    10/30 GDT : Ottawa Senators 3 at Red Wings 1

    Northeast PA. He did a heck of a job.... Laser tunnel in fog, projected ghosts on a scrim in a hallway, homemade animatronics props, it was pretty awesome. Without reading through the thread, I miss the butt pats after a win.... Hopefully the boys get angry and turn the Corel Center into a house of horrors for the Sens on the second half of the back to back.

    10/30 GDT : Ottawa Senators 3 at Red Wings 1

    I have to head out to a haunted house a student is putting on (my 1st chair bass I from districts this year and an all-state alternate last year). Here's hoping I come home to butt pats celebrating a monstrous ass-kicking of the Sens! Let's Go Wings!
  3. Wow, another loss to a trash team. I got in just in time for that call on Kindl. Were the refs that bad all night? The boys better find some offense and fast or it is going to be a long season.
  4. Trash call, period. Get it back, guys.
  5. Checking in from the road, had to run some errands and got a very late start due to having to deal with one of my daughter's chinchillas passing. The vet was wonderful, but she was beyond help. I should be home in time for the 4rd. What's the short recap thus far?

    10/24 GDT : Red Wings 3 at Canucks 2 (OT)

    Great to see the boys pull it out in OT. I was just way too tired when I got back (went out for a couple drinks after the show last night and had to get up to play a church service this AM). Looking forward to seeing the DVR of the game. From reading the thread, seems like Mrazek wore the backpack to carry the team and keep it close, Z tried all game, and the switch was flipped for the third and OT. Mrazek with the assist on the winner was too fitting. How did the D look with the injuries? I assume Ericsson was poor again, but how did Q, Smith, Kindl, and Marchenko look? Thanks in advance for any details. Side note: Jimmyemeryhunter, when you get that nacho craving, here's a recipe to try: take nacho cheese Doritos, pit some Frito Lay jalapeño cheddar dip on each one, cover with shredded pepper jack cheese. Do as many layers as you wish, then nuke for 90 seconds. It's so bad for you and may sound nasty, but it is so good. (I was way skeptical until I tried it)

    10/24 GDT : Red Wings 3 at Canucks 2 (OT)

    Third night of a four day show run, hopefully I get home in time to catch the later part of the game. It would be nice to see the boys get a W to end the slide (plus Canucks fans are almost as annoying as Leafs fans IMHO). Hopefully there are no more injuries and the guys pull it together to give our goalies some run support. Let's Go Wings!

    10/21 GDT : Red Wings at Edmonton Oilers, 9:30 EST

    I have a rehearsal for a production of Grease tonight so I will miss the first period. It's my first show up in Binghamton, but the director was apparently impressed with my playing (he changed keys on three of the songs and told me when I got there and I just nailed it on the fly). The best part is the guy is involved with a LOT of theater stuff and he got me a serious in for the professional theaters in the area so it looks like I may get some pit gigs for equity productions moving forward. Here's hoping the Wings kick that much ass tonight against the Oilers (even if it would be a double digit blowout). I have a hunch that Tatar gets on track with his scoring, Larkin steps up to make a decisive statement of his intent to compete for the Calder, and Zetterberg continues to be awesome. Let's Go Wings! (And, as usual, Killer GDT graphic as usual!!!!)

    I think this might be finally it for the Mule, Sadly

    I just hope Franzen is able to overcome the symptoms he is facing right now and is able to lead a healthy life with his family. While I think a healthy Franzen is a big asset for the Wings, if he hangs it up, I wish him the best and thank him for his efforts as a Wing. He was in beast mode in 08. I hope he LTIR's it for his long term health, but I don't have the right to tell him what to do.

    The lack of PP getting setup is going to come back and bite them, I fear.

    Dirty looking hit there, hope Pulks is OK. Score on the PP, guys.

    Well played. I was thinking more like Probie's cannonball when he was in Adirondack.

    PP. Convert this, we need a PP goal for BoS in honor of her GDT.

    Wings on their heels. Mrazek will keep them in it, but they have to get into the o-zone to do some damage.

    Come on guys, bear down and light them up. Any collateral damage dealt is acceptable and encouraged.n let's Go Wings!

    It's a bad call, the the Holtby play last year was worse, I have to agree.

    10/17 GDT: Detroit Red Wings @ Montreal Canadiens, 7:00 EST

    That's no goal against any other team.

    You know damn well it would have been called at the other end.

    Yep, favor the diving frog is in full force. Price is now fair game. Engage with extreme prejudice.

    Mrazek should have *****- slapped Gallagher with his blocker.
  23. TheXym

    10/17 GDT: Detroit Red Wings @ Montreal Canadiens, 7:00 EST

    Ran Mrazek. No goal. Gallagher needs to be Kronwalled.

    Abdelkader gets mugged, gets sent to the box. Nice to see the refs are in typical favor the diving frogs mode.
