Valtteri Filppula is still questionable for Thursday's series-opening game against Dallas. He's Detroit's only injury.

Dallas looks to be without Phillipe Boucher and Stu Barnes.

More will be known after the morning skates.

I'll be at the game so I probably won't be checking in on the game thread that much.

Valtteri Filppula is in for tonight's game. This means that the Red Wings will have no lineup changes from Game Four against Colorado.

From Khan:

"I felt good,'' Filppula said. "We played a lot this season, so missing a couple of days I don't think is going to be a big deal.''

St. James:

"I have no problems at all today," he said. "I thought I felt good yesterday, but today I felt even better."

Swing by and pick me up on your way there.

Yay! I even wore my Filppula jersey today hoping it would say he's in for tonight!

I heard that Kirk Maltby would've played if Dr. Fil didn't make it, is Maltby going to play soon? I pray not.

So this is still a forum for discussing real hockey games then?
Finally the withdrawal can end. It was starting to feel like it never would.

[YzerFan19]

Fil takes pregame skate. So do Malts, Lebda and Lilja.

Come on Rafalski!

Why did the commentators say that it was a cheap call on Ott he punched Holmstrom 3 times in the jaw...it's dirty he got what he deserved and ralf made him pay. Good start!

[fitch.1918]

YESSSSSSSSSS

[fitch.1918]

how do you say it clark Johan mutha F@c!N Franzen!

[fitch.1918]

One more before the end of the period would be huge

[Britishwingsfan]

Franzen....just too good for words.

[YzerFan19]

I still hate that they don't show penalty replays at the Joe.

This crowd is nuts. Not as loud as against SJ last year but they're all over Turco.

Dallas with 4 shots in the first. Even w/ two PP. Excellent.

[Britishwingsfan]

Get in Holmstrom! A bit dodgy though, but makes up for all those other times.

[Britishwingsfan]

The Stars players look knackered. Time to end this.

[Britishwingsfan]

Fippula! 4-0, and there must be more to come?

[Britishwingsfan]

Dallas seem to have been spurred on by conceding that goal.

[Britishwingsfan]

Urgh.

[Britishwingsfan]

Great save by Turco.

[YzerFan19]

Ozzie should've had the rebound on that goal. Oh well.

Stars fan just yelled "Three more!" I replied "Three more wins!"

Fans in this section are remarkably unconcerned about spilling their beer.
