Tell me why it has to be Detroit or Pittsburgh? Pittsburgh because of that fucking crybaby Crosby? NBC (Nothing But Crosby) would carry it right? Oh but if it is Detroit, it is for Hasek and the almighty Lidstrom. Emrick sucks their cocks.
Play a real fucking team worth playing like Ottawa, Rangers, fucking Philly or even Carolina! Teams we hate! Not Pittsburgh with the supposed second coming of Christ or fucking Detroit? We play them what…once a year? Why should get a cool game like that? I hate both fucking teams.

think about it… the nhl needs ratings, buffalo is a great hockey town so why not have it there… as for your opponent, its not as much as teams you hate, its what will draw the most viewers. being from pittsburgh aside, if i was just a hockey fan, why would i want to watch anyone but crosby play… he is one of the hottest players to see right now, hes already being billed as the next gretzky, and the savior of hockey. its all about publicity and what will bring the most viewers. no one cares to see philly or carolina play against buffalo, ill admit the rangers would be a good game to see, but the bright shining star right now is crosby, like it or not
i may of missed something, but where does detroit come into play ?
