Engblom is a ******, his balding mullet is a testament to that

I just hope he's not playing injured

we seem to be continuing the Jekyl & Hyde act, absolutely no momentum carry-over from last game we're reacting and not initiating anything out there also, what's up with the lights? it's not a night club

none of our d-men had much of a positive impact imo; Nick can't do what he once did anymore, we need a full effort from the D but we are not getting it

hope Babcock wises up earlier than he usually does and mixes the lines up, esp. if Helm is gonna be out again for a while; someone said bring Nyqvist up, I second that; hell, bench Corey Emmerton and his uselessness and bring Sheahan up, at least he's big

absolutely agree

he was on the ice for all 3 goals and looked horrible all night, hope he does indeed bolt for the west coast in the summer; to me he turned one decent playoff run in '08 into a 4 yr. $15mil pile of s***... mediocre s***

If it were one of Nashville's scrubs that did it they might get a game or two, but since it was Weber he might get a fine but will not be suspended. Anyone remember the 2nd round in '09 when Niedermayer gave Datsyuk a blatant elbow to the head at the end of game 6?(he of course faced no discipline whatsoever) Bettman will not suspend any star player unless he absolutely cannot avoid it oh, and Weber won't face any reprisal from any Wings' player either, this team doesn't have anybody for that

I bet Torts is saying to himself, "It was worth it."

maybe the refs were too dumbfounded by Clowe's jack-assery to call anything, hopefully others like Clowe don't take this idea and run with it, and if they do, they will actually get caught and pay for it; should be a 2 minute penalty for interference and another 2 minutes for unsportsmanlike conduct to give the opposing team a 5-on-3

of the choices listed the Larionov 3OT goal is my favorite, for him to have had that much patience that late in the game with so much on the line was truly epic, it's like he just said, "Ok enough of this crap, I need to end this so I can get my old ass to bed" also, for some reason I always think of Freddy Olausson's OT goal in game 3 in Colorado, probably just b/c it was so unexpected that he scored the way he did, beating Roy from the blue line low to the glove side iirc- my brother and I yelled super-freakin' loud; also the surreal feeling of being up 4-0 in the 1st period of game 7 like a previous poster said, though it made me paranoid and think something else bizarre would happen like the Avs would explode for a bunch of goals too and there would be a wild 9-8 type score, which would have been awesome as long as we had the 9, but I was so nervous before that game that if it had been that crazy I probably would have had about 10,000 heart attacks

I hope we go all out for Parise, only knocks on him are he's another left-handed shot, has had a major injury in the past, and is not very big but his talent level and work ethic are both awesome and he's still young(will be 28 in the summer); assuming we let Hudler and Homer walk we should have enough $ to compete with all the other offers he's sure to get only way we'd even try with Suter is if Lidstrom hangs 'em up, and even then it's unlikely we have Ericsson, Kronwall, Smith, White, and Kindl all signed for next year and if we do indeed re-sign Quincey that's 6 already, and if Lidstrom does come back then all we would need is a little more depth wouldn't want Semin unless he came real cheap and short-term, too many people have said the same thing about his crappy work-ethic/desire but I would be interested to see what Pavel could do for his numbers, but he'll still probably get a ridiculous offer from some GM based on past performances that we would scoff at

so we're looking at something like: Bert-Dats-Gus Flip-Z-Happy Miller-Abs-Cleary Homer-Emmerton-Mursak Kronner-Stu Qman-White Janik-Smith Conks Pearce yeah we'll need the hockey gods to smile on us on Broadway

IF Howard's not out for long and IF Nick and Big E return soon it should help the defense at least, then White can get back to riding coattails and Smith won't have to play as many minutes(avg. 15:30) since he's obviously not quite ready for that much responsibility yet

he probably forgot his last name isn't Malkin or Crosby

but on the bright side, Nashville is losing at home to the Oilers

capgeek.com you can pull up a list of UFA for next year

we keep up this kind of play and it won't matter who we match up against

if any team was overdue to stop sucking...

maybe the Wings are just confused as to what time of year it is, with all the AHLers around maybe they think it's the pre-season and that's why they don't seem to care?

yes, but unfortunately so was the opposition's

need to channel some '98 magic here

we can't buy, borrow, steal, rent, lease, or in any other way acquire a freakin' break!

a shorty here would be epic not sayin' it'll happen, but it WOULD be epic iirc correctly we have just 2 all year, one being an empty-netter by Stu and the other one was credited to Flip but was an own-goal by the Oilers

"not diggin' the 1 to 3", well said Wings lady
