Red Wings At Blues Open Thread

Don’t be shocked if Andy Murray bows from fan pressure and plays Perron for close to 20 minutes tonight and then perron scores a hat trick with two assists in a blow-out Blues 9-2 victory over Detroit. Wait. Strike that. Be very shocked if any of that happens.

I said in another thread….Blues pull out win. 5-3, its going to be ugly,
but for some reason, my feeling is the Blues win this one.
and if not, I am covered…it was detwat for cryin outloud.

Oh, and Brewer STILL sucks.

Football? What do mean? Do they actually kick it more than once every game? So stupid… ;)

Hope Manny has a good game tonight. Go for the win!

I thought DanGNR was your middle name.

Ugly sound sgood to me. The Blues need to let the Wings know they can’t just speed skate into their zone without paying a physical price. The Blues can’t out skate the speedy Wings, but they can outmuscle them. Hit ’em hard and hit ’em again. Now that Jackman and Tkachuk are starting to remember how to play physical, maybe they cna put it to use against the boys from hockey-slum.

hopefully the blues defense don’t play like runaways from the island of misfit defensemen. i cannot express how much i want to beat the damn redwings tonight.

If the Blues don’t beat them, maybe their plane can get stuck in the mud in Cahokia again.

Brad, I think your street cred takes a hit by going to the football game. You still got enough to keep your head up. Oh, and if you run into that Jackson dude tell him to learn to speak without a lisp. He is an adult, he needs to learn to talk right.

Blues win tonight by the way

Pagan, I have a pretty good idea that the Wings get stuck in the mud often.

bryce wearing an “a”

Is this the night #6 drops the gloves? He looks like he’s playing with a chip on the shoulder. Go get ’em kid!

Can someone remind me what we gave up for Brad Boyes? Cause it was certainly not enough. And I need something to give the Bruins fans crap about when I am at the game Saturday. It is my lone chance to see them live as a northeast Blues fan.

Jeebus…

Hit these cherry-pickin’ SOB’s.

Brad/Sean, loved the “who should be captain” back-and-forth between you two. I don’t necessarily think that Oshie should be captain right off the hop, but getting an exclusive interview would be worth the drive to Grand Forks…

Why did Osgood suck rancid ass when wearing the ’Note, and now is playing like a cross between Jacques Plante and Bernie Parent while wearing those used-feminine-napkin-colored sweaters?

I respect Zetterberg, but I’d pay good money to see someone just line him up and blast his candy ass into next week.

Way clean house on Franzen there Brewer!

What a game! Way to call it AM!

Alright, Dutch! Wow – the Blues capitalizing on the power play against the best in the NHL tonight…and viewers on the west side of the state could actually watch the game thanks to HDNet’s NHL coverage. FYI – Fox Sports Net sucks in KC. They only infrequently pick up Blues games.

Damn, real nice come from behind win. Nice to see Stempy looks to be breaking out of his ugly slump. Was great to listen online as I do a little Christmas present wrapping here in Denver.

in other news, “Brad is a moron” indeed. Marian Gaborik had 5 goals and assisted on the only other Wild goal against the Rangers tonight. and The GT front pager writer forgot to dress him for his fantasy team tonight. sorry, no points this round. lol

lol why would anyone go to a rams game when they could see the blues??? even if was the blues two years ago? okay well though the refs kept detriot in the game and brewer’s meat ball was a great save by manny the blues looked like a whole other team in the first ten minutes. impressive. liking the kariya mcdonald boyes line. and holy shit did anyone see backman make some good plays tonight? i was shocked and reminded of his cough cough potential. lgb!

and today i started to get the stares again for cheering ludly and then they became high fives…if only every game had the same energy.

Everything is good when it’s from behind. Wait, wrong message board

Didn’t go to the game, but I heard from a friend that a fan who won the lucky puck shuffle was asked to shout “Let’s Go Blues” but instead shouted “Let’s trade Brewer”.. anyone else who was at the game catch this?

Take a look at this piece about the Wings whining after the loss:

http://www.mlive.com/sports/statewide/index.ssf?/base/sports-0/119824410628370.xml&coll=6

The Detroit Free Press has a similar story with Wings players and coaches whining. The Associated Press story and everything else on the wire has no mention of possible interference on the Stempniak goal.

Is winning 12 out of 13 not enough for these punks?

Did you all in the house laugh after the Lucky Puck Shuffle?? Wonder if he didn’t get his scratcher tickets after the glare from what’s her name?

Just great to see Barrett play like I love him – pissed off as hell! Wonder if the Weight trade has him out to play better so he stays???? If he plays like this every night then he needs to stay along with Bryce who also played with a big chip on the shoulder.

I predict next week is a blood bath and Kinger makes the line-up….

Iit was nice to see John actually in the building for once enjoying a cold budweiser product. New good luck charm perhaps??? ;)

Probably won’t check in this weekend so Merry Christmas everyone!!!

1. Brad is NOT a moron. If I sold my tickets, they would have gone to a Steeler fan, which would have been like selling Blues tickets to a Wings fan last night. Not defensible.

2. The fantasy league I have Gaborik in, I haven’t checked since the second week of the season. I pay attention to the other one where some snot-nosed kid is still winning.

3. For anyone not at the game and who hasn’t read it this morning, the Lucky Puck Shuffle contestant instead of saying “Let’s go Blues” at the end, instead said “Let’s trade Brewer.” Classic.

The lady MC got owned all night:
- first the guy yells out “Zetterberg wets the bed.”
- Then “Let’s Trade Brewer” (did you see her face?? Lol)
- Then the asshole kid/mite player says his favorite team is the Penguins. I loved the fact the crowd gave him no mercy for that. LOUDEST. BOOS. EVER.

If JD lets Jackman go, I will punch him right in his bald head.

that’s a low blow

Red Wings whining? I don’t beleive it. Next you’ll say they were diving.

What a bunch of Detroit twats. “Ow!! Don’t hit me, you’ll hurt my girly parts!”. Tonya Harding would be their goon.

the lady MC is hot though. anyone know if she’s single??

sorry dooks angela is engaged to me. isn’t being a war hero cool?

When the guy’s clearly in the crease and backed our goalie in, that’s interference," Red Wings coach Mike Babcock said. “We should know. Homer gets those calls all the time when he’s not even near the paint. So I thought that was a swing in the game.” from the article w/the link u posted pagen.

really? i watch a lot of hockey and i see holmstrom bump into goalies all the time and no calls. in fact, since i happen to sit in back of manny for two periods a game, 13 rows back and have a clear view of the goal i have found it a hobby for the two games we played the wings at home to count how many times holmstrom enters the crease and bumps into manny without a call. last game it was only three. whiners.
