    TODD BER-TUZZI ! TODD BER-TUZZI !

    I can't prove this, but it seems to me that guys with four syllables in their names are the greatest athletes. I might just be buying into the chants. But ... guys without 4 syllables: Brett Lebda, Andreas Lilja, Robert Lang, Uwe Krupp, etc.

    Zetterberg Injury Update

    From MLive: I'll feel a lot better about that approach if it's 2-0 going to Glendale.

    Modano a healthy scratch

    I think this move is more about who the opponent is than what Modano has or has not done. It takes a good skating, gritty effort to beat Phoenix -- we saw that last year -- and Miller/Eaves/Draper all provide that high-energy type of grind-it-out play that Modano really doesn't.

    2/5 GDT: Red Wings 0 at Predators 3

    Getting 1 would be great at this point. At the moment, they look like they won't score again this season.

    2/2 GDT: Franzen 5 + Red Wings 2 (7) at Senators (5)

    Pull Howard.

    1/18 GDT: Red Wings 1 at Penguins 4

    Are you f'n kidding me? How was that different than the Conner play?

    Filppula out at least a week

    Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! Link

    1/8 GDT: Red Wings 2 at Canucks 1 (SO)

    By the way, did anyone think that losing Dats would be the key to turning into an awesome shootout team? Seems counter-intuitive, but whatever works.

    1/8 GDT: Red Wings 2 at Canucks 1 (SO)

    Great, great, great win. One of the best regular season wins I can remember.

    He's OUTSIDE THE CREASE. That's bulls***.

    This officiating can blow me. Blatant charge ignored.

    Ahhh shoot it!

    Howard back in tonight because Osgood's groin is bothering him. SOMEONE STRETCH THESE PLAYERS OUT BEFORE THE GAMES. MLive

    Stuart out 6-8 weeks with broken jaw

    3 games? That should be 5-7 at least. That was a dirty hit with intent to injure, not to mention that the puck wasn't at Stuart's feet or stick -- absolute garbage.

    12/27 GDT: Red Wings 4 at Avalanche 3 (OT)

    Time to Mursak Up and find a way to win.

    Cleary out 4 weeks w/fractured ankle

    If Hudler doesn't do squat for the next month and Mursak puts up 8 or 10 points, it should be entertaining around here.

    Cleary out 4 weeks w/fractured ankle

    It's Mursak up. Let's just pray this is the end of this and the Wings can at least keep the top spot in the Central until the guys get back.

    Cleary out 4 weeks w/fractured ankle

    I can't believe this is happening again.

    12/22 GDT: Canucks 4 at Red Wings 5 (OT)

    So much for stepping up without Pavs. They look like ass.

    12/22 GDT: Canucks 4 at Red Wings 5 (OT)

    Fu** you Stuart. Nice play idiot.

    12/22 GDT: Canucks 4 at Red Wings 5 (OT)

    Cleary just got tackled. This is ridiculous.

    12/22 GDT: Canucks 4 at Red Wings 5 (OT)

    Not one, but two guys standing untouched in front of the net. Nice.

    12/22 GDT: Canucks 4 at Red Wings 5 (OT)

    Maybe ... could just be a sprain and they're taking care ... sprain might be a week or two, but obviously much better scenario than a break or fracture. Everyone say their prayers.

    Holy crap, shoot it Franzen.
