So important that we should hire Russell Crowe to give the team a pregame speech, in his Gladiator character.

would rather just prefer MCDC just being in the locker room. Doesn't need to say anything (although much appreciated). His presence would be enough boost.

 

[theYman]

I'm not a scientist but I think this might be the most important game of the year. Anybody?

 

[Snuggs]

Said before me, Red Wings and fans most important game of the season! IF you told me before the season started it'd come down to the last handful of game to decide if Wings are in/out of playoffs.... I'd say awesome. Been a fun/wild ride!

 

[RabidBadger]

Debrincat needs to get his arse in gear down the stretch.

 

[izlez]

Believe it or not, STILL not a must win game and other games will be more important

Pssh, whatever helps you sleep.

 

[RedWingzz]

please just show up and compete

 

[RED WINGS STOMP]

Win or die, kill or be killed.

Or real life equivalent, Dan Campbell.

 

[Pizza!Pizza!]

sad it even got to this point with how well the Wings were rolling this year but hopefully they can put a good win streak together and get to the show

 

[GarlicbreadTB]

Just win part 2

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Ras still out. Walman "available" but still not 100% so it sounds like won't be in the lineup tonight.

Husso apparently may do a conditioning stint in Grand Rapids but at this point for the season i'd have to think he's lost the starting and backup job to Lyon and Reimer.

As much as I would have loved March not to have happened and for us to be comfortably in the WC2 spot and possibly competing with TB and Tor for their spots, it is awesome to be playing relevant games this late in the season again.

This game and the Pens game are the two biggest games we've been able to play in a decade. On top of that its win and you're in for these guys. That's an amazing situation to be in with 5 games left.

I just want to see them leave it on the ice the next 5 games. No late starts, avoid dumb penalties, skate until you can't no more. If they do that win or lose, I will enjoy this ride. It's playoff hockey... we are just starting a bit early!

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

I'll be back in attendance tonight! Gonna make that 4-0 streak this season 5-0!!

 

[lhsgolf19]

Hopefully it's just maintenance for Seider

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Crazy how good a start Veleno had and just how much he has dropped off that he is a winger on a Czarnik line.

The only line Czarnik needs to be in is for fajitas in the press box.

 

[SoupGuru]

All they have to do is win tonight. That's it. Simple. I don't understand why they have to make it seem so difficult.

When you see him on the ice in a playoff chase it's hard not to say Jack Roslovic was worth a 4th round pick... kicking a dead-horse though, I'm happy to be where they are with how the losing streak went. Entertaining with a real shot to make it still.

 

[RED WINGS STOMP]

Thank God they wised up and got Czarnik away from DeBrincat and Kane.

Hmm. My drink/no-drink experiment is a 2 and 1 split so far. Thoughts...?
