    The Stars have been on the good end of a lot of missed calls or blown calls over the years. Not quite sure how they get so many their way.

    Lilja is a good D-man. We just didn't have the room. The one that still irks me is Leino. That guy gets like 3pts in 42 games with the Wings, gets traded to Philly and becomes a superstar there. WTF?!?!

    Traded to Philly is the key . . . when you're playing for a shitty team it's easier to stand out.

    “The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.” -- Author Unknown

    you got me there too. even the commentators were saying it as it happens. I counted three. its one thing that we didnt play good hockey for 60 mins. but if you're playing 5 on 7 with the refs and the opposing team, you're gonna lose.

    I've heard more whining from Ducks fans about blown calls than anyone else. Come on guys . . .

    A quick google search of "stars redwings blown call" nets you about a dozen different REALLY bad calls that dallas has benefited from. A couple good goals getting called back, non-goals being allowed, and just really bad calls that have led to goals. When we play Dallas, I pull out the tinfoil hat.

    That game the Wings had against the Blues was hilarious! Halak scoring on himself will definitely be up there with the Toskala videos LOL

    I haven't been able to see much of this seasons games. I need to get caught up on the ranks.

    I had to watch that a few times. I laughed at it, but truthfully if you asked Halak to repeat it, it would take hundreds of tries to get that again. When you watch the slow motion replay the puck was just at the right spot with him twisting his arm at just the right moment to double tap the puck. I will also say that nhl.com's list of wacky goals they put up with Halak's were great. I dunno bout you, but scoring two separate goals using my face just doesn't seem to be the best way to earn your points.

    Also - Go Cleary go! 8 goals in 6 games.

    Bringing this one back up since we're getting into the slog of the season now.

    Whether you're a Wings fan or not, you have to give credit where credit is due, and it's about time someone did a piece on Lidstrom. I'm pretty tired of Crosby/Ovechkin getting shoved down my throat every time I want to read some hockey news, and there are so many other talented players out there that deserve to get the spotlight every once in a while.

    I hate the Wings because they are the MOST dominating team in ANY SPORT.
