Wings/Hawks game 5 tonight. Well both teams are without key players. This is where the Wings depth will come in handy.

Hopefully we can polish off the Hawks tonight for some much needed rest to get healthy. Wish we knew the severity if Lindstrom's injury. But just the fact that he is not playing says a lot.

Congrats on a great 'Canes season, Joe. They seemed to be able to find a way all season, I just think Malkin and Crosby are leading a juggernaut right now.

Lidstrom not playing means he is hurt, 'cause Nik just doesn't miss games.

Missing Havlat hurts the Hawks chances, but Khabibulin is the key. I think the Hawks will put forth a much better effort than they did Sunday, but if Huet lets in a couple soft goals, that might deflate the kids faster than a 80 year old after the Viagra wears off. I would love to see the Hawks win one more for pride, but I know the Wings are deeper, smarter, just more experienced. Regardless, I am really proud of what the Hawks have accomplished this year, and think they will be even better next year if they get a goalie who can compete after Nikolai leaves.

That being said:

Go Hawks!

I think that the kids are already deflated after the thumping they took sunday...Go Wings!!

Re: NHL '08- '09 Thread
 

0-0 after 1 period.

No Ericsson really hurts, already without Lidstrom on Defense. Gonna be a lot of minutes for Rafalski, Staurt and Kronwall! Oh well no one is gonna feel sorry for us.

Let's Go Red Wings!!

The Hawks goalie is going to have a hell of a night if he ends up facing 60 shots. A lot of time spent on their end thus far. :hm

Re: NHL '08- '09 Thread
 

Still no score after 2 periods.
