Not to be that guy, but why are the Senators under the Wings logo and the Wings under the Senators logo?

Damn it, you noticed. To be honest, it annoyed the fuck out of me that I could not find a banner that had the two teams swtiched around. Home team is always supposed to be on the right, right? Well...it appears that Detroit plays Ottawa so infrequently that no one's made a banner that has Ottawa on the left and Detroit on the right. I went with what was available.

Now I hate you and your eagle eyes!

lol...I'm repping the excellent effort in any event.

Tune in early, there is a pre-game ceremony honoring the victims of Lokomotiv before the game this evening.

I don't know if they will show it on TV, but most likely they will.

It appears they are showing the ceremony. Brad McCrimmon's family is in attendance.

GO WINGS!!!

MacLean also brings one heck of a mustache with him to Ottawa, which always seems to find its way into the conversation when his name is mentioned. Even Babcock couldn't resist when asked about it Thursday -- shedding some light on the kind of friendship the two have built.

"I've seen some pictures and I think it's smaller, because he's down about 40 pounds, I think," Babcock said, smirking. "It used to be bigger when he was bigger ***8230; but that's quite the cookie duster, to say the least."

lol

I about lost it when Liam McCrimmon put on his dad's jersey. Feel so bad for that poor family.

Beast. Gone but never forgotten.

When that happened, my dad said, "Don't worry kid - you'll grow into it."
