Hope Franzen rediscovers his scoring touch in this game and I really want to see if JMac can continue his strong play.

I think the Wings win 3-1 with goals from Franzen, Cleary and Zetterberg.

So pumped for this one. Even with some key guys out I really think we can beat them. They are desperate for a spot though, so the Wings better not take them lightly.

Three games left against the Hawks, the Wings seriously could make or break weather they get a playoff spot or not.

I hoping for another good game like Saturday, minus any new injuries. Do we know who's backing up MacDonald?

This game is gonna be on Versus here. I HATE Versus. And you can bet it'll be Eddie O. and Pierre LaPoop doing the play-by-play, even though it's in Detroit. Makes me want to upchuck. And you can't even ***** to them because you can't email them. Such a class organization. <_<

"He even ate with women who at that time were accorded the same status as the family donkey. Are we willing to break bread with, say, child sex slaves, transgender teens and undocumented workers? Because when Jesus comes back to Earth, that's where he'll be hanging."
You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.

Money on the Board - 100 bucks on the base. From here on, one buck per puck IN goal, win or lose!

Total right now: $110.

I would love nothing more than to see the Hawks miss the playoffs, even though I'd feel bad for Hossa. Hopefully the wings trounce them tonight.

Just cause you look like the gimp don't mean you play like the gimp!

The Wings can win. The question is whether or not they will.

Go WINgs!!!

My money on the board pledge:

$1 for each goal scored by a player after whom I have named a hamster.

An additional $5 for each hat trick scored by a player after whom I have named a hamster.

An additional $10 if any of the above goals is the GWG goal that gives us the series win.

An additional $50 if it is the GWG that wins us the Cup.

$5 for a SO by Jimmy.

Hamsters' names (current players in RED): Henrik Pavel Tomas Nicklas Dominik

Niklas Matthieu Daniel Robert

Johan Andreas Valtteri Jonathan

Andrew Patrick Ian Todd

And introducing: Jordin Damien Gustav James

TOTAL SO FAR: $36

With three games head to head with the Hawks, they have a very slim shot at catching the WIngs for the Central lead. I've got a feeling the boys come out tonight and give them a huge "I don't think so" and win decisively. I'll say JMac plays well and the Wings find some offense, with goals from Mule, Zetterberg, Lidstrom on the PP, Hudler, and Helm. Looking forward to this one.

It's pronounced "Zim" not "Exim". Aw heck with it, just call me Scott.
