The Wings better be paying close attention to Calgary. We could easily slipped to the 3rd seed.

Crap! He leads our team in blocked shots...

Question is who stakes better... Homer or Downey?

Highly doubt he would say anything... Come on....

Says "url not found" Tool what?

He is not a regular on the 1st line in Grand Rapids from my knowledge (though been wrong before) and a lot of people know that he is not 1st line material. We all know you would give it up to Downey, so there is bias.

If he has not played on the 1st line in Grand Rapids, what makes you think he will play on the 1st line in the NHL, especially on this Wings team? Seriously...

Your intelligent enough to know that it is 3 yrs later and he has been having issues with his elbow. More than certain he is still playing through it and will have it re-evaluated this summer.

There is more to games than stats... Sorry, but a lot of things have to do with psychology also. Why do you think players use black tape? Goalies use multi-colored pads? Teams press hard early, hit hard, or there are fights? Hell, I use shoot the puck at the goalies head on purpose to screw with em... I fully do not believe someone will understand the game as a whole unless they live and breath the game. As in playing and working with it. I have had the benefit of playing hockey (not professional of course) for a few years before a tragic car accident stopped me from playing. I also worked for the commissioner of the CCHA for 2 yrs that exposed me to various experiences. There are other members who have played the game or still do and understand it, know it, and value reading into a play or being 2-3 steps a head of another team.

Mack_Attack I really enjoy reading your threads and posts. You KNOW hockey, provide solid facts and insight. Your a dying breed.

What is ironic, what Henrik and Babs said was exactly what I said last week and about the Wild game about 4-5 weeks back. The D was terrible and they hung the goalie out to dry. Way too many turnovers. And you even got on my case about it with other members. Try debating/arguing your way out of that one.... When the coach and the players state the same thing that I have been preaching for sometime now is hard to dismiss. And as I said before, Babs left Chris in because it was not his fault. Pulling Osgood would not do anything for his confidence and by not pulling him Babs was sending a message to the rest of the team "it is not Osgood, it is the rest of you." /rant

Only goalie I want plays in Vancouver and I do not see that happening anytime soon.

I tend not to eat all day Loo and then gorge myself when I get home... It does not matter what food it is - I raid the fridge like you would not believe... {see avatar} The person below me can not wait for Spring

The team performed like a busted condom at a keg party tonight... Did not protect, everything went in, and were humiliated.

Babcock is keeping Osgood to send a message to the rest of the team.... Time to stop those give-a-ways Wings or it will be a short playoff run this year. To be honest, they play like they do not want it...

11 turnovers by the Wings.... Enough said...

Yes... I have turned down wings tickets due to school or working.... Another time due to being in a non-weight bearing cast. [and for some reason the some of the last few TPBM seem vaguely familiar] {see avatar} The person below me does not like the weather when it is cold and rainy...

Always have to consider the source. Ignorant comments and activities are prevalent lately... I guess CBS thought it would not incite anger towards them.

That is a great movie!!! 6 fingered man....

Awesome you have such a great relationship with them Lizz!

Prob her cousin right?

It will be interesting to see what transpires... If we can keep the team together, Holland is just amazing...

Your pic and the one of Os smiling do not jive... lol

Just remember, the Sharks have a few games in hand and they just added some depth to their D. Will be interesting to see how it plays out. Plus you have to be watching what Boston does...
