@Bill_Roose: Here is the #RedWings team that will play the #Penguins in Pittsburgh on Monday. http://t.co/JWDBQm2Pq8 Edit to add: @AnsarKhanMLive: Babcock said second line of Franzen-Weiss-Alfredsson needs to be better. They'll play Tuesday in Chicago but he might make changes.

If someone is that upset about a depth signing, then they should probably see someone and reevaluate their priorities in life. Seriously? There are way more important things in life to get worked up about. I get the people who boycotted hockey because of the lockout, but this has fake keyboard!rage written all over it...

@DRWProspects: #Europe: Hampus Melèn had an assist in their first regular season game. http://t.co/2U9TQxQxyM #RedWings Please God, let Hampus Melen become a superstar. I mean, because, *HAMPUS*.

@AnsarKhanMLive: Wings' Daniel Cleary confirmed he will stick with No. 71 this season.

I've not hidden the fact that I think Tatar's kind of a ******. That being said, I really want him to get the chance to prove me and any other haters wrong. The quotes from the past couple days kind of softened me on him, I don't think he's as arrogant as he comes across, and I think that some of that bluster is overcompensation for what we saw yesterday to be real doubt in his mind that he can earn a spot. That was far more refreshing to hear than threats of bolting somewhere else if he doesn't make the big show. Then to turn around and focus on putting up and (hopefully) shutting up is nice to see. I think with some maturity I could grow to like this guy. Just hope he gets the shot. We'll see...

@georgemalik: FTR: avoided Tatar interview, pulled him aside, told him 1,000's are rooting 4 him/feel he got screwed/want him to succeed HERE. @georgemalik: Not a big whoop but Tatar did genuinely appreciate the comment. I thought he needed to know that YOU are on his side. Now he knows. @Trto90: Thanks to all fans for great support. You guys are great. #camp #detriot #bigpush #justdoit Edit to add: @DetroitRedWings: "I love it here...this is the team I want to make" - Tomas Tatar #ATTExtendedCoverage @DetroitRedWings: "I want to put my best foot forward and do everything I can to make the team" - Tomas Tatar #ATTExtendedCoverage

I was hoping it was for something good--too drunk to catch his flight, all-night coke binge with Peruvian strippers, secretly part of a terroristic cabal that was running an exercise in South Korea. You know, the usual. But lack of papers? BOOOORRIIINNGG. Irresponsible, but not sloppy. I am disappoint, OEL. I am disappoint. You need to earn that contract with debauchery!

This may be true, but given the fact that I heard it on good authority that Tatar blew his nose sideways while standing only on his left foot can reasonably be interpreted to mean that he likes roast beef. Any idiot can see that!BRB, going to tweet this ASAP YOLO Edit: pinky swear I'm not drunk

*twitch* *twitchtwitch* Um I'm with Dabura, 92 would be spiffy.

Reports on twitter are that he'll take 24 as that was his pre NHL number or something. 24 is certainly becoming a well-travelled number in the D... Edit: one source: @RedWingsFeed: Cleary back as No. 11; Alfredsson may switch to No. 24: TRAVERSE CITY It also... http://t.co/qb7TdWJaw8 via @wingsfrontman #NHL #RedWings

@RedWingsFeed: In the history of the world, the boombox method has now worked, twice

There already is one, and it brings the lulz. I present to you Condescending Torts: @CondescendTorts

Don't know if you meant to quote my post, because nowhere did I specify Tots. I was specifically referring to the fact that we DON'T know who is going to be on the block...

MUST. HAVE. ALLTHEPOKEMONS!!!!111111!!!

Like many here, I don't mind the term and agree that all things considered, it's a decent signing. It's just the drama of the whole fricking thing! I mean, good lord! And I think it sucks that Cleary lobbied so hard to come back knowing he'd be pushing someone else out of a job. I'll reserve my wrath for when we actually find out who those somebodies are... Edit: damn double post

There is no eye roll big enough for this entire situation. I just can't.

Watashi wa Nihongo ga wakarimasen. :/

Good God this is becoming a farce! I feel like we're being trolled HARD. STOP THE INSANITY! Just break up with him already!

Woohoo baby Wings!

Hard to believe it has been two years since the crash. Thoughts are with everyone left behind today. I hope we never have to see a hockey funeral again.

Thanks! From the tweets flying around it sounded like a pretty chippy game...

Was it someone here that said the glossy leaf emblems on the shoulder look like semen in that picture? Maybe that's why TwinkleToews looks so sad...

@ayronatthewings: IF...I repeat IF the Wings were to get a goal song - what would you want to hear every time a goal is scored at the Joe? What say you, LGWers?
