    Red Wings vs. Maple Leafs - October 11/2018

    Well when you're intoxicated, and it's cold out - the People Mover works just fine

    Wait a second... Your advice for me was to make some mostaccioli, and meatballs, and place it in a ziplock bag to sneak it in...Seems like this response had a bit more effort...Thanks for nuffin

    Maybe Gus needs to go on a hot dog diet?

    New arena construction updates

    You're an old school fan I recall the Chicago Stadium...Went to a handful of games there...Upon entering the that old barn - you were literally 'corralled' to your seat, or in my case standing room. There really wasn't a concourse per say - just an area where you went to the bathroom, and a few 'windows' for purchasing food/drinks/etc. Today the owners want to separate us from our $$$ once we enter their establishment; numerous options to pick, and choose from along the vast concourse.

    Yikes - I didn’t even notice Matthews wasn’t an alternate...Me thinks this might be an issue down the road. #MuricanHockeyPlayersMatter

    Willie Nylander still not signed (me thinks he'll either sign a 2 yr deal, or get signed/traded for a Dman)... Also - was watching the Leafs/Blackhawks game a few nights ago...Was a night remembering the late great Stan Mikita...HonoUrary faceoff saw Tavares, amd Toews...Got me thinking why not Matthews? Talk amongst yourselves...

    New arena construction updates

    QFT! I have yet to attend a game at the LCA, but I can only imagine what the cost of concessions are as well. I took the family to St.Louis for a game against the Sharks this past spring - much cheaper tickets, and 2 quality NHL teams played that night...I have no regrets.

    Red Wings vs. Maple Leafs - October 11/2018

    How can we possibly lose to these guys? As for places to go... My last visit was several years ago, and I stayed at the Greektown Casino/Hotel...Lots of bars/restaurants in the Greektown area, and getting to the LCA should not be an issue since there's the People Mover (light rail), and numerous bars have shuttle buses. Astoria Bakery is a must before you leave - that's if you got a sweet tooth.

    So now we know why Jimmy got fat - he needed the extra padding since the league wants smaller gear.

    Weird backhand.

    Even then I can see the cross check on Helm, and the interference behind Howard. Refs are really bad tonight...

    This goes out to my homie 'Cholo'... And a more 'interesting' version...

    Realistic Window to Competitiveness

    Agreed. Most of our guys have regressed since Blashill took over from Babcock, and last nights loss to the Jackets in OT (having Glendenning out there) seems pretty typical of his decision making...

    Predictions for the 2018-2019 NHL Season

    My bold prediction? I'll gain 10 pounds (if not more) during the season while I consume large quantities of beer/scotch/bourbon while sitting on my already fat a$$ cheering on our beloved Detroit Red Wings!

    Realistic Window to Competitiveness

    Regardless of what contracts the Wings are saddled with - it all boils down to the 'quality' of players we acquire via the draft for the next 2, or 3 seasons. i'm cautiously optimistic Holland can move another contract, or 2 in order to add more picks for these next 2 draft classes since they're projected to be deep like 2018.

    For all we know these rookies might actually make this team fun to watch...Run & gun hockey - high risk high reward.

    Could you imagine the potential for locker room drama if Tavares gets the C, and Matthews doesn't? #MuricanHockeyPlayersMatter

    I can do a pretty mean impression (voice) of Randy 'Macho Man' Savage. Why do I picture your special day sumthin like this...

    I thought the Yotes used to have pretty cheap tickets...And the puck would drop when you got to your seat.
