I love our young players like Helm, Filppulla, Abelkater, Mursak, Smith ... they bring so much energy!

I feeeeel good (duh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh), I knew that I wooould! (I agree, in case you couldn't tell.)

More great teamwork. I mean, you can't get much more of a wide range of offensive contribution than that (unless you got Franzen in there...man, am I on his butt lately), and everybody was on it defensively, too. Granted, Minny didn't put up much of a fight, but this isn't a 3-2 win we're talking about, this was 6-0! Now THAT'S the kind of score I like to see against a struggling team! Especially when we're missing our star forward and d-man. Good stuff.

Yeah, our young guys are doing great - I love having Mursak and Smith with us now, and our regulars always have a ton of heart, especially Helm. You can tell he's trying really hard, and I'm glad it paid off for him tonight.

Sorry everyone, I went out last night and got chocolate wasted. Regardless, when I looked at my phone and saw 6-0 I freaked out.

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

Brendan Smith's mom is definitely OK in my book. She tried to get a pic of him when he came out after the game as the third star, and it didn't work, and she said, "s***"! What's really funny is she seems to have this little high voice, and I could just HEAR her say it out loud. :lol:

You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I like how the headlines say the Wings ended the home losing skid. I guess after 23 games in a row, two home losses is a "skid." :lol:

I realize the lights are about to finally get turned out on this thread but I thought i'd try here first: I can't find a video of the Wings shift where they spent 1:14 in the Minni zone and then scored.

Yes, I searched, but my GoogleFu sucks and I haven't found it. I guess I wouldn't be suprised if it's not up anywhere yet, and it would take up the enitre NHL highlight video of that game so I'm not faulting NHL.com. I want to post it in a hockey thread on another forum I'm on.

Anyone seen a video with a link?

Thanks either way.
