DirtyD 38 Report post Posted March 30, 2010 (edited) I'm thinking that its late enough in the season to start keeping a watchful eye on our Western contenders. Obviously most of us - myself included - are going to be watching the Wings (hopefully) crush the Oil tonight, but there are a couple of other interesting games going on elsewhere. The Kings v Preds game will have direct implications on us, while a couple of potential first round opponents (Canucks and Coyotes) are also in action. And of course, there is still the very distant chance that the Hawks continue to falter, allowing us to make a move on the Central Division title; a loss against the Blues tonight would certainly help. Anyways, lots of hockey to be played tonight, ladies and gents. Enjoy. Edited March 30, 2010 by DirtyD 1 Wings_Fan_In_Exile reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DirtyD 38 Report post Posted March 30, 2010 Go Kings and Blues! Pretty much. I'm hoping for big wins from the Kings and Blues, and for Luongo to start against the 'Yotes only to get thrashed. We may have to end up playing the Canucks in the first round, and I don't think we should have too much trouble with them if Luongo has no confidence and plays the way he has been recently.

NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted March 30, 2010 Nah rather play san jose I'd love to play SJ in any round of the playoffs with how well we match up against them. At this stage though, given the current level of play of the 5-8 seeds that's not looking likely for the first round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyD 38 Report post Posted March 30, 2010 Nah rather play san jose I can see that, but I feel like the possibility of us drawing San Jose in the first round are getting slimmer and slimmer. The Avalanche are slumping and, especially if Nashville wins tonight, we'll find ourselves locked in at #6 and destined to play Vancouver. Personally, I think that would be our least favourable match up. But, to each his own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wingsdiehard13 33 Report post Posted March 30, 2010 Isn't it better if nashville wins so detroit can keep l.a behind them...no need to catch that 5th spot anyway? If the Wings win tonight, they will be ahead of L.A. anyways. Either way, the Wings have to take care of business tonight. If Nashville wins and Detroit wins they'll be 3 up with 2 games in hand. If Nashville wins and Detroit loses they'll be up 5 with 2 in hand -- not insurmountable, but not a good situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, if Detroit wins and LA wins we go to 1 point behind Nashville and LA remains 1 point behind us. Want to play Nashville on Saturday with the chance to overtake them.

BuckeyeWingsfan80 209 Report post Posted March 31, 2010 The Blues killed the PP with only one good rush for Chicago really and honestly they had a semi-breakaway on a turnover by Duncan Keith that was just as close. Chicago seems to be hanging their head when things don't go their way. Joel Quenneville strikes again. And Brent Sopel just took a puck to the face.....

deetroit dario 27 Report post Posted March 31, 2010 (edited) 2-0 kings, rinne pulled! and i'm just happy to hear that the preds are ******* vunerable, since they always seem to get a point just for being alive... meanwhile, st louis are my new sort-of heroes, just because i can hear them singing a mocking parody of the lame-ass "duh duhduh duh duh duh duh duhduhduh" chicago song, which continually makes me want to blow my frakkin brains out!! btw...kings win!!!
