Vancouver will be able to pick between Trotz and McClellan. Todd might go to Nashville.

I think it's pretty safe to say NY's bandwagon is pretty much groaning under the weight of all the Wings fans that jumped on it last night.

It would be like Christmas in April!

We've dedicated our gift in the past - the first was to honor Darren McCarty's father and the second was to Mike and Marian Ilitch. How about Gordie and Collen Howe this time? Or we could do Lids since he just retired. Also, when you send your payment, try to remember to send it as a gift so Paypal doesn't take any fees. Thanks!

"Class" is way overused. I think what people really mean is respect - you can respect the guy you're trying to make a permanent part of the boards by making a clean, hard hit and not trying to take his head off, or not attempting to render him unable to reproduce. Mr. Hockey was the toughest SOB of his time, but he had respect for the game and those that played it. I think that's the big thing that's lacking now. The retirement of players like Sakic and Yzerman has leeched that element from the game.

I hear ya. The only team that hasn't disappointed me is the Habs, and they're not going much further. f***.

Remember, the amount is not important! The fact that you participated is awesome and every single cent is a big help.

Well, Hockeytown sure didn't waste any time in coming up with this one. Couldn't give us a few hours to adjust, could you? Still on the Habs bandwagon regardless.

You guys are awesome, but it's depressing none the less. Yeah, I know, I know, we weren't going to take the series, but I really thought it would be a better series. Next year my pledge will be different so I owe something, but I'll throw a little something into the hat anyway just out of gratitude for 23 straight years. PayPal to wingsdiva@gmail.com.

The Ducks didn't fire Babcock - he declined their offer to renew his contract to come here.

And CBC isn't showing this one, so I'm stuck with Edzo. Great. Just great.

I feel dirty rooting for St. Louis, but it's the lesser of two horrible evils. They pissed me off losing that 2-goal lead and taking it to overtime, but at least they eventually pulled it off. I don't see any suspensions in the offing - they're notoriously stingy with discipline in the playoffs.

They're looking to beat the Wings into submission.

Something to do with goals would probably be easiest; total goals scored by the Wings, goal differential, goal scored by certain players.

NHL Rhino has lost their login, so they have asked me to post their pledge on their behalf. $1 for each goal from the following three players: Franzen Datsyuk Tatar

As there are no links to any credible sources, this is being moved to the Rumor section.

EDIT! EDIT! EDIT! No one will know.

If you're following Canadian law, then aren't you also required to root for the Canadian team? I don't think even the Stevie Y defense will help you in a Quebec court.

The amount doesn't matter - every little bit helps and you'd be surprised how quickly all our donations together add up. You'd also be surprised at how much more fun it makes the games. Thanks so much to those of you who donate and those who support us, the Wings and Children's Hospital in spirit.

This is a rare case when I'll root against O6. For some reason I just can't seem to work myself up to even think about the Rags let alone care about them. Since Pronger is no longer an issue, I am free to root for the Flyers, but not enough to give them a "GO."

Even if it wasn't real, the fact that I used it makes it real. #Lumbus

If there's a "Should I drink hemlock or arsenic?" matchup, this is it. Don't like either team, can't stand the fans of either team. Kinda hoping for a black hole at the arena for this one.

Sorry, as a former SJS season ticket holder, I am SO over their fans and the Sharks in general. GO KINGS

I have a huge soft spot for Montreal. I have no loyalty to Stevie within the game of hockey now that he's in our division. Count another one on the Montreal bandwagon. GO HABS
