I wanna see Weber have to replace a helmet.

I don't care about Mike. I miss Jiri Fischer.

Crymson might be the most rational person on this board.

I actually think we played pretty well for the last two periods. We carried the play and got a lot of scoring opportunities. They got some lucky bounces. Thats just the way it goes sometimes. I guarantee if we play like that again, we will win more times than not.

Weber should be out for the next game.
And I won't give the Preds credit tonight Strader, they got two flukey goals. That, to me, was the only difference in the game.

So will you leave and stop posting on hockey boards then?
I'm sick and tired of people complaining about the state of game of NHL hockey. In my opinion it's never been better than now.
Yeah, it seems like we got some crappy refs tonight, but that happens in all sports.
Like fighting go watching MMA or boxing or the fake wrestling.
NHL hockey is still the fastest, most physical, most passionate sport out there.
It's by far better than baseball, American football, rest-of-the-world football and basketball. Nothing else comes close.

"You don't like it, then you get the F#$% out!"

Interference on Dats not called. These refs, #5 Chris Rooney #34 Brad Meier, are sucking hard tonight.

How was that hit on Pavs not a penalty?

Is this playoff hockey or playoff basketball? Soft ass calls.

GREAT kill. Atta boy, Johnny.

Uncalled crosscheck on Homer? Unbelievable. Horrible noncall, and horrible call, interference, on Homer.
No call on Kindl.
These refs need some glasses for sure.

The Thrashers belong in Atlanta, as do the Flames really.
That the franchises didn't flourish there is because of poor ownership in both cases. Look it up.
It has nothing do with lack of fan support. Bettman chose one franchise to back over another because of toxic ownership in Atlanta.
That the NHL isn't in the ninth largest U.S. TV market really is shameful. Especially when that same market is corporate headquarters to UPS, Delta, Home Depot and Coca-Cola.
Still, it's hard deny Canadian enthusiasm for hockey and that counts for a lot.
It's hard though when a team leaves a city. I hate to see it for any fan base.

Blame that on Illinois ...
You know why Indiana is so windy?
Because Illinois blows and Ohio sucks.
Go Wings!

Well I didn't see the icing call so I can't comment on that, but when two experts, who see and call at least 82 games per year, say it could've gone either way I agree with them.
That said I wholeheartedly agree with your second statement and dat13owns statement - with 15 seconds left in your own barn and up a goal, you gotta close out the other team.

I think what I"m PO'ed about the most is that the streak was broken by the next closest team in the standings.
Really though, I wouldn't have been happy at all that the streak was broken, but that the Canucks did it, nipping on our heels just makes it that much worse.
The way they did it too - last second goal to tie it as a result of a questionable call and then in a shootout.
Eh oh well ...
Remember that time in 2002 when the Canucks were up 2-0 in the first round of the playoffs, and Lidstrom scores from near the blue line in the third game, and the Wings reeled off four straight wins .... yeah, that was awesome.
Go Wings!
