just make me melt under all his hottness

Yes, it makes me wet too, but I'm a woman. :lol

No I just keep thinking of all the manliness under all that padding and how they would just break me in half in bed

Hockey sticks in certain places will do that.

Well that though just makes me bite my lip an pucker my pecker before the bottle of lube comes out to play

:wtf:

Looks like someone didn't log out.:zowned:

You figure it out, let me know. If not, NONE TOO SOFT has a split personality! :)

Nope didnt forget to log out.....

He has just lost his marbles. I'm beginning to wonder if I really want to meet this guy.

Naw youre safe, you don't have a wee wee for me to oooogle over

Thanks for fucking up my thread asshole.

He's effed up everyone's threads, don't take it personally. :)

Real Wings fans...and some others, will love this, warning...sad.

Oh wow. That's sad but yet uplifting.

2 more games and on to the cup!!!

:rockwoot::rockwoot: Wings - Pens in the finals again. This we be a long hard fought series. Hopefully the Wings can get all their guys healthy, they're going to need everyone firing on all cylinders to beat the Pens.

Go PENS.

Not on Saturday.

1 game down, 3 more to go.

GO WINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2 games down, 2 to go.

Fuck, I hate the Red Wings. Osgood is a machine. Dude is on top of his game right now.

All of the Wings are on top of their game. Malkin and Crosby are getting owned.
It's great to see a lot of the ex Griffins(Detroit's farm team) doing so well. We are spoiled in GR getting to see the future talent of the Red Wings progress into standout NHL players.

Go Wings!

Yeah you are, I need to get out there to see a Griffons game next season. Been wanting to for many years now, just always forget!

Come out on a Friday night next season. It's $1 beer and hot dog night. You can crash at my place if you need to.

Crosby isn't playing well. Malking is playing better, but not great. The Pens are getting some shitty bounces.

Its going to be a hell of a battle tomorrow night I have a feeling.

Time to get this train back on track.

The Pens train has been permanently derailed.

I'm not ready to go that far, yet.

You do realize that the Pens would need to win 4 of the next 5 games? Not likely.

Bitch, I know how the series works.

Ease up brother, don't get your thong in a wad. I just thought I'd give you a free math lesson. :lol

Well, I did go to college for journalism...math isn't my strong point.

This pretty much sums it up.

Going to be a hell of a fight tonight, I expect we see both teams on their 'A' games. Go Wings!

This shit ain't over yet. Lets even this shit up!

The Pens snuck in a free power play by having 6 skaters on the ice. Fucking cheaters. How dumb are the refs to not notice the Pens had an extra player on the ice? Talk about oblivious.

I didn't see a single second of the game. I dont have cable.

It's on NBC here. I didn't see it either, gotta work nights.

Too bad they didn't score. :whistle:

3 and 4 are on Versus, NBC would rather have the plague than show a NHL game on a weekday.

OK. Butt heads, anyway. :bash:

They didn't score at that moment but it would have put the wings on a power play instead of the Pens getting a power play 10 seconds later in which they DID score.

Tick, tick, tick 1 hour 45 mins. till game time.

Go Wings!!!!!!

1-0 pens.

Looks like best of seven. At least it's a good series and not a wipeout.

Hell yes. Series even.

Pens lost in 6 last season, they will lose in 6 this season. 66= Mario Lemieux.
:gofurslf: Go Wings.

The pens train is back on track.

5 to nothing, Wings. Maybe they'll finish off the Pens tomm.

I think so, I thought pitt may have picked up some momentum after winning the last 2 but I am sure det took the wind out of their sails with this beating.

Tom

What a pitiful game.

That was awful for the Pens. I would have like to see them keep Fluery in the game. Now he's going to start game 6 with no confidence. I know the Pens won't roll over so easy because game 6 is going to be a real fight.

Why, so he could give up 5 more goals? They shoulda pulled him sooner.

I think that was more of the Wings getting the shots on goal rather than the goalie fucking up.

Other than games 3 and 4, Fleury has been terrible, IMO.

Do NOT speak ill of MAF! :nono:

The Wings have been shelling him. Their average shots on goal/game is one of the highest in the NHL. The more shots you take, the more goal you are going to make. Fluery is good goalie, but the Wings are the best team the Pens have seen all year. So giving up lots of goals is expected. What wasn't expected was the Wings completely shutting down Malkin and Crosby in game 5.

Alright, tell me what he's done well in games 1, 2, and 5...:tt:

Kept the score close in game 1? :lol

Did you just see that pile up with 13 seconds left and Fleury somehow managed to find the puck and get his hand on it?

THAT that right there is why he is THE AWESOME!!!!!!:rockwoot:

My prediction for Friday night...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3j36dLb2pPY

Yes, but he had some fantastic help from his defensemen. He was rock solid last night. Hopefully he brings that game to Detroit on Friday.

