Red Wings to face Colorado in Stadium Series Game - Feb 26, 2016

[Lil Sebastian Cossa]

I wanna punch Draper in the face for making poor Claude feel sad. When I got hit in the face nobody noticed boohoo!
- Adam "*********" Foote

I forgot how bad that was. Holy ****, we wanted Weber suspended for a couple games for less than that on Zetterberg.

But Adam shouldn't *****, he got that because he was trying to ride Kozlov into the boards. Claude just crosschecked Draper into next week from behind.

Looong time Wings fan who hasn't followed them much (at least in the regular season) since Lidstrom's retirement, but I gotta say I'm excited about this alumni game.

 

[Hadoop]

Where is Ossie? Does he really like commentating so much he wont play!?

He's unavailable due to off-season surgery http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/2016/02/chris_chelios_igor_larionov_am.html

Yesterday i went out of my hotel, and i saw Nicklas Lidstrom coming right in with his wife and children.
So i went back in, and talked to him, also asked if there were more players coming in.

Below is the result

Nice ones.

You look like Homer with glasses.

 

[Cursed Lemon]

A shame they couldn't get Vernon or Sergei, but I'm quite happy with the lineups regardless.

You should have told St. Nick to come back for the playoffs..

Wow you're right. I bet Lids came out and was like "HOMER! OLD FRIEND!"

 

[DeYarmond Edison]

Is the alumni game being televised?

FSD I believe.

 

[Ilves Tampere]

Puck drops just after 7:00pm ET on FSD and the NHL Network.

How was Homer's English? Gotta imagine being away from the States for awhile has all but destroyed any resemblance of the English language he had somewhat of a grasp on.

Doesn't Homer still live at Detroit?

I remember Lidström always visits on his basement.

I thought he moved back to Sweden after he retired. Did a commercial in Sweden a couple years back.

I think he comes home during the summer.
He hasn't left Detroit yet I believe.

I thought he took American citizenship?

Anyway, roll back the years with this classic. So much to enjoy. Seeing Yzerman before his body broke down carrying the puck end to end

 

[JMeiser919]

Anywhere to watch the game besides FSD and NHL network? Recently moved to Cali and don't have NHL network and it doesn't look like NHL.TV has this one

I'm flying out tonight for the game tomorrow. Man do I miss that style of hockey. I am young'ish at 30, and the amount the games changed is baffling. I love the Red Wings, but miss mid/late 90's hockey. The way it was played (and the Stanley cups we won).

 

[Kanenenights]

Homer was good and funny in english
Lidstrom was nice
Darren was the most spontanious
Kris was in a rush but stopped by for a picture

 

[Henkka]

So did all this happen in that Game6 at 1996?

- Kozlov did hit Foote?
- Lemieux sucker-punched Kozlov?
- Lemieux hit Draper on the boards

 

[Red Stanley]

Lol the rivalry footage they showed was Wings starting fights, Avs scoring goals and Roy making saves. Fair and balanced representation of what actually happened.

in case anyone doesn't know, there's an alumni gdt on the main board

I'm in the same boat, I'll let you know.

It's actually kinda criminal that we can't use NHL.tv tbh.
