Thank god no Lehtonen

 

According to Dallas morning news he will be in, but it isn't concerning because he obviously is tired which is why he wasn't going to start to begin with. They obviously are scared of how much better we've been playing and want to start Kari, but it is never a good idea to start a tired goalie even if he "thinks he'll be ok". Look at Howie last year he had a couple bad games playing tired so that we didn't have to play conks, the end result would be the same, only Howard did not get the extra rest and we had to put conks in against Chicago

I stay optimistic. DAL 1-3 DET. 

[Euro_Twins]

Well I must get going to work, I will be watching the game from the start around 11 when I get home. Hopefully it's a good one, GO WINGS!!

Mike Heika (Dallas Morning News, covers the Stars) says that Lehtonen will be in goal tonight.

 

 

 

I'll update the OP shortly.

Out of class at 8:15 so gonna miss the first two, hope I don't have much of a third period to watch because Bert buried 7 already.

 

Let's go Wings.

Might help the Wings tonight, or it might not, but I thought this tidbit about the Stars' travels was interesting, heading into the game.  From the Dallas Morning News Stars blog...
 

Weather concerns forced the Stars to stay in Columbus Monday night following a 2-1 loss, so they flew Tuesday at 11 a.m., got to their hotel around 1 p.m. and are napping now for the game.

 

Playing against a team that travelled here just a few hours ago, playing against a goalie who played yesterday, while we've had a day of rest since our last game... Those are a few advantages that the Wings really need to grab a hold of.

I find the lack of Star Wars references/jokes/puns disturbing. 

 

But LGW

I would think just having to stay in Columbus another night would sap all of the life out of them.

As long as Kindl and Franzen are on this team, we lose more than we win....

 

Stars 5-2... (4 PP goals)

I see what you did there.

Referees Dan O'Halloran-13 & Darcy Burchell-42   Linesmen Scott Cherrey-50 & David Brisebois-96  

  Does this mean that O'Halloran will waive off all of Brisebois' calls?

[Marty Barry]

The Force will be strong with this team tonight. Wings 6 (minimum) stars 2. An epic goalsplosion.

That's funny because it's been the opposite with them on the team.

 

Wings 6 goals franzen with 5 goals and Kindl with the 6th

[GoWings1905]

Higher total:

O'Halloran waved off goals or Red Wings actual goals?

[brett]

no helm no win

[Barrie]

No way the Stars win again at The Joe. Despite the jokes and the "oh woe is us" attitude on the borad the first 5 games, I think, other than the game in St. Louis, we are playing well and this team is entertaining to watch.

 

4-1 Wings.

Honestly, I would LOVE nothing more than for those two (and Q) to prove me wrong and become a force with this team. Why wouldn't I want it? Heck, we already own them, if they became stars, that is great! But I have been watching them far too long....I know better.

[lacrossekid2]

Well looks like I'm gonna have to bench Kari tonight, I expect the Wings to absolutely tear him a new one tonight. Vegas seems to think this one will be a tough game though, only at -165 tonight

[MabusIncarnate]

Good news is we are most likely facing whatever backup replaced the injured Nilstrop as Lehtonen played last night unless he's getting double duty.

 

I want a showing like we had against Minnesota, let's win definitively boys. I predict 6-2 final Wings.

Nevermind looks like Lehtonen again..

Homer isn't here anymore, so more Wings actual goals.
