Everytime we "bust out" with a huge offensive showing, we follow that up with crap performances and CERTAIN players disappear! (see #93)

Playoff style hockey Wings, this Blues team has been playing with a sense of urgency which needs to be shown as well to get the win. No predictions, win. I'll be having a poker party so I will have to win as well tonight while watching this. Let's do it!

I'll be satisfied if Bertuzzi and Franzen find something other than first gear waaay earlier in the game. I'll be grateful if Datsyuk and Zetterberg both start passing with more focus. I'll be thrilled if the Wings somehow find a way to zamboni Jackman.

Well.. at least the Wings can't use the tired excuse.. considering they only played for all of about 5 minutes last night. I feel like all season I have been hoping to see a full 60 minute game.. maybe tonight?

We definitely need to play a full 60 minutes because if they keep thinking they can win a game by tieing it up with 5 seconds left in regulation and then go on to win in OT we're in trouble. More focus on getting the lead early and maintaining pressure throughout the whole game.

I won't be here tonight, going to a friend's house to watch the game with her.

Let's Go Wings!!

No worries on Jackman, Vladifan. He and Alex Steen out 4-6 weeks as of a few days ago.

St. Louis is down some serious firepower.. we should be able to handle this too.

He obviously is still able to read the schedule, eh? What a chickens***. <_<

So were the Oilers. They should be able to handle this as long as they don't wait to handle it in the last 4 minutes of the game and into OT. Go Wings!

Yeah, why? :shocking: I don't see a whole lot of logic in playing Jimmeh back-to-back. Not a good thing for future games if he gets a fatigue-related injury.
