    When was your first Wings game at the Joe?

    March of 2007. Best friend and I did the Nashville "home and home". Wings won both games - epic. Got intoxicated and rode the people mover train thing to Greektown. Eat dinner. Drank more. Went outside to find that people mover closes @ midnight. Homeless guy volunteers to flag us a cab. We accept. It takes him a few minutes. I tip him a couple bucks for the favor. We enter the cab, tell him we're at the Holiday Inn Select. We drive 3 freaking blocks. Had we not be so intoxicated we might have noticed that part.. All in all - good times.

    Hey, OJ killed a couple folks and that doesn't change the fact that he was a great RB. So Cheli missed skipped the handshakes, doesn't change the fact that he was a great leader all year.

    Dump Hasek, Play Howard

    BRING BACK MCDONALD!! I just wanted to say something as ludicrous as "Dump Hasek".

    After your team is eliminated...who do you root for?

    Big fan of Heatley so, Go Sens Go. Other than that, big HATER of Pronger, so, Suck Ducks Suck.

    How much would you say this is worth?

    Signed, used, faded and yellowed... I'm guessing it would be worth more sentimentally than monetarily.

    Quincey?

    Right, that's what I was saying. Just piecing it all together for everyone. Hurt? Dunno, but he went down the tunnel, came back and rode the pine for the rest of the game.

    Quincey?

    I swear I'm not imagining this, but Quincey did go down the tunnel early on in the game. He never made it back to the ice after that.

    Babcock's Fault

    I'm sorry y'all, this one's my fault. I clearly drank with my right hand instead of my left hand. I promise to resume sitting on the other end of the couch for game 5.

    question about SCF scheduling..

    If the WCF series ends earlier than 7 games. When would the potential game 1 of the SCF happen? Would they still wait until 2 days after the scheduled WCF G7? Also, barring some miracle on ice by Buffalo in the East, the West will be given home ice first no matter who wins (DET/ANA) due to having a better finish than OTT, correct? 113/110 vs. 105. May 26th is the date I think would be SCF G1. Is this correct?

    question about SCF scheduling..

    WCF G7 would be scheduled for 5/24. So, wouldn't that make it 5/26 as the earliest?

    SI: Ducks can't handle Wings' change-up

    Article Opinion piece from Sports Illustrated. The comments at the bottom are very funny. They read like a LGW thread. No Duck representation whatsoever. Perhaps they've realized you can't defend intention to injure other players.

    The Game 3 / Anaheim Experience

    Lucky! </Napoleon Dynamite> Seriously, sonds like a great day.
  15. S W A G G E R. The Wings have a swagger in their step. It was most obvious late in the 3rd when Hasek went out to play the puck near the circle. You don't do that unless you've got a ton of confidence in yourself. Hopefully it's back to stay, not just a result of a HUGE lead in one game.

    Redwings flashback: 2002

    In some little Irish bar in Hot Springs Arkansas of all places. Wife and I went camping for the weekend and I told her in advance that if went to 7, we were going to find a place to watch the game - no ifs, ands or buts. We walk into this joint and ask if we can watch the game on ESPN. The girl points to an empty side room of the bar and says, "Go ahead you can watch it in there." Had the whole room and big screen to ourselves. Everytime we cheered and hollered the 10 people in the bar would look over like we were insane.

    Camera at the Joe

    Glad I'm not the only one yelling SIT THE F@#K DOWN! at my tv. Idiots. I really wanna smack the few that do it ON EVERY RUSH. We get it, you're on the phone with Suzy and she thinks you're cool for being on tv. The rest of us think you're a ******.
