  1. C'mon, boys. Hopefully Babcock worked his "light yer ass on fire" magic and we get out there in the second and play like we did in Game 3 where we controlled the game for the most part. On an unrelated note, does anyone else hate that friggin Fathead commercial theme? I want to punch a midget in the uterus every time I hear it. Ok, not really... I want to punch them in the uvula.
  2. Thanks, FlashyG! Made it home before the start of the game, so I'm all good now! Thanks again!
  3. GDT graphic down for anyone else? I want to see the hilarity too, darn it! Let's Go Wings!!! Edit: Nevermind. Stupid corporate firewall blocks the site the GDT pic is hosted on. *sigh*
  4. Said it before and I'll say it again, Carlo C. sucks the suck out of "suck". What the hell does Babcock see in this guy. Having watched him play when the Griffins played the Aeros here in Houston, I can honestly say that the other 5 kids outplayed him. How is this guy better than Lashoff? Hell, as many gaffs as Smith is having, I'd still take two of him to get rid of Carlo. Yikes. What a waste of money. Anyway, so far, so good. Jimmy has been good/great when he needed to be. Certainly getting some breaks when we need them. Need to learn our lesson on having a 2 goal lead evaporate. Let's Go Wings!!!

    Mikael Samuelsson

    I seem to recall there was a distinct reason we used to refer to MS as the "Shinguard Assassinator", and it wasn't because he had a knack for shot accuracy. He looked pretty much like he always has out there now that he's back. Several of the kids on the Griffins looked pretty decent on the point, Friday night. I'd want them in moreso than Sammy. But I'm a hater. Jeff in Houston

    jan mursak does he have a future in the nhl?

    FWIW, he looked REALLY good against the Aeros Friday night. I didn't see any of this "doesn't pass" stuff that another poster was talking about. He was flying out there and his line scored every goal that night, IIRC. Just my $0.02. Regards, Jeff in Houston

    Lashoff sent down to GR

    My concern was that this move was done to make room for Carlo Colaiacovo. Having seen him play againt the Aeros this past Friday night, I'd have to say there was absolutely nothing remarkable about his play that would warrant having him up with the big club. I know it was a "conditioning stint", but this guy doesn't look anything like he did when I saw him with St. Louis in years past. Skinner and Paetsch both looked better than he did on the ice. On the other hand, Tatar and Mursak looked like big-club players that were playing down. Mursak was truly a force to be reckoned with and his speed was a HUGE asset and integral to the Griffins getting the win. All in all, a great first time to see the Griffins, but not a good thing as far as scounting Carlo's potential if/when he gets called up again. Regs, Jeff in Houston

    2/27 GDT : Red Wings 1 at Kings 2

    OH Christ. Why the hell do we have to listen to the d-bag San Jose s***s announcers on NBC Sports Network? Looks like another game listened to on mute or with streaming 97.1 on in the other room. GO WINGS!

    Ok, so the DirecTV guide is not showing the game on any channel right now. Anyone know offhand how this is being nationally televised? I don't see it listed on local NBC or the NHL channel. NBC sports network is showing the Pens-Flyers. Thoughts? Thanks, Jeff in Houston

    WCSF Game 6 GDT: Sharks 1 at Red Wings 3

    OMFG. Seriously, with the too many men? You mean like you just had for like 10 seconds about 5 minutes ago. Oh wait, I keep forgetting it's only the Wings that aren't allowed to do that in the SCP.

  19. I thought it was cool that they use TNT's song, "Intuition" as the music behind their video intro on coyotes.com. Props to the doggies for being classy in the interviews. I hate Doan for other teams, but wouldn't mind seeing him in the winged wheel.

    "The Red Wing"

    +1, bro. The dude behind the rebirths of Flash and Green Lantern as the mind behind this effort would have been awesome. But alas, I agree. GJ has more sense than to even entertain taking on this flaming bag of crap project.

    Nabokov claimed by NYI, refuses to report, suspended

    Honestly, that doesn't sound any more outlandish than anything else discussed so far. I'm just trying to understand what the REAL deal is behind this move because, as most of us have stated, the likelihood of Nabby clearing waivers is close to none. Kenny is no dummy and he knows this. So I think there's got to be SOMETHING going on here. Does anyone know if there is any type of compensation awarded to the Wings if another team snags Nabby off waivers? I doubt it, but perhaps that's the play Kenny is making? Jeff

    Any Houston area fans?

    Hey gang, I'm starting to get tired of just watching the game at home with no one on Center Ice and wanted to know if there are any other Houston area Wings fans that get together somewhere to watch games. I've got to believe that a city this size has at least a couple Wings fans. Thanks, Jeff
