Itchin' to go

I've been to many playoff games, but due to scheduling conflicts, I won't be able to get to the parking garage until right before game time. It's for game 6 next monday. (Yes there will be game 6) Any suggestions or problems I might run into, getting there so late? Thank you

I agree that 91 and 13 were the most amazing, talented, and dominating players I've ever seen in Winged wheel. That said I dont think of them the same way I do 19 or 5. If Dats stays 5 more years I may rethink that.

Depends on the goal. If your linemates did all the work and you were in the right place at the right time. Then no solo celabration. If you just deked a top pair defensemen and roofed it topshelf. Rock on!

I didn't read all the numbers, but it sounds like they just took the numbers from late winter-early spring which they admit are the NHL's best time and compared them to full season numbers. Of course this season avg. Numbers are going to be better.

Wow? First its Holland, then its Babs, and now Illitch. Who's next to blame for this travesty. It's called the current NHL. There's a couple teams that are pretty dominant this year and maybe next. You think they're not gonna have some cap trouble in the next couple yrs? All the middle teams are fairly equal. Exactly what the NHL wants. Teams are gonna have to build contenders from their own prospects a lot more than relying on rentals, unless your your current team is just a player away from being a contender, which the Wings are not. Another reason Holland is holding picks and prospects so close. Not that I think the op is right in anyway, but the Illitch family wants a World Series title more than anything for Mr I. And no one deserves it more than him.

A reliable source just told me they seen Bettman at the Joe painting "THANK YOU FANS" on the boards

Pane of glass will be back in for game 2. Told to stay in place and not cross the line for the remainder of playoffs.

Driving to game 4 of the Wings-Sharks series last year, I told my wife "well at least we get to see the last Wings game of the year" They might have lost that series, but this team proved to me then that its loaded with heart and character thats not always easy to see. I'm not overconfident as a Wing fan, but you'd be nuts to be overconfident as a Preds fan. Wings in 7

Looking much much better since his return. Kindl makes us appreciate him more though. Ryan

Getting healthy and getting on a roll is way more important than who they play in the first. If they lose like you suggest and continue the struggles, than we all know how the playoffs are going to unfold anyway. Ryan

The Pens for sure. Their fans already act like they're some kind of dynasty.

Amen, brother!

I hope Kindl is 85ft wide or he'll have a tough time covering for the big pylon.

Dead on accurate though. Ryan

So a team that was good enough to go 7 games with Tampa, let the 2nd best player in the league sit to prove a point? Pure genius.

So not throwing your franchise player into the NHL playoffs, when he hadn't played in 4months and was having recurring concussion symptoms, is milking it? Ok. Pretty obvious things are not going as planned with Crosby's recovery. It would seem the Pens are trying to keep it quiet, not publicize it. Ryan

That's sad news. I dislike Crosby (Hate the Pens) as much as the next guy, but he is undeniably one of the most gifted players in the game. I always really thought he would mature as he got older and become an Yzerman,Sakic, Lidstrom type of personality. People often forget just how young he is, 24 or 25. I'm sure we were all such gentleman at that age. Ryan

1) Who is your favorite Detroit Red Wing player overall to wear the Red Wings Logo? Yzerman 2) Who was your favorite Detroit Red Wing player that joined the red wings? (Non drafted by Wings, could be threw Trade / FA / Waiver etc...) Hasek 3) Which current player would you dream of them joining the Wings? Stamkos 4) Which are the players that really "hurt / bugged" you when they left the Red Wings to join another team? Fedorov 5) Is there a player that you never wanted him on the team ... but eventually joined the team? J. Williams 2.0

Sorry, If money was no issues, the best to me would be 119 or 120 or if I wanted to see the bench 109 or 110. Wings shoot twice from that end. That may not be best to you but its best to me, You can never go wrong with center ice though. Ryan

Being on a family budget and the fact I generally only go to playoff games because I live so far away....I like 218B or219. Not the best because its upper, but by the of snowmobiling season and my sons expensive hockey season, I can't afford $200 a tic plus $80 in gas. Ryan

As of right now, when healthy, Dats is best complete hockey player in the world. Thats regardless of what country. Ryan

Bingo!

He's tired of being being a disappointment in the playoffs. He won't have to worry about that in Minny. Ryan

I've had a bit of that bad feeling he might retire the last week or so too. Although I have no real reason to feel that way. 1 more year Nick, 1 more cup. Ryan

Uhhh, that was a joke.
