Guest DeGraa55 Report post Posted June 19, 2013 I hope Mr. I has stocked Red Bird III with plenty of Ginger Ales for the boys' flight home tonight! That will be the party plane for sure!! They actually ride a bus. But I know what you're saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bring Back The Bruise Bros 1,029 Report post Posted June 19, 2013 Congrats to the Griffs. Awesome game tonight. The crowd was rowdy as hell. Can't wait to see Tatar in Detroit full-time. Guy always seems to have an extra step on the defense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T.Low 1,011 Report post Posted June 19, 2013 Andersson got the pass from Tatar on the empty net 2 on 1, but instead of getting the goal himself, he waited until Tatar was in he clear then fed him for the goal. Very cool. 2 martinezsvsu and b.shanafan14 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brandon27 111 Report post Posted June 19, 2013 Tatar better be with the big club next year. After a playoff run like that, he's earned it. No more of these old guys we're hanging on to.. Im lookin at you Franzen, Bertuzzi, Sammuelsson, Cleary... etc. etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jstwatchin 23 Report post Posted June 19, 2013 Awsome game to be at. Great crowd at the War Memorial. Got high fives and fist pumps all night in my Howard jersey. Two GR/Wings fans sat right in front of us so we high fived after every goal. You can see me behind the goal to the left jump up on both Evans goal and Tatar's empty netter. Could see into the locker room as they celebrated and sang. Really cool and so happy for them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
