Cruising down i30 from memphis, headed for the game at the last minute

Cruising up I40 right now, headed for Nashville. Let's go wings! Sitting in section 102!

Last wings game I was at in Nashville was the epic shootout game.

GO RED WINGS!

C'mon Babs, make sure you show your friend Hitch who's the boss!

Continue the winning streak!

To each their own. I actually laughed out loud when he made the "night night" gesture..

Great stuff!

Ouch.

To me gesturing like that after a fight is an ******* move. Reminds me of Patrick Roy's cocky son.

Arena?

Q . Any updates on replacing Joe Louis Arena?
A . Like I've stated before, we're gonna have a new arena. That's the best thing I can say.

Eastern Conference move?

Q . OK, once and for all, are you gonna get the Wings out of the Western Conference or not?
A . The commissioner (Gary Bettman) promised me I was next. We even had a meeting over lunch this past season, and he had all his people here, and he goes, 'Yeah, I promised Mike he'd be the next one to go in the Eastern Conference.' So I expect to be in next year. Jimmy D (Devellano) is on the phone every other week reminding them.

A couple other little items, but these two sound very promising!

I'm with ya. People have a very short memory..

He calls the goalie "Suzy!" Haha.

I must be one of a few who aren't all that surprised.

Heavy Eric never forgets..

A defenseman who can time travel to five years ago when he was 26 years old and bring that current form to today?

Yes sir! I've been waiting too!

Hahaha. I saw that.

Well there's your problem right there.  Gary already took it...


Glad to oblige...

I'm sure someone will pipe up and say that Bettman already got that.

my guess: 9.85 mil., a vial of leprechaun tears,an angel's pubic hair, and Sidney Crosby's virginity.

Nah, just end of the season mind purge.. especially so since it wasn't Red Wings related.

I vaguely remember some hullabaloo about it, but not much else..

not often one can use hullabaloo in a sentence.. +1 for me.. haha

Hold, on.. You dont remember this hit?.. Were you living under a rock for about the 3 weeks following it? Haha..

Anyways, Pacioretty even tweeted that he didn't wanna see any charges pressed and just wants to move on.. too bad none of the people in Montreal agree.

Lol, guess no one wants me running the thread tomorrow.  No worries.

You did fine.


As for my guess - the Wings trade the 3-2nd round picks for 6-3rd round picks, then in a stunner, they stand up, flip the draft table and declare "OUR TEAM IS GOOD ENOUGH!" and promptly exit the arena forgoing the rest of the draft for a shopping trip to Mall of America.

Someone's got the news about Atlanta and Winnipeg on his mind..

Haha

As has been said many times here and in the media - Nashville will probably mortgage the farm to match any offers and keep Weber.

I'd trade Hudler and a 2 cases of Vernors to the Atlanta Predators just for the rights to Weber (does it work that way?).

Remember, Weber was Lidstroms first overall pick in the All Star Game.  Weren't they like a plus 25 or something combined?!!  After himself, HE STARTED HIS FRIKIN TEAM WITH SHEA WEBER!

Although, the end result was not a cup, I would like to say THANK YOU to the Red Wings for another AMAZING season.

It's great to be a Red Wing fan and watch this team night in and night out through all the ups and downs.

It's almost comical how Detroit goalies seem to half-ass the regular season and then flip the proverbial switch in the playoffs.

Howard's been flat out great in this round. If not for him, there wouldn't be a game on Tuesday.

GO WINGS!

In the presser, Babcock said, "...if Mule tells me he's good to go, he's in."

Hello! How about doing some coaching here and saying, "you know what Johan, you're not 100% and I really don't need you handicapping the team for game six. Kthxbye. Rest up for the WCFs."
