James Howard gets undressed on another breakaway.

2 goals by defenseman. Could be worse :-).

Lashoff! Who knew?

Aside from the first PP, that was a very sound first period. Good opportunities... The shots have to start going in at some point. 4 periods, no goals. Who knew? Pierre just needs to go in and give Brunner a one on one coaching session and things will start coming together. Keep it up boys!

That was a solid (short) PK.

Man, I want to see Brunner bury one. He's already due.

<blockquote class='ipsBlockquote'data-author="gowings00" data-cid="2343339" data-time="1358817268"><p> Who?</p></blockquote> Yeah, did you guys not see his lazy ass skating out of the zone and turn it over? Man, this dude bums me out.

Nice shift, Tootoo, nice hustle, a takeaway and a good SOG.

So I guess since Emmerton is rocking #25, this rules out a Holland-esque McCarty reunion show? ;-)

Welcome back #17!

Brunner looks like he has a great shot, he just has to pull the trigger quicker.

Better PP, tough break Filp.

Could their Power Play be any worse?

That said, I was as pissed as the next person but I'm elated that this is finally happening. No way is the league going to survive another lost full season. At least we get 50ish games and can watch the Winter Classic in 2014.

Per Pavel Lysenkov (@plysenkov) on Twitter, Pavel will be playing with CSKA tomorrow. Since we're all ready for our hockey fix I guess we need to find ways to follow our players oversees. Does anyone have any idea or info where to find these games, highlights, articles etc to help better follow? I would definitely love to see how much all of these guys are going to dominate the KHL in what we hope will be a short stint.

2002 Olympics Czech Rep vs Can - Lemieux, Yzerman, Jagr, Pronger, Neidermayer, Hasek, Brodeur... The rest of the gang. I've only been to 3 NHL games, but... Ovechkin, Selanne, Lids, Datsyuk, Zetterberg and the rest of the 11-12 squad. I also got to see Scott Gomez around his one year anniversary of futility. Also, this thread is fun... But a line thread? Really?

Good for Jordan. He's one of the funniest young players in the league to watch.

Bertuzzi on his first stint in Detroit. I didn't understand why they traded for an oft injured player whose career was absolutely derailed by controversy. I don't put anything into the actual hit on Moore because I believe his intentions weren't to injure him. He's been a decent fit it turns out in both stints, but I could still do without him. I'm with the other posters on Cujo and Hatcher... It just seemed like they were grasping at that point.

I really hope Wings fans don't boo these dudes.

Sour grapes much? Both are stand up guys who signed with a team far from contending. It's not like they took off to Pittsburgh or Chicago.

Ssshhhhh, you saw what happened with sarcastic remarks about Sammy. It's like saying Beetlejuice 3x.

I approve, but would switch Goose and Semin.

This is a bit much...

3 mil per and NTC? Whaaaat? Hopefully Holland already knows what's ahead and this is just a depth signing.
