10/15 GDT: Anaheim Ducks 6, Red Wings 3

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

The nice thing about this game is that the Ducks played last night too; usually, when the Wings come to So-Cal, they end up playing the second leg of the local doubleheader at a disadvantage because they've played the night before and the Ducks or Kings haven't. This time, it's all even. No excuses either way.

I will be there with The Nation once again. It's been a long time since we went 2-0 in SoCal. Hopefully we can do it tonight.

I think we'll be ok. We'll start off a little shaky from the jet and bus lag, but we'll come back strong and win this game.

The Ducks haven't seen the DZH line this year yet, and I don't know if Chrissy Pronger can handle them. and I hope Drake kicks Perry's ass tonight as well.

Look out for Homer, I have a feeling he will be taking it to the Ducks tonight, Pronger will be all over him but noone can stop Homer

Lets Go wings :clap:

When you're hot you're hot, when you're not you're not.

Wings 4 (Dats, Z, Homer, Draper)

Ducks 2 (Bert, Douchebag)

Is there a specific Douchebag here, or is it a generic "some other Duck will score" prediction?

Sad that I have to ask, but the Ducks are stacked with Douchebags. :P

Today's game will be decided by the magic letterboard. The Wings have "K".

All players with K in their surname will score a goal, all with K in their first name will have an assist:

Nick L. will assist Kronwall.

Henirk will assist Datsyuk.

Nik K. will assist Drake.

Kris will assist Rafalski.

Kirk will assist Kopecky (twice, of course).

Dominik Hasek will assist himself.

Sammy will return on "S" day.

The Ducks have the letter "Q".

Congrats to Andy McD of the Ducks on the new baby.

Where does Christos Kostas Tselios fit into this?

That Boogard dude is amazing, I think I just read he's 6'7", 268??? WTF?? Tuzzi ain't a small dude, and Boogard just flattened him immediately. Too bad the $4M man got a concussion, I'm sure it's a pretty severe one.

I think it will be a blow-out, not sure which way - - -but naturally I'm hoping it's the Wings coming out on top. San Jose ain't no joke day after tomorrow either.

If we can manage to clear the crease, Dom will be just fine. Is it just me, or is anyone else completely underwhelmed by Kronwall again. For every nifty pass he seems to make a lousy one, and his size is certainly a disadvantage re: what I mentioned above, clearing the crease. Everyone knows if Dom makes a stop, and can't find the rebound, out comes the snow-angel-of-death. :P

Getzlaf gives us fits, but somehow.. without 48-goal man Selanne, this just isn't the same team. Of course Niedermeyer is a stud too.. and their D isn't quite up to our level either. They might scrap out a win, but clearly on paper this year, advantage Red Wings. Can't stand reading the pundits--they're still saying the Ducks are the "class of the west", and they'll likely get over their troubles and take the conference.

If Selanne and Niedermeyer don't return soon, they might be too far off the pace to even make the playoffs.

*Edit: Just read that Pahlsson is back - what a good player - -that'll help them immensely.

Where does Christos Kostas Tselios fit into this?

The magic letterboard does not apply to middle names; however, given that this is Chris Chelios, that makes it a very different matter indeed.

Oh, dear, I'm going to have to refer you to sirdrake for that one. I would have to ask what's stopping Chris Chelios from fitting in wherever he wants to. (Answer: nothing.) Unfortunately, I do not know if that also applies to Christos K Tselios.

Sirdrake? We need a ruling on this one.

sirdrake doesn't seem to be around that much. He is as enigmatic as his hero/nemesis Chris Chelios.

think we'll end up losing this one guys. Giguere will pull out all the stops to see the Ducks home by 4-2, 4th eng.

Hope I'm wrong but just think the trip will catch up with us. Will settle for a 5 point haul on the 4 game trip thou.

RWNW will definitely be making an appearance tonight! Yeah I hear you D I am wondering if we can pull off back to back wins as it hasn't happened in AGES.....

Meet us at the Red Wings Bench for the Preskate (section 206) also check my signature or get there via group events :)

See you there!

Let's go RED WINGS!!!

HEX completed on both Bert and Schneids....;)

ducks may come out like crazy 2 morrow and wings might be tired like Hudler stated too close to call this one

No more tired than the Ducks. They played last night as well.

To top it off, the Wings will be playing a rested Hasek, where as the Ducks will either start Bryzgalov or Giguere for the second time in as many nights.

OK latest odds...

Anaheim $ 1.78

Detroit $1.95

Should I get me some of those? :D

Wow! Over here we have

Detroit Even

Anaheim -120

Total 5 -120

You sure get some screwy odds over there! If I am reading you right Detroit is almost gettting 2 to 1 for a straight up win? Or are they giving half money, meaning you pay $1.95 to win $1.00? Either way is off from here.

My pick: Take the over 5 (-120), looking for 4-2 or atleast 2-2 w/ shootout.

I knew the Ducks had played more games than anyone else, but 56 starts for Giguere already?

Those are his stats from last season. He just played his first game of the 07/08 season last night.

Edit: Clarity

I am so glad you used the old Greek version. :lol:

What's the odds on Z getting a point? Better yet: What's the odds on TSN or NHL.com finally writing that article about how much he rocks if he keeps this up? I say 1/1.
