Detroit looks to shake off an ugly 6-3 loss to the Vancouver Canucks but faces a Nashville team looking for it's 4th win in a row. The Red Wings got outworked by Vancouver all game long and need to bring everything to the table tonight against a Nashville team more than capable of doing the same thing.
Puck drops at 7:30 p.m. ET and can be seen on FS-Detroit. Comment below and as always, GO WINGS!

Hope the Wings don't
lay another stinker tonight. The Vancouver game was just borderline depressing.
Lucky me: I’m at my friend’s house, and the lady of the house is an amazing cook.
Unlucky me: I might have to leave for dinner in middle of the game.
Lucky me: Big HDTV with DVR. DVR’s amazing. DVR’s God.
Hello everyone!
I’m currently stuck in the 7th level of hell, so I will again be lurking this evening. Please keep me abreast of any outstanding events.
Yes sir!
I love that works computer security doesn’t recognize this site as a “social networking” site.
haha
it’s like ESPN, but we actually know what we’re talking about (or at least I’d like to think so)
I so wish i had FS-D
the actual channel so I could watch the pregame instead of the Center Ice schedule and the same music on repeat.
This is going to be a busy night for me
A Red Wings game and a CHHA playoff game roughly around the same time. Hopefully I’ll be happy at the end of the night.
They HAVE to win
They are 5 back from Bubba and only a point separates them from Calgary and The Blues, right?
Except it's not really spring
If you live in Michigan. Strange, has been warm and sunny for quite some days but we still have good amount of snow…
My friend has a habit of falling asleep during second intermission
Whether the game starts at 7:30pm or 10:30pm. Strange.
Ah, nice bounce of the boards
to Williams. Can’t get a stick on it and the puck is cleared eventually.
How in the world will we know when Tootoo is on the ice?
I’m sure there is one jackass from Bubba in the Joe tonight with a GD whistle. There always is.
Howdy
Bertuzzi took a dumbshit penalty already? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
by Michael Petrella on Mar 5, 2010 6:45 PM CST reply actions
he never does that!
at least this time he was actually going for the puck instead of his normal shenanigans
I hate having ...
the “You are watching a free preview of NHL Center ICE” thing scroll when I already have the package.
Datsyuk's glare freezes people, remember?
That’s why they all just stand around whenever he approaches
ZERO!
NOT YET… That’s what I thought, too…. but no dice.

I figured,
But the assists could have been worth up to an additional $7

And that my friends
is the worst defensive pairing in the NHL that was just on the ice for that goal.

i never hated him
as a result of the lilja thing, it just happens.
I actually think he’s a great player that deserves more credit than he gets.
He's the only star we've every had
Unless, maybe, you count Forsberg

He's a good player that I don't like, for some reason
I guess HATE is not the word, because I should reserve that for the Ducks…
yeah i didnt want to get excited
and it turns out homer had a big hit or something.
its 2-0 right?
draft micah johnson
its all good. i wish i could watch the game
not sure why when i live 45 min from nashville but they arent showing it
draft micah johnson
i feel bad for him
I think because of the injury his year is going to be one year and one year only.
OH MAN
I thought it started at 8. This is embarassing…

Nashville has the biggest collection of blue collar hockey players
that will never be know for anything individually, but together they are just exceptional.
It boggles my mind.

if they weren’t in our division, I might like them more because I like the whole hardworker attitude
I respect them. I hate them, but I respect them.

Haha just a general inquiry about the television industry in the States.
I’m in college for television production and want to get an internship in the States. Don’t worry it’s not one of those “pull some strings for me” lame ass emails. It’s more of a “what’s it like in the market and how should I go about looking”
by eight_legged_freaks on Mar 5, 2010 7:55 PM CST up reply actions
Definitely
I can help point you in a direction, for sure.

Man, don't worry about it. I have two years until internship time
I just want to know where to look, what to look for, stuff you’ve heard about places and stuff like that.

Tuzzi, on a breakaway
And he does nothing, not that I’m surprised.
by eight_legged_freaks on Mar 5, 2010 7:45 PM CST reply actions
Awesome
Looks like turnover Rafalski is back. The amazing one from the Olympics must have gotten lost in the mail.
by eight_legged_freaks on Mar 5, 2010 7:46 PM CST reply actions
I was kidding. I should have wrote (rolls eyes). But I did think he was one of our best players prior to the Olympic break. Which is like bizarro world.

Imagine what David Poille could accomplish with an actual salary allowance from his owners?

Well, I dunno. Stuart looked like doo doo. Ericsson was migraine inducing. Meech was Meech (just average) but Lebda really stepped it up and was +2 over the whole shitty run we went on.

How ironic.
We’re winning by a lot against Nashville, and Weber gets injured…

how is the game so far?
at work so i havent been able to watch a lot of it. finally found the channel though
draft micah johnson
It's 'cuz...
One of our pledgers has said “$5 for every Kronwall hit tonight.” He’s contributing a nice little chunk to the hopper. Not as much as Helm, though… He’s earned $96 for the kids tonight.

All right, I'm going to go play some Vancouver 2010 on XBOX
Be back for the third.

Just saw Helm’s second goal of the night. God, it’s good to see that kid score!

Back.
I was tired of getting dominated at snowboard cross.
by eight_legged_freaks on Mar 5, 2010 8:22 PM CST reply actions
Actually decent
I would never buy it, but my room mate did so it was fine. Snowboard cross is definitely the best event though.
And if you played Beijing, this is nothing like that. That might be the worst game I ever played.

Has anyone noticed that Zetterberg is playing perimeter way too often?
