    WCSF Game 1 GDT: Red Wings 4, Avalanche 3

    I hate it when a top opposition guy like Forsberg is out, but here we go.

    They were probably instructed to not favor Detroit and are overdoing it.

    Yeah, even if asked Babs would've said "well those things happen both ways and you have to keep going"

    I don't think he can play right unless there's a certain amount of pressure on him. This is the best he's played all year.

    1/6 GTD: Red Wings 3, Blackhawks 1

    It IS pretty ridiculous that 6 of our 8 losses have been at the hands of 2 damn teams.

    12/29 GDT: Red Wings 4, Coyotes 2

    Still off topic after another win, but for anybody who may care the song I was looking for is Crowd Chant by none other than Joe Satriani. I found out at, of all places, a Coyotes forum site

    Thanks, but that's not the one. I was thinking of the one everybody sings along with answeing woh oh oh oh if that makes any sense.

    This game is obviously far from over, but I wasn't buyin the Wings will run away with this game thing. Speaking of the music, does any body know what that song is with alternating guitar and answering crowd that we hear everywhere?

    Case in point. If I heard right (was working out) Washington was beating Ottawa 4 zip though I think it's 4-2 now.

    I wish I had more time to be here, I really like this forum. I believe it's a mistake to write any team in this league off on any given night. Phoenix didn't make it too easy last game. As for playing without Hank and Homer (don't forget Malts on the PK) it just shows how deep and versatile our team is that the holes get filled, guys step up and we continue to win.

    enough is ENUFF! Crosby

    OK, I just wanted to take this opportunity to report that I am now officially tired of hearing about Sydney Crosby

    As soon as I get a chance I will give a proper response to the very reasoned statements here. I am buried in work trying to get this computer repair business going. I'm not ignoring you guys.

    enough is ENUFF! Crosby

    This is a fair question that deserves a fair answer. I'm 14 years older than you, but spent the entire 80's and early 90's in circumstances that precluded my following hockey (long story and no I wasn't in jail) so I did miss most of Gretzky's career. My point remains though. Football has been wildly popular and profitable forever because people love football. A temporary boost in some markets spurred by a superstar has done nothing to make hockey itself more palatable to non fans. Rule changes, ice layout changes, more fighting, less fighting, more scoring, less scoring etc. all misses the point that for some bizarre reason the populous at large just doesn't "get" what for me is the most unspeakably exciting sport in history. It ain't even close. Keep on hyping Crosby then. Maybe a long series of temporary boosts just to keep the sport alive is the best we can hope for. It seems that many of us keep thinking that if we can just package it right it'll catch on. In my opinion this way of thinking has proven itself false. Offering "super" broccoli to people who just don't like broccoli won't make them like it.

    enough is ENUFF! Crosby

    I'm not saying the league should or shouldn't necessarily do anything. I AM saying it's becoming wearisome to me personally. I am also saying that professional ice hockey has had decades to showcase it's wares and it's probably as popular as it will ever be in any of our lifetimes even if every player were clones of Gretzky and Crosby. For a somewhat flawed illustration, I know who David Beckham is, can't help it. I respect his talent and the athleticism required for all who excel at that game, but will never watch it because it does nothing for me. The general US public is in that same boat with Crosby, or anybody else, when it comes to NHL hockey. It is what it is. Look, I CANNOT for the life of me understand why more folks don't love hockey like I do, but thery don't. Treating Sydney Crosby like the 4th person of the Christian Godhead will not change that.

    12/10 GDT: Red Wings 2, Predators 1

    Osgood definitely won this game for us. With the possible exception of Leclaire I don't know if any net minder in the league is playing better at the moment. Man will the boys need this day off tomorrow.

    This last 5 is going to last forever if we continue to play it in our own zone like this
