So ******* sweet. And what I’ve now dubbed “The 2014 Regretful Defenceman Tour” continues. First Robidas, then Ehrhoff, now Niskanen. Bring on Boyle and the Rangers!!!!!!!

Wings fought hard and WON 4-2 sorry downer GO WINGS

Everyone saying we suck, remember that this game should be tied right now

But hiw did you get the beans ABOVE the frank?

I just... There's just no.. How could he.. What the... I don't...

Great job rallying back from a HORRIBLY officiated game. Fix it, NHL. *pats butts*

How about a Tatar goal?

Smith is really coming into his own

Smith has been great

This PP is horrible, and it looks like nothing has been changed up.

Beans and franks!

balls AND weiners

I wish we still had Maltby

If his mind and his body are gone and he is suffering, no, I don't think his family would want him to continue existing. Thankfully, the Howe children seem to be treating their dad's life with the respect that it deserves. I have the utmost respect for his family for the way they have cared for him in the twilight of his life. They have been honest and open about his condition. Caring for a dementia patient is physically, emotionally and financially draining. It's a shame they've had to go through this with both of their parents.

Line combos suck, and never kept to build chemistry. Maybe thats why the pp sucks. Being a 15 year hockey player, and defensemen.... i ve always hated when coach puts a forward on d for the pp. Want more scoring from the d? Use smith properly, Ditch kindl lashoff and ericsson, bring up oulette and Sproul and acquire cheap meaty dman to clear up the front of the net and block shots. Im not a fan of nestrasil, or miller for that matter. Swap them for weiss and callahan (seems more servicable then nestrasil) who am i, just a spectator though 😢

Ref with subtle interference on the Wings in the o-zone there. Edzo would be proud. Just like Price's bump took him out of position.

Am I the only one who checked to see if O'Halloran was one of the refs?

There's only so much medicine can do. In the case of a stroke, the brain tissue that is affected is literally dead already. Even for a younger person with access to the best medical care, teaching the surviving portion of the brain to literally relearn all those lost motor skills is a long and tough process. Add that to the fact that Howe also has been battling dementia for the past few years, and he's already quite old, and the odds aren't looking too great. I wish the guy the best, as well as his family, but unfortunately sometimes the best means a comfortable passing, surrounded by your loved ones. Obviously I hope that isn't the case and he rebounds from this.

Hopefully he goes quickly and peacefully.

Smith has been unreal tonight so far. Just looks so smooth out there. Nice hit reversal too - he does that a lot.

That's definitely up the with the Brad May no goal intent to blow the whistle on a straight shot in a few years back.

I've said this before. What more could they ask for?

Getting in shape so he can be traded back to Florida for Campbell
