dat's sick

Didn't he win by like 1 vote last year? I definitely don't think he's a lock. He's crazy with the takeaways but I'm not sure it will be enough to make up for his decreased offensive output and PK time.

They do something similar to that in the Swedish Elite League. Can't say I'm a huge fan of that system. Picking your poison and all that..

Watched the game this morning. Phew. That was a nailbiter. Huge goals by Datsyuk and Holmstrom. Wings definitely deserved the win. Calgary played nothing but defense after they went up 1-0. I hope the guys start looking up towards 7th and higher now, leave this 8th/9th BS behind us once and for all.

Missed the first one but I guess I'll have to catch up: Detroit Filppula Zetterberg Datsyuk Calgary Bourque

No one went after Cooke when he destroyed Savard recently either.

Another chance to get some distance to 9th place. Don't mess this one up Wings! 4-1. Pav, Hank, Mule, Kronner.

Holy f***! Why must you do these things Ovie?? Brutal... such a dangerous hit. It was like Campbell had a huge target on his back that Ovi was aiming for all the way down towards the boards. Suspend him.. gotta give him a real punishment so he starts understanding that sometimes he has to let up.

This could be my worst weekend ever.

It's ridiculous how bad the East really is this year. And at the beginning of the year, people were saying that Phoenix, Colorado or LA would drop off... well we're still waiting.

^^

Aww man I missed the goal! But SWEET! Huge win. Now we'll at worst be 1 point behind the Flames going into the game against them. Thought the Wings played great puck-possession hockey in the 1st and 3rd periods. The 2nd was kinda terribad but let's forget about that.

Okay, a point atleast. That was absolutely vital. But please, please, please get the extra point!

PP! Let's do it!

Argh come on kill it off! Need to get a point atleast!

I'm so damn nervous. Please score Wings..

blah

******* Myers. Awesome move by Pav just before, going between the D. Fil and Hank look good. Homer with tons of energy. I like what I'm seeing.

Wow! Keep this going!!

Perfect start!

Goes without saying that we need to win this one.. a loss today and monday against Calgary and that could be it for us. That's how important every game is. 3-2 Wings. Franzen, Zetterberg, Datsyuk.

Maybe the Wings can trade up for a top 10 pick.. it's not really their style, but it might be worth it this year.

Friday: Pittsburgh @ New Jersey Tampa Bay @ Washington Minnesota @ Buffalo NY Rangers @ Atlanta Los Angeles @ Dallas Nashville @ Anaheim Saturday: Chicago @ Philadelphia Florida @ San Jose Edmonton @ Toronto Boston @ Montreal New Jersey @ NY Islanders Phoenix @ Carolina Buffalo @ Detroit St Louis @ Columbus Ottawa @ Vancouver Sunday: Washington @ Chicago Philadelphia @ NY Rangers Colorado @ Dallas Nashville @ Los Angeles Toronto @ NY Islanders Phoenix @ Atlanta Pittsburgh @ Tampa Bay St Louis @ Minnesota San Jose @ Anaheim Calgary @ Vancouver [x2]

Good win. Was afraid that late 1st period goal by the Wild would get the Wings on their heels, but they controlled the game well in the last 2 periods. Now please let this be the start of atleast a 3-game winning streak. No more win one, lose one crap.

Just gotta watch out for that 4th period breakdown.

Amazing goal! Mule is soooo damn good.
