My guess is he will be out 3-4 weeks.

3-4 weeks of Bernier is not that bad....oh wait.
He was fantabulous last night. Except in the shootout where a beach ball would have went through his legs.

Any post now, Waldorf will be here singing praises of Macaroni for scoring the GWG.



And of course, Loywov for scoring the first goal.

Perhaps they are interested in Trevor Lewis.

He'd make a perfect addition since he has done ZERO for the Kings since opening night.

He's a perfect match!

Notice "this stuff" because I'm in a hockey pool.


I like Saad and Pirri on the Hawks...both non-1st rounders.

Meanwhile, the Oilers with their bazillion high picks are dying.

Ravioli is...I picked him up when he got called up.



It makes total sense to me that he'll be getting some prime minutes with the injuries to Carter and etc.

Don't have Ghey though. You can have him.

Toffoli is going to stay up with the team when peeps come back from injury.

Oh and it appears that Sutter is gonna put the kids on their own line...like he did at the tail end of the Islanders game. I guess he figured out how awesome that was.

Now if the kids can play the boards and play some D......all will be golden!!!
Tanner Pearson – Linden Vey – Tyler Toffoli
The future is very bright!

Anyone want Fraser, Lewis, or Stoll?

The Leaves. Duh.

If this keeps going, we should call them the Toronto Kings.

Well...

1. The Wings lost at home in yet another SO.
2. Some chick almost spilled half a beer on me trying to catch a free pizza pizza.
3. And then I lost seven hundo on the blackjack tables at MGM.

So in other words, I managed to pull a Dom-Trick last night.

Yeah, Fibs...WTFBBQ is wrong with the Chicken Wings? Their experience and speed from playing in the Western Conference was supposed to run circles around the plodding Eastern teams...!

Yummy cakes, your beloved Wings have two problems:

1. They are two young on D.
2. They are too old up front.

Kronwall (32) and Erricson (29) are the elder statesmen and top pairing. Then you have Quincey (28), Kindle (26) Smith (24), DeKeyser (23), Lashoff (23).

So the problem is they have youth in the wrong spot which is why Detroit is not playing it's patented puck control, get it out of the defensive zone quickly offense.

Also, they are a bit snake bitten in OT and SO lately, those numbers should revert to the mean over the course of a full season.

Lastly, domcha put the $10 buck ultra douche curse on our team this season. I will hold him fully accountable for his sins if Detroit dosn't make the postseason.

Remember my warning about management playing the "consecutive playoff appearances" card. It's the first sign the teams priorities are misplaced.

Yes, and I also recall your statement last year that Holland should not have taken a run at scooping up PK Subban because he belonged on the Montreal Diving team.

Pk is still a douche, you'll come to hate him now that you see him more often.

Good point, Detroit should spend some of their cap money on a shortened season Norris award winning diving, cheap shotting douche who won't back up his actions when challenged. Circle January 24th on your calendar for your scouting report

Habs and Leaves have been rarer than Moogelino's post Stanley cup celebratory posts up in here. Excited to see more original six action at The Joe.
