Should be a heck of a game. LET'S GO WINGS!

I went to the game last night, and I'm pretty sure I was yelling "Cola-iacovo" more than any other wings d-man's name. He played a heck of a game last night. Keep it up, Cola!

Thanks Matt! Looks amazing as usual, and I love the quotation you used.

Let's Go RED WINGS! time for a duck hunt

After last night, Brunner has played a half-season's worth of games (41), and has 12 goals and 13 assists for 25 points. His hot start and subsequent cooling down probably suggest that might not translate to a 50 point season, but the stats definitely give me hope for his future. I definitely see him settling down more next season after getting the "rookie" jitters out of the way in this shortened one. Anyway, here's hoping we re-sign him so we can see what he's got in a full season. I think he's earned that chance this season.

I, for one, am glad Kenny wouldn't accept getting ripped off and paying double what something is worth.

Yesterday: "EDMONTON, Alberta -- Pavel Datsyuk joked that the zero-degree weather that greeted the Detroit Red Wings today in Edmonton "is like summer in Russia."" http://www.freep.com/article/20130314/SPORTS05/130314055/nhl-realignment-detroit-red-wings

We had Hasek/Osgood in '06-'07 and '07-'08, won the Jennings trophy in the latter. Pretty good tandem in my book. If you're looking for 2 big names, we can go back to '03-'04, when we had Hasek and CuJo. That turned out to be a political nightmare in the locker room, but they're two undeniably great goalies.

Babs/Holland said he's here so we have a backup who has played recently/is playing well, and that he'll probably get a start this weekend if J Mac and Monster aren't available by then. I'd probably guess Saturday against Edmonton, rather than Sunday against LA

Is Mrazek nicknamed super petr or something? just trying to get some insight into the artwork. edit: posted before reading the full thread title, now I feel a little stupid. The superman reference still evades me though.

I switched to Comcast (er... xfinity?) specifically because of the picture quality during Wings games, and because WOW! refused to get NHL Network

This may be slightly off-topic, but with all the talk about putting teams west of us so we are in the east for realignment, it may be relevant. I wouldn't mind, if 2 new teams were added, a system like the NFL or MLB, with conferences that aren't geographically split. I think we would be at an advantage in that system, along with the other central division teams, since our travel situation would probably improve and most other teams would have to travel substantially more.

I was far too lazy to just look up the team's stats, but wouldn't it be nice if Pasha's goals did count for 2?

not to nitpick, but how can our team leaders in goals and assists be tied at 2, and Datsyuk has 6 points?
