Warm-Up:
The Wings are coming off a painful loss to the Dogs over Phoenix and a not so stellar road trip.
Just like the last few games, tonight is the last match up between two teams. The Kings of Los Angeles will take on our beloved Wings at Joe Louis. The Wings haven't been hot lately, and their record at home is nothing to really brag about.
We've seen it before, and we're seeing it again. The Wings aren't playing their best hockey, but that just makes me think they're taking things a little easy and resting up for the play-offs.
I will say I am quite excited to watch this game tonight, especially since my room mates are all about poking fun at the Kings and "King Cobra" himself, Johnathan Quick.
And lets not forget, the last time these two teams met, the Wings dominated until the last few minutes of the third when they decided they were done playing. The Wings won the game 7-4.
Injuries/Scratches:
Brian Rafalski still out with back problems, Eaves still out with a groin injury. Both have been skating at practice though.
Christopher J. Osgood should be back on the bench or in between the pipes next week. (hopefully)
Drew Miller is scratched for tonight's game.
Other Notes:
There was a video posted on the Wings website yesterday of Justin Abdelkader reading "The Little Engine That Could" to a bunch of fourth graders. It was... AWKWARD.
