Big chance to put some distance between us and the rest of the division.

Blues 2 (who cares)

I'm guessing it will go into OT but the home win streak magic continues and makes it an OT or SO win.

This is the big one. No more shootouts, I think. Hopefully the Wings will make a statement and turn this into a laugher, but I'll take two points any way I can get them.

The Wings better bring their A-game, so to speak. St. Louis has a lot to play for and the Wings need to start separating themselves from the pack a bit more.

That's why you need to turn it into a drinking game. Take a shot every time Eddie mentions either the Blackhawks or one of their players. Make it two shots if he mentions Toews & the Hart Trophy in the same sentence. Granted doing that would mean you'll be drunk halfway through the 1st. Might want to switch that to every time he mentions a Wings or Blues player during the game for the sake of your liver.

I'm really hoping that the Blues stay out of the box tonight as the Wings PP seems to do nothing but kill their momentum lately. I'll say 2-1 Wings in a shootout again with Bert netting #300 & Pavs in the shootout.

The Blues have been having trouble scoring lately. Hit 'em fast and hit 'em hard for a full 60 minutes.

Wings: 3 (Val, Huds and Bert)
Blues: 1 (Maybe)

Have to chug for ten seconds whenever you hear "all you young hockey players out there".

Really looking forward to this game, and will be a good test for sure. While the Wings are currently on a nice little win streak, they have hardly been dominant over those games and some of them could have easily gone the other way.

As others have said, I want a really solid showing tonight, these guys don't let in too many goals so the Wings can't afford to make many mistakes.

Tired of hearing about Malkin so I hope Datsyuk closes in on that scoring race a bit more. :thumbup:

Thanks for the GDT, Mike. LGW!

I don't believe in must win games mid season, but this is a game we want to win in regulation, moreso than ever.

Wings will go with the same lineup as against Columbus per Khan.

You may not like tough hockey, but it's winning hockey.

You could always watch the game on mute and then listen to the stream of FSN or if you can Ken Kal on the radio stream.

Hope they play hard tonight, they'll have to since it's a nationally broadcast game. I don't care who scores I want goals from the Wings...more than you allow the Blues.

Go Wings!!
