I dreamed last night that Jimmy quit. Retired, left, what have you. I hope that's not some sort of weird omen, and rather just me feeling sorry for him right now. If Monster has a bad game, it will be him under the bus, I will just wait.

And go check the news feed to make sure I wasn't projecting.

Wings win, goals from Mule, Tater and Aflie. Yay!!

I never predict scores, but I can see Weiss tallying a goal and an assist tonight. I'd love to see him get THAT game under his belt. And, on another note, am I the only one who thought Ken Daniels said Weiss' name after Tatar's goal last night? Or am I just going nuts?

[puckbags 863]

Wings - 9 ( Nyquist 3, Alfie 3, Bert with a FG)

Kitty Cats - 2 ( Tim Thomas 2 )

[RedWang 422]

Tatar will get atleast 1 point tonight,hes hot and hes proving to babs what hes worth, shooting like a madman. Loving it. Also think Monster will improve to 9-0-1.

4-0 wings. (Tatar, alfie, nyquist, Bert)

[RedWingsRox 614]

Normally, I'd say go with the hot goaltender but this is a back to back and it's Florida ... I think it would have been safe to put JH in net.

Don't have to settle the Gus or Howie question just yet but if Howie went in and lost .. then it's ride Gus all the way to the bank.

If we win again, I'm gonna need you to keep predicting this.

He did.

Then corrected himself right after.

I thought that's what he said! Hopefully he has actual cause to use it in that way tonight

Me too, but hey, Kenny got his guy!!!

Nice work, Mabus!

We're probably going to lose this one. All the former Wings will score, and Weiss and Bertuzzi and Samuelsson will score own-goals.

Well I won't be able to watch because I'm going to watch motorcycles racing on a hockey rink tonight but....

GO WINGS!!

[Jersey Wing 1,521]

The Wings had a kind of quiet control over the game last night in NJ. I think they'll carry that forward tonight. 3-2 Detroit. It's gonna be a bigger grind than many think. Let's say Alfie pops in a goal with 4 minutes to play and Detroit wins.

[kipwinger 8,518]

So I just moved to Washington D.C. for a job and have found it difficult to watch games here. That is, until I found out that former Red Wing Brian "Bugsy" Watson has a hockey bar in Alexandria VA. The place is awesome, decked out in hockey regalia and full of Detroit faithful. If any of you should ever find yourself in the D.C. area and are looking for a game. I highly recommend checking it out.

[Nev 1,085]

Why does the sight of Kopecky on the opponents roster strike such an irrational fear in me?

Well, Havlat isn't doing much...

I, like others, would love for Weiss to get going tonight. I think this really could be a worthwhile roster IF Weiss can somehow locate his previous ability to play the game of hockey (and once everyone is healthy).

They should still beat Florida tonight even with the roster handicap. Although, the game is in Detroit.... which is a clear advantage for the Panthers.

I'm sure most of you saw during the NJ game when FSD did the get to know the player graphic on Abby that he said his favorite book is the Hunger games, anyone else surprised that he admitted that?

I like the book too, not my favorite, but surprised he admitted it.
