Still no Kronwall. And the saga continues. Put him on LTIR. Bring up McIlrath as 7th d.

This is going to be a super challenging game. I have high expectations for that squad this year, and Bishop should really shore up their goaltending woes.

I predict a 3-2 overtime loss. Don't see Dallas starting the season 0-3 at home.

This game is gonna be tough one. Dallas has put huge scoring chance numbers on the table in their first 2 games, but haven't got pucks in the net.

Now we throw Mrazek in the toughest possible spot. Hopefully kid likes that.

Usually I'm optimistic, but this time I predict a blowout for Stars. We have been a bit lucky in the first 2 games, and Stars have been unlucky. Luck will even out tonight.

Yeah, there's no way Dallas falls as flat as they did a second year. Their forwards are stupid good. Benn, Seguin, Spezza, Radulov, and Hanzal is a tremendous amount of size and skill. And I even really like their young depth in guys like Shore, Janmark, Ritchie, and Faska. Nill hasn't been perfect, but that's almost as good as forward group as you can put together with a salary cap.

If the Wings are going to sell on Green, I think you've got to assume Dallas is going to field a competitive offer for him. Green with that group would look pretty, pretty, pretty good.

All that said, it's early season here... Wings could pull this one out. I'm starting to get that itch that Winger98 was right and this current Wings team is going to keep scraping out enough points to stay afloat. This game is a nice test to see if the defense can hold.

Dallas with a good goalie is scary. With that said I would love Nielsen instead of Shehan on the 2nd pp unit. Also worried that Mrazek might get shelled.

Yeah I’m expecting a OTL tonight. Don’t see wings starting out 3-0 and Dallas 0-3 regardless of how the teams do this year

I'm still nervous with Mrazek in net. I hope he can turn it around and get his head right this year.

Manthas lazy forecheck caused that breakout for Seguin and the puck to get out of play. He needs to move his damn feet.

Did anyone see a close up replay of the goal? All I saw was Klingberg’s shot but didn’t see what happened in front of the net.

Why is abdelkader on a line with Larkin and Mantha? Seriously...what is Blashill's problem.
