    Thanks for the updates fellas. That makes way more sense to me.

    No. The lineup says he's out and Smith is in. Which is weird considering Smith played last night and Quincey hasn't played at all.

    It's not ok to GLOAT about how you've "had Jensen on you roster pretty much all summer long" when you never even mentioned him ONCE in the roster thread. It's even worse when you've put three different rosters out there and NONE of them have Jensen listed. Change your mind all you want. I did. I started with Tatar on the 2nd line and Zetterberg on the first. Then I flipped them. But I didn't wait until Pulkkinen had a goal yesterday and then lie about how I "had him on my top line all summer long" when I actually didn't.

    Wonder what's up with Quincey?

    Kane case headed to grand jury

    That could be the reason why the NHL let him attend training camp, rather than going the Voynov route.

    Or how he's "always" hated the Quincey trade and re-signing? See, that's what I mean. We aren't supposed to go back and see how he felt at the time. That's not fair. The important thing is that he's changed his mind enough to always be on the right side of any roster decision since then. We keep focusing on his inability to analyze something before it happens, when we should be focusing on his incredibly accurate flip-flopping technique. His analysis of roster decisions, after the fact, is pretty much spot on.

    Lol. Dude, take it easy on him. Lefty wasn't planning on anyone actually verifying the things he says. He's not prepared for that. He said Marchenko-Kindl in August, now it's Jensen and somebody else, and after tonight's game it will be Ouellet. And none of that is inconsistent. Why? Because Lefty changes his mind ever 12 hours. You can never be wrong if you change your opinion enough to cover every possible outcome. And as he's been so fond of letting us know lately, Lefty loves being "right". He's the Eklund of LGW. You throw enough s*** at a wall, some of it sticks.

    Kane case headed to grand jury

    Probably a strategic decision in response to the fact that Patrick Kane is actively giving interviews and discussing the case. Not good for the potential outcome of your case if the alleged perpetrator of the crime is on every TV in the country saying he didn't do it, and you don't respond at all.

    Did anybody else think that 3 on 3 was stupid? I mean, it was exciting sure. But so is the shootout once you're finally watching it. But 3 on 3 hockey doesn't resemble an organized sport. It resembled a game of keep away between kids on a pond.

    Team USA coach for hockey World Cup...

    Dude, that's the second time you've trashed modern WWE. It's really not that bad. Sure the "reality era" thing was stupid, but most of the bad booking has more to do with making up for past mistakes than it does with being bad currently. The only superstar who's been handled correctly in the last 5-6 years is Lesnar. They botched everybody else, so what are they supposed to do now?

    Leftwinger is ready to trade 25% of the Detroit Red Wings team after 1 preseason game. Yep, hockey season is back.

    Because we've got about 200 NHL ready defensemen. He kinda gets lost in the fray.

    If Jensen keeps playing like this he might completely change the complexion of the defensive depth chart. He looked excellent tonight. He made plays, took chance, carried the puck, and has the wheels to get back in coverage. Plus, him and Larkin looked awesome in the 3 on 3. Nobody can catch them. I'm happy with the performance all around. Would have liked to see more out of AA and Berts' line as well. But they were the fourth line tonight, so they didn't see the ice much. Didn't really expect a lot from them. Remember a couple of years ago when Babs' almost beat Quenneville with a bunch of AHL kids? Everybody used it as evidence of how great he is. Based on tonight's outcome I'd say Blashill is AS GOOD as Babs already. He won't be fully better than Babcock until he nearly beats Jon Cooper too.

    Good thing they changed overtime. Wouldn't want games to be decided by a gimmick...oh wait.

    Our guys get to every puck faster, they just aren't big enough to keep it because they're all like 12 years old.

    Well if this game is any indication, the Wings defensemen are going to be a good bit more active under Blash. Also, this team is insanely fast.
