1/21: Red Wings 4 at Blue Jackets 3 (SO)

[CrimsonFlame 424]

Wings win 5 to 3. Go into the third down 3 to 2 as well. It wouldn't be the wings if we don't have a heart attack until mid way through the third.

Or even worse the comeback tease.

[joesuffP 1,746]

Tootoo fights on his first shift

[kipwinger 8,524]

I was just getting ready to say that we'll see a fight tonight. Pumped.

[puckbags 863]

4-2 Wings Big night from out top line (Brunner x2, Dats, Z)

[Marty Barry 230]

I hope our boys show up, but after a 1 game analysis I say that Detroit has lost it's identity with the loss of it's #1 superstar and c-bus has gained an identity with the loss of it's #1 superstar. The latter's identity being - TEAM. C'mon boys.

[HOCKEY MATTERS 167]

I hope they boys aren't lazy and don't suck like they did on Saturday. Man, they stunk the place up! Here's to a little spring in their skates and some hitting, for Pete's sake. TooToo gets a good one in and no penalty for his efforts. Wings wake up and squeak out a 4-3 win in shoot out.

edit: recording the game. Going to the Clinton-Macomb library to see my old pal Fred Preibe, who is a very credible Abe Lincoln reenactor, give a talk on why he took so long to issue the Emancipation proclamation. I loves me some history....

Just for s***s and giggles, something to look at before the game starts without starting a new thread.

Doesn't mean anything after just one game. But, how long has it been since we saw something like that? I have to say that I am afraid that we will lose tonight, but I am. Can't picture the radical type of change we need in just 2 days. Please prove me wrong Wings!

wow theyre 18th? i was expecting much worse than that

i would like a goal and a fight tonight and no breakaways against. that would be sweet thanks

Watching Blues - Preds while waiting for the game to start. This Tarasenko kid is the real deal, already 1+1 and drew a penalty on what was an almost certain second goal. I really don't like the idea of having him in the division for the next few years at least.

Does anyone expect any mix matching tonight with the lines?

I want to say Babcock made only one or two changes during the game on Sat night.

[Guest irishock]

2-1 wings

[Hockeymom1960 5,107]

Let's go boys! You can do this. Just because you're missing Homer, Stuart and Lids doesn't mean you guys can't pull together and win.

I say the top line stays the same. Maybe some tinkering on the others. But what do I know?

Agreed, I think the topline will be on a short leash if they don't their game going we might see two more balanced lines centered by Datsyuk and Zetterberg.

[AFwinger 21]

Will get back in track with a 5-3 win.

Exactly, split the twins once again. Wish we had more "top 4 depth".

Give 'em a game or two more. Last game was just impossible to draw any conclusion from, hopefully tonight is where we actually start seeing them look like a team and then we can start analyzing what works and what doesn't.

[S.H.M.B. 25]

Any streams this week?

On top of that, weren't they split for the majority of last season? Can't expect them to "click" like they used to so quickly, can we?

[canadian wings fan 305]

Remember the glorious days of Dats,Z and Homer together? Zetter and Pavel consistently coming close to 100 pts....

[Pskov Wings Fan 71]

Watching STL-NSH game while waiting for Red Wings to start. Tarasenko is no fluke. Already got goal and an assist in the first period against Nashville.

[rrasco 1,312]

Heh....I thought Columbus was Central time for some reason, just turned the TV on and the game is about to start. Talk about fluke!

[Lonewuhf 47]

Does anyone know of any streams anymore? I can't figure out which directv package I need for FSN, thought I had a package that had it, but apparently not. Need to be able to watch the game tonight!

The game is on NBC Sports Network tonight, meaning: even with Center Ice, if you are outside of the Detroit RSN you are forced to watch NBC Sports Network. Sucks, I know. Channel 220 on DTV if you have that channel

Anyone paying attention to the NSH v. STL game? 3-2 NSH currently, and NSH was beaten by Columbus....goes to show how pathetic the effort was by the Wings....
