[odualum01]

I love it. Combining Hockey in one of the most recognized venues in all of North America, genius. I can't wait!

[ny13isles39]

you cant beat toews and kane together, their filthy

[DetIzRed]

same with Dats and Hank

[italianstalion33]

Dats and Hank > Pat and Johnny...

Toews is much improved defensively and physically, but he can't buy a goal, where as Kane is still a pibsqueak, but scores in bunches...

Pat and Hank are both the complete package.

Plus the Euro Twins have a few years on the Kiddy Hawks... the kids gotta learn somehow... probably by losing to the Wings alot... ;D

[boxcarracer4]

DOC EMERICK is THEE bomb he announced 1 of da goals 4 the Red Wings

[irvpoker2007]

bowman left detroit to work with his son in chicago and got front office blessing's fron the redwings.chicago looks really good for the coming years but as much as love the redwings chicago's gotta prove something to me other than offseason moves.

[Zyx444]

yeah in fact, in 2006, my buddy and I established what we now call our annual "Trip With the Tribe from Chicago" Each season, we go somewhere different to watch the Hawks play. We have been to Columbus, St. Louis, and most recently, Anaheim, and this year, we are headed to Minnesota. We have spent idk how much money but a lot for all those travel sites and its WELL worth it (even though the Hawks are 0-3 in those games we've been to) but we have got on TV back here in Chicago each time we went

[italianstalion33]

sounds fun.

[irvpoker2007]

hey you should come up to canada and represent chicago ,garenteed you'll be on all canadian sports channells p.s. go wings lol

[Zyx444]

yeah true im no fair weather fan, im with the Hawks through thick and thin. But the Hawks did prove this last season they are up for the challenge. They didnt miss the playoffs because it was their fault, they did their part in winning the games they needed to win and getting points out of the games they needed to get points out of, had St. Louis beat Nashville one of those last games of the season, we probably would have gotten in. But thats what u get when you need help from shitty teams.

[italianstalion33]

i hope for you that the Hawks are in control of their own destiny. i hate to see non avs or sens teams get knocked out even though they didnt play. I remember the first year I watched Wings hockey was 1996. I was 5 and i remember i always said that Stevie Y was the Michael Jordan of hockey(I was wrong, but I only watched Wings hockey, Bulls basketball and Cubs baseball) Its nice to know that lots of hockey fans have alot passion. i respect neone who sticks with their team thru thick and thin...

[Zyx444]

we are irrelevant?!?! ok, what about Adam Burish? 136th overall pick and Dustin Byfuglien, a 9th round pick, thats not good scouting? Again, you know we are going to be a team that is going to win and win consistently for years to come! We even lured your own "hero" of a coach in Scotty Bowman into OUR front office. He even knows where the better place to be is now...CHICAGO!

[italianstalion33]

ya, burish and byfuglien are as good as datsyuk and zetterberg!(sarcasm) and bowman knows what pittsburh fans dont, in the nhl, money talks. its a business. chelios walked from the hawks, but who cares... its just business. And ya, im not ignorant, the blackhawks are far improved... but they havent proven theyre up for the western confrence challenge... year after year they have underachieved, havlats always hurt and their defence is inconsistent. detroits best for hockey right now... REPEAT!

[italianstalion33]

but on a lighter note...

at least were not ignorant fair weather fans like in pittsbugh!

[Zyx444]

Your team is getting old and our team is ready to blossom! Your reign as NHL's best is slowly starting to deteriorate and the Hawks will soon be the team to beat in the Central Division. Just like in the 70s and 80s! You know it as well as I do...DETROIT SUCKS!! LETS GO HAWKS!

[italianstalion33]

And by soon do you mean 20-30 years??? The Red Wings franchise is undoubtably the greatest in the sport in terms of front office and scouting. Datsyuk - 7th round pick. Zetterberg - 8th round pick. I may be a Chicago boy, but not even I can bare to watch the joke on ice! Red Wings kick ass, Blackhawks are irrelevent!

[Zyx444]

We beat this team 5 out of 8 times last season, why will this season be different?! Hawks beat Detroit again! Campbell, Huet, Toews, Kane, to complement Lang, Havlat, Seabrook, Keith, Burish, and Sharp, The Cup is taking the road that leads right into the Windy City!!! =)

[italianstalion33]

why in the hell does 5 of 8 matter if u win 16 games in the playoffs? the wings win when it counts, in the playoffs, and they know how to get there.... 16 years in a row! and even though were an old team, weve got young guys too! Hudler, Helm, Howard, and role guys like Cleary, Maltby, Holmstrom! The bus the Cup is on is stranded in Detroit, and cant afford gas money!

[Zyx444]

This is going to be yet another Blackhawks victory to add to their already amazing record! We will be in 1st in the central divison after this game, it ends in a 5-4 Chicago overtime victory on a Kane and Toews 2 on 1 break against Lidstrom, Toews roofs it right over Osgood who has no chance! Campbell, Huet, Kane, Toews, ITS not just FUN, its GREAT to be a Blackhawks Fan!!! =)

[italianstalion33]

This is going to be yet another great victory for the Red Wings. Wire to wire in first place, and a convicing 4-1 victory over the Blackhawks. Hossa, Zetterburg, Datsyuk, Osgood, Franzen, Lidstrom, Filppula, Rafalski, Conklin, Holmstrom, its not just fun to win, its also great to be a Red Wings fan!!! ;)

[billyvanhalen93]

Hey you forgot to mention the newest Red Wing Marian Hossa and Ty Conklin the backup goalie who has played in 2 previous Winter Classic Games with the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Edmonton Oilers. I'm just saying that you should add more to the video because Marian Hossa is a great player who would be great on the Datsyuk and Zetterberg line and Ty Conklin has Winter Classic experience and this will be his third.

[italianstalion33]

i dont have time to go thru every player on the team...

plus ive already made a hossa vid and a preview vid...

plus to be fair if i put in conk and hoss i would have to put in huet and sharp, then someone else says i miss someone... and the vid ends up being a half hr long!

thanx for the suggestion but i already thought about it...

[Foltz13]

im predicting a 4-2 wings win. wings will dominate most of the game and the blackhawks will score a late goal to bring it within 2 but the game will end in another detroit victory (what a schocker). man it's fun 2 be a wigns fan :)

[italianstalion33]

id be satisfied with a 2 goal win! ya i do love bein a wings fan!

thanx for subin!

[tekon1994]

i wish it wasn't on the day where all the good college football bowl games are on
