datsyuk_13_fan

haha, that's awesome

According to TSN East 1. Kovalchuk 2. Ovechkin 3. St. Louis West 1. Gaborik 2. Datsyuk 3. Getzlaf Will Pavel win? I hope he does something insane..

I could see Getzlaf doing something ridiculous. He pulled off a nice move last year in the shootout.

What playoff slump? Did you watch the playoffs last year? As for his production, he is over a PPG right now. I do agree he should shoot more since he has an excellent wrist shot, but he will continue to get over a PPG and finish with around 90 points. Gomez - Big juicy contract - 3 points in 10 games

For this year? I'd be pretty surprised if Kopitar and Stastny got 100+ points..I think both will get around 85-95. In the future I can see them putting up 100ish points.

The top line is going to have a big night. Fantasy question - When will yahoo update datsyuks and zetterbergs position eligibility? Man..yahoo stinks.

Just got home..sounds like a good game. Was hanks 2nd goal unassisted?

Doesn't matter! They are both gonna be here for a long time and if one is more valuable than the other, it's not by much! But if I'm gonna build a team around one? Probably Zetterberg, he is younger.

I think they should, it's just too much fun watching them together. They completely dominate when they are together.

Colorado is pretty much focused on the rockies right now since they are in the playoffs, probably why they didnt sell out.

I was thinking they should too at first, to bring more balance to the lines...but it's something that shouldn't be seperated. Just like Lecav/ St. Louis, Heatley/Spezza/alfredsson etc.

Is there any site that has preseason highlights of the wings games that have been played? NHL.com has none up and TSN.CA seems to only put up Canadian teams highlights.

yea, the majority of tickets went to fans in buffalo. People are just mad they didn't limit the amount of tickets you can buy, apparently ticketmaster said the most one person bought was 32 tickets, and then they started to limit it to 4 per person.

The media contacted the Leafs/Jays and they said they had no involvement and that the jays/leafs sth did not get tickets. I'm a little confused since apparently there was a password for them to get tickets that got leaked, and I know people who bought tickets using the "Sundin" password that were not season ticket holders. anyway, I was lucky enough that my friends mom got tickets for me and my friend through her work. There are tickets on ebay, but the prices are insane...and the crazy thing is that almost all of them have bids on them, really hot ticket right now. Some people that were lucky enough to get through on the site and buy many tickets are making TONS of money. There are many people in Buffalo that are furious that the ticket process was not handled better, Many people logged in at the ticketmaster site right at 10am, but the traffic was so bad that the site was basically broken...and you also only get 2 minutes to purchase a ticket, which is very little time.

Looks amazing right now. Great decisions by detroit management. I'd rather have Datsyuk over all the ufa's that have been signed.

"He probably wonders why the coach doesn't play him more," Babcock said. "The coach wonders why, too." Maybe this means he will be getting some more ice time?

I think the upcoming games in Calgary will be much closer, the atmosphere in that building is always so great.

yea, Phaneuf gave him an elbow to the face...did it really sneaky so the refs didn't even notice. Anyone else starting to hate Phaneuf? He has sucked this series though so I hope he continues to.

ok, but if even if he does go down on the ice..what stops someone from walking around him? I'd like to see him learn to block shots better, but someone can still walk around him.

Cherry is a moron, he tries so hard to act controversial it's just silly now. No one actually watches him for his hockey knowledge, it's just funny to put him on and see him talk about how great Jordan Staal is all day and bash on European players. Even worse, Brett Hull is trying to be the Don Cherry for America. Earlier he made a comment about how the Rangers have a lot of european players so Avery was a good pickup because he will add heart to a mostly european team... If you want to watch someone that actually knows what they are talking about, watch Kelly Rhudey..he actually knows what he is talking about.

I'm wondering where I can find audio clips of babcock's post game press conferences and also player interviews after games. Living in Buffalo, I don't get the local detroit radio and tv coverage so I always miss these things. I checked around on the main Red Wings site but couldn't find anything.

At least in the overtimes they weren't calling silly penalties..but then again that got some fans very angry, calling everything and then calling nothing

Magooo or not, anyone else see the other games? All the refs were horrible..playoff hockey and they were calling the smallest things.

Hull also said there was no chance the Rangers would make the playoffs...is he ever right about anything?
