    The person below me game...

    can't say that I have, but now I do. The person below me has lots of vacation left at work and no time to take it all.

    Kronner, but I desperately wish to see Lils come back (healthy) too. I miss them both. spinach dip or hummas?

    Brodeur Ties Sawchuk

    You lose credibility points when you can't bother to spell a five-letter name correctly -- especially when it's a player you're bashing and one of the most storied goalies in the NHL. Sorry!! You have a lovely day, as well.

    Brodeur Ties Sawchuk

    Hasek would easily have won the Conn Smythe in 1999 (probably should have, anyway), if Gary hadn't given the Cup to Dallas. And Brodeur had to wait until Hasek "retired" to win a Vezina. Ask him. He said so himself. The back to back Hart and Vezina season does it for me. Hasek >>> than Brodeur. So is Roy.

    Darren McCarty officially retires.

    I notice they support his foundation's cause, the fight against multiple myeloma. McCarty Cancer Foundation I think people easily forget how much players like Darren give, off the ice, and on it. Best of luck, indeed. Hope to see him soon, in some capacity with the Wings organization.

    Darren McCarty officially retires.

    I love Mac and always will. As others have mentioned, I don't think about his later years and the troubles that found him. They're his personal issues, and he's addressed them and come out the better for it, I believe. He literally saved his own life -- or rather, the game that he loves and the men who love him (his Red Wing team mates) helped him save himself. I will remember his grit and determination, his clutch goals, his joyful face and gap-toothed grin, his wonderful sense of humor, his loyalty -- I will alway see him in my mind's eye, ushering the rest of the team off the ice after a hard-fought period. Last man through the door, every game he was out there. It was as if he was protecting them all, making sure no one could get to them - not on his watch. Mac has touched my heart so many times as a Wing, I can't count the instances anymore. All the best and may good luck follow you, where ever you go. Always a Red Wing to me, #25!! Excuse me while I shed a tear over yet another of my favorite guys leaving the game they made so special for me.

    12/6 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Rangers 1

    Ozzie looked shakey last night. Why not play Howard, since he's rested? Honestly, unless some other players show up -- and I don't have any reason to believe they will or that they will be any better than last night -- it won't matter who is in goal. I hope they come out playing hard tonight, but seriously, until we get a lot of players back from injury, I don't expect too much. Needless to say, Go, Wings!!

    solid, but I like the flashing ones outside in my shrubbery. Shrubbery!!! gift wrap you have to fold and tape and put ribbons on and all, or gift bags with tissue?

    Sandals are flip flops. Thongs are underwear, at least for some people. Personally, I've spent my life trying to prevent my underwear from going there. glasses or contacts?

    The person below me game...

    well, no. I have no idea what to do next, so I haven't picked a direction. I guess just not going backwards is good, right now. The person below me loves Pixar films.

    Jack is cool. No! I don't have to go to work. I took the day off. Of course, I am home cleaning and working harder than I would be answering the phone and staring at a computer all day... but still... The person below me needs a shower.

    Babcock blasts team as Wings help Oilers to victory

    well, with all the injuries, I tend to give them a lot of rope (sorry, Manny)... but he's right. They're better than this, and the fact that we only have two D men left out there worth a nickel shouldn't stop the rest of them from working harder than they have. I've thought for the last three or four games that the effort was lacking. I love the Wings, but I watch other teams' games, too. The difference in effort and speed is shocking, aside from the occasional burst of fabulousness from Z or Bert or Dats. Pasha needs to get selfish and start shooting instead of setting others up who don't finish. Anyone miss Sammy yet? I do.

    that's rather terrifying... The person below me wants Texas to lose on Saturday (v. Nebraska). This is for you, Jack!
