I'm assuming Jaroslav Halak will get a shutout

SirPaste · 01-19-2013, 09:33 AM

Woo!

Cant wait for tonight, need my hockey fix. Really excited to see Frank play in person. So what are the chances that we can get a Carlo chant going tonight, since Osgood is no longer a Wing.

last_sd · 01-19-2013, 09:37 AM

Could any of you guys post most likely line up combo for Blues tonight?

Yay hockey is back!

EDIT:

this is Wings' practice line yesterday

Z- Datsyuk- Brunner
Franzen- Fil- Samuelsson
Eaves- Abbie- Cleary
Miller- Emmerton- Tootoo

Kronner- Ericsson
Quincey- Smith
Cola- White

Howard

Injury: Helm, Bertuzzi, Kindl

CarvinSigX · 01-19-2013, 09:39 AM

Where's that ridiculous Russian video when we need it?

Blues win 3-2...CarvinSigX gets drunk.

Not sure if Schwartz is getting the start over D'Ags tonight, but that would be my guess.

LOL, correction, he wont even start the game, bc he has a tooth ache..laughed so hard when i saw your comment

Lets hope for a good game, and that no one gets hurt their first game back. Refs will be all over obstruction anyways, so it will be a slow game
