WTF that went in!?!??! wicked datsyuk finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CanadaBoy 151]

PASHA <3

[Namingway 146]

Woo Dats!!!

[syntax 359]

Hard to say. But I'd think he would've developed into a better player than Lebda or Meech.

It's in the past, though it's still hard to watch when he's back in town, and we watch Lebda and Meech back there. I just think it's funny that a few people put absolutely zero fault on Holland and company.

I hear ya. I'd MUCH rather have kept him rather than Lebda/Meech, but I digress...

THANK GOD (OR WHOMEVER) FOR PAVEL!!!!!!!!!!!

Ritola! Well done son!!

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

I love Bertuzzi and hate Datsyuk because he doesnt shoot like that ALL THE TIME!!

[Dave 324]

Leino with a strong shift!

I was just gonna ask...did that look great cuz I have low expectations for Leino, or was he actually strong on the puck making pretty good decisions?

[Hockeymom1960 5,107]

Wow The Joe just woke up, lol

[j.hoop 64]

wow miller just got rocked with a headshot, heres hoping hes recruiting the mercenary skills of brad may. at least ritola hit him back.

[XxGoWingsxX 0]

leino and Ritola both had great shifts there. Leino is looking a little better thus far and Ritola is out there making them pay for hitting us.

[Guest malelion55]

WOW!!!!!...triangle-head scored a goal !!!!

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

Also, Ritola>Leino, the kid is hitting, battling and getting chances. Love it.

I'd answer, but I dont' wanna jinx it.

[redwingcapt 52]

did kenny just cal their coach a "plugger"

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

You can tell it's a contract year because Malts is hitting everything that moves out there.

[hooon 1,089]

Anyone else think Leino is playing better tonight?

[RedWings Gone Wild 6]

Ritola's been looking damn good... now if our guys can stop taking damn penalties.

[haroldsnepsts 4,826]

Wow. Great scoring chance by the Avs.

someone didn't pick up their man.

holy crap that's a weak penalty call. one hand on the stick and it's a hook?
