We need to win Game 3 so we can put this darned "gosh, we sure do suck when we go out west" bugaboo behind us. We're obviously going to be going even farther west as the playoffs continue, so they need to just keep hammerin' away. Keep the energy up, guys!

Well, what do you expect. This is what the typical Predabilly fan thinks passes for hockey!

AMEN!

I've kind of thought he looks a lot like Hank did when he first came on board a couple of years ago. Wouldn't that be spiffy!?

Hopefully, if "Running Hasek" becomes Calgary's motto, some Wings will stand up and rip out their spleens and livers with a stick as a sort of disincentive.

STOP IT!!!STOP IT!!!sTOP IT!!! MY Wings won the West...They are the most dominant franchise in recent NHL history. They have a bunch of hall-of-famers and the other talent is excellent. Their goalies are two of the best in the league. STOP WORRYING ABOUT WHAT CALGARY'S GONNA DO TO US AND START MAKING CALGARY WORRY ABOUT WHAT'S GOING TO BE INFLICTED ON THEM!!! (with all due credit to General Patton.)

After his shoot-out attempt last night, that sounds about right.

INTERPRETATION: "OOh, a small girl hit me, please intercede!! I am in SOOO much pain!!!"

I assume that's Frog-speak for, "We HATE Americans...give us your dollars and save us every time Germany decides to use us as their prison-*****." Or perhaps, "We will now so irritate the rest of Canada that they sacrifice a case of Molsen every night in the hope that we leave the confederation and then have nobody but ourselves to complain about." Alternatively, "In the U.S. it is pronounced like TOY, not WAH!!" Thus ends the Frog-speak.

FRCIKIN SNOARKIN JAB-UBSKLATINK GROD-PIG INJURIES!!!! MAKE THEM STOP!@@@@@@!!!! MAKE THEM BETTER, OH GOD, PLEASE MAKE THEM BETTER!!!!!!! amen.

What IDIOTS! Yeah, doesn't everybody hate hot, scantily-clad women strutting around in front of them at their job? Way to improve hockey players public image, retards...

Please God in heaven make the hideous Frog-Speak stop!!!

I believe Bertuzzi is one of the few players whose presence requires the opponent to change their game plan so they can react to him. Rewatch the last couple of first-round debacles we've had and it was because WE weren't playing our game, we were responding to the OPPONENT'S style of play. Amazing, given that the Wings had the President's Cup in hand, but that's what happened. We MUST resign Datsyuk and Bertuzzi. Come one, Datyuk stunk in the playoffs last year because he was coming off/still affected by an injury. I believe prior to that he wasn't ready mentally to step up to the challenge. He WILL be there this year. So, if we dump Maltby & Lang, and if Chelios takes a cut, can we swing keeping Dats and Bert? Keeping Calder would be great but not as critical IMO.

OK, time for a rant... I talked to several players a few weeks ago at "Toast of Hockeytown" about Shanahan's leaving, and they all said it was because of 'not getting along with the man in charge' or something to that effect. Datsyuk is a star on a fantastic, tradition-laden, fan-obsessed team who can go into probably any restaurant/car dealership/club/store/etc. in Michigan and get treated like a GOD. Doesn't anybody remember how much the players HATED Bowman, but Yzerman kind of told them to bite the bullet and Scotty would lead them to the Stanley Cup promised land? My point is, Babcock has been wonderfully successful. If you're a pro athlete making guagjuazillions of dollars/year and a coach isn't necessarily sensitive to your personal wants and needs, SUCK IT THE FRICK UP!!@!!!!! There are endless dip-s*** bosses out here in the real world that we as the working masses have to cover for and tolerate just to hoover up a relatively crappy check every month! So Shanahan felt his niblets weren't being properly caressed and now he plays for team wannabe. Fedorov wanted the bright lights and recog of LA. Unfortuantely, being a hockey player there means you wait in line at the restaurants behind the producers, movie stars, baseball/football/basketball players,rappers, and street-sweepers. He realized that, dumped to Columbus, and career did an imitation of Saddam Hussein's last big jump. Is Pavel really that stupid to throw away the golden ring because he doesn't LIKE Babcock? Don't get me wrong, I LIKED Dave Lewis, but I think his being a "player's coach" worked against him since he seemed to have more trouble looking past his personal relationships with the players for the overall good of the team. I don't believe Babcock has that problem, and thank God for it!

Sure our coach looks like a troll, and our color commentator seems to be drunk during every broadcast. We've got an inuit running around hitting everything that moves, a goalie who looks like a terrorist and another like a caveman. And we've got some chants in our arena that you won't find in too many pro sports venues... but that's who we are, and I don't think anyone who seriously takes the time and effort to find out what Predators hockey is about could possibly come away with so much criticism. But besides that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the Predabilly play? Suck on a catfish, oh toothless one...

He's GOT to be back for the playoffs. I don't think we can go all the way with Datsyuk being the only scorer.

I would like to see the release of a Paris Hilton type love-tape involving Pronger and TUTU.

I've gone to all of the "Toast of Hockeytowns" and spent a load of $$$ there at the auctions. A big chunk of the money goes to those guys' rehab. I would say if you are a true-blue Wings fan and want to get to see the team, eat good food, drink good wine, and (the past two years) tour the Joe, cough up the $250 admission and GO. Rehab's expensive! Plus, Vlady's been there every year except this year...not sure what the situation was this year. OH, yeah, I'm surprised somebody didn't get hired to break all of that limo driver's bones!

I guess technically they are correct...they're not Wings fans...

Geez, I tried to help them with their silly little no-talent, no fan base, no success, no good players, no playoff hope team slogan and they are less than duly appreciative. How sad for their silly little forum!

I would like to see Bertuzzi make Frootoo squeal like a pig!!!

[KOMETS!!! Are you from the Fort. I grew up there and still love going back to the Coliseum. That's a great venue for minor league hockey. Now I live in Toledo and their stadium is, to put it kindly, not quite as nice. A good thing to do before the games in Detroit is to drive around the neighborhoods and ask groups of teenagers if they can make change for a $100 bill.

In all fairness, your (Nashville) coach looks like he fathered the banjo-playing kid from "Deliverance."
