I’ve been awake since 5 am and I have a bruise twice the size of a puck on my thigh. This postgame is going to be bitchy. Final Score: 3-2 Blues  (Hello Mr. Petrella!) Important Things The first period was goalless, with two penalties for each team. Our power play didn’t look great here. The […]

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT After seven games of gloriousness, the Wings came back down to Earth with a loss to the Dive on Sunday. They’ll look to get back to the river that is running to the promised land tonight in St. Louis. 7:30 PM at whatever the current name of St. Louis’ […]

Final Score (Hi Dad!) 4-1 Red Wings. The Skinny The Red Wings marched into Buffalo and picked up right where they left off in Detroit. A 4-1 curb-stomping actually looks closer on the scoreboard than it was in reality. That the Sabres are a playoff team right now is beyond me — chalk another one […]

PRODUCTION VALUE! The Wings and Sabres meet for the first time this season. The Wings are riding a six-game winning streak into Northern New York, where nothing good happens and everyone’s miserable because there’s probably already 38 inches of snow on the ground. Make sure you check out blog Buffalo Wins’ 5-on-5 with our site. […]

We’re doing something a little different tonight, since the artsy one has the reins. This is my first time writing a postgame and I’m banging it out before my own game tonight, so bear with me. SCORE: 4-2 Wings (Hi, Mr. Petrella!) First period: Call it woman’s intuition, but I could feel that Datsyuk goal […]

WHAT’S ALL THIS THEN First of all, I haven’t done one of these in like two weeks, so you know it’s going to be rough. Things that don’t help: I’m stuck in San Jose for the week and have to go to a Sharks game on Thursday. Wings v. Bolts. Stevie Y is back in […]

Final Score (Hi Dad!) Wings 4, Ducks 2, California Power Grid -1 The Skinny Detroit ended their first extended road trip of the season on a positive note, dropping the Ducks 4-2. The Wings will head home to Detroit, splitting the four games evenly and lifting their overall record to 11-7-1. Solid effort for the […]

IT’S TIME I HAD A GOOD TIME, AIN’T GOT TIME TO WASTE The Wings close out their first Western road trip by playing old friends, the Ducks. Puck drops at 8pm Eastern. If the Wings can play like they did yesterday, they should be able to handle the Ducks, who are struggling in the early […]

Final Score (Hi Dad!) Wings 4, Kings 1 The Skinny A very strong second period proved to be the difference-maker as the Red Wings ended their two-game slide, earning their first points of the road trip. They’ll have to hope their legs don’t seize up in the next twenty-four hours, since they’ll have to do […]

BLOW AWAY The Red Wings stumble 340 miles south after being embarrassed by the Sharks in “The Tank” to face another California-based foe. This time, it’s the Kings at 4pm Eastern, and the game will be featured on NHL Network, so get ready to bitch that it’s blacked out on your Game Center Live. WAKE […]
