Marvin Daniels, the father of Red Wings’ TV play-by-play man Ken Daniels, died Friday at 96. Ken Daniels worked Friday’s game before heading to Toronto to handle family arrangements. Dave Strader will do play-by-play for Fox Sports Net Detroit on Sunday at Colorado, while Matt Shepard will call Tuesday’s game at St. Louis.


condolences to the Daniels family and friends

Very Sad news! Thoughts are with you and your family Ken. Ken is by far the best NHL play by play man in the league!

Sucks to get Dave back for one game this way. Would have been nice if Mickey could have been there.

May the Daniels family find comfort at this tough time.

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: $30

My condolences to the Daniels family, particularly during the Holiday Season.

Money on the Board 2013:X cents for each scoring jersey number (example: 13 cents each time Datsyuk scores, etc) with double for powerplay goals and triple for shorties. Same for multi-goal games (double, triple, etc). Each round's total will also be multplied by round number.

 

Total (after Game 3 vs. Hawks): $17.01

What a wonderful long life, 96 years old. Still, sorry to hear of Ken's loss, and thoughts and prayers to the family. Dave will do great in Ken's absence. RIP, Mr. Daniels.

very sad to hear, but at 96, it sounds like his father lived quite a long and productive life.

As for the game, is anyone excited to hear Dave Strader back with Mickey? I always thought those two were fantastic together.
"I can't believe I shook this guys frickin' hand. We lost and I'm pissed off. But to see Kris Draper's face makes me sick. I didn't see his face until after the game, but his face is turned sideways. If the league doesn't do something about that ... I mean that's ridiculous. He could have broken his fricken neck."

It'll probably be Dave and Murph I don't think Mickey was there last night.



Sorry for Ken's loss but at least his dad lived a long hopefully happy life.

Thanks Offsides

Thinking of Ken and his family
Raising another Red Wings Fan!

Money on the board-SCP 2013
I'm going with the 22 special. 2 bucks for every 22 goal. 2 bucks for every 22 fight
5 bucks for every series win....another 5 for every shut out! LETS GO RED WINGS!!
ADDENDUM: Since it looks like Toots may not reinserted in the series, I would like to offer Bert his money on the board. So, 2 bucks for every Bert fight, 2 bucks for every Bert goal AND since OT has been a pattern, I want to add 5 bucks for any RED WINGS OT winner. LET'S GO RED WINGS!!!!

Condolences Kenny.

Strades is the best of the best. He'd be great with a an empty coffee cup. Too bad VS wastes him with their crew.

He and Panger were great for a spell.
