that Turco video is the best thing... ever. I want Mule to skate past Pee-air and punch him out. That would be awesome. As for Babs, say whatever you like, buddy. You're the man.

Jimmy Howard traveled with the team to New York to receive treatment on his sore groin. What kind of treatment and why NYC? Or do we want to know the details? Show up, Wings, don't let your goalie suffer out there. Win it for Nick, who needs to come back as soon as (perfect) humanly possible.

of course! ice cream. I rarely ever have it, though. The person below me remembers (and has seen) the Alamo.

slightly tighter is usually better. As for baggy, for God's sake, pull those pants up - no one wants to see your underwear. map or GPS?

this makes me sad. I am going to my first game in 11 years at the Joe on March 30, and was really looking forward to seeing Helm play. Get well soon, kiddo.

Never a doubt. Pasha and Nick are the ones who steer this ship. We have some great young deckhands, but we all know who the Captain and first mate are.

Maybe Saturday... Hockeytown Cafe? I don't know Motown, so Dawn's our guide to fun and find dining. Cheli's Chili? With a side of Ozzie and Drapes, please!!

Water Cooler. Flip or Helm?

Nope, I don't have a "rusty bucket" list of places to visit. The person below me knows what a Hoosier is.

not really, it's OK. The person below me could use a massage for sore muscles right now.

not a huge fan of either, but popcorn on the odd occasion that I am in the mood. magic wand or genie with three wishes?

if you see this and it's not too late, the Wings stay at the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose (on South Market St). They sometimes will stop on the way out of the hotel to get on the bus and sign, if there aren't too many fans there. Good luck!!

Do stuffed snowmen count? I have a bunch of them. I also have a stuffed octopus, but want to find a real purple Al the Octopus when I am in Detroit this month. The person below me is going on a cool trip very soon.

oops, Hi, Karen!! Read. Although I am told I write well. Who's there?? Head, shoulders, knees or toes?

Very, although I don't consider myself a music buff or expert in any of them. Mozart (Magic Flute), Pink Floyd the Wall, Andrea Bocceli arias, and Steve Ray Vaughn selections are what's in my car right now. The person below me never has enough time anymore.

And Nashville has won a Cup. Same difference. Stevie is Detroit's son, and no one elses. He will never be anything except a Wing to anyone with a brain. TB is just proud to have an icon in their building. But I do agree that anyone who is delusional enough to claim an iota of his greatness as part of the Lightning franchise must work for (or be) Gary Bettman.

Pasha is officially second best, therefore not worthy of mention.

Of the four options (NBC, NBC Sports Network, CNBC and the NHL Network) I am able to access two - NBC and NBCSN/Versus. Some can't even get that. My cable company refuses to add NHL Network. As long as I can find a stream, I can at least know what's going on. Fingers crossed we reach the finals so I can actually see the games! Jollymania is right, too. Even when they're showing games, if Pittsburgh, or pretty much any other team is on against the Wings, they're going to show the other game, if history is a teacher.

I don't wear much jewelry and what I have is good silver or white gold, so ...probably. A lot of people are allergic to the nickel filler in cheap stuff. The person below me has more than one pet.

meanie! Wings have a lot of passengers right now. Pull up your hockey socks, put on your big boy hockey pants and win one, how about it?

I think those terms might be interchangeable in the Blues' case.

I hope you get your wish! I am going back to the Joe for the first time in 11 years at the end of the month. ChelisChick and I are meeting WizardofOz30 and ACalltoArms at the games. Motown may never be the same!! I know the team is missing Pasha and Nick out there, along with the rest of the injured... but I am so proud of them for what they've managed to do in spite of the tough situation. Strength in adversity! I am especially proud of Valtteri and how he's become the mini-Pasha we knew he could be. It all bodes well as we head toward the playoffs... just wait 'til everyone is back. I am in the minority but i love the late games, even with the time change making me in the mornings. I can get home for the entire game, and not risk speeding tickets or worse trying to get home.

I didn't but my friend here did... he's a mess, and frankly it gets a little wearing sometimes. I love him, but jeez, louise! Save the drama for your mama. The person below me had a hard time getting up this morning.

credit to my friend, Steve.

Nope. I guess the good side of that is no one ever has to miss work to take care of me. The person below me has a crick in their neck.
