10/24 GDT: Red Wings 1 at Avalanche 3

[RedFlag85 33]

I think the Wings will be searching for a big win to save face from last weekend's debacle against the Av's

That Being said:

4-1 Wings

(Cleary, Hank x2, Williams, Kronwall)

(Hejduk)

I really, really hate when people talk about how a club has done on this day or that day in the past, especially when it's over a large amount of time; it has no correlation to how the club will play today. You're basically grasping at straws.

Talking about streaks this season is fine, or if a player has been particularly successful in the past playing against a certain team (because some teams players just play better against), but it's such and arbitrary number to throw up "record on this date".

That said, I think Howard will play better in this game, and the Wings will rally after two depressing losses.

You must not pay attention much.. Cus does this pretty much in every GDT (nothing wrong with it)

Lets not kid ourselves, we're gonna be 3-3-3 after tonight...Ozzie couldn't hold on to a 2 goal lead in our house, Ol' Jimmy ain't gonna do any better.

Prove me wrong (please).

[drumnj 459]

I'll be streaming both the Wings and Griffins game today, so hopefully both win

Griffings did pretty good last night

See sig for links.

Perhaps you forgot that HOWARD is starting.... so, If you could, please guess when Osgood relieves Howard? thanks..

Wings Lose because our D isnt up to snuff and playing like dung!!! and Howard is in net!

and our forwards (Zett.. Cleary...Bertuzzi.....Helm....) havent started scoring like we know they can!

ahh yes, because Osgood has really been piling up those wins. Why are you so willing to throw Howard under the bus yet Ozzy seems exempt.

couldn't this have gone in the game day thread?

Because ever since sweden, despite that HUGE softie in OT against pheonix, Ozzie has played well IMO

As far as J Ho goes, I think he will have something to prove tonight and have a great game finally showing us what he can do.

Yes it could have, and should have but, some people just don't think before posting.

Until we solidify our goaltending situation, we're gonna continue to lose. Osgood/Howard can't seem to get the job done with consistency. So until we make a trade or sign a good goalie, we'll be lucky to make the playoffs.

I benched marty brodeur so howard could start on my fantasy team today, wasnt an easy decision but i think the wings offensive are gonna come out flying and give him a win despite how he plays.

[digitaljohn88 4]

remember, we're 3-1-2 in real games.

[Wing-in-avs-town 123]

Going to the game tonight, these games are always a blast. Tucker is out, as he spent most the night in the hospital. He'll be out a while. Kids here in Colo are playing pretty damn well, and Anderson has been a huge surprise for the Avs. These games are almost always tight, wouldn't expect anything different. Who's sitting with May in the line up?

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

10-0 Detroit. Colorado lose it, and start hammering our guys, the alpha dog awakens within Bertuzzi and May as they procede to beatdown to beat down every player on Colorado.

Lets go wings!

Going to the game, 3rd row center ice behind the Wings bench! Excited!!

GO WINGS!

Ozzie- 3 Stanley Cups

Howard - 1 win as a NHL goalie! in 7 starts?

Also has had to compete for a job the last 3 years and failed to impress even the front office.

stats speak for themselves. If Howard was in net he doesnt make the saves that Ozzie HAS had to make ( and Has made them) Now grant you the D hasn't played well in front of either goalie.. But Osgood has given them the best chance to win.

And I am not throwing Howard under the bus.... He laid down in front of it with his play.

Wings will crush them.

That is all.

[Electrophile 3,554]

We better win.

[gcom007 1,465]

I think this will be a good game, though I'm not sure we'll win. I won't be bothered if it turns out that way. Hell, I would love to start hating Colorado again...

[Rivalred 630]

We better win.

See I was thinking they were going to a 3-3-3 record, what do you think?

[Draper_Rocks#33 4]

any streams?

[TheWestWing 71]

WTF? Center Ice schedule is config'd by oursourced Punjabis? CI only has the COL feed listed. Stations are full tho LA game on 639 doesnt start till 7 which could be moved to a lower station after one of the 4:00 games.

I'm getting so tired of CI BS. Where is the N3 fix damnit????

[DMAC 25 18]

howard knows his job is on the line. not saying that will make a difference but maybe he'll come out trying to prove he can make it in the NHL.

[HanKarin40 7]

JUST WIN PLEASE!

And oh yeah, Let's Go Wings!

[Xitium 272]

People predicting a Wings shutout knowing the Wings goalie isn't equipped to be out of Grand Rapids crack me up.

[Eizzo03 0]

I need a Detroit win tonight. Jimmy, give me a reason to believe!
