Play good defense.

Have an iron PK.

Score lots of goals.

Don't let many goals in.

Thanks.

I love the Wings and I love them even more at home but Atlanta has a talented offense. We are going to have to see a big increase in defense tonight.

[uk_redwing 495]

Losing to the Thrashers would make me a sad panda...May will make sure it doesnt happen with his fists.

[RedWingedKitten 9]

Lets go Red Wings! I'm feeling a big game from this fellow here...

[VM1138 1,921]

I'll be going to this game, so they better show up!

[skyphoenix 153]

I want to get the calendar. I hope it's up on Ebay or something.

[Drake_Marcus 890]

Lets go Red Wings! I'm feeling a big game from this fellow here...

Well he's due for a big game!

[brett 1,029]

lids has been missing on the score sheet for a long time...one of these games hes going to break out.

need to have solid defense

howards gonna have to have a solid game with kovy

was hoping for a change in lines

just win get dirty crash the net forecheck solid pK!

go wings!

[blankrap 9]

I won't bet on them this time... Seems when I bet on them they lose.

[Theophany 110]

Kinda sad, but I'm more confident about games when Howard is in the net than I am when Ozzie is in the net.

[Duck Guy 86]

Kinda sad, but I'm more confident about games when Howard is in the net than I am when Ozzie is in the net.

I think howard has been better then ozzie

[rage 24]

Guess I'm kinda getting sick on Bertuzzi w/ Datsyuk.

Hopefully he can do something to get me excited again.

LGW.

[Rivalred 630]

Blocked shots are killing this team.... Hoping they can get this season turned around.

[Zion 93]

Howard with the Gordie Howe Hat Trick.

[Shaman 713]

I miss, in no order:

Hudler

Franzen

Kronwall

and that one guy...you know, Dolphin...

[Echolalia 2,961]

Drive the net. That's all I ask.

[syntax 359]

Here's hoping for another W.

And for Bertuzzi to actually skate.

[13dangledangle 968]

Is there no one else to try on line 1 for f@$k sakes. Bert has had Moore (to soon) than enough time to show something there. Why not try Leino with Dats and put someone else, not Bert, with Z and clears...Miller looked good with Z the other night, or Abby might be interesting as well but I don't know what else could/can we do here?

Leino•Datsyuk•Homer

Miller•Zetterberg•Clears

Eaves•Helm•Drapes

Bert•Abby•May

[dat's sick 1,002]

Won't be able to watch this one (atleast not live) but I'm hoping for a big game from Datsyuk.

[russianswede919293 95]

http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/20..._out_tonig.html

Eaves is the scratch today. I knew he would be after lsat game, he didn't look very good last game.

Bertuzzi-Datsyuk-Holmstrom

Leino-Zetterberg-Cleary

Draper-Helm-Miller

Maltby-Abdelkader-May

that is tonights line-up

[FinRedWing 172]

Big games by: Dats & Lids. Hopefully Bert scores one too.

Strong PK.

Score more than,say 3 goals tonight?

Win.

[uk_redwing 495]

Brad May with the Gordie.

Eaves•Helm•Drapes

Bert•Abby•May

It says alot about our season that were discussing playing a waiver pickup on the second line with Z.

Though I think that has the potential to work out....
