The Detroit Red Wings (4-2-and-0) face a red-hot Toronto Maple Leafs team this evening (5-and-1; tonight's game airs on Fox Sports Detroit Plus/Sportsnet One/TVA Sports/WWJ), and as far as Leaf Land is concerned, Toronto's 2-0 win over the Washington Capitals last night is how the playoff series between the teams should have ended.

I watched some of the Toronto vs Montreal game a few days back. They're a fun team to watch and have some pretty high skill. Toronto is a perfect team for a guy like Babcock to coach. Looks like Howard will start. DK skated in practice. I'm guessing its a pain thing, probably a deep bone bruise and he would play if he could block out the pain. Mantha-Z-Nyquil Tatar-Larkin-AbbyNormal Helm-Nielsen-Frk'n A No Goal-Glendening-Witkowski Ericsson-Daley (I hate this pairing) Kronwall-Green XO-Jensen Howard starts. We needs win tonight...I'll take it any we can get it but would love an easy regulation win...yeah right

For some reason i don't have much expectation for tonight's game. This team can score goals...and we are a tunorver machine.
If we can tighten up our defense we might have a shot, but if we play like we did against the Bolts (defensively) i smell a very long evening.....

I don't have much hope for any of the games any more. What's with this infatuation with Abby? By the team and the media?
Seein' too much No Goals, Boom Boom and the former road runner on the ice. Hard to get excited.
And AA looking for work in Switzerland or something? It's not about the money, he just doesn't want to play here.
Pierre, what happened to the game we wee supposed to see Friday?

4 goals on 6 shots. Toronto cab rope-a-dope it the rest of the night and finish with maybe 8 shots and still probably beat us. Jeebers ....

Since you don't have much hope for any game why should we bother going friday ? Can't make it for friday and sunday...got some things to deal with here in Montreal...

Pierre, I don't care about the games as much as I used to. Would have been fun to see you Friday, though, my friend ...

We had a decent comeback until the power play goal made it 5-3. It wasn’t our night (

I am back and wonder why? Pay good money for Center Ice and fast forward during too much of the game. Hennme here but changed name to Arline. Survived Irma here in Florida, but may not survive another year with this coach and gm. Z is looking good. Some youngsters are good, but game sucks right now, rules suck right now, and officials suck right now.
On the other hand Hi everyone.
