After putting up a valiant effort in Game 5 of the Western Conference Championship, the Chicago Blackhawks fell to the mighty Detroit Red Wings by a score of 2-1 in OT last night. As a result, the Detroit Red Wings have advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals where they will face the Pittsburgh Penguins for the 2009 Stanley Cup. Here are a few celebratory pics from last night’s game:

I met up with my buds Dino and Russ at Barney’s Beanery so that we could watch the game together … I was happily surprised to see a sizable contingent of Red Wings fans decided to do the same. We all cheered together (stressed overtime together) and celebrated together when the Wings finally finished off the Blackhawks. A lot of yesterday’s luck came from Dino’s red hockey jersey … we Wings fans owe him many thanks :) Watching the game with those two really made the whole experience much more fun.

But next up, the Stanley Cup Finals!! Tickets went on sale for Game 1 of the Finals (which start in Detroit at the hallowed Joe Louis Arena) and I secured two tix so that Mark and I can go. David and I land in Detroit Friday night and we’ll be heading out for the game Sat night (then NIN Sunday night, etc.) I’m really looking forward to seeing my friends and family on this trip … but Lawd is our schedule packed. I’m hoping to have much to celebrate and enjoy while I am home next week ;) Go Wings!!
