    GAME 2: (4/15) Flames @ Red Wings

    I know it's ONLY game two,and just 5 minutes in,but so far this team is playing hungry. I t feels like they want another cup. Who knows how far we go this year,but so far I'am seeing a team with a jump I haven't seen since 2002!

    Non-Michigan fans: How did you become a Wings fan?

    I live in Arkansas,and my wife is from Flint Michigan. I never watched hockey,knew nothing about the game. Of course I heard of Wayne Gretzky,but other then him I knew nothing about the sport. If someone would have said the Detroit Red Wings to me,before I meet her I would have been who? We started dating at the beginning of the 98 run,like a couple weeks before. She had just moved her like 3 months before. She moved here with her mom,after she got divorced. She wouldn't miss a wings game. At first I just did my own thing while she watched. About the time the finals came around we got a lot closer. I watched every single game of the finals against the Caps Just so I could be with her. I remember Yzerman placing the cup in Konstantinovs lap,I looked over at my wife "girl friend then" to ask who this guy was again. Both there eyes where filled with tears. I remember thinking that was a lot of passion over someone you never knew. I asked her about it after she pulled her self togather. She told me I can't explain it,you would have just had to follow this team the last couple years and know what they went through. I've been a fan of sports before,and remember when my college team finally won the big dance in 94, the Arkansas Razorbacks. It felt so awesome,but I never remember crying,or having a sence of the passion I seen from her and her mother that night. We got married later the next year,and I just got hooked! By the end of the 99 season I was hooked.it's kinda funny,I might be a bigger Wings fan now then her. I had a few tears after the 2002 run. That was the first cup for me as a Wings fan. If not for the wife,I would have never known the passion of being a Red Wings fan. Like I said,10 years ago I would have been who are the Detroit red Wings again? LOL

    If you go six months without rain,does a drop end the drought? I need to see him get 5 or more points in this best of 7 to say that! But thats just me.

    Dish Network and the Playoffs

    I don't understand that either! I have so many MLB games blacked out on ESPN on Dish! I've also had a couple NHL games blacked out on VS! I had Directv before for 5 years plus! I've never seen a game blacked out on ESPN in my life until i got Dish Network! I'am switching back to Directv this summer,I already paid for the center ice on Dish! After the playoffs Ill be going back to Directv!

    Wings acquire D Cory Cross from Penguins

    We should have just keep what we had! This is NO improvement.If we weren't going to get a starter what was the point?
