I will take Z and Datsyuk losing with dignity any day over those two whiners.

And for the better part of the 2003 series against the Ducks and the 2004 series against the Flames, it was all Detroit. But we lost those. A win is a win is a win. Edit: Fixed the dates.

Stating how much of an impact Yzerman was, is like stating how good bacon is. Everyone already knows, but no one minds hearing it

Schocked that this trade happened TODAY seeing as there were "TWOMORROWS" involved

I was transported back to 1997 for a moment, it was glorious.

Good thing for Howard that average is the JUCK FrkING POTT! I will say the penalty at the end was weak, but if any team deserves that kind of kick to the yambag in a karmic way, it's Anaheim.

Screw the emotion. Getzlaf, Perry and Selanne left Ducks without their best goal scorers when they were needed the most.

Even if it may not have been a legit call that's for the 4,000 times they've pulled that crap in the past in the last few minutes of the game. SO deserved!

Why do you do this?

Best game ever. A win and Getzlaf and Fairy crying at the end. Cannot ask for more lol.

It just feels like that tying goal is coming, or at minimum a penalty soon. These two points would be huge playing again tomorrow night.

Hrm... after that average thread about Howard, I guess Howard is to average what bacon is to meat.

I heard Daniels say somewhere, "Perry bent over". Can't get truer than that

Good showing by Tootoo.

Yay, Toots!

If Brun is a scratch, he must just need a rest or not be feeling well or have a minor injury they'd rather not disclose or is allergic to waterfowl or something because he hasn't been playing badly. No one has been so terribly bad that they would have to sit them to teach them a lesson.

Nyquist hasn't looked so hot at the NHL level, but he's been the best player in the entire AHL so yes...his tires will be fully pumped.

I like what Mickey said - that Tootoo "commands space".

God I hope Perry keeps that up against Smith and gets his brain pounded in.

Nice quick shot from Kindl, with Cleary proving my point!

WTF is the hate on Brunner for? They scratch Nyquist, Brunner, Tatar? Yet they kept Cleary, Franzen, Abby (yes I know he had a hatty but until that point?)...

Sadness for no Murph tonight.

Wings v. Ducks 2: Electric Boogaloo

I hate the entire "On Pace" argument when it comes to stuff like this.. we could go on a 10 game tear and shoot up the standings, we could go on a losing streak. Depends on who we are playing, how their goalie is playing, how much the opposing team is scoring and what kind of game Howard is bringing to the ice. Point being who the hell knows where we are going to sit once playoffs start, i'm in favor of just watching how the games unfold instead of picking apart useless stats and predicting our future. Fact: anything can happen in the remainder of the season. That's all we know.
