Probably because Matt usually does it. I hope this is not indicative of how bad he feels.

Clowe got tossed too. Gee, I wonder who won on that one.

Gawd, I wouldn't wish that on any team. But in the last half of the third they pretty much gooned it up. We can hope the implosion continues, but it probably won't.

Naw, I think Zetts dove too.

Can the a-hole officials fine CBC? I'm sure glad they did it whatever happens.

I saw just one call in that game and it was a horrific one against the Habs. NO call. Period. I believe the Pits scored their second goal on that call.

It was also a major elbow by Thornton. I believe that's a no-no.

But the really really good thing happening right now is that Franzen is baaaack. And they can't corral both Bert and Franzen. Makes my heart sing.

Montreal beat the Pits 3-2.

Thanks for putting that on here. That's the main thing I'm worried about right now. Whew!

Well, mmmmm, OK! I had no idea mods had that much clout. Where ya been?!

You posters who are dumping on Ericsson, I'm thinking you'd better start sending good vibes his way? He may be playing a whole lot more of Stuart can't come back. Meanwhile I hope Rob Blake has a new crack in his ass and I hope his back starts acting up on him again because boyohboy has he earned it.

YEEEEEHAAAAAA!!!! And one of the OTHER most wondrous parts of those four goals is that there wasn't a damn thing Nabokov could have done about ANY of them!!!! And you gotta know that the Sharks are sitting on the bench thinking, "Oh, s***. Franzen's awake and kickin'". WE ARE BACK IN THIS SERIES!

Oh Wings, dear Wings don't create your own cage, get out on that ice and rage. There's nothing to gauge, you're on your home stage, it's a war that you have to wage. You've fought and you've bled, for this you were bred, so go with your heart and your head. That being said, you need not know dread so go tear the Sharks' game to shreds!

Ahright, ahready. I've fed the poor. I've healed the sick, I've come up with a plan for world peace. I've cleaned the mini-blinds and the bathrooms. I've vacuumed up 8 lbs. of dog hair. I.have.done.my.bit. :deal: GO, WINGS, DAMMIT! :colorbounce: :clap: :clap:

Wow. Not good news indeed. I truly hope he's feeling better soon. Probably a win by the Wings tonight couldn't hurt, ya know?!

I couldn't agree more that Homer gets screwed by the refs consistently. Calls that go against him are seldom called when players are pounding on him. However. Even Mickey said it last night. Homer was pushing his luck in and around the crease and if he didn't cool it he would be called (fair or not). They showed him pulling on somebody's jersey and trying to take him down in the Sharks' crease. I saw what I thought was a slash on the guy that took him down at another point in the game. Probably the same one you're all referring to. The player taking him down should have been called and was not. But the last thing Homer needed to do was to draw the ref's attention to himself. Mickey said it. Don't give the (*******) refs the chance to call you. I know there's a fine line about how to play the game with that in mind, but it was definitely good advice.

OH yeah. And what happens? We get a penalty.

If you're talking about the Holmstrom one, yeah. The idiot that pulled him down when the puck wasn't there should have been called by the other idiot, the ref. He wasn't. But Homer slashed him afterward and at that point the ref was like five feet away. NOT a good move.

The Wings have got to win more faceoffs. Period. Gary Oldman ain't a bad thing to be, OR model yourself after. I happen to think he's the best character actor out there.
