whew~ I thought for sure they'd find a way to take that goal away from us.

Goal. Big time. Give it up for Calder, he never stops working, does he?

41 SOG for Detroit. Bulin for Vezina 18 SOG for Hawks. I find myself muttering bad words a lot here, tonight. Calder? ?

Chi announcers just said Bert has a neck sprain. I don't know the difference, sprain vs. strain. Wikipedia, anyone? A sprain (from the French espraindre - to wring) is an injury which occurs to ligaments caused by a sudden overstretching (for the muscle injury, see strain) A strain is an injury to a muscle in which the muscle fibers tear as a result of overstretching. Strains are also colloquially known as pulled muscles. The equivalent injury to a ligament is a sprain. Neither sound great, actually.

atta boy, Ozzie!! Keep 'em in it, they can come back!! Go, WIngs!!

I don't know that I agree... have faith! This game's no example of how the Wings will play in the playoffs.

we are too busy fretting about Bert to answer you, sorry. No scheduled return, don't look for him on Saturday, though. Maybe for the first game of the playoffs, they say. But personally, I say second round, if at all. JMO.

a really bad one, apparently. Stars lost in OT to Columbus. Phooey... Who else, Rick Nash.

if you guys with Motown feed hear anything, let us know. Chicago is clueless.

Good job, Bobbysox!!

yeah, baybee.... HOMER!!! Good energy, it only took 30 shots!!

thanks, R... I am getting a little concerned. Maybe it's a small tweak and Babs told him to stay out so he doesn't make it worse (whatever is going on...)

Khabibulin, a save on Sammy. big deal, eh? They must come out a different team in the third, or write this one off. I love a great 4rd from the Wings, so I am hopeful!

he better not have hurt himself falling over Ozzie. Do you have the Detroit feed? They will say something about Bert sooner than these noo-noos on the Chicago feed, for sure.

*ignore*

Hawks are outplaying us, despite 23 -12 SOG difference (Wings - Hawks). Khabi for Vezina

we're making Khabi look a whole lot better than he is....

they will, in fact it won't surprise me to see them win it 3-2. Nice little set of saves by Oz, not remarked upon by the announcers.

neither can they. Is it me, or are the Wings fallng down all over the place tonight? They look drunk on some shifts.

they'll be OK. I sort of expected this, didn't you all?

lovely, the only guy who can actually score shorthanded is in the box. What did Drapes do, BTW?

nice, Ozzie, that was Bickel's very first NHL goal.

goal post saves St. Louis, almost 4-1.

Nashville's beating St. Louis like a rented mule right now. Bacashua seems like a neat guy, I hope your cuz kept in touch. Blackhawks intermission commentators = s

Ozzie wasn't in the goal, that may have been the problem. Bert didn't expect him to be where he was. And Nashville just scored again, 3-1 ... made Bachashua look like a fool.
