No but plenty friends there and we plan on visiting and catching a game. They have packages for the Stanley cup but i haven't seen any for any other playoff series. They have them for regular season also. Might just have to buy tix from a friend up there or GOD forbid eBay or stubhub.

David Clarkon, 3 games into his CBJ stint, is out 4 - 6 weeks with an obliques injury. You can't make this shite up anymore.

Detroit just did that slog and MTL is in the middle of it. Kind of fun to stay up for those games.

Doc and Eddie on the call for Wings/Rags. Abdelkader kick goal counts.

Looks like bergevin finally fricked up picking up 4th line bums at the trade deadline who have now messed up our chemistry to an extent.

Completely shitting the bed on this roadtrip as I feared.

Yep, the defense and carey cannot do it alone as i have said many times.

The PP is non existent. no excuses whatsoever. EVen the ducks announcer said we have had a great PP for decades yet now it it terrible.

Oh and DD, you cannot screen a goalie so let gally handle that on that line.

Petry? He looks like a joke. Might need to call pateryn back up. Might also be calling up bournival and thomas before long replacing these bums we traded for.

unbelievable.

That west coast swing is nasty. Friggin Ducks are leading the league in points, the Shark Tank is always kind of a snake pit even though San Jose are playoff chokers, oh and LAK is on fire. Then teams usually have a game or two around that -- Detroit also had Chicago, Dallas, and finished with Nashville. I think you guys will be fine, that's just a tough stretch.

I thought the Rags outplayed the Wings yesterday. Talbot was really good, I didn't even realize it wasn't Lundqvist for a while. Best sign for the Wings is that Howard seems to be rounding into form.

The PP is awful based on scheme not players. I wanted Phaneuf to be the point of the diamond, but they're so stagnant and don't move up high it doesn't allow for anything.

They may want to watch Team Canada in World Juniors to see a real PP.

I want to but I can't afford to call or text Canada I'm not an OT balla nor do I have a consulting contract in place.

Sad part is you know it is the issue also. When's the last time you have seen them cycle in the PP?

The Powerplay sucks.

I'm willing to try any combination of the 20 guys we dress.

Hell, get Tokarski a pair of skates and a regular stick and see if he can help.

That's the lengths I'm willing to go.

Yet you chastised me when I was trying to warn you how bad the unit was around Christmas time.

The bad part is Parenteau would have fixed it long ago.

hey now enough of that crap. We are habs brethren. We cheer together and bitch together but not at one another.

I think all 3 of us have come to the conclusion if we do not get a PP going we are dead in the water come playoff time. My problem is they have had 60 plus games.....yet still cannot get it right.....We have 3 bastards(not me btw) who have a cannon from the point yet we cannot do shite down low on screens or putting back rebounds. We cannot cycle down low either to save our life. CMT better find something that works and I mean FAST.

I'm with sms. We need to move to a different style of attack on the PP. Pernell needs to be taking more shots.

Maybe a behind the net setup with Max. Something.

It seems like all we do is go with the 2 point men and 2 guys low. Mix it up.

Preds are really struggling right now... huge 3rd period coming up, down 2-1 to the islanders at home... to avoid fourth straight loss.
