    Bert: (One of) the most hated athletes.

    This. I've seen the clip dozens, probably hundreds of times since the incident and I honestly believe his neck was broken during the initial second or so of the pile on. (though, obviously that could be wrong, nobody will ever know, but that is what it looked like to me) It makes me think of that hit Kronwall put on Havlat that KO'd him. The Hawks were so blinded with rage and looking to get vengeance that they totally forgot their teammate was laying there at their feet on the ice, unconscious and unable to move, and they damn near cut his neck open with their skate blades trying to fight and go after the Wings.

    Wings-Sharks game might be postponed tonight

    They were probably going on the assumption that the problem would be remedied in time.

    Pronger falls victim to "Avery Rule"

    Yep, the replay doesn't lie. If Kipper had been paying attention to the puck instead of hacking Pronger, he would have been able to see the shot coming.

    Operation curly fries.

    Probably? Anyone who would waste an 30min- and hour of their time and a couple bucks in gas, the annoyance of traffic, etc. just to get something for free worth a dollar has mental issues. Luckily there is an arbys literally within sight from my house. Oh, and have you ever had a jr. roast beef from arbys? I have, and I know its only a dollar, but I have never felt so ripped off buying a dollar menu item from a fast food joint as I did the couple times I got the jr. roast beef. I even gave them a second chance at a different location hoping the first one was a fluke. Both times, I essentially got an empty bun. There was the tiniest sliver of roast beef in the center of it, 95% bun. With the fries, at least you get a full little cardboard thing full of fried curly deliciousness.

    Other Teams, Love em? or Hate em?

    Not sure I can really say that I "hate" any team, though the one that I dislike the most iseasily Pittsburgh. Due to both that whiney little ***** Cindy and the way the league and refs not only seem to always rule in their favor, but almost seem to at time intentionally throw games so they win. I also dislike Anaheim for their goonish play, but not nearly as much as I dislike Pittsburgh.

    Games on FS-D+

    Yeah, but thats only if you happen to live in one of the few areas that has an HD channel for FS+. Out here FS+ airs on one of the community channels, so obviously there is no HD public access channel. (How would public access even be able to afford HD cameras? lol)

    Wings sporting an ad-badged jersey

    Bad analogy. I think people are more peaved by the company, not the ad patch itself. Is it really worth alienating thousands of fans by putting the name of a pyramid scheme scam "company" that has screwed over thousands and thousands of hard working and well meaning folks over the decades, just to save a couple hundred on practice jerseys?

    Wings sporting an ad-badged jersey

    Of all the companies, it had to be Amway? Seriously? ******* Amway?

    Quicken Loans and Fathead New Sponsors

    That has to do with the compression settings on the FSDs audio equipment, not the advertisers commercials themselves.

    11/5 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Oilers 1

    Fingers crossed. I hope the girl from BCSN I talked to on the phone yesterday was just getting her info from the unupdated programming guide when she told me they were not airing it. It'd tick me off a bit if they didn't air it. (I hate watching streams, my computer sucks, lol)

    Get ready folks, hitting is about to exit our game

    Elbow to the head, eh? Looks like a lot of people here failed anatomy class in grade school. I'll give it my best shot... OK kids, the elbow is the thing about halfway down your arm that bends back and forth. (the part Joe had tucked in during the hit) The shoulder is the part at the top of your arm by your head that pivots, and that your arm hangs down from. Say it with me class... Joes SHOULDER hit the head.

    11/5 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Oilers 1

    Any Toledo folks know if this game is airing on cable here, and if so, what channel its on?

    11/3 GDT: Red Wings 2 at Flames 1

    Sorry if this is an inappropriate place to ask this, but anyone in Toledo know what TV station tomorrows (friday) game is airing on? Or if it is airing at all? I called BCSN earlier and they said they're not airing it.

    Superimposed ads on the glass

    They did this for a few games last year, and it was extremely annoying, obnoxious and distracting. I thought they had chosen against it. Well, unfortunately it looks like they are back at it again. Does anyone know if this is something they plan to do with all the games now? Personally, I can't f'in stand them. As if having big ads on the ice, on the boards, as well as pop up ads on the tv screen wasn't enough...

    Superimposed ads on the glass

    The teams aren't doing it, Fox sports and the other stations are doing it. Neither the teams nor the NHL get any of that money. It goes to the station.

    Superimposed ads on the glass

    Just wait...they get worse. They used some of the more subtle ones last night. Probably trying to ease people into accepting them. Wait until they put up the giant flourescent green and yellow spartan ads, like they did last year. It is insanely distracting.

    Ritola will be traded or waived

    Funny, me and my buddy were talking a bit over a week ago and I told him I predict Ritola would be waived and that Tampa would pick him up due to Yzerman knowing Ritolas potential. He told me I was f'in crazy. I should have bet him some money on it, lol.

    10/1 Pre-season GDT: Toronto Maple Leafs at Red Wings

    Yep. Stupid BCSN. I sent them a couple angry emails last preseason for being one of the only FS+ stations to not only opt not to air the games , but to bump them for reruns of high school crap that nobody cares about. I see that did a whole lot of good, lol.

    Thanks!!!!! Finally a stream that is working for me.

    10/1 Pre-season GDT: Toronto Maple Leafs at Red Wings

    Does anyone have a good stream? That justintv or whatever it is doesn't seem to be working for me.

    10/1 Pre-season GDT: Toronto Maple Leafs at Red Wings

    Depends where you are at. I get to watch a crappy steam on my computer again since our FS+ channel has chosen to show re-runs of girls high school vollyball instead of the wings game. (just like they chose to do with all the scheduled preseason FS+ games last year too)
