GDT: Game 58: Red Wings at hawks 6:00 pm et 2/25/24 (ESPN+, BSD, NHLN)

"When Tina Turner puts Mad Max into the Thunderdome to fight Blaster, we hear for the first time the challenge of "two men enter, one man leaves". Today in Chicago the contestants will have skates and sticks on ice instead of chainsaws and spears in bungie cords, and the challenge could be rewritten to say "two birds enter, one bird leaves". But whether it's the Red Wings or the Blackhawks who emerge victorious, we know that both teams will be happy to just get themselves beyond Thunderdome."

good thing i dont have to rely on nhl network or any other network to watch my wings.

Yes you do, you just don't pay for it. The networks (in this case Diamond Sports/Sinclair) produce the broadcast, without a production of broadcast, no you can't watch your wings.

 

[Snuggs]

Emotional game tonight. Could get the best of the fellas.

Hoping for the best but won't be surprised if they're out played tonight.

 

[Hugh Mongusbig]

Hoping Kane and Dcat have a big game tonight.
Double hat tricks!
Let's go!!

From Chicago’s standpoint it makes ZERO sense to have Chelios Night against the Red Wings.

- Reminds everyone they traded a once beloved franchise mainstay to their arch rivals.

- Reminds everyone their idiot fans began threatening Chelios’ life as a result of trade.

- Reminds everyone Chelios won with us and not them.

I guess they just figure do it against Detroit because they know it will be a packed house atleast ?

Hopefully we wipe the floor with ‘em and everyone can reminisce about the Chelios trade.

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

I’m excited for this game. The Hawks waited too long to retire Cheli’s number but good to see they’re finally doing it.

That said, kick their asses, Detroit! Another blowout incoming?

Honestly, not only is the teams play peaking as we continue, yours is as well

Yeah - S Bill Wirtz went SILLY GOOSE...1990s Chicago had some solid teams - that is until Wirtz had to crack open his wallet...Larmer, Manson, Roenick, Chelios, Amonte, and Belfour were some of the victims

Pretty good show by Cheli during the ceremony. Kid Rock in attendance lmao. Anyone in Detroit get to see it?

"I always remained a Blackhawk at heart" somehow I feel less bad about Babcock having Cheli in his doghouse.

pray we slaughter em and have the Hawk fans booing at the end

Hopefully the boys keep chugging along, but I have a weird feeling that this is a trap game. Let's go RW keep the streak going.

I agree that it feels like a trap game but then I also tend to think Chicago is so bad we'll still win.

 

[The Real Pastafarian]

Does anyone know how bad the play-by-play and color guy will be?

This is the trap, right here

Won a cup with Montreal, won 2 with Detroit. Played more season's in Detroit than Chicago. He was born in Chicago so it's whatever.

[JediOrderPizza]

Wings wouldn't retire his anyway, so no biggy.

 

[RRhoads]

Not surprised by that. He grew up a Blackhawk fan.

 

[kook10]

is this not on espn+?

I see Mickey and Ken here in Canada, so Bally is our feed, at least for now
