See, this is what drives me nuts about getting a point for an OTL. Chicago is 18-8-4 with 40 pts while the Wings are 19-9-1 with 39 pts. Chicago leads the division. Chicago has lost 2 more games than the Wings and won 1 less, yet they are ahead in the standings because 4 of their losses came in extra time.

I love this kid. Just as Mick said last night...it's hard to take him out of the lineup. I don't think he is going anywhere for a while.

I can hear it now if this one goes the wrong way....'we beat you without our top guys, we'd destroy you with them' blah blah. Put thy skate to thee throat and crush 'em boys!

2 games... /s

Cuz it's cheaper to buy a new truck than it is to get custom embroidery and stickers...looks like a red Dodge to me. It's like when dealerships give you a $50 gift certificate to Outback with every new car purchase. Yeah, that's motivation.

I typically stick with Wings gear myself, or alternate gear for Wings players: see Rafalski USA jersey. The only non-wing item I own is a Miller USA jersey.

Of course there will not be.

Ya, I get that, I just don't really agree I guess. I understand you get called even for trying to do it; an attempt is a clear indication of intent (e.g. attempted murder).

I'm not fooled at all, just unclear of what constitutes a spear. To me, spear implies the act of spearing at something...like spearing a fish. This is more like a slashing or swinging motion than stabbing. I think of a spear more like what Talbot did to Osgood. Either way, we're arguing semantics, which I didn't mean to do. Just wanted clarification on the spear.

You mean this one? As for Ovie....is the conclusion he did that on purpose? I thought a spear was when you stabbed at a player? Looked incidental to me....but I guess it's not a stretch to think he could of done it on purpose.

To be fair, the title was hard to interpret. Honestly, it threw me for a loop initially. Either way, I don't care, and it's been changed, so it's a moot point. On that note, wasn't his hearing today at like 2 or 3? I can't find any updates regarding what happened.

Backes has pissed me off ever since his 4 goal game a few years ago against us. I hope they don't let him run at our guys all night again like last time we played the BBB.

You didn't say you were mad, you illustrated it by stating Miller should 'grow a ******* set' and letting emotion get in the way of your linguistics. At any rate...Tootoo got the Shanaban: http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=605024

Got a name for the place?

What did Miller do to Lucic? The slash while he was sitting on his ass after being freight trained? Out of all this, that is what you are mad about? LMAO Grow a ******* set? Looks like he did when he started pounding on Tootoo after getting run over in his first game back. Seriously, what the f*** do you expect him to do? I want to see you get freight trained, then you can 'grow a ******* set' and sit there and ***** about it and see where that gets you. Having said that...I don't think Tootoo intended to run Miller. Albeit, the onus is on the skater to make sure he has an out instead of just barreling through the goalie, so technically speaking, he is responsible for this.

That's ******* stupid, if they suspend him I'm going to be pissed.

Mastercard PayPass anyone.....?

How about a non-mobile link? http://www.nesn.com/2011/12/tampa-bay-lightning-microchipped-jerseys-help-increase-season-ticket-sales.html

He was praising the Wings, he did say something like..."slow change for Tampa, good change for the Wings." However, I was kind of caught off guard when he made mention of the 8 guys on the ice...maybe he was pointing out they had a good wholesale change? It's not too many men just because they are all on the ice, only if they affect the play.

He did last night.

I figured they would send Brunny down last night to avoid him having to clear waivers again. IIRC he would have to clear waivers from today on if he were sent down or called up.

I'm soft as hell too and I also hate it

No. Crosby is a kicker for the Green Bay Packers.

You're right, you didn't say Rinne is better than Jimmy, you implied it. However, you may as well have said it. And it can't be a fact until it happens. What you can call it is a prediction.
