I'm going to this game - so damnit, we better win!

I'm gonna say 4-3 Wings.

Versus. What a sorry excuse for a network.

Ew...

Looks like I picked the right time to go.

[Statts 4]

Versus and NBC games are the only games I get to watch on the big screen. :colorbounce:

Since I missed the last game, I am looking forward to seeing Leino and alligator... if they play!

2 things jump out at me from this GDT....

1. Brad Boyes has 20 goals but is also -22 haha

2. David Backes leads their team with 136 PIM....the leaders on our team have 36...

Maybe we need to get a little less pretty, and a little more gritty.

4-2 wings

[I Red Wings I 40]

I don't know about you guys, but, I probably hate St.Louis more than any other team. No thanks to their fans. Go Wings!

Bruins, for me.

I saw one YouTube clip where a fan punched Steve Yzerman in the face on the way back to the dressing room.. and now I have an eternal grudge against the Boston Bruins and everyone involved there.

i'm not saying i disagree with you entirely, but having a guy with tons of PIMs obviously hasn't done much for their position in the standings...

Ah Versus, what a sensational station!

Live and on HD in Australia, you little ripper!

Cmon Wings, lets get a victory here. I assume Leino will play? I really look forward to seeing him play for the first time.

To the people ripping Versus, you need to check your facts. The Versus network has had ratings higher than WERE EVER ACHIEVED on ESPN2.

Ratings doesn't mean they do a good telecast.

5-2 Wings.

[Zeta Power 40 1]

Wings snap this 5 game winless streak come out and play strong D and score some early goals.

Wings 4 Blues 1

[55fan 5,133]

Weehoo! I was at a Superbowl party yesterday hosted by a friend who is originally from MI, and she invitied me back tonight for this game since she has Versus and leftover Bacardi.

Two predictions:

1) Wings win 2-0 (Kronner, Maltby).

2) If I am as keen on that Bacardi as last night, I'll spend the 4rd rooting for Paul Kariya. Yeah, I'm that bad on Bacardi, and I don't think I'm spelling it right either.

Go Wings!!!

[Guest mindfly]

Wings should be able to win against blues.. but i think kronwall will continue to suck and goaltending will not be sharp, per usual.

I hope Leino gets to play as well, been dying to see him play and I have to miss Wednesday's game because of work.

Whoa and wow! That I did not know. Don't like 'em, but now I'm thinking I can certainly live with them. Especially when it's the only channel in town.

Thanks.

5-2 Wings.

Agreed - I HATE watching a game where I can't see the blue line, the crease & the puck!!! It would be nice to see it once and while. And it's NOT my TV, 'cus all three can't be eff'd up. And it's NOT the provider either because all the other channels let me 'watch' the game with those 'little things' like the lines and puck.

[dat's sick 1,002]

So probably no Z or Homer in this game either?

We should still be able to win, but I don't think it will be an easy one.

3-2 Wings, goals by Sammy, Rafalski and Pavel.

Does anyone know if Villain and Abdelkadabra are playing tonight?
