Weber ran Helm? Can somebody please step up and rock him....anyone....probably not. I just want to be wrong. This is one of the times where Abdelkader needs to do something.

He's a total wimp.

Don't even get me started on him and his so-called boxing lessons.

If he doesn't challenge someone tonight, he can forget his reputation as a hard nosed player.

I've already forgotten.

As much as I want Abs to succeed here, he's gotta do something that makes him valuable. So far this season he has brought nothing that the team couldn't get from 100 other players in the NHL or AHL.

[BigWillieStyle 662]

Oh no! Lemieux wants to outlaw dirty hits, didn't you read?

Yes. The fine print excluded his team from those rules, of course.

[haroldsnepsts 4,826]

As much as I'd like to see it, Abby started the night with an elbow to the face. I'm not sure he's the one to be trading punches.

But it'd be nice if someone would.

We're also controlling the special teams battle while Nashville continuously runs out of position trying to "send a message".

I'd much rather be at the top of the conference without "toughness" then out of the playoffs but play "tough hockey".

What if Lidstrom didn't get up and was seriously injured?

Your'e missing the ******* point. They're playing reckless and trying to hurt our players. Someone needs to do something about it before it happens.

[wings_fanatic 677]

I think this shows that the NHL is not taking the proper steps to prevent injuries to its key players. Nicklas Lidstrom is the best dman to play hockey, and he gets run like that, with no puck... ref right there, and NO CALL?!?! That was pathetic and we are very lucky Nick is okay. IMO there should be a suspension on that hit to set an example because that is just trying to hurt him.

[PredsFanTheBayouState 263]

Probably trying to match his wife's pubic hair.

weber is not married,yet

I don't deal in "what ifs". I deal in results, like winning the game, and standings.

And I am sure most of us would like a healthy Red Wings team then being destroyed by dirty hits all night with no response.

Those aren't mutually exclusive.

There was a time when the Wings could do both.

eaves is such a badass. OWL MAN FTW

I've already forgotten.

As much as I want Abs to succeed here, he's gotta do something that makes him valuable. So far this season he has brought nothing that the team couldn't get from 100 other players in the NHL or AHL.

He has increased his point total since last year, is +12 (2nd highest on the team), and it the most physical player on the Wings.

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

Winning is not as important as standing up for yourselves and preventing injuries when you've already clinched a playoff spot.

Trashville should be taught a lesson and not just on the scoreboard.

[Carman 387]

Sending a response won't magically stop the Predators from hitting, if anything it's going to make us play their game and not on be on the PP.

Terrible giveaway Hank, lucky...

Where the f*** is Chris Simon when you need him. One swing and the preds would change their tune.

[26point2 203]

Big offsides missed on the Wings...are the refs even watching?

[j.hoop 64]

someone needs to take webers head off

We need the Hansons!

:fro:

[haroldsnepsts 4,826]

Or sign him in the off season?

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

Anyone think Weber will stick around in Nashville after this season?

Hopefully, after tonight's Bertuzzi incident, Weber won't be playing in the NHL anytime soon.

[Guest Howard He Do It?!]

Anyone think Weber will stick around in Nashville after this season?

Not if he wants to win.

[Aussie_Wing 354]

Anyone else really liking Kindl's development?

[26point2 203]

PK...but a nice save.
