Jeremy Laura: McAvoy trying to appeal suspension, Wings-Bruins Pregame

Not buzzing from the opening face-off would spell doom vs BOS, whilst they've lost some shooters, they still have a potent offense....DET would be hard-pressed to play catch-up against them. Fast start, bombardment of the net (kindly referred to artillery preparation of the objective in my line of work.....) will be key to keeping BOS's G guessing where the next shot's coming from. Cause havoc, chaos around the net. Find a way to free up Larkin, Raymond, and The Cat....best way to do that is hammering shots from the 2, 3, & 4 lines. Needs to be relentless.

I would think, sooner or later, ARI is going to have to move. Residents don't wanna foot the bill for a truly grand arena, snow-birds just don't seem to flock to hockey there like they do in FLA, probably has to do with Won/Loss, but..... Utah is an interesting option. Not sure how much longer the 'Yotes can be carried by the NHL, the $$$ don't add up. I'd think other owners are pitching a royal fit having to bail them out all the time.....until they trade dead-weight contracts to the 'Yotes, then it's all Christmas cards n best friends.... Something needs to give. How demoralizing is it to have 5,000 seats that don't sell out?!?!? I'd be VERY hard-pressed to accept that trade......

The team has already had 2 or 3 stadiums. The new owner refused to work with Gila and the results have been bad for everyone. NHLPA also voiced unhappiness that the current setup is not helping w escrow situation. The league needed to step in with this owner. Not a good situation.

Husso.... great start.....

Boston will put up 8 tonight. Detroit has more passes directly to the stick blades of Boston players than they have shots. Of course the experts will blame Husso, but when you let a guy walk the slot without so much as a stick in the lane, there’s not many NHL forwards who won’t score.

2nd goal I'll give you... but it doesn't take an expert to know Husso should have had the first goal...... horrible goal...

Time to play Lyon.

Time to play Lyon.

Perron with a nice "fake" and then a GOAL!!!!!!!!

What a bunch of CRY BABIES!!!!!!!!!!

Big win tonight, Raymond was outstanding, Husso wasn't great and they still came away with the win in regulation. Happy with the effort tonight, just gotta figure out these first period crap starts.
