[Bring Back The Bruise Bros]

Oshie returns for St. Louis. Let's hope we can play .500 hockey until Datsyuk and company get healthy.

[brett]

Just win kthx

[Detroit # 1 Fan]

Hopefully Howard can have a strong game and the Wings make it out of St Louis with some points.

[wingfanatic4alltime]

JHO is back I feel a 4-1 Wings Victory GO WINGS!!

[Cloune]

today it's gonna be a very hard match for us despite out potential, i'm not sure who should be scoring on our side. i'd switch almost invisible and boring franzen for someone else... same goes for filppula. ve need some hard working players who leave their soul at the field, not some lazy ass bastards we need some dramatic changes in the team or the future will be bad for us...

[Din758]

any reports on datsyuk and cleary coming back? the 3-4 weeks they expected is coming up soon. i was really hoping theyd be back for saturdays game so i can watch them destroy turco and the other hawks hacks.

[syntax]

Hopefully we can get a point, and not see Jimmy's GAA swell to over 3.00

[WizardOfOz30]

I hope that Howard hasn't rushed his return, I know it was just a bruised knee but I want him 100% because we don't need something worse coming out of it.

Hopefully we'll give a little more effort tonight because it's getting very frustrating watching them give up the lead every game and then having to fight back. Let's start the game with US scoring the first goal and take that momentum through the entire game.

Go Wings!

[13dangledangle]

So happy Howards back, but like was said did they rush it? hope not. The boys frustrated me last game Z looked good I thought, but he has been getting a little edge back in his game and is really starting to charge into the one on one battles instead of doing a curl waiting for help. I want to see Z continue, Mule keep scoring as well as Huds and Sauce. Hopefully I can catch the last ten of the third.....at least theyll be playing there best hockey of the game then

[puckloo39]

I think Howard is back too soon, probably, but what choice does he have, really? The team looked so slow and uninspired in front of Joey Mac. Maybe they will have some better energy tonight to welcome Jimmy back.

When everyone is back, it will all be good again. For right now, stay alive, give it all you've got under the circumstances, and try to win. I think they're in survival mode right now. How frustrating it must be to be a Wing and want to play the way they know how - but cannot because some of the pieces of the puzzle are missing.

Go, my Wings, you can do this. It's only the Blues, after all.

PS - I hate Jackman. Kronner - please Hav-splat™ him for me, OK?

You mean that cheapshot-hit'em-after-the-whistle-piece-of-s***-that-actually-beat-out-Zetts-for-the-Calder? (At least I think it was him.) He has always been one of my least favorite hockey players ANYwhere. I have never believed he has any redeeming social value. You ever heard him talk? He sounds like he has a continuous cramp in his throat. Kind of like Peter Sellers' Dr. Strangelove. I kid you not.

Oh yeah. GO, WINGS!!! You can do this!

[Steve Sample]

I just want to see a complete team defensive effort in this one. I have been seeing to many players not finishing their checks lately. No more playing from behind all game.

Wings 3 blues 1 and Jimmy dosen't have to stand on his head.

[IceMunkee]

We need a strong confident showing from Jimmy. I would like to see a full 90 minutes.

[GSBrooks13]

It might be sad but I dont even care if The Wings lose.. just for gods sake dont give up the first 2 goals... that s*** is starting to get depressing..
