If the Offense plays like this every night we will be going places! I wish I could watch it but I have to study for finals.....

That sucks!

GO RED WINGS!

When I first read about this I was like WHY???? But as I read more about this the more I like it.

Wouldn't the most logical move be swap Nashville with Winnipeg?

Should have done it at the end of last year after the playoff choke job.

Yay!!!!!!! Good Job Wings! Hope Eaves is okay.

Hope he is okay.

NICE JOB BERT!!!!!!!!

Nice Save by Jimmy! He has kept us in this game!

Even if Carter was traded I can't see Columbus trading him within their own division.

I wouldn't be shocked if the Wings try to trade or put Commie or Ericsson on waivers Then again no GM in their right mind would take either of them.

Zetterberg is beyond awful this year. I don't see him beating 1 on 1 anyone in recent memory. But we can only go up from here. Maybe this game lit a fire under there asses.

Here's what I'd like to see happen. Assuming nothing big changes. Why I didn't add another 3rd line guy? Answer I feel that we have too many guys under contract who can fill that role. I'd rather see that money go to pay a new Defenseman and another top 6 forward.

Agreed! If anything we may have too many under contract. If anything we need at least 1 or 2 Defenseman and 1 top 6 forward.

I missed the game but great to see Pavs get 2 Goals! IF we continue to play the way we did tonight we will catch up with Chicago in no time.

This is why we NEED to get an Enforcer at the deadline. IF anything the hit should have fired us up.

I really hope that Stew resigns with Detroit. He is a very valuable member of the defense. If we lose him and Lids this would be a very bad thing.

We are assuming that Lids is coming back. But overall I like this idea.

I think we will be okay especially if we do well on the three game West Coast Swing. So far were 1-0 in this stretch!

I don't think your being disrespectful because it is true. I really do think that this scheme has been working out very well for the Wings and if it keeps up I think we will make a run for Lord Stanley.

Maybe Bert and Hudler should sit out more often!

Glad to see the Wings finally getting it together, we have a good shot though of gaining a game on Chicago since last I looked they were down 2-0 going into the 3rd.

I am wondering if his wrist is still bothering him. But in all seriousness we need another top 6 winger or two to help him out.

Isn't Bert FINALLY sitting out tonight??? If he is THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!!
