lets see a complete game all around. I expect us to put solid pressure on their d all night and i can't see us not coming out on top. 3-1 wings. LGW!!!!

LGW!!!!!!

LGW!!!!!

pray

bahahaha roberto bernstein is soooo jokes

f*** you shane doan!!! ahahahaha kronner!!!

I heard that cleerie originally started the joke

wing come out quick and win decisively in a hard fought battle. 6-2. Close until the third and then we pull away. I don't see a reason why we wouldn't be able to deal with their physicality again tonight. Quick question: im growing a playoff beard, but is a haircut okay for my head hair - not touching the beard?

seems like phoenix's main problem is maybe playing too physical at times. they go barreling into the corner not concerned about the puck and our guys are just smartly rolling away with the puck and clearing the zone. i disagree with an earlier poster about the wings getting more help with the calls. did you see the crosscheck on cleary or the interference on eaves. those two NEED to be called. then there was all kinds of little things they missed too. we win though. one more to go.

refs arent killing us with bad calls. but they have made some serious no calls tonight. like 4 or 5 obvious ones.

lets ******* do this!

gotta come out an assert dominance early. i don't see us letting phoenix back in. LGW! send them to Winnipeg!!!

I think if the nhl wants to be legit, they need to discipline their refs like in soccer. if ur a s***ty ref u dont get to call big games and u get called out for it. i can't see how these guys keep their jobs other than bettman loves it. i want to think bettman doesn't instruct the officials to do anything other than ref, but its hard to imagine that when they still have their jobs after countless bad calls. i can understand accidental bad calls, but if its in a refs history, then they need to go. There should be a history repeats itself video of 5on3's against detroit in the playoffs.

AGREED. you rarely see detroit get handed a game by the refs. this is an attempt to get some more interest in the game. uneducated people who have no idea what they are watching could get real excited when a team makes a comeback.

The thing that bothers me though is that the reffing will only get worse in phoenix. just saying. if im this mad now i should probably take a step back for the next two games.

How great was the abby hit on doan. I literally got up and yelled f*** u at the tv.

not to mention the no calls on the massive hooks they put on eaves busting in with helm. that was the end of the game if detroit got a pp.

ps. hopefully jovobitch is out for a long time. i hate that *******. bitchass can't take a hit. but he'll grab someone's face and not take a penalty for that. what about the fil call?

It would be nice if when we got down in games that we could count on the referees to even things up for us.......

there should be referees that referee the refs on the ice, and if they make bad calls and try swaying a game, they get put in the box for a while to think about what they did.

seems like bettman's nhl does not exist with 5 on 5 hockey. from his referee handbook: "there MUST be a pp for the losing team at all times until they tie it up."
