4/1 GDT: Blue Jackets 2 at Red Wings 3

[CanadaBoy 151]

Howard with win # 34 ;D

[Guest mindfly]

Should have been 7-2 or something... just not sharp enough

Howard played good today, no weird rebounds and some solid stops... stick handling not very good though...

With how things have gone after tomorrow they say franzen has a broken ankle season over and filppula a wrist strain gone 2-4weeks

Yeah, since they were both back on the ice afterwards...

[brett 1,029]

another win on a controversial goal.

7 straight!!

gotta bury the chances though

keep it up howard and the wings!

[SuperNovaXll 124]

Good game. Wouldnt have been so close if we could have gotten a couple of those open nets!

Anyway good night all!

[8 Legged RedWing 367]

A huge scare there with Franzen but he looked fine when he came back on and I am not sure who he hit but he landed a nice check on one of the BJ's in the last minute or so.

Regardless, solid win to keep this streak goin. Jimmy looked great and kept us in the game when it was 1-1. Lets go blues help us out!

[Guest Howard He Do It?!]

April in the D is just like Nashville. I hate them both.

Serious. I do wish I was part of a band called Dirty Mitten Funk, however.. :\

[softshoes 83]

Nice win boys.

Sick goal by Dats, right where mom puts the peanut butter.

Another win for Howie, can't say enough.

[Vladifan 680]

******* blues dropped a 2 - 0 lead

I tuned in once to that game. Sound was down, and there was Jackman, beating the crap out of someone near somebody's net. Didn't have to have the sound up to know that of course the whistle had blown already. And hallelujah and whatever, he got two minutes for it. Somebody really needs to beat the crap out of him. Really.

lol. Jackman is the best defenseman in the NHL after the whistle. Too bad he is one of the worse when the puck is in play.

[Z and D for the C 712]

Flip and Farnzen left the game?

[titanium2 867]

Whew, Wings win it 2-3 over the Blue Jackets. The Todd is credited with the GWG.

Controversial goal five. (Raises hand).

[Guest Four]

Just saw Datsyuk's goal.

Wicked.

[Trapt1307 81]

Flip and Farnzen left the game?

They both played afterwords...I'm assuming they're fine.

[Z and D for the C 712]

Flip led all forwards in ice time again. Hopefully he can start getting some points again.

Said Columbus captain Steve Nash: "You can't blame the refs. You have to talk to Toronto, that's their call. I'm at a loss for words. I thought it was quite evident, but apparently not. If that call goes the other way, we're going to overtime.''

Apparently the issues go beyond just ESPN.

This makes Saturday so damned important. We better win and win big. I wish I could go to that game but I hear it's sold out.

Apparently the issues go beyond just ESPN.

Is it just me, or are the Wings a lot less bitchy about the countless goals which Homer (or, Brad May on one specific occasion) gets legitimate goals called back? I know Babs will occasionally make little jabs at the league or officiating, but the Wings' players tend to keep their mouths' shut, do they not? I've already seen quotes from Commadore, Mason, Nash, and their nobody coach all pissing and moaning. Hell, with the way that they're complaining, you'd think they actually had a shot at making the playoffs.

On top of that, I really thought that the contact with Bertuzzi's foot looked incidental. He was being bodied up, so I thought that his movement was very limited. I have, however, only seen it once or twice. What was the concensus around here? Did we get lucky?

[hokike 1]

Why Red Wings conspiratory theorists do not show up when Red Wings gets questionable calls?

Usually silly posts "I hate bettman" are common but why not "I love bettman" when Red Wings is favoured?

OK, lemme start.

I love bettman.
