You can steal my Zetterberg. I will wear Rivers as to not jinx the wings If only I had a flames jersey to wear, they would surely lose

Devastaing for sure... I will stick with my original assesment of not being intentional. I agree with L11 above... Cheechoo exposed his knee by dragging his leg to clip Hartnell. Upon watching the replays, that is still how I feel. Hopefully Cheech isn't to banged up.

I guess I will join in the fun... I shaved on Sunday and that was the last time. I can grow a beard pretty quick so this should be interesting

Kindl had 3 assists (EVEN) in tonights 4-2 victory over the plymouth whalers.... So there will be a Game 5 back in Plymouth on Friday the 13th. I am going to try to drag offsides along to the game and I will bring my camera so that I can take pictures of him.

Also go into H.A. and ask them if there are any tickets to this years playoffs... I guarantee you the morons will look quizical at you and say, "DUH!!!! Sold out!" Dumbass morons working there!!!!! <--- Sorry still really really really angry at them for their laziness.

And he looked very unimpressive out there in his last performance. I was excited to watch him but he made several costly errors and just really didn't have a single impact on the game whatsoever. Except for the puck that hit him in the face in the face and then was tipped in by I beleive Sesito. I dunno, he may be good in the distant future... but right now the wings have no need for him on the blue line for some years. Tonight looks to be his final game in this playoffs so his stats will all hinge on tonights desperation performance.

Kindl was a non-factor out there... However he should of received an assist after James Neal shot a puck from the point and it hit Kindl square in the face... the puck deflected to an open Whaler and put into the net. I dunno, my first impression of him was definitly not ready for the NHL in the forseeable future. There were many other defensemen on the ice tonight that looked better than him (on both teams). He does have a wicked shot, I will give him that. But for now I would take Lilja over him and that is saying A LOT! with that said... WHALERS UP 3-0!!!!!!!!!!

With the amount of recent injuries and our conquering the West, it just shows that our team is based on more than just a few players. They are playing like a team. If one or two players being out takes our chances from Awesome to squat than we have no business Hoisting the cup at the end as we don't have the best "team" in the NHL, we only have a few great players. I am not concerned at all, they have been playing like a team and it takes that team playing to battle through all 16+ games. GO WINGS!

Well offsides just announced to me that she got us 2 tickets for Sunday's game for my Birthday so that is two more tickets taken off the market.

Well, I am cool with it so long as Bert will be back in the sadle again for game 2. Especially now since I just scored two nosebleed tickets. Well actually offsides got them for me for my B-day So its all good!

I get to see Kindl tonight as the Whalers hand him and his team yet another loss Game 1 @ Ply: 6-5 (Whalers 1-0) Game 2 @ Kit: 3-2 (Whalers 2-0) Game 3 @ Ply: TONIGHT!!!!

You have to follow the directions given by ticketbastard (assuming you bought them from them) You would have to take them back to the Point of purchase... If online, I have had to mail the tickets back to them (they will supply you with an address) and they will credit your card when they receive the tickets back. Overall its just one big hastle.

I Know at least 3 season ticket holders which are not corporate who turned them down

Very nicely stated. Back in my teenager days, I wouldn't think twice to dropping $63 for a ticket to a game with my friends. However since I now have a family to support, and spending $63 for one ticket (x2 for my wife and I) becomes a much harder decision. Usually one which is best answered by not going.

I never thought of that Wow, $100 for glass seats in the Finals... LOL $100 will just barely get you Row 11 upper bowl for the first and 2nd rounds.

Yeah I know... If I didn't live in detroit I would be able to attend every wings game, no questions asked. But living in this Economic Dump 24/7 365 days a year... Money is pretty tight and such luxuries have to be passed up on. I love the Joe's Atmosphere during playoffs and will miss it up by wallet won't be sad after the 2-1/2 hours are over and done with.

I never said ticket prices for regular season were the same as playoffs? if I did, it was a typo... Tickets prices are a HUGE markup over the regular ticket prices which is why many season ticket holders tell the Red Wings uppers to F-off when forced to buy all 16 games at one time for the playoffs. We spend about $4,500 for two tickets in the $54 range for the entire 41 games. For the lowly 16 games (granted not every single round will go to seven, if any) we would be paying just under $6,000 for the entire playoffs for the exact same seats. Mr. I froze the regular season ticket prices for the One game at a time crowd. However, he jacked up the Season tickets prices 20% by not giving out the Joe Bucks this season. So basically where other teams give out discounts and various other incentitves to their season ticket holders, we got a 20% increase in our ticket prices.

I have been tossing around the idea of going to thursdays and sundays game for a bit now (tickets are still available) but I just can't justify spending $63 for a seat the cost only $22 last game. The mark up is horrible and I would just rather save up my money and put it towards a full 41 games next season as opposed to 16 gamers right now. I am glad to see that another 4,499 season ticket holders banded with me to say, "Thanks, but no thanks!" to the outrageous prices. And yeah that one(1) season with joe bucks... what an fing joke! Can't wait to see how they screw over the season ticket holders next season! there really isn't much more they can do outside of another ticket price hike. The expinential rate of increase in prices as the rounds go on futher my refusal to pump money into Mr. I's pocket. My couch has the best view and prices in town!

I have many o' sergei's and Ozzies and several other wings and around the league players Yeah authentics definitely all have the "fight straps" as I call them. But as you can see then, you don't need an authentic jersey to be happy with it I have paid a pretty penny before for my jerseys (I have over $10,000 worth of jerseys now in my collection) but since I have found those two websites (actually I buy from the actual stores of theirs but for others outside of the metro detroit area the sites work just the same) I don't pay any more than I absolutely have to in regards to single colored jersesys. NHL.com has all Wings jerseys for what? like $159 plus shipping! I walked into Fanatic U, picked up a Bertuzzi Jersey before his first game for $130 out the door. Had I about another 7 days, I would have had SportsK whip one up for me for $105... But i needed it for the game that night

They are typically a heavier material and like offsides said, they have a fight tie-down strap in the back. Sometimes the lettering has a little thicker stitching on them as well. For all intents and purposes, Replicas will look the exact same at about 1/2 the cost.

See my post right above your last one... SportsK has them for $105 and Fanatic U has them for $129. YOu can order them online at the links I posted above... Dicks rips you off!

I am kinda sad about this announcment.... Sure Fraser is brutal, but at least he is brutal for both sides... He is a dick, but doesn't ususally take one side or the other.

Get your jerseys here: http://www.sportsk.com/redwingjerseys.html or http://www.fanaticu.com/customer/home.php?cat=111 do NOT pay $150+ for a wings jersey unless you are getting an authentic one! I want to post a message saying, "GO WINGS! I would be at the games, but the fools working at this establishment are lazy and they always say the games are SOLD OUT...even when they are not!" Hockeytown Authentics gets :thumbdown:

Who'd want him??? My guess is the Montreal Canadiens. Is our coveting of other teams players already starting again?

Double Post Sorry
