The Red Wings will be without Henrik Zetterberg for tonight's matchup with the Vancouver Canucks.

Zetterberg left Wednesday's practice early because of a groin injury and was not present for Thursday's morning skate.

Darren Helm has been called up from the Grand Rapids Griffins to fill the hole in the Red Wings' lineup.

It's sad to see Zata go (if I spelled 'Zata' right? :P) but I'm thrilled Helm's making the trip up <3

Stupid clogging class ): Oh why, oh why couldn't the game have been LAST night?!?!?! >:o

I'll also be missing chunks of the game with a 7:30 soccer game to go to. I'll catch up on the DVR I'm sure but it'll be quieter in here. I'll post any last-minute news before I leave.

I was hoping the game was tomorrow night. Oh well. But I am watching.

[Britishwingsfan]

And Vancouver score. Osgood fooled by the block then the bounce off the backboards.

[Britishwingsfan]

Lots of pressure by the wings, a couple of good chances and a powerplay coming up.

[Britishwingsfan]

Oh, that's in the net. 1-1, definitely. Deflected by Holmstrom. He's on fire. And it's confirmed. Yes!

[Britishwingsfan]

But Rafalski's still penalised, the time's not been taken off.

[Britishwingsfan]

Oh, the time has actually been wiped off. And the stadium announcer's saying that Datsyuk scored, but Holmstrom definitely touched it.

[Britishwingsfan]

But the Canucks are back in front. Another deflection.

[Britishwingsfan]

And a penalty kill coming up. Hooking by Filppula.

[Britishwingsfan]

And that's the end of the period. A lot of room for improvement to say the least.

[Mathieu_Datsyuk132351]

Impeccable timing on my part.

I sat down and they dropped the puck.

Sad to see they're down by one. =/

[Mathieu_Datsyuk132351]

Rafalski...SCORES!

[Britishwingsfan]

Not any more. Rafalski ties it up!

[Mathieu_Datsyuk132351]

Most amazing goal this season, I think.

I was almost jumping out out of my seat!

Go Cleary <3

[Britishwingsfan]

And Cleary scores straight from the penalty box. The wings lead for the first time in the game.

[YzerFan19]

Ozzie with two huge stops after the Cleary goal.

Missed the first period and caught up until right before Cleary's goal on the radio, sounds like the Wings haven't been getting a lot of good chances.

[Britishwingsfan]

What a save. It was like the puck was laser-guided to his glove.

[YzerFan19]

Fourth line looking damned good right there. I can't believe Helm isn't even really supposed to be here.
