I can't help but feel that Babcock is missing an opportunity to ice the best team. There's no one better than Ferraro to call up? Having Andersson in the lineup is also pretty questionable when it forces Weiss to the wing.

I kind of thought the same thing at first.. but it's Babcock. The lines probably won't even finish the first 100% the way that they start the game.

Is Abdelkader officially out?

Last report I read from Khan was "questionable." Looking for more answers after morning skate.

Let's go Wings!!! Most exciting time of year.

Aside from the penalties how do you all think Frk would do if given the chance in the playoffs despite NHL ice time? Would it be a complete bust for him? He has size and speed.

I am so freaking amped up already. I work right next to the Verizon Center in D.C. and last night there were Caps and Islanders fans all over the place going NUTS for the game. I haven't been able to relax since then. Today would only be better if I were in Detroit.

Wings win. 3-1. Goals by Sheahan, Kronwall, and an empty netter by Glendening. Screw Tampa. The Wings rule! Detroit rules! Lafayette coneys rule!

It's playoff hockey *******!

Welcome to thunderdome!

Justin Abdelkader on ice as Red Wings start morning skate here at Amalie Arena.

Ansar Khan ‏@AnsarKhanMLive 49s50 seconds ago

Optional morning skate for Wings with about 15 skaters including Abdelkader.

Let's hope! lol

Hopefully this means he will be ready for Game 2. I can't stand seeing Anderson on the 3rd line and Ferraro on the 4th.

Maybe I'm late to the party but how come Pulks isn't in the projected lineup?

Wings win 11-10.

Third line gets half the goals and Andy gets a hatty.

Mrazek sets an odd record where he never let in a single goal. All 10 of TB goals were own goals by the Wings during delayed penalties.

If this happens, expect a PM from every person on the board asking for lottery numbers.

(But just give the real ones to me, ok?)

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.

Lol. The old "Detroit sucks because it's poor" argument again eh? Lame. Tampa's entire economy revolves around bilking retirees out of the social security checks. Not sure I'd double down on economic pride if I were them.

2 Keys, Obviously we needs one of these 2 guys to play some good goal and if we can get out of our own end with control and not get stuck in our own end for long periods of time I think we will be fine. Wings in 4.


No Abby, Cole or Franzen. As if the Wings weren't already small and easy to play against at forward.

I think the Lightning will win in six, but I'm still holding out hope the Wings team of pre-March makes a reappearance.

Playoff hockey, though. Let's do this.

I agree with the first 2 but the Mule has been fragile for 3 years and wouldn't make much of a difference in a series where puck control and speed could be the key.

Not to mention they had to restrict ticket sales out of fear that wings fans would out number bolt fans on their home ice :P

There are two types of people who live in Tampa Bay. 80 year old retirees from Michigan who are too frail to handle the winters...

And people conceived by weak sperm.

Ah Tampa. Home to the worlds geriatric population, and the biggest ASS in hockey... I mean literally, look at the size of that thing.
