Martin Gerber will start in goal for Saturday's home opener against Detroit. Also, Mike Fisher skated with team on Friday for the first time since missing the first two games of season. - TSN
Nicklas Lidstrom, who still has some blood in his right eye, plans to make a visor a permanent part of his gear. "I'm planning on keeping it on for the year," Lidstrom said as he prepared to play Toronto. General manager Ken Holland said after Thursday's morning skate Darren McCarty (groin) could be out two to three weeks. He also told goalie Jimmy Howard (finger) that Howard is headed to Grand Rapids when he's able to play. - Detroit Free Press/Detroit News - TSN
Notes:
Dany Heatley will be wearing the "C" tonight in Alfie's absense.
MARIAN HOSSA'S BACK! (but in the wrong red )
Lidstrom is still expected to play.
Fisher is expected to play.
Alfie scored two goals in a 3-2 victory against Detroit last season.
It's not fancy or anything like Moz's would be, but not my fault! She can change it when she remembers she's supposed to be on here...

I'm kinda anxious for this one, but a loss to the Wings would still be acceptable, considering the situation and the fact that we won most of the games vs them since the lock-out. I just want the guys to step up during Alfie's absence and generate offense. I wanna see how will Gerber do against the best team in the league after a poor start. His chance to redeem himself. If he can steal us this game, i think we will owe him one

That's what I'm really hoping to see. I will be at this game, and I'm not ashamed to say that I don't hold much hope that we'll come out with a win. What I want to see most of all is every one of our players competing as hard as they can. That's what the Leafs did, and, coupled with some timely goaltending, they came out with a win.
All I'm hoping to see is effort, since that's always what we seem to be missing when Alfie's out. It's really frustrating watching the team while they look lost and uninterested. If they can come out with the solid effort they showed last weekend, I'll be more than happy.
Anyways, I'll be there screaming and making sure everyone in my section's loud. 318 baby!
lol what's with people and Basshunter? He's pretty brutal and that sound is about 10 years old! I dig that chicks handcuffs belt though, never know when you might need a pair.

This is the first time I've ever heard of Basshunter, and hopefully it will be the last.
