I am completely torn on who I want to root for (all i am asking for is no 3 pt game)

If Nashville wins in reg, Chicago will have a tough time getting into that spot... Bad news is Nashville would jump us

If Chicago wins, we stay ahead but Chicago stays in it.

Decisions, Decisions.... Who do you root for?

great play 55

I'm pumped for playoffs lol

Dude I am... I'm excited to see what this team can do... When everyone was in the lineup we were the best team in hockey

Vancouver, Pitt, Chicago or San Jose... Also I would say Nashville just because of their fans (who are pricks) at their home games  

Good effort tonight

EDIT: Great effort! I can't wait to get a few guys back on Saturday

A flying elbow from Duncan Keith.

What do you expect from a Sparty  

Two periods in and there's only four pages as I have the responses aligned.

Is it slow in here or what? Is it a reflection of playoff hopes? I know since I returned to LGW I've missed a few games, but what gives?

The trolls don't have much to yell at

and here come the trolls lol

A significant bone bruise can take 6-10 weeks for the pain to dissipate. Its a terrible injury I've had with a finger and my radius (both from blocking shots in my Jr days). If the medical staff can deem that hes not at risk for further injury (ie, stress fractures) I would like to think that training staff might start thinking about giving him localized pain masking agents. Kurt Angle won and Olympics medal with 2 broken vertebrae in his neck via taking localized Novocaine injections before matches ... numbs the pain and isnt a banned because it lacks opiate or steroidal properties. Just a thought.

What  pisses me off that a 6 million dollar player has a needless injury - if he had the skate shells that many shotblockers wear these days (Kronwall +Commie come to mind) he wouldnt have had an issue to begin with. I realize theres a comfort issue - but if I could go back and do things again I know that I would have certainly worn them.

IMO I bet if this happened during the playoffs I bet he would take a shot and some painkillers and give it a go, but they are being very cautious about this injury since we are so close to the playoffs

They get paid to win. Not to lose.

I understand that... but playing at a rival on a back to back... also we played without Datsyuk, Lidstrom, Bertuzzi, Ericsson, Howard, Kindl (and Eaves)... It was going to be really tough to win this game, I'm just glad they brought effort and didn't lay an egg

Try something other than passive-aggressive bulls***.   This is an inijured Detroit Red Wing you're chortling over.

I'm sure you're going to find this hard to live with, but I am disappointed that you felt the need to make that comment.

I apologize... I was just playing to the crowd... I actually think E is progressed really well throughout the season

Hopefully Kindl and Commie can fill the void

I predict St. Louis will now win the division.   If Detroit doesn't take top seed their chances to make it to the Stanley Cup diminish tremendously.... they are not good on the road.

St. Louis is worse than us on the road... what makes you think they will pass us?

addition by subtraction  

But really... get well soon E

I can't believe some of you want Ott... dude is a complete tool!

I want Gaustad all day every day over a guy like Ott

Creepy thing is we started out 0-1-1 in the first 2 games that jimmy was hurt then we rattled off 6 straight.... Now in the first 2 games without Pav 0-1-1.... 6 straight wins coming!
