totally suspension worthy. You can't do that with your stick like Ribeiro did and to be fair Turco was doing a lot worse then what ozzie did and no Wings players use their stick to hit Turco in the throat since the Red Wings knew what would happen to them. If the league does not suspend him, then the league is saying its ok to use your stick to intentionally hurt a player.

You keep saying the Metro Detroit area has 5-6 million but the news is stating that the metro Detroit area is leading the nation in losing population. Other hockey city buildings are filled with large numbers of ex-Michiganders (who have expendable income and the only way to get it, is to move out of the bad economy of Michigan) with Red Wings Jerseys. Looks like the interest is there. Which puts a major flaw in your argument. Don Cherry and you are very much wrong. Better luck next time and thank you for playing. Unless the Metro Detroit area can get Job growth, Population growth and Economical growth with these high price Red Wings tickets. You will see empty seats.[/font] The true argument you should be making is how to get Job growth, Population growth and Economical growth in Michigan and the Metro Detroit area.[/color] And have fun with that one since we have not seen that in over 5 years while the rest of the nation has. Since your rich with your expendable income, then you can buy the 20,000 tickets and distribute them amongst all of Red Wings Nation. Put up or SHUT UP!

True. Also Fights and Hits don't score goals. Sticking up for yourself when you get punch in the scrum (like Don Cherry says) also does not score goals. It leads your behind into the penalty box and gives the other team the opportunity to score a goal on your team.

I heard the JLA had to get porta-potties. Is that true?

I agree. But its not the fan support, it's the government. The Government lets good paying automotive jobs leave the state & country and the government doesn't replace them. The govenment also waste tax money on personal travel and luxury items for themselves. People in the world need to buy only big 3 cars so the automotive corporation's can stop losing billions of dollars. The only industry that is built around the Michigan/Detroit economy is the automotive industry. Most U.S. cities have multiple industries built around their economy which is why you are not seeing other U.S.states in a recession You simple can't set aside for high price tickets. It would mean that you would have to give up rent or your house payment. That is way people are moving out Michigan so they can get away from the bad economy and finacial issues. If tickets cost $9 or $12 like the Tigers and Pistons then I am sure people could afford tickets and use your set aside money plan. We are also the leading metro area for losing population. Thats because a lot of fans in Nashville don't know what is going on. On the Predators message board they complain about this. It sounds like your not even from the area and that means you have no clue on how hard it is to live here and that is why millions and millions are leaving the area.

Yeah I never get why people don't mention the prices of Pistons and Tigers tickets when they argue they sell out, so it should be no problem for the Red Wings. By their logic, a Ferrari (being the Red Wings = the same price as a Ford Focus( Being the Pistons and Tigers)

It would be cool too see the crowd divided with Red & White like how Arsenal F.C. did for the last game at Highbury

You must have never been to the west coast of Michigan and Fresh water > Salt water.

Just started at 12:30 A.M. EST

Awesome, the guy throws an octopus and gets free beer.

Same with living in Detroit.

Bubble wrap and Wings fans can tell avs fans, Zoltan!

Miller does not want to jinx the Wings.

WTF. Either put the Wings on channel Fox Sports Net Detroit or the Alternative feed or the

Don Cherry hating on Americans again. =\ Sweater, Jersey. Whatever

Any video of it? Nevermind got to the second page and saw where I can find it.

If you have ever seen the movie Johnny Dangerously, then you will get the saying.

I know, it would have took AL 5 seconds too do it.

VS showed the scoreboard jumbotron and was that Al swinging the Octopus live or a pre-recorded Al?
