This year I won't be able to go to both Wings games in Phoenix, as I'm sharing one trip with the GF to let her go see the Penguins (how could ANYONE like that that anyways???). I suppose it's not so bad, though. Each game I've gone to has had as many or more Wings fans than Coyotes fans in their arena. :)

HAhaha, hell yeah man! Red Wings to the cup!

I'm just pissed that I probably won't be able to make the Wings games in Dallas this year as they're during the week. Sucks that hockey is either a 4.5 hour drive or a 3 hour flight for me . . . :(

less than 12 hours before the preseason puck drop! :D

Hope you guys start your new building the same way you did your original building (losing). :p

My GF is a huge Pens fan. I have made sure to tell her that if it were ANY other team I might feel otherwise, but it's the Wings. Besides, I hate Crosby and enjoy seeing anything that can steal some of his thunder. :D

I've got two weekend games I'll be able to get to. My boss is cool with me and lets me flex my schedule around to get out early for the games (went to game 2 of the Wings/Coyotes series last season). Nothing quite like a Wings game. It seems every team brings their A games when the Winged Wheel is in town. :)

i think its because visually it looks like whatever team is against the wings look like they are against mama russia :P :D

Nice, that works out well.

I could just take some PTO and go to the game . . . going to have to see how bad my hockey addiction gets by that time. At least I've found the ONE hockey bar in Houston, the Maple Leaf. Playoffs 09 the whole bar was wall to wall wings fans. One lone ducks fan during that series, we almost felt sorry for her being a lone ranger haha. I love hockey season.

...yep. This game is a lost cause. I suppose I should have figured as much since the Pens brought out their stars and Detroit brought out their tryout-group. I would have hoped Osgood would have decided he could stop a puck again. I guess he's trying to be the next Luongo.

saw the score during our 2nd intermission. :D
