Do you have to work, Mike? Or holiday obligations? My company Christmas dinner was last night. I was so happy it was Friday and not a game night. Sad, isn't it? I try to arrange my life around Wings schedule.

Homer is wearing a mic tonight. I literally cannot wait for this! Go, Wings!!

Woohoo! Love the early GDT, thanks, Mike! I am so pleased for Winnipegians (?) that they have a hockey team again. That said, let's crush their hopes and dreams, Wings! Poor Eaves. He looks like this now Can't wait to see again. Soon, get well quick, Patty.

that's an understatement!

Mike Babcock is worried about the penalty kill... I am worried about why we're having to kill penalties -- oh, Jonnie, I am looking at you! Mike Smith is a very good goalie, shouldn't underestimate him. Dallas got rid of him because Turco was jealous.

It could be the DA's office or just the local media speculating. What my local friend there told me is that when Barnaby beat up his wife's garage door - rather than her, one assumes - the authorities in Buffalo discussed deportation. I suspect Canada isn't pleased.

The Wings need someone in the locker room with some fire and will to win. As someone already said, they don't seem to get it.

No, I haven't, and I would like to go right now. It's cold outside. The person below me is OK with the NHL re-alignment (as if we can do anything about it!)

I think paying the snowplow guy to plow them in so they have to come out and hand-shovel their way of of their drive way is much more fun. Unless, you're a really good aimer and can make sure the snowballs all smack 'em in the head and then the snow falls down their backs under their collars, and into their underwear. Yes. I have thought this out. oops! Hi, Karen! Caramel, I think. chapped lips or itchy dry skin?

Everybody thank frwtv and give him a plus for streaming for us so faithfully. Three pages of posts asking for a stream are no more. and Jimmy's back in goal, so everybody kwitcherbitchin'

thanks for the GDT, Mike. This one is on Versus, right? I get to see it on TV, yay! Go, Wings!!!

on a more serious note, ESPN dropped Barnaby's contract today, as discussions are underway about deporting him back to Canada. link Wow, get some help, please.

You'd think he'd notice, but at 3:15AM and drunk - maybe not!

that's awesome! Come back and visit us more often, OK? I really wanted a Dallas Stars jersey with Zubov's name in Russian on it. He's gone now, and I never found the jersey. Zubie was my second favorite D man, behind Nick.

recurring theme. No one is surprised, if they ever paid any attention to this little twerp. Glad he didn't hurt anybody.

yes, probably. I will stop being reasonable, right now.

Howard might be enough of a workhorse to play every game this season, but I doubt it. Bad plan. What the TEAM needs to do is show up. Conklin kept the game close when the TEAM allowed 19 shots in the 2nd. I really wonder what some people around here are thinking?

They will win in St. Louis. Any word on who is in goal? I hope it's Conklin. The team needs to help him out and get him a win. He wasn't that bad last night, but lack of offense is going to kill us this season.

Nope, but I didn't want to get up at 5:30AM. It was cold in my house, despite my having caved in and turned on the furnace. The person below me is wearing red today.

I do that, and have to deal with myself -- but other than that, yes, I know people who complain while snarfing down fast food I wouldn't touch in a million years. Self-defeating. The person below me is already tired of hearing Christmas songs all day long.

Sundays after church, you would think those people would be better behaved, given where they just came from. Actually, around here, it's Friday night after work, the worst time to go to the grocery. I would have to need something pretty bad to go in there. Go to work on a cold rainy morning, or call in sick. (wish I had...)

I suppose it's Conklin's fault the Wings have been outshot 15-2 in this period? Yeah. OK, then. Wake up, Wings...

I know hockey is a rough sport, yadda yadda yadda. But if Tootoo ran Miller purposely, knowing he's coming off an injury caused by another suspension-worthy hit by another player, then Shanny should suspend Tootoo. Enough is enough. I don't mind hard-nosed hockey, I thought Vladdy was a god. But some of this pissy, chicken-s*** stuff they pass off for playing hard now is disgusting, and transparent. If you can't win through skill and hard work, and have to stoop to purposely running key players on the opposing team, then step away and give your spot on the roster to someone deserving, who will play the game the way it should be played. Just my opinion.

What a wonderful long life, 96 years old. Still, sorry to hear of Ken's loss, and thoughts and prayers to the family. Dave will do great in Ken's absence. RIP, Mr. Daniels.

He's still playing? I thought he was done last season, honestly.
