Awful trio Babs tossed together, time to have Andersson center Cleary and Bert next game on the top line.

okay, 4 goal lead, 5 minutes left.. Odds of winning?

I don't think he would drop his NTC and come play here if he didn't intend on sticking around for more than one third of a season. He was born in Detroit also, likely grew up a fan. I like his chances of being here next season.

Closing in on crunch time here.. keep it together guys.

You sit on a throne of lies, don't take my one correct prediction in 7+ seasons from me.

So Legwand is now 1 point shy of what Eaves did for us all season. It took two games.

Who wants to check the front page of this GDT and see my post that says "Legwand with a big 3 point night"? I love it, welcome to Detroit Legwand.

Game on... Hold. The. Lead. No excuses. Win this game.

What the hell is the animal on the Preds jersey? A sabertooth tiger? We can make that a starting point.

I haven't given up on Weiss either, I stated just that a few hours ago in that Weiss thread posted earlier. I think he can contribute if he gets and stays healthy. The guy played 20 some games with a hernia, I'd be off my game a little on a brand new team also.

You take a guy that puts up 55-60 points a season in Nashville with next to no solid offense around him, and put him in a scenario with an explosive prospect like Nyquist, and Franzen (when he feels like playing) good things start to happen. I can see him putting up great numbers here.

Okay let's crank down the hormone levels, we still have another period to play. Anything can happen. That little offensive explosion was pretty damn exciting though.

Who let the offense out of the cage? This is entertaining to say the least..

2 more points and Legwand has matched Eaves' season total.. just saying. Make that 4 points for Nyquist, 9 points from the N-L-F line. I like what i'm seeing.

Nyquist and Franzen clicking big time right now.. 3 points each and an A from Legwand

Mule our savior.. great time for him to catch fire.

Emerald nut man displeased, Emerald nut man punishes you with a screen full of advertising. Enough messing around, let's win this game guys...

This is obviously Howard's fault.

I agree, don't judge a player and write him off after 26 games and struggling with a hernia. 4 points in 26 games is not Stephen Weiss. I promise. Trying to move him right now would make no sense whatsoever, we get a 5th pick for him and suddenly he's healthy and puts up a 60 point season elsewhere, we gave up and asset for next to nothing. I'm not prepared to write off Weiss already, that's being reasonably unfair considering what he is capable of. Anyone who watched him play a lot before this season knows he is a capable scoring forward and can provide offense for this team over whoever we would start in his place like Andersson or Glendening. Weiss is an above average, skilled player and the Wings management didn't toss that kind of money at him because he's worthless. Give him a chance.

Tonight's mascot... "The Emerald Nuts Mascot Of Shame" Don't blow the lead and make him angry...

Updated.. I predict a big 3 point night out of Legwand tonight. Wings win 5-2 GO WINGS GO!

Cinnamon Toast Crunch, only because Nintendo or Ninja Turtle cereal doesn't exist anymore. The person below me hates the color orange.

I did at one point, it's amusing in it's fortune cookie-like randomness but it wore off quick. The person below me is one of the rare few NOT annoyed with the Legwand trade.

The only 42 page thread I see is the one railing the guy and discussion about how bad the trade was. I support a positive thread with an official welcome to Legwand without all the anger and venting. Thanks for posting Shoe.

Nice tribute GDT MIkey. I'd assume if Legwand plays he'll be centering the top line, eager to see what he brings to the table. More importantly, it's Lidstrom night. I'd like to see this GDT remain about the game and the legend that is Nick Lidstrom, and not an extension of the Legwand trade thread with ongoing bashing and complaining about him all game. Nick is receiving the utmost respect by never having his number worn again in a Wings sweater, and it's well deserved. May #5 hang among the other legends and it be a great and victorious night. Wings win 5-1. GO WINGS GO!!
