Two things:
(1) The first Zetterberg injury scare of the season has apparently come to an end.
Henrik Zetterberg will return to the lineup for tonight’s game against Blues, after missing two games with a sore groin. He will center a line with Johan Franzen and Mikael Samuelsson. Darren McCarty was activated from injured reserve but will not play tonight.
(2) I’ll be landing in Vegas at 2200 EST.
I’m pre-staging the live blog to kick off at game time. I’ll try and make it for the third period.

I have noticed an increase in the Navy ads on the boards around the rink… Maybe Chief got a bonus for it or something?

Nah, his avatar pretty much says it all.

Don’t you mean Hernia Zetterberg is returning to the lineup?
Posted by Nathan on 10/22/08 at 02:07 PM ET
He is back and we obviously need him. Thank you Lord!

Oh Chief, please don’t talk about Hank’s back. You’ll get me worried all over again.

Hawaii, California, Vegas! Am I too old to join the Navy?

Don’t forget Guam, Paul.
Oh, and Djibouti… now there’s a vacation paradise!

Oh, and Djibouti…
and wasn’t there a little jaunt earlier in the year that he could not tell us about…...unless he killed all 19 of us. New Zealand, if memory serves.

New Zealand, if memory serves.
Ah yes, when he visited Frodo and his other “elfin” friends.
Nice avatar Dub.
I hate to be the voice of unbridled optimism, but I don’t feel good about this game. Bluess are on a hot streak, we’re whipping out the (very capable) Conk, looking disoriented and have had a few days off after winning. Did we keep that momentum? Are Homer and Hossa going to continue? Will Meech play himself into the lineup so that we don’t have to worry about Lilja?
And I can’t live blog cause…well I’ll tell you later if all goes well. If not, I’m just ignoring you bitches.

If the Wings beat the Bitter Blues tonight, will Manny threaten to hang himself?
Posted by w2j2 on 10/22/08 at 05:16 PM ET
That is good news.
Does that Navy have an installation on Lake Mead or something?

LOL! You do know that there is indeed a Coast Guard outpost at a little town just outside of Laughlin, Nevada called Cal-Nev-Ari. Yes, a Coast Guard outpost.
Anyway, I don’t know anything about Chief being in town until I read this entry. As it is, I’ll make sure the sweet ladies of the night to look for a good-lookin’ feller with a big anchor.

Is the game streaming anywhere tonight?
Posted by Sdub from WA on 10/22/08 at 05:58 PM ET
Hank’s back, no puns intended.
Fired up to play against the bitter bitches and their fans…
B-e-e-r-r-u-n-s to commence shortly.

Best part about tonight on Center Ice is the option for home coverage…
Meaning I DO NOT have to listen to Bernie I’d like to choke Federko, he bugs me as bad as Bubba
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 10/22/08 at 07:01 PM ET
Ok folks. Nearly game time. I think I’ve found a feed, and FSN Detroit at that.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 10/22/08 at 07:02 PM ET
Anyone else seeing Ozzie’s stick in Ken’s interview with Hossa?

Go look at the pic on NHL.com “Fabulous Four”... Terrible Ted standing next to Burke. I’d pay to see Ted knuckle him for me….. just sayin’

Just once maybe that smug “I’m such an a@#hole” look would be gone for in instant…..
