    Winter Classic Prices Announced

    To answer your question, Yes this will sell out. My left nut isn't safe in the coming months. I will be at this game. No questions asked.

    Life isn't fair. Things like this should go to the most deserving.

    Vokoun moved to Pittsburgh for a 7th Round pick.

    Not really. Fluery actually had a pretty good season going 42-17 with a 2.36 GAA and a .913 SV% His playoff numbers weren't good at all but that series was a joke. They are just looking for someone to take a little load off Fleury. He is always going to be the starter there.

    10 years ago today (well, yesterday)

    I'll always remember that day. I had a little league baseball game. I believe I was 12. My dad brought this old school TV into the car and would honk every time the Wings scored and my whole team would start cheering especially because the honking was so frequent. I can't remember a damn thing about the baseball game I played but I don't think anyone can. I still have the newspaper from the next day at my home. What a game.

    Excited and Optimistic

    Please tell me how those three, especially Mursak in his short stints have "really been disappointing." Are you expecting them to score on every shift? Mursak brings the same speed and energy we see from Helm. There is no way if Nyquist pans out to his full potential, that he is a 3rd liner at best. If he adds a little strength to his game, he would compliment the 1st or 2nd line great next year. Who cares we lost in the first round. It wasn't our year. That doesn't mean we automatically don't have a good team. Do Pitt and Van have terrible teams as well?

    Just now finding out Datsyuk isn't in the running anymore... John ******* Tavares? Are there no marketing majors at the NHL section of EA sports? It was a perfect fit for #13 to be on NHL 13. I'm pissed. No Lidstrom and now Dats won't be on the cover... I'm buying FIFA instead of NHL this year.

    Thank you #5

    Hey rbkhockey43, did you make that picture? Do you mind if I post it on my FB? It's pretty awesome. As for Nick, there are no words in any language that can describe how much fans appreciated him. I shed a couple manly tears during the presser today. I'm not sad though, just feeling so honored to have been able to appreciate him as a player and a person while he was still playing and to this day. I never met him even though he lives down the street from my Ex-girlfriend. But I didn't need to meet him. He has done enough for the fans and this city. He has earned the right to do whatever he pleases and if that means moving back to Sweden then so be it. You know as the time passes, he will yearn to watch Red Wings hockey in person and will be back one day even if only for a game or two. Here's to all your future endeavors Nick. :beerbuddy:

    As a Chelsea fan for about 10 years now. This is the greatest victory I've witnessed. I'm speechless. Bayern just could not put them away and the stars were aligned for Chelsea. Absolutely amazing.

    Great showing from Smiley today. Going to need much more of that from him. The bats started to warm up today as well. Let's hope that can continue tomorrow against Sabathia.

    #4 Nashville Predators vs. #3 Phoenix Coyotes

    I'll watch it here and there. Phoenix could give Nashville trouble. I'll be rooting for the dogs.

    Honestly the only pitchers I am satisfied with at this point in the season are JV of course and Below who has been the only thing good coming out of the bullpen. Wilk going down is a good choice. He doesn't look ready yet. It's early though so I agree the offense should perk up with time and a healthy Fister will start to settle things down with the Starters. It's not going to get any easier though going to the Bronx for the weekend.

    What the hell happened to our pitching? Good lord. We might get swept by the Mariners.

    Hell yea! CFC through to the final. Torres finally starting to do something for this team. About 4 guys aren't going to be able to play in the final because of yellows or a red (Terry) but we can still win. I'm so pumped.

    How bout that Chelsea - Barca game in the first leg. 1-0 Chelsea headed to Spain for the second game.

    Well, at least we have the Tigs to fall back to after the Wings these days.

    WCQF Game 5 GDT : Red Wings 1 at Predators 2

    I'm not even mad. Game 4 was the series for me. A first round exit isn't going to cut it in Hockeytown though so there will be some changes to the roster in the off season. I bet we see a slightly different product out there next year. 1 more year Nick!

    What are the odds of winning this series now?

    Trotz lobbying for more goalie interference calls?

    This is a joke right... 24 posts since 2004 haha. But yea, that bowling bowl on a body can shove it.
