Darren Helm scored an OT goal to send the Detroit Red Wings to the Stanley Cup finals. How big was Helm’s goal for the NHL?
Helm’s Goal was Huge
This save Mr Suck’s NHL from having over a week layoff before the finals. Mr Suck…you really owe Helm. Or maybe you were paying his paycheck? Is that why he made sure to score? 
Looking forward to seeing this Pens V Wing rematch this year…not even Gary Bettman can ruin this series.

Thanks Bettman for caving in to those jerks at NBC. Both teams worked their butts off for this moment & you decide to have 4 games in 6 days. Yeah, nice move.
Lets see how can one man pick who wins the stanley cup, thanks Bettman.
Wrong. He completely cheapened the greatest trophy in all of sports. Nothing compares to the disgrace this man has heaped on the NHL. Not the Blacksocks scandal, Pete Rose betting on his own team to win, or even Rosey Ruiz taking the subway during her running of the Boston Marathon. Because of his arrogant, selfserving and shortsighted handling of the Stanley Cup finals he will go down in history as one of the worst representatives of any major sport.
Fire Bettman _ and save the NHL!
I agree, Betman to the nhl is like billy was to Jimmy Carter, the greatest game in the world and Buttman wants to change it? There is so much AWESOME history in this game, everytime I walk into the hall of fame I still get goosebumps from all the Glory and history. You need to build on that “numbnuts” NOT CHANGE IT !! All you need is a big red nose and your wardrobe would be complete! You have the refs and the players so screwed up there are no two games called alike, and to a fan thats frustrating. How in the hell does the yotes go from last to first, Like the pens did, they were near bankruptcy ands now they have a cup? I think the U.S. aught to take control of the league, I mean we have 80% of the teams AND market and I love Ca but I thyink their gettin too big for their britches with this stuff!
