    Subtle inconsistency. I guess he needed to have a more active stick and take a DRIIIIVE! (Oh wait, I'm watching the MSG feed, not NBC).

    Not thrilled with the call, I have seen far worse holds let go far too frequently.

    Good on Smith sticking up for himself. Deslauriers was starting to run around a bit much.

    Eaves' fail a few seasons ago was worse, but at least it had the comedy factor.

    Just like a typical Wings shootout attempt. The Buffalo announcers called it a "pretty lame effort"

    Penalty shot coming up for Jurco.

    Pavel looking like he wanted a goal for himself that rush.

    Richards rips a sweet one timer off a nice feed from Pavel to draw first blood. Keep the pressure, guys!

    Great looking GDT pic as always. Just got in to see the start of the 2nd. Man, a shorty by Helm there would have been nice.

    12/10 GDT : Montreal Canadiens at Red Wings, 7:30 EST

    Let's Go Wings! No Price, no douchenozzle Gallagher to crash the crease for a bulls*** goal. Time for the D to bear down, Mrazek to lock it down, and for the offense to double down and light the Habs up. Heck, I'll be happy if they light a mup, whatever that is (for some reason I think it's the second empty net goal of a game, or at least that's what a couple of us came up with last season if I recall correctly), though I wouldn't have written a song about it like Fail Out Boy . Wings PP clicks for two, the Zetterbeard shows why it should be feared, Datsyuk dangles, Larkin has a three point, +2 night, the Goose gets loose, and Kronwall connects from the point. Looking forward to this game, a long overdue two points taken from the Habs. BTW, I'm really liking the vintage look of the GDT pic.

    What are the chances Larkin wins the Calder ?

    dylark is consistently making his case. Once Kane cools off, I think Panarin will as well. Larkin seems to be much more self-generating in terms of his offensive production rather than riding anyone's coat tails. The age difference is also going to come into play as well, I think. His plus-minus stat is becoming more and more impressive. Even though I take plus-minus with a grain of salt, his number relative to the rest of his team is quite telling, IMHO. If the Wing's offense continues to click the way it has, is Vladdy's mark of +60 from 95-96 in reach?

    Hey!

    Bummer I missed this one, but great to see a comeback win. Miller will be missed on the PK, but at least the offense is picking up to give our goalies some much deserved run support.

    Hey!

    Out with my wife after being away during the day for a gig and checking in from Starbucks. What's the short recap? Let's Go Wings!

    musicians that are red wing fans?

    Cheap applause that way. My gigs are in baby Pens and Baby Sens territory but I still rep the Wings fairly often. And my humblest thanks for the mention earlier in the thread.

    12/3 GDT : Arizona Coyotes at Red Wings, 7:30 EST

    IMHO, the Hanzal play on Pulkks was much dirtier, tripping him then driving him into the boards. Pulkks had no chance to brace for the hit. Tripping into the boards from that spot at speed can be dangerous enough even without a follow up boarding to make sure you hurt the guy. Nothing accidental on that at all. I didn't think Hanzal was that kind of a dirty player. The Miller hit, while unfortunate, I have less of a problem with, as Drew was pretty low to the ground. Though, Dahlbeck could have eased up instead of just blowing Drew up, I think if the teams were switched most would be arguing clean hit a la the Havsplat.

    Their jerseys aren't bad, but I couldn't pass up the chance to take a dig at the leafs.

    Another post for Crosby? They had nice chemistry a couple seasons ago.

    Legace in the studio for Ozzie? Lions game on the big screen here, some very somber packers fans in the house. Oh, btw, at the Christmas show rehearsal someone asked me what I thought of the elementary school "ugly sweater choir". I told them if they wanted ugly, they should get Maple Leafs jerseys.

    Just got out of a rehearsal for a gig this weekend. Checking in from B-dubs, the waitress put the game on as soon as she saw me. What's the short recap?

    Helm stood out to me as not having a great third and OT.

    Miller was caught in a landslide.... of awesome

    Now now, it's not his fault that Larkin is better.
