Rangers are coming to Detroit...

I'm only hoping Lindros plays. I'm hoping this will be a good matchup. The Wings have been on the road the last couple of weeks and this will be there first game back at the Joe.

Predictions?

Ummm...Could you guys please take it easy on us tomorrow night? We could really use the points more than you could

It sounds Like Lindros is gonna be in the lineup, which is a good thing!

We are missing atleast one tough guy though, Purinton was suspended. And I think McCarthy might also be getting a suspension, all from the Islanders game.

My prediction is 6-3 Wings

Just heard that Lindros will definitly be playin tonight.

Also, the Rangers a mixing up the lines a bit...Hopefully it works.

Glad thats over with! Rangers played pretty good in the 1st, and 3rd periods....But the second they just blew.

Before this game I though the Flyers could take them in the playoffs, But I believe Ive changed my mind. Wings just looked too good.

DETROIT (AP) -- Theo Fleury's quest to just play hockey and leave his personal issues behind ran into another obstacle Wednesday night.

Oh Yea, and heres why Theo "The Man" Fleury went after Chelios...Just incase you didnt already know.
-----------------------------------------------------
During Detroit's 3-1 win over New York, the Rangers' forward got into a heated exchange of shoves and words with Detroit's Chris Chelios midway through the third period.

Fleury was so angered by what Chelios shouted at him that he said he's going to call the NHL to complain on Thursday.

``It was very, very personal,'' said Fleury, who declined to give specifics. ``There's no place in the game for that at all.''

I love fast paced games! Few teams are able to bring out the speed in the Wings, but it showed last night. Great game.

Man, what is up Fleury's butt? He was a maniac out there in the third. He's lucky he didn't take a penalty.

Considering the Wings outscored the Rangers in their last 3 games 20-3, it was an entertaining game. I can't wait till the next matchup next month. It's always exciting to play teams you only see once or twice a season.
