[syntax 359]

If we have a player actually show up for this game it will be better then the last game.

[edicius 3,269]

ericsson might be returning tonight.

Confirmed by Bruce MacLeod's Twitter. Janik's been sent back down to GR.

[FinRedWing 172]

Ericsson is back,Janik sent down.

EDIT: beaten by someone who apparently doesn't have any work to do.

This is completely true. My ass is falling asleep here.

Looks like this is gonna be a game on both sides made up of the walking/skating wounded. Now I know crutches give one balance, but the first team able to mentally toss 'em aside WILL win this game.

Playing the worst team in the league, I think we have a chance for a win here.

We kill the Sharks and get manhandled by the islanders. I don't think it matters who we play haha, only when the Wings decide to show up.

[Octopus's Garden 147]

May in for Leino as well, according to MLive.

I know it made more sense to shoot Janik down to GR, but booting Meech or Lebda for Big E would've made me a happy panda.

Another lazy ass effort? we'll see....

[wingnut22 81]

Going to the game tonight. Pretty excited. they better show up and play

Why does it seem like I can only remember Ray Whitneys time in the D as lazy and suck... kinda like Robert Lang....

And its kinda weird to remember what a goal by Nick Lidstrom looks like after watching the recap of the last time these teams played....

Anyways, LETS GO WINGS! I'm calling a very physical game tonite... and the Wings will scratch out a 2-0 victory. Goals by Eaves and then Dats in the empty net.

It's Jimmah time!

4-1, Z^2, Bert, and Jimmy Howard with his first career goal when the 'Canes get distracted because Ericsson has had enough of Lebda's 'lazy ass bulls***' and decides to drop the gloves on the bench.

He wasn't great, but he wasn't bad either. It was just one of those things; he came from C-bus where he was getting more ice time and PP time and was their go-to guy, and then he came to Detroit and got buried underneath the Wings' depth.

if they show up

4-1 win

or if they dont

2-3 OTL

Wow, there's a team out there with an injury list that's longer than the Wings'? I think I've entered the Bizarro 2009-10 NHL season.

Technically there are two teams, I think. But I think the Wings' injuries count more because our injured players were pretty much all in the top tier of players.

Leino is a healthy scratch tonight for May, per mlive.

Am I the only one who thinks Lebda's looked better in the last few games?

Probably.

[wingfan1991 221]

[esteef 2,679]

May won't allow them to sleepwalk through this game. Wings win tonight!

Leino is a healthy scratch tonight for May, per mlive.

I think his time is running very, very short.

[Theophany 110]

I think his time is running very, very short.

I think he's already done, but they're just throwing him in every once in a while to see if he shows some desperation.

[Branton87 77]

I've had the flu really bad since yesterday morning. Getting some points would be better than any get well soon card. GO WINGS!

This is a must win, if you can't beat the Carolina gina after being embarrassed by the Isles then you don't have a chance against the upcoming schedule.
