Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 That +/- comparison is hilarious. Also, Cheli is actually 64 points away from the millennium mark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HenrikRules40 14 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 TV: Versus (HD), TSN (HD), RDS â–º The Wings are 24-1-1 when leading after 40 minutes of play, and better not blow it when they lead after 40 today. My two favorite lines... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrhockey2k 2 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 Homer's 46 PIM are good enough to lead the team and none of those minutes are from fights! I miss the days of shanny lapointe mccarty kocur etc, no more fight nights at the joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Crymson Report post Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) That +/- comparison is hilarious. LOL!!!!!!!!! That is OUTRAGEOUS! How ironic would it be were one of the Wings to check Forsberg into another injury? In the long run, that'd probably be better for everyone.. Edit: I'm glad to have you back on a regular basis, Aflac-- I missed your GDTs whilst you were absent. Edited February 12, 2007 by Crymson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwedeLundin77 460 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 I wonder how much, if at all, they'll mention the possibility of Forsberg going to Detroit since this game is being aired on Versus. Hmm, I hope it comes true (as long as Forsberg's foot is truly feeling better). People say he went to Sweden and got a boot that fit better so he's feeling better, but I actually remember hearing that he got an orothotic which is an insert that is molded to his foot and placed in the boot... so which way was it? I was confused when they said that because I would have assumed that would be their first course of action (the orothotic) since I had foot problems in my skate boot and the first thing the doctor did was get me fitted for them and I felt better almost immediately when using them. Forsberg in red and white sounds quite right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crymson Report post Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) "Steve... sorry, but we'd like you to pack your equipment and go to the other lockerroom.

Check the NHL Preview: http://www2.nhl.com/nhl/app?service=page&a...007>ype=2 The line about the Wings` losing streak since January of 1997 is incorrect. The Wings won two games at Philly in the '97 playoffs, en route to their sweep of that series. Also, one might think that whoever writes these should proofread them before he or she posts them on the net. Eh. Edited February 12, 2007 by Crymson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
interminded 1 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) It's easy to take this game too lightly.... dangerous even. Red Wings be carefull, it would be embarassing to lose this one. So full speed on this one !! 3-1 BTW, Howard will get the nod tonight (according to Detnews.com) Jimmy Howard , who was called up from Grand Rapids to back up Joey MacDonald on Sunday, will get the start tonight against the Flyers.

FinRedWing 172 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 BTW, Howard will get the nod tonight (according to Detnews.com) Pressure Hatcher when he has the puck and good things will happen. Foppa's line is quite hot,we must avoid taking too many penalties. Niittymaki is great on his day,our Swedes should wear their olympic gold medals tonight - it would haunt him. GO WINGS, get a W !

arnoldbuck 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 Another one on TV out west!!! So far I think this has been the best season for me as far as how many games I've got to see. We had a stretch of games where we were slow until the 3rd, the yesterday a dominating first 40 before going to sleep for a few minutes, so ... lets see if we can do all 60 today. Another Win, we tie for league lead in points, and there is no end near for the dominance of our top line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So full speed on this one !! 3-1 BTW, Howard will get the nod tonight (according to Detnews.com) Agreed. While I'm pretty confident the Wings are at least saying not to take this game or this team lightly, despite the mismatch it might look like on paper. Hopefully they won't be gassed out from playing last night. If not, I don't forsee too many problems, but this could be a land mine game like in college football where you have a heavily favored team either lose or barely beat an decent but overmatched opponent more often than not. This is not going to be a walk in the park. 4-2 Wingers....what the hell I'm gonna go with a Datsyuk hat trick and Lidstrom with his 200th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Covenant 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 Let's hope tonight's game is a little more balanced. More like the first 50 minutes, NOT the last 10. I've never seen the Flames set up so many nice plays in a row, seriously, those 3 goals were beautiful. LOL Anyhow, Flyers will take plenty of penalties, which will allow us to tune-in our PowerPlay.. We've not been great on the road, so this is a good test before going to Dallas.. which is always a *****. I agree with above poster, it's GREAT to have back to back Wings nights! Will have some withdrawals after Wednesday though, another 2 day respite! Wings: 5 Flyers: 4 Good battle of goalies... not! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Icer 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 14-33-8. What a pathetic record. I remember when the Flyers added all those players after the lockout and everyone had them penciled in as their favorite to win the Cup. I guess that didn't turn out so good.
