just win now!

[agdomain 0]

Is this a national Versus game or will VS show Pittsburgh/Montreal?

[germanwing 154]

time to start a winning streak!

3-2 Wings

[ilmickeyli 40]

Sigh.. Just win, boys. Just win.

[Wings_Dynasty 267]

No predictions. Just win a ******* home game like you're supposed to do.

[Hossa4Life 4]

Is this a national Versus game or will VS show Pittsburgh/Montreal?

I heard earlier in the week that it was the pit-mon game and they would show what is left of the wings game once the pit game is over. Sucks for you guys who are out of state.

[sharkfan20 32]

Is this a national Versus game or will VS show Pittsburgh/Montreal?

What do you think? Versus is in love with Crosby, they'll show every Pittsburgh game on Versus. Like they have ALL PLAYOFFS LONG.

At least, we will have our locals guys in today. You can always try to get the games online.

For us to win, Nabokov has to steal a game at the Joe and obviously dive.

Just kidding wing fans, just trying to create some humor.

[Electrophile 3,554]

Win or.......win. There really isn't another option here.

If you live in s***cago like me, and you purchased the NHL Centre Ice package, you'll be able to watch it there. Let's go Wings !!!

[Guest mindfly]

Too little Too late wings :/

[ilmickeyli 40]

Too little Too late wings :/

I am a pessimist and will admit things look bleak - but come on dude if they win this game they are only down by 1. Just take it one game at a time.

If you truly are that negative, why are you posting? I'd assume you wont watch the game either, no?

[Guest mindfly]

I will watch it since it's not westcoast timezone...however my hopes have never been lower, nothing speaks for the wings thus far, poor goaltending, brutal special teams, abysmal faceoff stats, too many lazy penalties etc.

[Electrophile 3,554]

Chicago is my hometown -- don't be talking s***.

[Ram 240]

WINGS in 6 baby! LET'S GO WINGS

I hate this guy. Why do you post, why do you watch, and why are you a wings fan?

[MotorCityMadness 388]

Let's get back in this series tonight...GO RED WINGS!!!

p.s. someone lay out Divoguchi ( I'm looking at you Mr. Kronwall)

[Guest mindfly]

I hate this guy. Why do you post, why do you watch, and why are you a wings fan?

I hate you too.

*hugz*

[soultrain 43]

wish i could watch in real time with you all today. i actually really enjoy posting profanities every time the refs call a penalty or every time the sharks score.

[acidroach420 25]

who are the refs for tonight?

[puffy 97]

Too little Too late wings :/

It's too late? Wow you give up way too easily! Have some faith!

[Grypho 195]

I hate you too.

*hugz*

Come on, mindfly, I have to school you about being a more courteous Sharks fan. You can't just go onto an opposing team's boards and openly assume defeat for other fans' team. It takes the fun out of the game for everyone!

[Octopus's Garden 147]

No Eaves tonight, per MLive.

Jason Williams hat trick comin' right up. (A Jason Williams hat trick being two turnovers on the power play and a penalty)
