    Russian Youth Hockey Brawl

    Holy crap. Flying somersaults, diving tackles, kids sitting on each others backs pounding them in the back of the head. That was crazy. How about the whole team beat down on that one kid at the end? I don't even know what to say... And just so you know, in Soviet Russa, rap mutes you.

    Kane, Moulson, St. Louis up for Lady Byng

    Anyone notice the hand on that girl's arm in the white, like someone is pulling her away? I thought she had her arms crossed, but no. Weird things in photos.

    NHL penalties/suspensions for hits getting out of hand.

    Wow. Even for Torres, that was unwarranted.

    NHL penalties/suspensions for hits getting out of hand.

    If you want to avoid being hit, just keep putting yourself in vulnerable positions. Or is that what we are already seeing happen? Players will adjust to whatever works because that is what they do, compete. Whether that is diving, embellishing, or putting yourself in a vulnerable position because you know if you're hit, there will be a penalty coming to the other team. Easy peasy. They are seriously offering Torres in-person hearing for that? Ridiculous.
  10. Am I the only one who thinks we didn't play that bad as a team? For the most part anyways. Our D wasn't so great and we didn't throw enough rubber at Crawford, but I thought we were good in finishing our checks, being hungry on the puck, and we had good goaltending. Watching that game, I wasn't pissed off because Chicago dominated us; I wouldn't have made that conclusion. They played an overall better game than we did, but I've seen much worse on-ice products from the Wings this year than that. I liked our compete level.

    Bergeron, Datsyuk, Toews finalists for Selke

    I think I read he averaged 2m/game on the PK.
  12. What?! No trimming allowed!

    Bergeron, Datsyuk, Toews finalists for Selke

    I bet they give it to Toews.
  14. Just curious, why would you prefer to see a game in Detroit as opposed to Chicago, being a Hawks fan that is? I've been to plenty of away Detroit games and if I could have a choice where I saw them, it would definitely be in Detroit, even though we travel well and seem to have a home crowd at the games I attend. How are ticket prices in Chi compared to Det?

    Any tips on ways to tolerate the NBC media?

    That one is enough to ruin it. Edzo is horrible and shouldn't be providing color for his own team on a national channel. Ken Daniels called a few games last year, but you certainly won't hear him calling one of the Wings' games.

  17. WOOHOO! Bring on the Hawks! They gotta keep the momentum going and steal one in Chicago. LGRW!
  18. LETS GO RED WINGS!!! YOU GOT THIS!!!
  19. Let's do it boys! All or nothing, show us what you're made of. I'm still pissed about us giving up leads in 2 of our wins, but that doesn't matter tonight. LGMFRW!!!!! If the Tor/Bos game goes long, they will probably put the beginning of the Wings game on NHLN or CNBC, probably NHLN. That's what they have been doing all first round for the late games.
  20. If you can believe it, I had to leave right after the 3rd period. I didn't want to, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't pissed at the boys for the last few minutes of regulation. Not too long after I received a text "HOLY s***!!!!!!" Glad to see they had more tricks up their sleeve, even after that third period meltdown. Let's hope they have one more trick up that sleeve on Sunday.

    General Playoff Thread

    It's also the first ones where the team facing elimination wasn't down by 2 or more games, meaning these series have been closer and the teams match up better.

    Abby in for game 6... Who draws out?

    In what universe would we have ever imagined this to be an acceptable statement? Things are getting crazy!
