    I thought the Wings played pretty good up until the third period. That was MUCH better than last year's first game. For most of the series last year, it looked like the Wings were just barely hanging on....and they still managed to push it to 7. If Wings can play this well for the rest of the series and can get some decent goaltending, they might be in good shape.

    Zetterberg is no longer the heart and soul of the team? What games have you been watching? Zetterberg has played amazing so far and he and Larkin have both been our best players.

    Giving Larkin the captaincy would be a wrong move for both Larkin and Z. Kid doesn't need that pressure. Legitimate or otherwise.

    Thank you very much for this!!

    Just got 3 tix! Super excited. Was originally going to get the $270 seats, but I opted for the $230 because they were higher up. Not sure what the view would be like down in the 100 sections when it is off on one end of the rink.

    Officially excited now!

    I was at the game. As many have already said, terrible first two periods. I thought Larkin looked a little out of place in the first, but once Blash switched lines in the third, his line was clearly the most dangerous. I think Blash needs to keep Larkin at center. It's clear he is more comfortable there.

    I thought Nyquist looked 10x better tonight than he did all preseason. Hoping him and Tatar can get a couple over the next few games to get things going.

    Also, the Defense is SORELY missing Danny D. I think having him will help iron out some of the big defensive wrinkles the Wings currently have.

    Canes deserved that game, and I felt bad looking at the scoreboard seeing 42 shots to 20, and the Wings up by 2. Anyway, a win is a win!

    I honestly think if anyone would have been better served in GR this season, it's Tatar. Not saying that he SHOULD have been in GR, I'm just saying Nyquist was wasting his time there. Tatar could at least play and get a bit bigger. That being said, I'd love to have them both with permanent spots on the team. Cleary and Sammy have gots to go. Period.

    I don't know if we will ever see a player speak out, but as a fan, I REALLY wish some of the younger guys would be given a legitimate shot. Tatar and Nyquist, in my opinion, have more than earned a spot on the Red Wings roster. Although I like Bert and Sammy, I would much rather see Tatar and Nyquist playing right now. I was actually excited about this season because I foolishly thought we'd get to see more of Tatar and Nyquist.

    Pens-Flyers is a competition of who has the worst defense and goaltending. Don't mistake high-scoring with high-quality.

    I'm not, they are just playing at a crazy pace. Made the Wings and Nashville look like they were skating in slow mo almost. I am not knocking the Wings. They played a great first half, and a decent second. I just wouldn't want to be playing either of the Pens or Flyers right now.
