I'll be there! I'll also let you know how it's going

Thats pretty awsome. You should go buy some Gorilla Glue for Hasek

I was thinking more along the lines of that industrial strength velcro that the army uses on tents! It would fit easily onto his blocker

Thankfully, Osgood's getting the start, so stapling Hasek's stick to his glove can wait until Wednesday.

Ugh, Osgood's gotta hold onto the rebound on that first goal. Looked like it might have handcuffed him a littlle bit, he seemed to change the way he was going to play it at the last second.

Franzen makes the big sacrifice and Draper capitalizes with the shorthanded goal!

I actually expected Draper to miss, he's had horrible luck on breakaways for years.

Tied after two, kind of ruins my plans to be able to crash early tonight. I gotta be back up in five hours! Finish this off, guys!

[YzerFan19]

Power play goal! Smart play by Lang to throw it on net with Cloutier cheating to the other side.

Wings hold off the last push by LA, good to see them get the win to kick off the road trip.

Now I'm going to sleep.

Well, several things to talk about:

1. First and foremost I have to get the cable to get the pictures out of my phone, I had a seat right behind the Wings penalty box, so I have some awesome close-ups of the guys. The official in the box even gave me a game-used puck despite the fact I was wearing my Wings jersey.

2. Something to be said for the fans in Cali, more than half of the people in my row had no clue what was going on. They were also rooting for some Wings that have since departed. One lady was wearing an Yzerman jersey and she asked how come he was not playing!

3. Kings Power Play SUCKED! Enough said.

4. I had a few issues with some of the calls that the refs made, it looked like they tried to make up for it later on by caling a few against the Kings. I will say that they made some garbage calls on both sides, but they even let some real obvious ones go! See the final minutes of play with that hook on Z. Z practically drug the guy down the ice with him.

5. Most of the Wings looked good, except for the minor error on Ozzie's part and D looked a little weak on some of his attempts.

6. All in all good game, great seats. Looking forward to the Ducks on Wed! Hoprfully I can get the pics out as well

That sounded like a good game! If Osgood just keeps his confidence up (not to much though) he'll be a smooth sailing guy. No comment on Hasek. I might be going to a game this November, not sure though. Overall, It sounded pretty good. Sadly, I didnt watch it. Went to sleep early.

Right now I'm wishing I had done that. Rough day
