I dislike Binnington but that was hilarious

Kane is practicing today

I recall going to a game and Nook was the only Tiger that did anything / got a hit (something along those lines)....very dark times.

They sent Watson down, so Kane should be back soon!

I'm not sure why people care about the hug on either side, but taking time out of your day to time it for some online discourse is absolutely hilarious

They always need more depth scoring for sure. At least DeBrincat is heating up a bit and Kane might come back after this road trip. For as much as I've said I didn't want them to re-sign Kane I miss him when he isn't on their power play. The Wings apparently have been sniffing around depth forwards for a trade so maybe they add some punch somehow.

Mazur and Danielson are still over a ppg at least I think it is a good thing they added the vets to the Griffins roster, it seemed like last season the team really suffered from not having that element. It certainly is a better team in front of Cossa which is what I was hoping for so he'd have a better chance for sustained success. Danielson not having to literally do everything for the Griffins should allow him to maybe focus on his offense a bit.

It seems like Raymond is finally feeling almost 100% after his injury, he looked really good against the Sharks from what I saw

I feel like he has looked off lately for sure

I guess there are worse things in the world than making a million bucks to play hockey in San Diego.

Maybe Kasper's first was a high stick but I think it was the right call to go with what was on the ice, I didn't think the replays were conclusive either way because of him slapping down his stick to make contact. To me if it could go either way you go with the call on the ice. I highly doubt the NHL has a conspiracy to make the Wings win a regular season game against a Western team in October.

My uniformed guess is not. I think Watson will just sit in the press box in case someone gets hurt on the roadtrip. I think if they planned on the callup being in the lineup it would have been Danielson instead of Watson (or Mazur if he wasn't hurt).

Auston Watson called up, probably for press box duties

Boooooooooooooooooo!

I honestly didn't consider an injury. Could explain the seemingly lackadaisical play but hopefully he just got sat in a game they weren't in a true danger of losing.

It gets really interesting if Postava is a real prospect for them. Only 23!

Went back and checked, looks like he got benched and didn't see the ice after this. It was Hamonic - Chiarot or Edvinsson - AlJo/Hamonic the rest of the way. Shout out for Todd for actual accountability!

Even though the Blues seem like an awful team right now it is always nice to win the first game of a road trip! Think the broadcast showed its the best ten game start for the Wings since 2010/11 which is cool.
