    Wings Seat Question

    I'm doing the exact same thign next year myself. It's gonna cost me a fortune, but will be well worth it. ($1200 to get as far as Toronto alone, plus bus fares from there). I am going to be going to Toronto for 3 weeks starting April 1st, but will be making the trip to Detroit for 4 days at some point to catch th Wings first 2 home games of the playoffs. i figure with travel, Hotel in Detroit, tickets to game, etc, im looking at well over $2000. Spending money will certainly more than double that LOL! By the way, any suggestions on a good hotel to stay that is near the Joe?

    Official LGW.com Game 2 GTG?

    Oh man that sounds so awesome, too bad I live all the way in Labrador Although, my cousin and I are planning a big trip for April next year, which will be based around going to see the Wings in the first round of the playoffs. I cannot wait!!!!! It's gonna cost me an arm and a leg (which will be extra bad being a student and all) but it is gonna be sooo worth it.

    2008 Photoshop War: Red Wings vs. Stars

    Too bad Hasek isn't in net for us And that "Chelios after a game" one was taken from the Avs board.... I must say though, that Fail Boat one got a laugh out of me. Nice work people

    TSN: Wings were "manhandled" by Ducks last yr

    Either way, last year Anaheim had the easier path to the 3rd round, where we had to go through Calgary and San Jose. We were injured going into the Anaheim series and still gave them a run for their money. I am proud of what the boys accomplished last year, and to see TSN say the s*** they have been saying pisses me off as a die hard hockey fan. I just don't understand why they can't state facts, like how much potential this series has to be epic. The two best teams in the west are about to clash, and all they can do is kiss the Stars ass. Nothing against the Stars, they are a great team, but so are the Wings. This series is going to be really good, and it would be nice for the "experts" to acknowledge that for once.

    TSN: Wings were "manhandled" by Ducks last yr

    Yeah I had to put up with TSN all evening (don't have a choice, work at a sports bar), and it really pissed me off with how much dissing of the Wings they've been doing. It is getting worse and worse as time goes on. If they want to predict Dallas to win, thats fine, because I personally think both teams have a 50/50 chance in this one. But they don't stop there, they go on to ridicule the Wings every chance they get. Dallas has more depth, Dallas has better goal tending, Dallas is more physical, etc etc etc. If they are going to preview a series, they should do a rundown of the strengths and weaknesses of each team and then predict a winner, not praise the hell out of one team and diss another by all but saying the only reason they got where they are to is because of who they faced in rounds 1 and 2. It really makes me question why non Wing fans think that the media kisses the Wings ass so much, because they couldn't be more wrong. If we win this series, it's because we've had it so easy and Dallas was worn out. If we lose, it's because Dallas is SOOOO much of a better team, and we are old and washed up had-beens. If we beat the Pens in the finals, it's because Crosby is injured. If we lose, the old/slow/s***ty goal tending garbage will continue. Another thing, there was one segment with Darren Dreger talking about Malkin. I swear to god he mentioned the guys name as many times as he could. "Evgeni Malkin can score goals, Evgeni Malkin can do this, Evgeni Malkin can do that, I want to make sweet love to Evgeni Malkin because I am a stupid biased prick, I like to picture Evgeni Malkin naked because he tickles my fancy, Evgeni Malkin floats my boat...." Sorry bout the rant, I had to get it out!! TSN=

    Burnside breaks down the WCF and picks the Wings in 7

    Yeah Morrow is flat out built for this time of the year. He's been machine out there. He is the one the Wings should worry about the most, along with Richards. No worries though, they will be seeing a lot of Hank and Dats
