gdt ECQF Game 1 GDT : Red Wings at Tampa Bay Lightning, 7:30 EST

I wonder how Weiss will do in his first playoff game as a Red Wing

He'll get 3:30 minutes of ice time, an assist, and a shorthanded turnover.

So, the usual.

In Tampa they're apparently beating the same drum Flip has heard his whole career. "SHOOT MORE!!!!"

He finished the season with 91 SOG. Jurco has more shots on goal then Flip and he only played 11 and a half minutes a night for 63 games. Whereas Flip played 19 minutes a night for 82 games, 3:23 of which is on the power play.

I always liked Flip but good god, he's been hearing this whole career and doing little about it.

Must be a different drum though since the drum the Wings had probably looks like this:

bad gas?

LOL

I think he was referring to the media attention that Z is getting right now. It would be darn near impossible to get to your locker when the media is in the room.

Apparently a Tampa area blogger published an article bashing the city of Detroit and the lightning website and Twitter posted it.... So, this guy wrote a perfect comeback article.

Stay classy, Tampa Bay.

The detroit blogger is reaching a bit. A slice of Little Caesars vs a Cuban sandwich? Seriously? That blogger has no fracking taste buds

Also, no love for Matty Moron's Ambassador Bridge. Ship everything associated with the guy to Mars.

Watching the clock at work... Nothing like the zing of playoff hockey in your veins to make that second hand look slower.

Get that W tonight boys! LGRW!

24 straight years. Its still light outside starting to get hot in the house, and theirs just a feeling of anticipation in the air. Easily my favorite time of the year.

[WingsAlways 486]

Jonathan Drouin a healthy scratch tonight, apparently replaced by J.T. Brown. Haven't seen this posted yet.

A case could be made for the beginning of the playoffs. Kind of a pre-series blessing.

In the playoffs every game is a must-win game.
