The offseason is thankfully over.
Training camp is over.
Preseason is over.
It’s time for real meaningful hockey.
Follow after the jump for the first meaningful X Ways in about 4 months.
I – A very classy move by the Wings to honor Brad McCrimmon that way. It brought a tear to my eye watching his son put the jersey on.
II – I don’t think you can blame any of these goals on Anderson. I’ve seen laundry hung out to dry less than he was.
III – Kinda surprised that Don Cherry has quit working for CBC so that he could wear #11 and play forward for us.
IV – Happy showing some backhand skills.
V – There was Nick’s one goal for the season from inside the top of the circles.
VI – Apparently, the linesmen didn’t spend the offseason learning how to drop the damn puck.
VII – Sergei Gonchar makes Dustin Byfugly look like a legitimate Norris contender.
VIII – 8 goals scored, and none the fault of the goaltenders. Won’t see that too often.
IX – Through 2 periods, the Wings were just out hustling, out working and just flat out out playing the Senators.
X – An October with meaningful Lions, Tigers and Red Wings games? YES PLEASE!!!
Up next: @Colorado State Diving Team, 9pm Saturday. Which will be DVRd so I can watch game 1 of the ALCS
