Shake it off baby! Let's Go Wings! Go JMac!

Now everyone knows how important Rafalski is to this team... I believe if Rafi played tonight, we would not have gone 1-9, but that's just me

[MGreenberg]

Hopefully the Wings can bounce back tonight against this hot Sharks team.

We're going to get monkey stomped. That is all.

HA Good Luck with that one... after this finish I think they will come out like gangbusters

I'm hoping for a point atleast...a win would be great, but the Sharks just seem to be playing to well lately and with JMac in net I am not very confident in this one

I agree bigtime... but I am still confident even though JMac is in net, we are due to beat them, just like the *ucks were due to beat us

[GSBrooks13]

Well.. The Wings lost to the team they have been beating all season.. So now in a crazy reversal they will beat the team that has been beating them all season!

Also. Those 2 SO's look pretty nice on JMac's stats Haha.

[F2B&G]

I ate my words last night, so tonight the Wings get curb-stomped and lose 6-1 due to a Pavelski hat trick.

[e_prime]

C'mon boys! We need a REGULATION WIN!

[HankthaTank]

Maaannnn, horrible way to lose last night with Howie playing out of his mind. Perfect bounce back type game and I fully expect the Wings to turn it around and finally beat these crumbpacking Sharks. 4-3 (Hank x 2, Mule, Cleary)

Hopefully a continuation by Joey Mac from last game.

[HankthaTank]

[St. Michael (the Red Wing)]

Sharks have owned us lately. After last night's god awful power play I don't know. I hope Babs lights a fire under some asses. Wanna see the boys play a great game regardless of the score. Inching closer to playoff time....

[Aussie_Wing]

I want to vomit looking at that 3rd line of Filppula-Modano-Holmstrom.

Poor Flip.

[matt198913]

4-2 Im feeling... Ericsson Kindl Helm and Franzen
