Dan Dekeyser Watch

[canadian wings fan 305]

Will play in his first NHL game tomorrow night vs Avalanche. Lets see how the kid does!

[dropkickshanahans 463]

Isn't Quincey playing tomorrow too?

[evilmrt 636]

Yeah Quincey is back.

This and the Flames game on the 17th are the only "easy" wins remaining.

[BadgerBob 297]

Quincey and White are both going to be playing as well as Dekeyser.

Jesus....how many of our D are playing forward? Or are 2 of them working gates? Either way, assuming Danny D plays, I hope he gets a goal, an assist, +3 rating with 5 shots and 5 hits and never sits in the press box again for the likes of Colo and White.

[evilzyme 769]

Babcock said there will be a "wholesale" change and all 3 defensemen that weren't playing last night will be playing tonight. He certainly wasn't happy with the game last night, either should anyone.

Here's to the flow.

[amato 3,210]

Yeah Quincey is back.

So those are the games we'll likely lose? Seems like we play better against better teams..

[Peadydog 98]

I'll be at the game, here's hoping the team shows up. It will be great to see DeKeyser in his first NHL game!

[matt198913 932]

Good to see he's not messing around with these guys. Create a competition with these guys

[Serratoni 49]

Colorado is 10-6-1 at home. They are a vastly different team at home than on the road. Not saying the Wings can't/won't win, just saying it probably won't be "easy."

[St. Michael (the Red Wing) 422]

I'm all for this if Dan actually plays. Mixing things up by Babs?

Shocking.

Shocking.

The funny part is that this is what a lot of LGW forum members want. They want to see the kids play. Course, when these kids screw up and make mistakes, these same forum members will have ZERO tolerance for that kind of thing.

I love that Babs is playing the kids though. Gotta have them show what they are capable of.

[ami 273]

hopefully smith is in a press box for a couple games...

[rick zombo 3,739]

^{Interesting to see who sits......}

[dirtydangles 1,328]

Im guessing cola, lashoff, kindl/smith

[wingfan1991 221]

looking forward to seeing this guy play see what all the hype is about .. and hopefully Kindl stays home.

[Din758 371]

i thought cola played well last night. smith has struggled as of late so i think hell be out. cola will prob sit though as Kron, E, Lash wont sit.

[beachwing 426]

Cola was fine his last 2 games....frustrated with Kuba busting ankles time and time again with his point shots on our PP. I know that was prbly by design but the occasional shot needs to get thru.

[matt198913 932]

Smitty had one like that last night. Shoot it wide for Pete sakes

[VM1138 1,921]

I would think they'd want Colaiacovo to get some more game time. After all, he's been out so long. But he is expendable I guess.

[DetroitRedWings1993 49]

I'm excited to see what DeKeyser can do. It's high-time he got some playing time.

[Jusek 437]

Tonight's game is a must-watch just because of DD's debut.

Only reason I woke up today.

I'd rather watch the kids screw up and make rookie mistakes and learn from them than watch some of our vets make rookie mistakes and often get rewarded with more playing time. I'm a lot easier on the kids watching their potential on the ice.
