In the 3rd period the crowd seemed to be singing a chant in unison, I couldn't quite make it out. Aside from "BULLs***" , "Let's go Redwings!" or "SOUTH DETROOOIT!" I don't ever really recall any other chants. Was pretty cool, can someone fill me in?

They were singing Living On A Prayer for a bit after the music dropped out.

Bon Jovi, Livin' on a Prayer.

Traditionally played after the Wings win the 2nd game of a series, or win the 2nd series of the playoffs.

"Woooaaaahhhh Half-way there....."

ahh yes how could I forget about this song, heh. Didn't seem so distinct to my ears, maybe I just need a hearing aid but are you sure there wasn't any other singing in unison going on? Anyways, thanks for the fast replys, you f***ers are quick!

There were quite a few "Jimmy, Jimmy" chants tonight too. More and more as the game went on.

Thanks for the video post! I wondered how loud we were on TV because I sure as hell know we were loud in the Joe. My favorite was the "Jimmy/Howie" chant followed closely by the "BULLs***" chant.

That'd be it alright! Thanks, haha. I'm surprised I couldn't distinguish it during the game, musta been my nerves.

the bullsh*t chants were loud. I wonder if they have mics by the camera men and press box.

They were really loud! There were a couple of little kids sitting in front of me and they kept telling their dad that everyone was saying bad words. ha ha. Poor kids.

Awesome crowd tonight. Ranks up there with game 7 against the Ducks last year.

[I Red Wings I]

This was my second playoff game, went to game 1 against Columbus last year and tonight's game blew it out of the water. It was LOUD!

For the most part, the crowd sounded dead for the first two periods. There must be something with the crowd mics at JLA compared to other arenas...I've been to games and barely been able to hear myself think and then see the replay of the game and it sounds dead on TV. Other arenas sound so much louder than the Joe on TV, it's kinda weird.

I've always thought the same thing. I don't know it it's the network or the arena because if you watch a Detroit game on NBC or Versus, it definitely seems to be louder.

Everyone sitting in 201 and 202 was singing along to Bon Jovi, and most of the chants started from those two sections. It was amazing sitting there. Everyone in the arena went nuts when the Wings were killing the 5-3/5-4 penalties near the end.

I was watching the TSN feed and Pierre was like, "I guess they really like Bon Jovi?"

Hahha.

The mics are very low for the FSN broadcast. I watched the game on TSN and the Joe was absolutely rocking.

I think it would be pretty awesome if a singing crowd became a regular thing in the NHL.

I wouldn't be opposed to picking out a "team song" and singing it every time our boys need a boost.

well at least people weren't puking on them, on purpose.

I know its a little old, but I miss Rock & Roll Part 2 at the Joe after every goal...

I can relate to his bewilderment. Those of us who are old enough to remember that song the first time around remember how awfully cheesy it was (and still is).
