Fantastic comeback in detroit tonight by Tampa! Funny it all started when i decided to switch the tv over to watch this series for the first time this offseason and BAM! 2 goals by Tampa to tie it! Then the OT winner!!! I guess I better watch the next game! Go Tampa Go! (the quicker detroit is finished the quicker Babcock can make travel arrangements out of that horrible city)
I started to watch that game just before Ben Bishop knocked the puck into his own net for Detroit's second goal. I figured there's no way they can come back after seeing their own goalie score into his own net. Later, i flipped the channel back on when Detroit was leading 2-0 with about 6 minutes left to go. I told myself "F$*&# Detroit will beat Tampa, which is just what f$&#$ Montreal wants!"
So i decided to watch something else. About 20 minutes later, i decided to check the final score on my smartphone and was totally caught by surprise when i saw that the score was now 2-2 and the teams heading into overtime.
So after the show i was watching at the time ended (at 10:01pm), i figured i'd watch the overtime and to my great surprise, Victor Hedman was getting interviewed and THE RED WINGS HAD LOST THE GAME!!!!!
Unbelievable!!! And now, it'll be be extremely demoralizing for Detroit. They were leading by two goals with only a few minutes left to play, enroute to a commanding 3-1 lead in their series. But their bubble got deflated & the series is now tied 2-2 instead of them leading 3-1. What total change in momentum!!!!
My guess is that the Babcock family's bags are already packed & he'll soon sign with someone else (who knows....maybe Edmonton, with McTavish being nothing but Babcock & Chiarelli's puppet?) within a couple of weeks after being eliminated by Tampa.
p.s. Again today, a hockey panel on a hockey talk show referred to the Bruins as being complete idiots for getting rid of such a good hockey man.
