    Is San Jose more talented than us?

    they always seem to connect with their cycling passes. they rarely have issues clearing the zone. our guys seem to go out of their way to make the high-risk pass or worse yet; soft, weak pass.

    Official "We Believe" Thread

    I feel sorry for all the poor saps who bought home tix for this series. this will be a an utterly futile event. the same could have been said for the late reg season home games. very deflating.

    Mike Modano Time

    don't waste the energy folks. modano won't ever suit up for the Wings again.

    WCSF Game 3 GDT: Sharks 4 at Red Wings 3 (OT)

    congrats Sharks! I hope you guys can make it a good Conference finals... I really thought last year was your Cup to take. Hockey is over for me, except maybe for the Cup finals game or two. Wings flub this postseason in a very quirky way... not sure what excuses they will muster, aside from age and complete lack of hunger. Get to work Kenny... I know you won't though.

    WCSF Game 2 GDT: Red Wings 1 at Sharks 2

    its been real lovely, folks. im outta here. maybe the Wings might show some life... who knows? i've got far more interesting things to do today like clean out the gutters.

    WCSF Game 2 GDT: Red Wings 1 at Sharks 2

    As much as I love our Wings, yadda yadda.... i cannot see the West taking the Cup this year. All I see are creampuff SOFT defenses. save for maybe Nashville, the big brutish teams out East will eat this up whomever they meet.

    they need to split up Z and D.

    WCSF Game 2 GDT: Red Wings 1 at Sharks 2

    i am sick of how weak our Wings look on the puck. no more noodle passes/shots!

    WCSF Game 1 GDT: Red Wings 1 at Sharks 2 (OT)

    Wings forgot how to clear the zone during the 9 days off

    Dats needs to shoot more and worry less about setting up Z
  11. hard to be overly analytical when the Coyotes were being gifted PPs with game already decided.

    Ilya Bryzgalov

    $3.5mill per does not equate to a backup goalie on this team...

    Sounds like more Versus/NBC for the next few years

    why in the world would NBC re-up their aggreement??! their coverage over the years has been attrocious. its probably more of a ploy so that no other network can get it.

    Nashville vs. Anaheim

    I am pulling for Nashville *gasp* in this series! I think they can give the Canucks more trouble
  15. i agree they shouldnt let up, but the wings have been playing crap for pretty much the past few weeks. i just hope they don't get slaughtered on national tv this weekend. or worse yet, get themselves injured.
  16. i think the Hawks control their own fate. any flub by dallas or calgary then the hawks are surely in. if once their playoff berth is locked up, the hawks might very well try to tank the last games. you just know they want vancouver or san jose.

    Joe Louis Red Wing Songs

    not to hijack this thread; but can anyone post a list of the Eminem songs they play at the Joe?? there is one in particular that I know is not mainstream radio...

    Babcock healthy-scratch decisions

    i was a worried mess a few weeks ago. now that they can do no worse than a 3rd seed; rest away Babs!! play the kids/Black aces!!

    Cooke suspended

    so what I conclude from what's being said: 1. with no priors you get one free shot. 2. if you are on the ice against a player with priors its okay (perhaps even preferable) to skate with head down.

    I blamde Islanders for the goalie situation

    I blame Ozzie. was he really on track to suit-up before the trade deadline?? As for now, I would rather see Babs ride Macdonald as backup from here on out.

    Datsyuk, Franzen, Hudler & Bertuzzi likely will not play

    I was at last night's game. not too pretty watching teams key up on Lidstrom, Howard and Zetterberg. These guys are every bit as crucial as the ones sitting out. p.s. you are welcome

    Cooke suspended

    Oddly enough, I think Cooke got too much. 6-10 games would have been sufficient, maybe add a 1 game suspension to the HC for effect. The current outcome seems a little too much knee jerk reaction to Mario's griping. What if Cooke's victim got severely injured... we'd probably be looking at a lifetime ban by this scale. So if a star player (w/precedent) like Heatley throws an elbow, should he face a similar penalty? The league is painting itself into a corner with this one.

    Datsyuk, Franzen, Hudler & Bertuzzi likely will not play

    Wings are evidently mailing-in the remainder of the season. This will likely cost them second round home ice. I hope they are up for it!

    Chara's hit on Pacioretty

    well, whatever the issue, it wouldn't hurt to remove or re-engineer those dangerous stantions
  25. just like the fans, sponsors can do as they please. no one wants to see injured players splayed out on the ice... especially not the advertisers. how their requests will affect what the league actually does is another matter.
