Wings leaving it late again. Pull to within 3-2 but only 1:40 to go.

In case anyone cares, the most points by a Poland-born NHLer is Mariusz Czerkawski with 435 🙂

Caps regain the lead. The East's #1,2,4,5,6,7 and 8 teams have all won tonight.

For real this time!

Kane offside?

Kane the record breaker!

Habs, Sabres and Bruins have all jumped out to 2-goal 1st period leads and the Wings game hasn't even started yet.

Who the hell is Sheldon Dries? I had read earlier on Twitter a flu bug was going around the Wings. Update: wait, Sheldon Dries played 63 games for the Canucks a few years ago but I’ve never heard this name in my life? Am I just sleepwalking though life?

Two legends going "neck and neck" from 4:15 to 4:50

There was an old line from Larry King or someone that went something like this: "There are 20,000 hockey fans in New York City and 18,000 of them go to MSG several times a year to watch the Rangers".

Wings lose. Habs, Sabres and Bruins all win so all are now just 4 points behind the Wings. Panthers lose in regulation so the Wings still have a 10-pt playoff lead. Leafs lose 7-4 to Buffalo to wrap up a 0-4-1 homestand which included four 3-goal losses.

ENG should ice it for LA. wings had a full minute of chances before that.

Wings waking up. 2-1 with 2:15 to go. Too little too late?

2-0

Wings look flat. Including a dismal powerplay to end the period. 1-0 Kings after 2.

Back to back penalty kills required. 2 minutes down, 2 minutes to go.

Wings come out flying the first 30 seconds against the Kings

If he time travels back to 1984 he's going to hear it from me. Who could trust the team being in the hands or skates of a kid named Why-zerman with pretty boy hair.

F the Memphis Grizzles.

Quinn Hughes? Small potatoes.

Nor were the Canucks an unstoppable juggernaut with Hughes (plus EP+Boeser+Hronek)

I wouldn't have included Edvinsson in a deal. I know the story is that a potential Wings-Canucks deal broke down over Edvinsson, but you'd have to think there are other options that would have been seriously considered by both sides. For example, what about MBN, Carter Bear and this year's 1st? I would have done that and I think the Canucks could sell that to their fans. Or Kasper, Bear and next year's first. Or Bear, this year's 1st and next year's 1st. Basically, I feel Hughes is worth three 1sts if you think (even if you don't know 100%) you can re-sign him and I think the Wings could have. Wanting to play with his brothers is a bit overblown. Only NJ even if you could now in the same conference with him at least? Only NJ even if your new team is in the same state where you went to school? Only NJ even if the Wings win playoff rounds the next two seasons while the Devils miss the playoffs? Only NJ even if you enjoy seeing your brothers at Thanksgiving and Christmas but would get under each other's skin if you see them day in day out?
