as much as i hate the canadiens, there arena plays the best music by far

Wings win 1-0 in a shootout because I have Carey Price on my fantasy team.

It's 42 regular season games or one Stanley Cup game.

Jackie B is HAWT

So long as disney.com stays, I'm a happy camper.

We saw some good things from the PP in the 2nd half of the year. Tatar, Nyquist and Sheahan should be a good 2nd PP unit, with Z-Dats-Franzen as #1. But it's still on the blueline we need improvement for our PP to become really dangerous. Need to see what Smith can do, and Sproul should get some looks during the year.

What about Disney.com Arena?

What about Disney.com Arena?

He's been saving the other hand for the playoffs.

Disney.com? Auto correct?

These make so much sense, why can't Babs just answer the fans call?

only one I could find

Well I'll give this a try but I can't pledge much at all because I just graduated college in December and paying off loans is expensive.
Justin Abdelkader is my favorite player so I'll make it all based on his performance.
$1.00 dollar for every Abby assist
$2.00 for every Abby goal ($5.00 if it's a GWG)
$0.25 for every Abby hit
$1.00 based on his +/- at the end of the playoffs at a $1 for every +1 ratio. (If he ends in the "-" then I guess the Children's hospital owes me money)

It's a 4 way tie for me between Bertuzzi, Cleary, Samuelsson, Weiss... without them we would never have seen Tatar, Nyquist, Sheahan, Jurco.
Thank you gents for sucking so bad.

Thank you for being an uninjurable iron horse this year. You are one of only two Red Wings to play in all 82 games.
Despite all that ice time you still managed to come up only 5th in defensive scoring and 18th in overall team scoring.
You averaged slightly more than 1 boneheaded penalty minute per game (88 minutes in 82 games) - which, coincidentally, is the team high for penalty minutes this year.
Your four goals speak volumes about your inability to find the twine and yet - you never stop trying. Little the Little Kyle That Could - you rank 10th on the team in shots with 106. Your 3.8% shooting percentage actually makes us miss Dan Cleary's 6.3%. Your single GWG must have stirred something down deep that encouraged you like little angel on your shoulder. Every time you touched the puck that little guy could be heard shouting, "SHOOT KYLE, SHOOT! You're good enough, you're smart enough and doggone it, people like you (more than MIKAEL SAMUELSSON)!"
You points production was damn near equal home and away - 6 home and 7 away, but your +/- shows that you really get nervous at the Joe - +6 on the road and -11 at home. You did this all while saying, "Damn the critics! My -5 is a meaningless stat anyway!"
Having said all that, you did spend an average of 30 more seconds on ice in all of the winning games than the losing games - 21:02 vs. 20:35 - so that makes it clear - MOAR QUINCEY = MOAR WINS!

I appreciate the improvement that Q made over this last stretch. He didn't suck as much, and I found myself saying GODDAMMIT QUINCEY much less.
And good luck on his journey to another team next season. Wish you all the best Q! Sayonara!

I want to see;
Nyqvist Datsyuk Abdelkader
Alfredsson Legwand Franzen
Jurco Sheahan Tatar
Miller Glendenjng Helm

Now for the second favorite part of the season - Money on the Board.
For those who know how it works, pledge up!
For those that don't know how it works, each participant decides what they would like to pledge for the Wings run in the playoffs. It could be 50 cents per goal, it could be 5 bucks per game won, it could be a penny for each hit; our members get very creative! I just pledge a dollar amount per series win. I'm boring. You are responsible for keeping track of how much your donation is. A lot of people keep track in their signatures. It's a lot of fun.
Once there is no possible way to add money to the pot, everyone PayPals their donation to me and I send it on to Children's Hospital. I then receive a very nice thank-you note, which I post here.
You can do a board search for previous Money on the Board threads to see how it all works and maybe get some pledging ideas.
Here's hoping we have TONS o' cash to send off to the kiddies this year.
GO WINGS!!

I'm really not trying to be a pessimist, but I'm still not a believer in our defense...even with Ericsson back in the lineup. They're a sieve, and Jimmy isn't standing tall behind them like he did a year ago.

Good thing Helm is back...
