Wings That Could Fly!

--(NHL Playoffs: DET vs. PHX)--


Well, the playoff season has begun...as well as the beards! Last night the NHL playoffs has kicked off as the Detroit Red Wings played the Phoenix Coyotes in the first series.


So, I came up with a conclusion; why the Detroit Red Wings and the Phoenix Coyotes should raise the "Holy Grail" in June.


Why??? Why the Red Wings?? The only team has Linstrom easily; the most experienced 41 year old and the most superior defense man in the NHL. Only one team has Datsyuk; the slickest two-way center man in the game. Only one team has Zetterberg; the bulldog with an offensive flair and an outstanding defensive instincts. The Wings lay with style that when they're healthy and working together its nearly impossible to stop. They don't dump the puck in so that their forwards can forcheck and pound; they dump puck in because its one of the best ways to start their offense. Detroit is a "puck obsession" team. The depth has in two-way forwards is remarkable and the defense is full of guys who can move the puck and take out the body. The Red Wings need to pound you because they wear you down with passing and puck retrieval. The answers to these questions are -- YES!! The Red Wings are back and they have the defense and the experience to go all the way AGAIN!


I was thinking..if the Coyotes win the series against the Red Wings..why should the Coyotes win the Stanley Cup? Here's my conclusion..


In order for the team Phoenix Coyotes to continue the fight for one battle; after another off the ice, it won't be long before they enjoy one heck of a celebration on the ice -- as the 2011 Stanley Cup Champions! Why??? Why the Phoenix Coyotes?? You cannot win a championship without goal-tending and a stingy defense. The Coyotes have both! The big uh-oh! The biggest question facing the Coyotes is undoubtedly their offense. The Coyotes have balance -- but its going to take "all-hands-on-deck" approach up front in order for their dream to come true! And here's the argument! The focus will likely be top-guns such as Vancouver, Detroit and San Jose; and let's not forget these Coyotes that they have won nearly 100 games in the past two regular seasons. The exclamation point will come to June as they will raise the Lord Stanley for the first time!


So into both of my conclusions...Will it be the Detroit Red Wings or the Phoenix Coyotes?? You decide; who shall win...!


GO DETROIT GO!
