[puckbags 863]

Dats +31...thats ridiculous !!

[Electrophile 3,554]

I don't care if the rivalry is dead and in the past......f*** the Crapalanche. I hope we stomp them.

[seeinred 1,488]

Let's go with 14 to 3. Someone scores a crazy amount of goals, too.

[Guest mindfly]

Another sloppy effort by the wings? Not enough rest?

[FinRedWing 172]

This one's a must win.

Avs suck.

6-3 WINGS

Another sloppy effort by the wings? Not enough rest?

Don't watch then,you can always listen to your favourite Måns Zelmerlöw songs or something.

[Ms_Hockey 0]

Osgood (if he plays) has a shut out, facing 670 shots.

The score ends up being 845 to 0, Wings.

You heard it here first.

[uk_redwing 495]

Hopefully Conks starts this game. It is not back to back game so our guys must be recharged. Time to own Avs first time this season.

Wings win this game 3-1

Same old crap from Mindfly

[Reilly 24]

Please. Start. Conklin.

[chrisdetroit 189]

Dats +31...thats ridiculous !!

2nd in the league behind Blake Wheeler who is +33. But Blake Wheeler only has 34 pts compard to Pavs 69 and only averages less than 14 minutes per game compared to Pavs 19+.

[elriqo28 2]

Please. Start. Conklin.

I get the feeling Babcock is trying to get Osgood to build some confidence...not that it's working with his past few games, but I'm sure he wants BOTH of his goalies going into the playoffs feeling like they could win.

You mean the win over Minnesota or the game against Columbus where he kept it close even though his defense had no energy or jump?

[dat's sick 1,002]

Whatever goalie we start has a you know what. Someone gets a hat-trick and Kopecky scores twice for a 5-0 W.

Babcock will give Osgood every opportunity to shoot himself in the foot from here on out. The gun is loaded, cocked and aimed at his big toe.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Whatever goalie we start has a no goals allowed game. Someone gets a hat-trick and Kopecky scores twice for a 5-0 W.

[RoninJai 5]

I am going to the game tonight. 8th row behind the goalie, Zamboni end.

What are the odds we get one waved off tonight?

[I Red Wings I 40]

I will be there!! Hope for a great game.

[Casey 145]

I'm feeling 4- (1-1).

Ozzie's getting better, it's just going slow. I'd still start Conk for the majority for now.
