Miss Wing Queen

It was still residual effects of that hit he took in our end. He had temporary amnesia and thought his name was Kyle Quincey!

You put my exact feelings into words. Guld för Sverige!

Hi all, I'm thinking of going to the game vs the Lightning on 2/8/14 but have never been to the Forum and had a few questions for any of you who may have been there: 1.) From Lightning fans I hear there is no bad seat, but any suggestions? 2.) Can fans go near ice level to watch the warm ups even if their seat is not down there (like at the Joe)? 3.) Any suggestions for parking? 4.) Do you know where the Red Wings stay and is there a spot to catch them for autographs near the arena? 5.) Any other suggestions for my visit? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the tips! I'll be there in 321 in my red Osgood jersey!

I was wondering why Kindl has been in this game and last over Lashoff. Dare we hope he is being showcased for a trade?

Well, at least someone today is showing he has some Swedish (meat)balls!

I see Jimmy getting pulled, not because of his play, but to give a wake up call to this team. Don't think it will work though.

Yes, you can. I asked the door ushers on Monday, and they can.

Cleary brainwashed Smith into acting like his old self for a brief second and passing it out center in front of the goal right onto Chicago's stick that cost us the goal.

That's the first time in a loooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggg while that I actually enjoyed a shootout. Wish I could have seen this on Monday, but a win is great! If they somehow still let Patty go at the end of this season and keep Cleary, they're dumber than I thought. P.S. Really like Glendening more and more. I think he looks like Helm when he first came up.

Well, I had the luck of being 5'4" surrounded by giants and right next to the stairs (on my right) with people constantly walking up and down. I'm pretty sure this is me, though, because I recognize my hat and eyebrows!

Great GDT! Love GusGus as Veronica Corningstone, although he doesn't deserve to be lumped in with the others. The best parts of your GDTs are always the fine prints. "Shakier than Michael J. Fox": so bad it's good! Go Wings!!

Take home was around $75K.

Great choice for a jersey. I was considering what to get for my next one, and since I've been a Tats fan since he first came to camp in 2009, I've been leaning towards a #21 for a while now.

Just FYI: Bob Duff will be at Novi Public Library on 12/14 from 1-3pm reading from his book and doing signings. Check out their website for more info: novilibrary.org.

I say we have the team sit out the next game, forfeit that game (we'd be losing the 2 pts anyway), and have this team go for group psych therapy to get these mental issues worked out. Maybe then they can get back to playing hockey instead of slugging around like empty shells.

Ozzie is a little on the dry side but improving. Darren Elliot was the same when he started--very straight forward--and look how far he's come. He actually cracks a smile now and then. Seriously, though, I'd say just give him time. I do like how he talks up all the GR kids. The only thing that drives me nuts is that he says Franzen like Pierre McGuire does, and I hate being reminded of that dou*che more than is necessary, especially when I don't have to suffer through games on NBC. You'd think having worked with Franzen for that many years and having a locker a couple spots down from him, Ozzie'd be able to pronounce it correctly! Must be a Canadian thing?

For two US teams?

I'm naturally a goalie girl and a Timmy fan. It still might be okay.

If it's Lundqvist, then I'm okay with it.

I am very pissed about the Cleary signing too because I love Tatar and really don't want to see him go anywhere else. Word around camp is that this was "a Babcock thing" to make sure Cleary was here. Don't know if it was more about locker room presence or what. Just irks the hell out of me either way. Plus, getting to see Tatar today in person, and having spoken to him a few times, he's just a really great kid who has a lot of potential.

I have an extra ticket for Sat.'s alumni game (9/14 7pm) and Sun.'s red and white game (9/15 11am) at training camp if anyone wants them or knows of someone that wants them. PM me if so. $25 each. You can pick them up in person in Traverse City. Sat.=Reserved Seating Sec D Row 4 Seat 11 Sun.=Reserved Seating Sec D Row 7 Seat 10

If Pav comes on, Homer's going to join him. Can you imagine the combination Swenglish and Englissian that would be flying through the airwaves? I'm still mad that they let Murphy go (at least without being truthful to the viewers), but I will enjoy Ozzie's humor.

I called this afternoon because it was showing sold out for 3/6. The lady I talked to at DRW said they were all sold right at 10am this morning. I don't know if they will have a second batch for tomorrow, but that would be great.
