Where "70 Goals" Happens

SAN JOSE SHARKS @ DETROIT RED WINGS

7:30 -- Joe Louis Arena

Sharks: 11-4-1, 2nd in Western Conference | Wings: 6-4-3, 10th in Western Conference
______________________________________________________________


The Sharks are on the 2nd half of a back-to-back, which means that if the Wings don't win, Mike Babcock should be fired.

"The Sharks recently released 20 questions with Scott Nichol, asked by television color guy Drew Remenda, which has some interesting answers....

...Drew: Team you hate playing against?
Scott: Detroit.
Drew: Player you hate playing against?
Scott: All of Detroit."

If this doesn't make you crack a smile at least then you're probably at the wrong blog.



Additional info: the name of the guy who made the video is Bleeding Beaver. Swear to God.

Ansar Khan says that Rafalski is likely to play, Ericsson is still iffy, and Ozzie will get the start again.

And for the 850th time, I had to double check if it was "Khan" or "Kahn". I think I'm just going to start referring to him as "Steve".

When they just showed Ryan Clowe's face between "Where" and "Happens", did anybody else think that the whole phrase was "Where shit happens"?

Also, are we positive that Marleau ist't Eugene Levy's son? I hear Jim Henson once told him to dial back the eyebrows a bit because that shit's just not believable.

@Fox --

I get an alert whenever somebody leaves a comment. When your name showed up, I was sure that it was about the burnt orange on the "Sharks".....

Good if we get Rafalski back...The title of this post has me laughing. Thanks for getting my day off to a good start. I'll be watching late via DVR tonight.

This all goes back to his days as a Predaturd. It's a rule here that the Red Wings are public enemy #1 here because they're evil. Even though it's people like me who show up for all the games the Wings play in that God forsaken city, people who are the reason Nashville even has a team.

Oh, and by the way, how the hell do you cover up Morgan Freeman's face in that spoof poster? You just can't do it. Tim Robbins, ok. But not Morgan. If you ask me, FAIL.

All I can do about the burnt orange is hang my head in shame (if you are 22nd in line, chances are good "red and white" has already been taken as a color combo, so cut my guys some slack).

Personally, I think ditching the silver-grey for orange is a ploy to take the heat off of the "me-too" black thirds; now they can say "whaddaya want, an orange jersey instead?" Bah.

Speaking of bah, being gainfully employed, I will see exaclty none of tonight's game -- it'll have to go better than last year's visit though, right?
