Edmonton @ Detroit

Warm-Up:

It's chicken wings and Red Wings night here at the lovely Hockeytown Rundown household!

Uh-oh. The newest hockey prodigy, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, or as I like to call him, Chicken Nugget - Hopkins and the Oilers make their way into the Joe tonight. Chicken Nugget has been turning a lot of heads and impressing a lot in the hockey world. It seems like every time I turn on Hockey Night in Canada a new broadcaster is displaying his boner for this kid. It's kinda gross. And disturbing.

Anyways,
Unlike years past, the Oilers have started off pretty well and are quickly becoming a team to watch. No one saw that coming. Goaltender Nikolai Khabibulin has been playing VERY well (insert drunk joke here) and MIGHT pose a challenge for our lovely Wings.

Khabibulin blows. 10 points to those of you who get that reference...


Injuries/Scratches:

Todd Bertuzzi - ill
Henrik Zetterberg - has what some call a "middle body injury" whatever that means... he's a game time decision.

Mike Commodore is your scratch.

Other Notes-

Happy 11-11-11. Danny Cleary should score today. Just sayin...

Also, Happy Veterans Day and thank you to all of our service men and women for all that they do. I'm looking at you Jon Cugini!
