@Bill_Roose: The #RedWings' next home win gives them 800 at JLA (since '79), where they've won more home games than any NHL team LGW!

Pics of the crime scene

One last picture I want to share from Friday. I walked quick so I could catch up to get them in frame. I'm trying to capture the spirit of the the thing

Eichel vs Larkin the future of team USA on display here should be a good one.

I think we are #1 overall in scoring since the point streak began. Thought I read we were averaging 3.5GPG. At the beginning of the season we were missing Datsyuk, Green and Richards all while trying to learn a new system. We will be fine.

What a f***ing game. Down 3-0, 3-1 with only a couple minutes left in the 3rd, 2 quick goals, tied it with less than a minute left. Ended up winning it in OT.

And if that doesn't convince you then these guys actually did a case by case analysis (8 specific plays broken down in one game) of why he's a good defensemen for the NHL. http://www.wingingitinmotown.com/2015/12/11/9828802/what-makes-detroit-red-wings-alexey-marchenko-so-good Forewarning - it's not an easy read.

He sure knows a thing or two about scoring on people who try to deny him HA CHA CHA

I'll just leave this here.

No skill Helm has been our best forward outside of Larkin the last 5 games.

I'm hoping Friday vs NJ was our letdown and we'll show up to play a full 60 today. Larkin is due. 4-2 Wings.

Thank god mrazek is playing. Go wings!

You not only misinterpreted Jimmemery's post but it looks like you missed out on a lot of what was said in it. I'm just going to keep it simple since that works better for you. 1. You're wrong. 2. Here's why. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Oduya 2 time Stanley cup winner that scores around 10 points in a season and 5 points last playoffs with a -4 rating. Oh and he's actually a good DEFENDER. Something defenseman are supposed to do. DEFENDDDDDDDDDDDDD. I cannot have laid that post out any more simple.

Still better than Nickelback.

Hah, I think it was Green. But still was hilarious - just side stepped without even looking at Tootoo.

What he said was "The only thing is, I think marchenko defense is the reason why we don't notice as much of their mistakes. I think Marchy is a future top four d man in the mold of oduya, or hjalmarsson from Chicago...not too many points, but a damn rock defensively and in transition." Did you even read what he wrote? He was emphasizing his defense.

He has no confidence in himself it seems, dude folds under pressure it seems which is terrible especially for a goalie.

He played another great game and once again was one of the best players on the ice tonight. He was denied on a breakaway opportunity, used his speed to blow by a defender and made a nice forehand backhand move, but couldn't quite squeak it through the fivehole. The chemistry between him and Athanasiou is unreal. Unfortunately AA left the game in the third and didn't return. Hopefully he's okay and is in the lineup tomorrow night. Mantha now has 10 points in his past 8 games, and is looking better and better each and every game. It still shocks me when he puts it in full gear, he can really move. Extremely fast for such a big body. The win streak has reached 10, which I believe ties the franchise record. They could break it tomorrow night in Iowa.

I thoroughly enjoy that band.the bassist from the blood brothers wore a wings jersey when they played at the majic stick a while back.(and its not like they were making enough money to buy a jersey from each city) There's quite a few more I know of, but they're basically cheating because the bands are all from Michigan.

What's funny is that Phil Kessel's about to get his 4th coach in 2015.. what a feat.

I haven't been through Baltimore in a while, but if you're comfortable there, you have absolutely nothing to fret about in Detroit. The area right there hasn't been as bad as its been made out to be for as long as I can remember. But like kickazz said, make sure your GPS is pre-programmed, because there are still some places 4/5 turns away from that area I'd be hesitant to roll through with a small(ish)child. I'd definitely take the tunnel from the Joe and only cross the border once, or you could always just stay at one of the hotels in Detroit and cross the border in the morning. Most the hotels down there will have secure overnight parking included in(or for a small extra fee) with the cost of the room. Hope you guys have a good time! Edit:If you get out there in time for a small wait and a full sit down meal, I'd recommend Slows bbq. It is ridiculously delicious, I've been there probably 20 times and everything I tried was very, very good.

Patrick Kane is the human equivalent of an ingrown toenail. Or diaper rash. Or restless leg syndrome. Or that cramp you get when you have really bad diarrhea. Yeah all of those things. But hey keep scoring those goals! It's so nice to be a professional athlete--you don't have to feel obligated to not be a garbage can person! *high five* I lol'd

He's a great guy both on and on the ice.
