The Wings are coming in hot, but the Blues seem to have found out how to win.

Looking for the Wings to come out strong and take this one. Go Wings.

Lets get Datsyuk and Zetterberg on the scoring sheet!

[FireCaptain]

GO RED WINGS!

C'mon Babs, make sure you show your friend Hitch who's the boss!

Continue the winning streak!

Off for this one ...Does anyone know if Jimmy starts or does Conks get the nod?

[zombi]

I'm sure that Howard gets the start. Conks probably won't play until we meet the Predators later this month, but I think that depends on how this road trip goes.

[WorkingOvertime]

Per Mlive.

Here are the lines they practiced with on Monday:

Cleary-Datsyuk-Holmstrom

Filppula-Zetterberg-Franzen

Hudler-Helm-Abdelkader

Miller-Emmerton-Eaves (Brunnstrom working in)

Lidstrom-Ericsson

Stuart-Smith (holding Kronwall's place)

Kindl-Commodore

Howard (starting Tuesday)

Conklin

I decided to drag out my old crystal ball to see who will win tonight. Unfortunately, it was fogged up and the only thing I found was the last 4 letters of the coach's last name.

[Jenny]

I would expect Conk to get one of the starts during this road trip. His last two outings were so dismal that it might be better to put him back in for a road game-- the expectations and pressure from the crowd aren't so weighty. Should be easier for him to rebuild some confidence that way.

[WizardOfOz30]

I hope we get this road trip off to a good start. I agree with Jenny, would be nice to get Conklin back in net so he's ready when/if needed.

[Krystal]

This is the only time I hate Center Ice - because they black it out for the Blues feed even though I'm 3 1/2-4 hours away. Doubly worse when they aren't always broadcasting the Blues game on this side of the state.

Darren Pang is an AWFUL announcer >.> If I had the cables to hook my laptop up to my HD tv I'd just use a stream and watch it there xD If nothing else, at least my daughter will get to watch and get excited for us to win tonight.

LGW!

Hitchcock gets quick results

The Red Wings have played against Hitchcock-coached clubs since 1995-96 (Dallas, Philadelphia, Columbus), so they know what to expect.

“You know they’re going to tighten up defensively, play real well through the neutral zone, not give us a whole lot,” Lidstrom said. “In their own zone, they usually play tougher around their net.”

Commodore, who played for Hitchcock in Columbus, said the Blues will work hard, get the puck in deep and forecheck aggressively.

“That’s what he preaches, it’s OK to try to make plays, but you need to get the puck deep,” Commodore said. “If you start turning pucks over at the blue line, then Hitch is going to be all over you.

“It’s tough as a defenseman if you consistently have to turn and race back and get the puck; you’re getting run into the end boards because nobody can hold anybody up. It wears you down over the course of the game. I’m expecting lots of pressure. I’m sure those guys will be flying.”

Good young team in St Louis.

Commie in and will have his spot for a few games to show what he can bring. I expect him to meet up with some players infront of the net big time tonight, this St Louis team has always been a chippy bunch.

I remember David Backes slashing Howard hard in the glove while he was standing up at the end of a game last year, hopefully that s***s at a minimum with Commie out there

[Electrophile]

Boy, this winning thing sure has been loads of fun, hasn't it? I suggest we continue doing it.

[ToMaToToWnWinGsFaN_24]

its "The Battle of the '*****' tonight". Hitch vs Babs

wings win 4-1

[Heroes of Hockeytown]

Boy, this winning thing sure has been loads of fun, hasn't it? I suggest we continue doing it.

And as much as they've been doing it lately, they're not out of the woods yet. A whopping four points separates 5th from 14th place.
