Hope I can stay up for this one! I hope to see Smith play well and I am hoping that Dats more shoot puck.

abby deserves to get a shot on the top line with pavs, kid has earned it. hopefully his energy and hard fore-checking will be enough to get pavs going.

This line could be dangerous- a sniper, a puck-handler, and a physical presence.Mule - Dats - Abby

I am a little disappointed with these line changes. Franzen never works out good with Pavs I do not understand why Babs refuses to put Fil or Huds with Pavs for a game. ANyways, hopefully Pavs lights it up tonight... the game is against the Sharks and lately the only 3 players who show up against the Sharks are Dats, Hank and Nick... so I predict a big night by those 3. Go Wings!
Bab's said Huds might be on top line for a bit....along with Brunny and Homer.
"Pav and Mule together, start with Abby. They might have Huds a bit, might have Brunner a bit, might have Tommy a bit,'' Babcock said. "I'm going to go with Fil and Cleary and Z. It's more to get Cleary back to being on the net, so he's doing what he's supposed to do and to help out that process.''

Probably his back issues he is having.
Wings actually showed up for the last game against the Sharks...and that was during The Slump so let's hope they show up tonight too.

Thanks to the poster above for the info... I have not been able to find any info on Babs talking about lines at all today. It is nice to know. I really like the idea of Fabian up there with Pavs and Mule.... that could turn out to be a really fun line.

I almost wonder if Abby being on the top line is to buffer some of the Sharks from trying to get too physical with Datsyuk? No offense to Cleary; but a Franzen-Datsyuk-Cleary line isn't going to deter anyone from taking a run at Pavs. At least with Abdelkader out there they have to think twice before committing to a nasty hit because they KNOW Abby will make 'em answer for it.

Another year, another season, and another game with the Sharks.
Yet, for me, this is clearly not just another game. There are three teams that I truly hate: the Sharks, the Penguins, and the s***hawks
(do your best Jim Lahey impersonation here).
Heck, these days, I hate the Sharks more than I do Avalanche. I did not think that was possible. I even bought a book to remind me,
and help me reminisce, about our rivalry and my hatred for the Avs.
Back to tonight. It does not hurt to remind oneself that Asian civilization and culture, at over six thousand years old, is among the
oldest and wisest in the world.
They eat sharks.
The Euro-brethren core of our beloved team needs to learn and take inspiration in this fact.
So, tonight, we butcher. Cooking optional. Hell, we don't even have to eat.
Just win.

Zetterberg and Datsyuk finally get their heads out of their asses and both get goals. Wings win eleventy billion to one.

I don't hate the Sharks more than I hated the Avs or Anaheim, but they're beginning to really annoy me, for sure. I guess I don't hate them because they don't really take all that many liberties recently with our team that I can think of. But I would be positively ecstatic should the Wings beat them into the dirt.
My most hated:
Pittsburgh
Anaheim
After that, nobody really. The Sharks are a rival, but not an arch-rival yet. And Chicago hasn't been a direct threat to the Wings yet in the playoffs or in any significant games to really hate them. I know I should, and out of respect for history I can never root for them, but I don't hate them yet.
