We just had Wings GM on the IC Hockey Show on TSN Radio 1290 in Winnipeg. He spoke about: The increase in scoring coming out of this seasons lockout. The similarities of the retirements of Yzerman and Lidstrom and how they effected the team. How the recently retired Tomas Holmstrom was such an effective player. Taking the time to fully develop a player. The evolution of Mike Babcock as a coach. Lengthening overtime. Playing games outside of their own time zone. To listen click here.

Sounds like old school Jets logo will just be a 3rd jersey.

If the move does happen (I expect it will) Down Goes Brown has some tips for Jets fans on what to changes have occurred in the NHL since 1996. Down Goes Brown: Guide to how the NHL has changed since the Jets left.

I understand from a travel standpoint why the Wings are much better off in the East, but as someone who has always preferred watching Western Conference games, I like the Wings playing in the West. Put me in the undecided category.

I like them. Mostly cause Glenn Healy hates them. It's all in good fun. Even Fischer said had it not been playoffs he would have had fun with it.

You can park along the river on W Jefferson Avenue and 8th avenue. (it's free & a 2 minute walk past the $10 parking lots).

Semin seems to have no heart.

Chicago and Vancouver are going to be exhausted for the 2nd round. 3 game 7's on Tuesday night. Can you say overload? Going to be a great night.

KTAR Radio (audio): Coyotes Captain Shane Doan talks about the end of the yotes’ season and his own future. Pretty good interview.

Little late to add this but interesting nonetheless; Same number of goals to wins games 1-4 in 1996 as were scored by winning team in 2011. Coincidence, I think not.

Wonder if this will be the same as what happened to the streaker I saw at Comerica when I was at the Tigers/Royals game on my bday (Sept 15) in 2009. The guy communicated with me (and the Security guard who tackled him actually). Turned out he didn't get prosecuted by anyone. They dropped the charges. And what are the chances someone at the Joe actually recognizes him?

I actually had to re-read the article as I thought it was a late attempt at an April Fools Joke. Insane asking opposing fans to help support your team. Go Wings.

Gotta love Teemu. Fighting at 40.

Nice goal by Cleary, good set up by Bertuzzi.

Worst fight I saw at the Joe in 3 years of attending games was between a Sharks fan and some Wings fans. But it didn't really get too bad. This sounded like it was a mini war. Perhaps you need to close bridge to Windsor when Leafs are in-town.

Not sure how many guys caught this during the game when Metric was on during the 2nd period intermission, I noticed what I thought was a guy sacking his buddy. Turns out it was; The video's gone kinda viral since Sunday (12,000+ hits, which for hockey is pretty decent). The sackee has even come forward. Might have him on the radio show this Saturday. Moral of the story: be aware when appearing on the jumbotron.

Good point. I figured we could squeeze them in for 5 minutes to discuss game and the sacking but I'm being out voted. Ah well. Will keep the shenanigans for the web site.

Thanks. It was one of those "did I just see what I thought I saw" moments. I still laugh every time I watch it. Apparently we've tracked down the 2 guys in the video. Question: Is there any value/point to having them on the radio? Would appreciate input.

Anyone going to tonight's bonus Giants/Vikings game? Wings must not be too happy. Game time differences are 10 minutes. Good to see the NFL care about the NHL schedule. lol

That's actually pathetic.

His agent. Appears catcher Russel Martin is next free agent that NY/Bos and apparently even Jays (likely using hometown pull) are trying for.
