heads up, Wings. The Pens can do what they want, and it's OK. Keep your heads on a swivel out there!!

Abby's a Wing. Hitting them in the head is OK.

what exactly does it take to rate an actual injury to a Red Wings, that's different from hits on players in the rest of the league?

there will probably be no suspension on the Abby hit by Engelland. It's open season on Red Wings heads this season... everybody have at it!!! Nothing will happen in terms of actual discipline.

Could have kept Flip. So sad. I wish Weiss no ill, but hopefully he will come back energized and remember what he's supposed to do out there.

We're tied with them for 14th in the NHL? I didn't know that! Let's go, Red Wings, smack down at the Joe tonight! De-flower Flower, OK, Gus Gus and Tater and Mule and Alfie? Or whoever else cares to contribute a goal or 3? No OT or SO, please... Thanks for the cool GDT, Mike! Awesome job, as always!!

Draper would have been great! He's always made me laugh, he's very clever and comfortable with the media. So was Ozzie, though, when he played. I have wondered what his issues are with the on-air situation, but then again - he's a goalie. By definition, they're all odd - perhaps Ozzie less so than most? They all seem to be different people on the ice hiding behind their masks and clad in hockey armour. Maybe that's it. Put a helmet on him. I am a raving Mickey-Maniac, so I am not truly happy unless I hear his voice on the broadcast. But I can see how he is relieved to not be traveling as much, perhaps. I am really happy I met him last year when the Wings were in Nashville. Aside from meeting Z, Lids, and Dom (years ago), getting to meet Mickey might have been my favorite meet-the-Red-Wing moment.

It's because they are all so OLD. oh, wait... not they're not. We do seem to have more than our share of injuries. Kudos to those who bought WC jerseys of players who may not be there for reasons out of anyone's control. It still supports the team, and the player. I wish Jimmy a speedy recovery, so he can come back and show everyone he's still the man. I love Monster -- he's doing what he's supposed to do - play like a champ as the back up, when he's needed.

stick, no likey that little jar thingie. tennies or sneakers?

just a little. I am deficient in most languages, aside from English, which I am pretty good at... she said ungrammatically. LOL~ The person below me is frugal.

Tell Flip I said hi.

Best burger I've had in a long time, at Hockeytown Cafe. I figured it was just for the experience, but it was good! And since I don't get to go to Motown often, I thought it was worth it. ET Wing: I sent you a PM, check the little envelope in the upper right hand of your screen.

Val is going to score a triple hat trick on this team on Thursday! Weiss did nothing to show me he is happy to be a Wing. Again. So it goes...

Younger, much younger. I feel dirty oogling Wings who have seen fewer years than some shoes I own. chipmunk or squirrel?

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/jonas-gustavsson-not-starting-goalie-detroit-red-wings-153900582--nhl.html Howard is #1 in Detroit, I agree with what this guy is saying... in fact, I've said most of it at one time or another. I love Monster, too, don't get me wrong - but he's the back up.

I do, I am re-reading a set of English mysteries by Elizabeth George at the moment... well, not at this moment. I am at work. The person below me comes into the LGW forum for a break from work.

that too. The person below me just wonders as they wander.

I am the worst joke-teller and only know 2 or 3. But I prefer wry, punny, clever jokes to dirty ones. rake the leaves in stages or let them all fall first?

I used to. I had a 12-foot tall snowman but I gave it away to my neighbors who have children. It seemed more appropriate. The person below me is ready for the holidays to be over.

I don't think so. Tatar and Nyquist had no shots on goal. Wings pretty much handed Florida two points.

Hasek used to scoop up the puck and fire it out of the zone like he was hitting a baseball. I miss that.

4 points in 24 games, and hasn't scored since October 14th. This, for four years, is unfortunate. To say the least.

yet another unfortunate situation, then.

Can we waive Weiss?

this isn't Howie vs Monster, IMO. But the effort from the team - or lack thereof - is a factor in wins and losses.
