Is this still a rivalry? I sure hope so. Dare I ask for predictions? Will there be blood? There's no McCarty, no Lemeuix, no Foote....nobody who made this a top sports rivalry.

My Prediction:

Red Wings - 6
Colorado - 5


Fraser's prediction:

Red Wings -0
Colorado - 73

Denny's prediction:

Red Wings - 3
Mini Ditka - 100

Red Wings 3
Stan Mikita 150

6-4 wings



And this dosnt count as a rivalry anymore.

4-2 Colorado

Im going to be right one of these days or my name isnt emmanuel lewis

Yes, yes....however, today is certainly not that day. Great game, great result.

So now that The Wings have mowed down Nashville, Philly, New York and Colorado....are they good enough for Fraser?

7 more games against the Predz could decide that.


I'll tell you what, Fraser....if The Wings win the majority of the games against the Predz....and there are no major injuries to either team....then you have to throw 'em some well deserved props. If The Wings drop more than 4 games....then I'll admit that they have lost a step.

Deal?

Nah
i'll admit now that they are a hell of a team...regular season team
i just dont think they have the stoppers needed to make a run and their young Dmen are playing over their heads

that being said datSICK has to be one of the smoothest players with the puck i've ever seen
he doesnt even look like he's trying

the predators are in a huge slump but that game last night was nice
they needed to thump a shit team like CBJ to get back on track
once they get Legwand back in the lineup
and walker isnt 100% yet
and maybe if they can get 1 more centermen they'll be set

let the Rivalry begin

I actually caught the 2nd and 3rd. (pats self on back)

Great fucking game. The Wings proved why they're the shit. They moved
that puck like a motherfucker. Smooth as hell. Colorado proved that they're
good but they're still not the Red Wings no matter how hard they try to be.

Good win for the home team.

(said so on his CD)

that was awsome. I was at a b-day party for a cousin and only saw the last 15 minutes of the 3rd period. They fought off a ton of shorthanded situations to hold on.

Why were those stupid pennsylvania teams on the national stage though over Detroit and Colorado? the Penguins suck this year. It's just because Crosby is on that team.

Thats the NHL trying to market certain players......which they need to do

fans need to identify with players to get back into the game

Yeah. I noticed a sid. corsby commerical on TV the other day. Pretty good one too.

He's pretty much the only one getting any national pub
when there are so many others they could use

they should be marketing Datsyuk and Zetterberg. They are turning into very complete players.

Datsyuk for sure because he scores some very pretty goals

zetterberg is more of a worker

if only datsyuk's personality was more open some people might identify with him

Or if his name was "Jones" and not "Datsyuk".

People are having a hard enough time with "Ovechkin".

no people are really starting to come around on ovechkin
he speaks the language well and he's an exceptional player

the more they show of him the better
