Just a reminder, the Red Wings' game tonight against the Calgary Flames has a 7:00 PM start, not the 7:30 PM we're all used to.

Detroit will be going with a similar lineup to what they used against Phoenix on Tuesday. Brett Lebda is back in on the blue line, replacing Chris Chelios.

Ty Conklin gets his second start in a row and coach Mike Babcock changes up his goalie rotation. Conklin's home winning streak will be tested tonight while Chris Osgood's superior record against the St. Louis Blues will be taken advantage of on Saturday.

Marian Hossa remains out, aiming for a Saturday return.

No last-minute updates but I'll be missing most of this one, I've got a 7:30 soccer game tonight. I'll catch up when I get back.

I like Jokinen, but not when he scores ):

1 - 0 Flames.

Wings on the Powerplay. Tiny scrum in front of the net.

Let's get a goal!

EUROTWINS <3

They had some good chances and finally scored!

Pretty sure that was Zetterberg's.

Oh man, Cleary is hurt. Went into the boards funny.

5:00 powerplay for boarding.

5 on 3 for two minutes.

_____

Another scrum in front of the net, another penalty...which won't start for another 30 seconds.

This game is odd.

HOLY CRAP! There are four Calgary players in the box! Franzen just got in a tiny fight and is now in the box, too. BUT FOUR CALGARY PLAYERS.

A typical Keenan-coached team....

[Mathieu_Datsyuk132351]

Haha, that's cute! + Thanks for giving me some company on here, since it's basically me running up my post count

And Samuelsson scores! 2 - 1 Wings.

Stupid clock change lag week, caught me out again, missed the first period.

[Britishwingsfan]

Lidstrom on the 4 on 3, looked pretty inevitable.

[Mathieu_Datsyuk132351]

Dr. Fil is still bedazzling

4 - 1 Wings.

And then the Langkow scores.

4 - 2.

[Britishwingsfan]

Zetterberg had half a chance on the wraparound, just couldn't quite do it.

I've got a photo somewhere of four or five Kings in the box. Hooray for thuggery.

At least that's how Ken Kal and Paul Woods implied the Flames were playing. I haven't seen any of it yet but I like the score.

I allowed fewer goals than Conklin, I'll try to pass my good karma on to him.

Spending too much time in the Wings' zone right now. Limiting shots but still too much risk being down there.

[YzerFan19]

And then a solid shift in the Calgary end. Nice.

[YzerFan19]

Wings without a shot 3/4 of the way through the third? Insane, but I'd rather they play solid D right now anyway.

[Mathieu_Datsyuk132351]

4 - 3 with 3 and a half minutes left :|

Yikeeeees.

[YzerFan19]

Aww damnit. Bounced off Draper right to the right spot for the Flames. Ugh.

[YzerFan19]

That was an awful goal. WTF, Conks?

[Mathieu_Datsyuk132351]

Damndamndamndamndamn.

Lawdy, lawdy, miracle time! I don't want overtime, as conceited as it is.
