[VanDer 58]

I just played this game in GM mode on NHL 11 and I(Wings of course) won 4-1 with 3 goals in the last 10 seconds

[Heroes of Hockeytown 694]

The next five games, with these guys and then Atlanta, Calgary, and C-bus x2, are going to give the Wings an opportunity to rack up a lot of points before they have to play anybody good.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

[BamaWing 37]

LGW! goal and assist for Cleary

[titanium2 867]

Keep rolling, Wings. Gotta build on the positives from the STL game.

^ Those are the teams that usually give Red Wings the most problems. Lets hope they don't take them for granted.

[eva unit zero 271]

Eurotwins v2.0; Hudler and Filppula dominate this one.

[Guest Shoreline]

Go Wings!

[Guest Stolberg]

backstrom has been really good this year

[T.Low 1,011]

This aint a GDT; it's a blueadams line thread! Where the hell did those lines come from?

Zetterberg-Datsyuk-Franzen

Cleary-Modano-Bertuzzi

Hudler-Filppula-Abdelkader

Miller-Helm-Holmstrom

Eaves scratched

ZDF could really go off! Hopefuly Hudler will get an easy one on the back of Filp and Abby's hard work.

[Zion 93]

You know you're on a roll when you can roll these lines and sit a healthy Patrick Eaves. I'd say sit Helm or Abdelkader just to get him in for a game, but they've been VERY solid (Fritters, especially). NICE problem to have on this team. Anyone worried about the defensive depth down the road?

[55fan 5,133]

GRRRR! I was all excited for this game because the Wild are on FSNorth, which I actually get, and the game was on a day when I'm home to watch it. But, NO, they are televising freaking DULUTH college hockey instead. What really sucks is that when they do that, the Centre Ice blackout is still in effect, so my mom and sister who pay money to watch the games won't get it on tv either. That is just wrong. If the Fux Sports people don't televise it, the blackout should be lifted.

Wings 9- Everyone in the top 3 lines with one apiece

Wild 1- Cullen (Local boy, gotta pull for him a bit.)

[Din758 371]

ill be the drunk obnoxious guy in 211B pointing to my rafalski jersey when he scores tonight.

I may be at this one

I'm going to be there with Kronner55 and we're meeting up with Kira and her husband before the game at Hockeytown.

Hoping we see the Wings from the 3rd period Wednesday. This should be a good game.

Sorry Karen They need to get their priorities straight, hockey comes above all other sport on Fox during the season.

That blows. I didn't know that Center Ice had a blackout policy. They advertise the fact that you can see any game in any market, just doesn't seem right. Hopefully there will be a stream for you.

These are the lines Babcock was rolling when the Wings broke out in the third period of Wednesday's game against the Blues. The same lines that practiced yesterday. They are indeed the projected lines for tonight's game.

[Guest mindfly]

I expect a much better performance this game than the last, i also expect the powerplay to click...The wild are hard to say where their game is it, ups and downs i guess

[tdinc 45]

Go Wings!!!

SIDE NOTE: someone fix those giant images... lol

Indeed, according to MLive.

[truebladearmy 33]

Backstrom has been good. I think Wings will blow them out unless he decides to have a 36 out of 37 save game like he did against Carolina.

Shutout San Jose, 36 out of 36.

He went 37 of 38 against Tampa.

27 out of 28 against Anaheim.

He's been pretty hot lately.

Coming off two wins where he allowed only 1 goal in each game.

Jose Theodore is starting this game for the wild. saving backstrom for sat's tilt against NYR

Theodore to start

Jose Theodore starts for #mnwild tomorrow vs. #redwings. Niklas Backstrom Saturday vs. #nyrangers

Nice. Ignore my previous post then

I think they just don't want Backstrom to get scored on 7 or so times

Edited November 19, 2010 by truebladearmy

[dat's sick 1,002]

I think our top line with EuroTwins and Mule will light Theodore up tonight.