The NHL and the refs are doing everything they can to give the Pens the cup.
The Wings don't lose at home. Game 7 in Detroit will bring the Wings Lord Stanley's Cup. Now fuck yourself and have a good day.

MAF is a frickin' GOD. I mean, he stood on his COCK last night! :lmao:

Boo hoo!

Wow, Should I Call the Waaaaaaaaaaaaaambulance??

Detroit is the Yankees of The NHL...I also hate the Penguins as much as them...But Fuck Detroit.

It's already on it's way.

;) I'm just messin' with ya Rider. Seriously though, I hate when people bitch about the refs!

I'm not crying but soon Sydney Crosby will be for the second year in a row. Did you see him cry like a little bitch last year? Full on crocodile tears. The dude needs to grow a set of balls.

Hey there's a future pic of Syd.

Hehee!

Lets not talk about how Buffalo was robbed in 1999 by the officials too.

Fuckin brett hull:td:

Tom

Oh yeah like the Devils are Flyers are any better. They don't have as many cups combined as the Wings do. Now go pull your head out of your pathetic ass.

And the Wings are not the Yankees of Hockey. You are aware the the NHL has a salary cap? They they don't buy championships like the Skanks do.

The rangers tried that and failed miserably. in the late 90's and early 00's

Tom

Lol...Why is it that every argument goes back to how many championships each team has? You do realize that Its not the amount of Cups a team has that makes me base my opinion on them right? The Wings could win the cup for the rest of my existence that doesnt make them the better team...I simply dont like there style, nor do I like the town of Detroit.

Your a Fucking Idiot.

You should know better than Anyone Since you swing off the cocks of each team member of Detroit that its not always the best team that wins it all.

You really wanna know my take on this years playoffs?? Boston Should have been playing Instead of the Penguins...They played Phenomenal Hockey this year.

Who is the fucking idiot? You clearly know nothing about hockey.

Right because Detroit is the end all be all of the Hockey world.

Your on Acid if you think the Pens are a better team than Boston.

For hockey, Detroit is. The rest of the Detroit sports teams blow goats. Detroit is known for having the best playing surface in the league. Pittsburgh is known for having one of the worst. Reason being is the Wings have to money to properly maintain the arena floor. Why do they have the money? Fan support. Why do they have that fan support? Because they are a very good team year in year out. Can you remember the last time the Wings didn't make it to the playoffs?


Boston lost didn't they? They clearly were not the best team in the east. If they were they'd be in the finals. The team with the best regular season record is NOT the best team. I think Anaheim showed that when they beat San Jose in the first round.

You really are Fucking Stupid Arent you??

I'll agree with the Pens comment, One of the Biggest factors Last year when the Flyers played the Pens in the East Finals was ice conditions, That rink looks like Shit after the first five minutes of play and the puck jumps all over the fucking place.

And I never said Boston should have been there solely based on there record, There a better all around team than the Penguins...

And to answer your question.

2005

Okay seriously. You're nuts if you actually believe this.

Case in point...Toronto Maple Leafs. Terrible team that haven't won the cup since.....um....I think it's 62 (could be wrong but I'll check). They are the richest franchise in the league and have amazing support yet they suck. :idk:

67' They won

OK, somebody eye poke the Canadian about how they have no real sports besides hockey. :bonk:

And reading all this is entertaining as hell. Go Wings. :D

The better team doesn't always win the game or series or championship. That's why there are these things in the sports world we like to call upsets. Winning the long drawn out regular season (assuming you have a decent schedule, not something like a college football fluff schedule, which really doesn't apply in pro sports) is more impressive than pulling to together a short winning streak in the playoffs.

Playoffs just gets the glory though.

Shit like this just gets my goat every single time! :plzdie:

And if you wanna throw Stats Down, The Flyers have made the playoffs Every year since 95 (I think) except for 05' and 07' So Blow me Mr My team has a huge fanbase and money blah blah blah...Come to philly and watch a flyers game, its NOTHING compared to a Detroit game Im sure.

No one in there right mind wants to go to philly or detroit.

And it's just a joke. Unwad the panties.

Fan support is what makes a team great. I still support the Detroit Tigers and they've sucked for 25 years. :lmao:

I wanna go to Detroit, family lives 40 miles from there. :D

Philly Owns Detroit...And Its really not that bad when you live next to it all your life...Its stereotyped just like everything else in this world.

No offense but Id blow my brains out if I lived where you live trip, But your used to what you have and Im used to what I have...So its like apples and Oranges. Its just slower paced down there and I was born and raised near the City.

And Hey, The tigers did well Two seasons ago!!! :lol
