[Echolalia 2,961]

Same type of play as last night, different results. Oh and Howard? Show Ozzie how its done.

[Drake_Marcus 890]

Come on Wings! Win this one for me!

[Drake_Marcus 890]

Hmmm... Halak is in goal, eh? Wish it were Price. Halak's had a much better record over the last two seasons...

Price played tonight vs Washington, so here's hoping that I got it right with the starting netminders. You remember the last time what happened when you said it was Toskala, not Monster starting for the Leafs 2 weeks ago

[Yak19 303]

Halak in net = L for us

We make backups look gawdlike

Clemmensen had a .840 save%

against us = .975

Montreal is pathetic this season also, if we lose to them after losing to the Panthers then iunno

GO WINGS!

[skyphoenix 153]

Well, Montreal is downright awful right now (Price made 53 saves against Nashville a week or so ago and they still lost [and yes I know he isn't playing]) so we will lose this one 1-0 in Overtime.

[Ray1905 18]

I will be at the Bell center tonight, I'm going alone, I could only get one good ticket, let's hope the Wings are going to win or the Habs fans are going to make the game very long for me.

Let's Go Red Wings!!!

[KrazyGangsta 79]

I'm there tonight too with my wife .

It was really hard to convince her to go to a hockey game over twilight.

[55fan 5,133]

Looks like the injury train made a stop in Montreal too.

Wings play 60 minutes and they win. Otherwise, not.

Wings 4: Homer, Dats, Maltby, Helm

Montreal 1: Someone who's not injured.

[Rivalred 630]

Wings really need to start playing like they want it... The last 2 games they took a vacation.

[CanadaBoy 151]

I thought that the Leafs game will be on CBC... How does that work?

According to NHL.com the game will also be on CBC, maybe different parts of Canada get either game.

Wings really need to start playing like they want it... The last 2 games they took a vacation.

Huh? They had 40 shots on goal last night. They did everything right but the puck didn't go in. The problem is that they have too many guys playing that aren't natural goal scorers.

Look at the 3rd line - Helm, Eaves and Draper. None of them are goal scorers.

The 4th line is Maltby, Abby and May/Miller - None of them are scorers.

This means they have only 2 lines with goal scorers and Leino and Bert are playing with the big boys because of injuries.

We are sorely missing Franzen and Filpula.

But to say they "took a vacation"? You must not have watched the game

[zetterthancrosby 11]

RDS.ca is sorta saying Carey Price is in tonight

Yeupp to All of the Above.

[T-Ruff 47]

A writer with the Montreal Gazette is saying it's Price in tonight

I thought that the Leafs game will be on CBC... How does that work?

CBC's website is saying Toronto/Washington is coast to coast in Canada except for in Montreal (Wings/Habs) and Ottawa (Sens/Sabres). So CBC Windsor will sadly be carrying the Toronto Make Me Laughs game.

[puckloo39 5,686]

Score one more than the Habs. Go, Jimmy!!

Have the Habs really never played in Detroit? Hard to believe an original six team wouldn't have played a road game against the Wings.

Edited November 21, 2009 by SDavis35

[dat's sick 1,002]

Wings take it 3-0.

Datsyuk, Datsyuk, Datsyuk.

[zetterthancrosby 11]

I'll be at the game tonight, just to make sure the refs don't blow it, I'll be wearing my ref shirt, Red Wings scarf and Champions hat backwards, so the Habs-fans behind me can see it for the entire game.

I think it's gonna be an out-of-the-blue train wreck for the Habs

Wings take it, 7-2

Huh? How has Detroit played another Original-6 team only 10 times?

[Hiei 192]

Wings will win, Price is confirmed in net tonight.

all i have to say is:

THINK WITH YOUR DIPSTICK JIMMY!!!!!!!!!
