This game is always hard on the eyes.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

By the way, did you know Gordie Howe is only 86 years old?

Can the Wings win in OT or a shootout tonight?

 

[Cobiemonster]

Honestly the Wings should smoke Carolina

Wings have gotten points in 14 of their last 15 games at home.

So I just came across three douchebags in my 10 minutes trip to McDonalds down the street.

1st douchebag takes forever turning left into McDonalds (avoiding the potholes or just senile?) I can't go. Light turns green. I sit there for a minute.

2nd douchebag has an Ohio license plate. That's already a telltale sign something douchy is about to transpire. Sure enough - he places his order, pulls his rusty truck up half a car length with no one in front of him and sits there for a minute searching for the exact change or something. I'm behind and can't pull up close enough to order.

3rd douchebag. Guy wearing a leather jacket on his motorcycle going 30 MPH in a 55 MPH zone. That is not an exaggeration. 30 MPH. Because nothing says "I'm a motherfuckin' badass with the wind whipping through my hair" like 30 MPH and five cars behind you.

I'm sippin' my drink now, though, and I'm no longer mad. In fact, I'm not even jelly.

Nice avy, Higgy.

Feels good to be watching a game and not having to worry about making the playoffs

I haven't shopped at Meijer in almost 8 years. They are building one down yonder, and I am happy. It opens this summer.

Now I just need a Coney Island and I'll be all set.



I know, that had nothing to do with this game, just felt like sharing.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Where were all our defensemen on that one?!

Your positive story offsets my negative one.

Awful pk. Soft goal by howard

 

[higgyfan4]

LOL, little waterbug, I like it.

 

[sherbert1421]

Gus misses open net. Looking like one of those games

It's one of those games.

 

[sherbert1421]

Well that period sucked

I wonder what the dollar figure was that Karmanos wrote on the board prior to the game.
