[redwings85]

Just saw on Sportsnet ticker..

Howard list DTD Wrist.

 

[Flowah]

Thought it was a swollen hand

 

[PullHard]

Columbuttheads am I right guys???

Do you guys see Glendening and Tootoo as regulars going forward? And what role do you see for Samuelsson, Tatar, Nyquist, and Helm?

 

[MBauer]

Got free tickets to the game , hopefully they don't continue last seasons trend of blowing against the jackets.

 

[LeighDx59]

We need another solid game before we head out West for a few.

 

[Jusek]

Go Tigers and Red Wings!

 

[RayMoonDoh]

4-3 Det.

Datstuk
Abby
Kindl
Weiss

Columbus day again????

 

[Number 9*]

This game could be a letdown game after playing and beating Boston. Sure would have nice yesterday to see if the PP troubles are fixed or was the game vs Philly fluke? So if the PP is fixed they could very easily win this game.

 

[Tomas W]

Yeah this game worries me, with a tough game in the legs still. Hopefully DRW can get a lot of PP time, if they do I think they win. Hopefully some reff bias in our favor!

 

[Vladdy84]

2-1 Jackets. Picking against the Wings seems to work as of late.

glendening, yes. at least as long as helm is out

tootoo.. maybe. if they can move him, think they will.

tatar, nyquist and sammy... only babcock knows. almost everyone on this forum wants tatar and nyquist on the roster. bc people think they will help the team over lots of guys on roster but we'll see. babcock is what he is, in good and bad.

babcock always talks about helm as third line c but he is question mark after missing so much time. but he most likely will be on the roster when/if he gets healthy. babcock loves him. that means you get to play.

I have a feeling that if/when Helm comes back. Glendenning stays in.
Curious to see if they just waive Eaves. He's due back soon. Toots is probably gone and Tatar will continue to sit.

 

[BF3]

Well I thought we would lose to the Bruins if the lines stayed the same and we won, so what the hell do I know.

Surprised Babcock isn't playing Tatar and resting one of the vets on a back-to-back. Really seems like an obvious move.

He may be. Lines have not been announced; those are based on yesterday's lines.

Columbus day again????

Does Columbus, Ohio celebrate "Us Day"?

 

[Macoun]

I don't understand why we use Abby on the right and Franzen on the left. I've always felt Franzen was better on the right. He shot is so much better on his off wing.

 

[aar000n]

Does Columbus, Ohio celebrate "Us Day"?

Deep. 5-1 wings.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Sounds like Monster will be back in the net as Howard is listed as doubtful. Go Wings 3-1 Wings Dats Weiss and Zets with the goals Gaborik for Columbus.

 

[Chance on Chance]

Howard out for tonight

Do you guys see Glendening and Tootoo as regulars going forward? And what role do you see for Samuelsson, Tatar, Nyquist, and Helm?

I really like Tootoo as a 4th liner. Lots of energy and just hustles like crazy but I think his contract is a little big for that role so I imagine if they can move him they will.

Glendenning looks okay, all depends if Babcock gets a chubby for him, then he stays. He's not going to set the world on fire but he's serviceable.

I have no idea why we sit Tatar and Nyquist and play less capable people- apparently Babs didn't get the aforementioned chubby for them

Sammy is useless IMHO and I really don't believe Helmer is coming back until I actually see it. One of my favorite wings but I've started to lose hope

Sammy is way more useful than Cleary IMHO. Glendenning is an AHL'er with an NHL heart and will. Toots is needed.
