Holland said Helm and Marchenko both have bit of oblique strain. Nothing serious. Out a week or so.
Thank god... Could have been much worse

No. Peeing at the trough is part of the experience. I personally hate them, but I wish they would install them at the new arena. Think of what a mindf*** it must be for the opposing fans. They must think we're animals.

Back when I used to dress like a woman those bathrooms would have been awesome!

A suggestion, make sure you pee before the game, the bathroom lines at the Joe are huge!

Boy, that escalated quickly... I mean, that really got out of hand fast.

As a fan of the Red Wings since the mid-80's i've always wished to see a game in person. I live in Maryland so coordinating a quick trip in, has typically been a challenge to pull off. But that day is finally coming. Me and one of my best buds are going to the April 2nd game against the Bruins. (unfortunately he's a Bruins fan, but a hell of a guy, so i let it slide). Anyway we are flying in that morning. I'm not familiar with the city at all, game day routines, post game hangouts, etc. We are gonna stay in the city, close enough to the people mover to get us to the Joe so we won't need a car. Can anyone suggest places to go before the game, things to do after the game, must do things, etc.
Sorry so long winded and vague about what i'm looking for, i just want to make sure my first visit to the Joe is a memorable one.
thanks!
By the way, i did splurge and we are sitting on the glass around the blue line.

Lets go Wings!
I'm sitting on my couch wearing Gustavssons blocker from last season in honor of his start tonight!

Only one piece of advise...
Keep your head on a swivel. That's what you gotta do when you find yourself in a vicious cockfight!

Congrats!! Bring extra batteries to take pictures of the cathedral that is Joe Louis Arena. After the game I think you should make the same choice we've all made at some point, American or Lafayette Coney Island. The Post Bar is cool and some players go there after games. I saw Chris Pronger, and assorted St. Louis Blues there long ago and got to try on Jason Williams 2002 cup ring. Maltby and Draper used to hang there long ago.
Oh, and if you go to Windsor Ontario you'll want to know the answers to certain questions.
What is your business in Canada? The correct answer is not "To fund the revolution."
Do you have any weapons? The correct answer is not "Sure, what do you need?"

Cool! Hope you have a great trip!
