BINGO

'scuse me while I whip this out...

I agree. I totally did it on my PS2 and got Pronger for him and a pick.

Odds of Wings sweep - 1 in 5 Odds of Cal sweep- 1 in 20

Can we get this article up here?

I deserve it, I should have been more specific.

I have stopped shaving. I have yet to decide between grizzly style or goatee.

I think this is their biggest advantage that the Wings can't shut down with ease.

Yeah, the Wings don't want to win. Let's get all go out and buy 8 feet of rope and pick out a nice patch of trees and Hank will call out when to jump.

That Howe stat is ridiculous. Only one 100 pt season and he has 1850 NHL points. Crazy.

I typically do, but they haven't worked lately, so a few are going. Notice the new avatar, last year I though changing an avatar after a long and glorious season would be bad luck. Others that are staying: - play-off beard - Wings apparel on every game day - changing seating positions depending on score (if they score while I'm on the couch, I stay on the couch, if they lose lead, I move) Anyone else as goofy as I am?

I have a proposal for the NHL that would really use technology for a good use, unlike the glowpuck. It would eliminate the video review for knowing if the puck crossed the line. What do you people think? - The goal line would have 2 lines of electonic sensors on either side of it running between the posts (in the goal and on the other side of the line) to determine if the puck crossed the line entirely. As I type these things, it is hard to imagine, so I will attempt to show (throught text) the general idea. |X| |X| |X| | Represents the sensors along the goal line, X represents the red paint of the goal line - the puck would have 2 bands of a metallic material that the sensors would pick up (running along the top and bottom edges/corners of the puck). Now before I get flamed, I would think that the puck weight, density, and material would remain unchanged if possible. Perhaps a copper filament would be used. I say on the top and bottom because if a puck were to roll in on its edge, laterally (as opposed to tire-style) then both sensors would have to be completely over the line for the goal to count, which typically is the hardest way to determine the puck's location compared to the goal line. - Now, when 100% of both of the metallic bands crossed both sensors under the goal line, there would be a transmission to the goal light and the horn would sound. If a goalie had control and the glove went in and the camera lost sight of the puck, the light would still come on. But that would be something that coaches, players, and fans could not argue.

As long as we're in agreement

Yep, wrap a layer of something between the inflatable part of the ball and the skin and it it all goes over the line... TOUCHDOWN!

I honestly didn't think about the goal off the moorings, but that could be fixed to, if the goal comes up off of the ice, it trips a magnetic sensor and the puck going in doesn't activate the light. Ok, the auto siren is a bad idea, so the man in the box could stil have a job ringing the horn.

That would take care of the cost of installation of the sensors.

I know, I couldn't resist pointing it out. Sorry Jwo.

Here's a thread I started when I heard that Bert went to the Panthers. I asked if the Wings had made an offer when he is probably just what the doctor ordered? Some responses may surprise you. Some have great insight, some should order up some crow. http://www.letsgowings.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=36675 By the way, Jwo is by far the best image.

They've done it before. Do you remember the GlowPuck? It's not a big deal to change things like this. I'm not asking that rinks be widened by 10 feet, I'm asking for a reliable way to tell if the F'ing puck is in the net.

The shoot-out loss to STL and I'm sure the same for them with their 2 calls with McGoo the Fool. I would rather have a few more bucks spent on something than have a bad call cost a team a play-off spot or the Cup.

Only if they win game 5 in Detroit, otherwise it's even. If the Wings are up 3-2 and head into Calgary for game 6, I like the Wings chances.

I'm sure a few people have, but I really sat down one day and did sketches and also found out that if it is a disc in the centerm then only the disc would have to be in, not the entire puck. So I came up with the bands around the edges of the puck and it solved the problem.

Coach is probably going to be released.

Yeah, like track records mean anything. Given Bowman's track record, he should have 20 rings. It all falls on the player's shoulders. And Dom has some of the strongest in the league, as does Lidstrom. Kipper has some too, but most of that team is raw and inexperienced, 2 season's ago, they were a much better team. Not so much now, their D is not that great (see goals against) and Detroit is the best at keeping teams shots to a minimum. Also, if this is a tightly called series, the Wings are a much better even strength team. Not 2003-04 people. Two different teams. And Detroit is better now, Calgary worse.

Hate McGeough, Hate Devorski, Hate Fraser Don't know Hasenfrantz. No problem with McCreary.
