Well I was wrong the Wings ended up pulling it out. Watched the first, and third period of the Avs game. A somewhat stressful game to watch, Patrick Kane was just flying by the Avs defense all night which was worrying me. In Overtime both the Avs and Blackhawks only got 1 shot off.

Ended in a 9 round shootout with the Avs lossing.  :'(
On the bright side we get a point for going into overtime.
Avs (2-1-1)

Avalanche beat the Bruins 4-3. Was a 2-0 game until the Avalanche blew it in the start of the 2nd period. Then the Avs rolled on to make it a 4-2 game and finished 4-3. I couldnt watch because im at school but I had been updating my phone alot.  :D

Avalanche move to 3-1-1...1 point behind Calgary! Play Toronto tommrow and feeling pretty confident about that game since they are 0-3-1  ;)

Well the Avs of course killed the Maple Leafs 4-1.  :)
Moving the Avs record to 4-1-1. Thankfully Calgary lost today (by the blue jackets  :D)moving Colorado into a tie fisrt.  :D

The wings got MURDERED by the Sabres. Im feeling very confident when the Avs play them that they will win.  ;)

Avalanche v.s. Montreal on Thursday but we should win with Montreal being 2-3.

:o  Yeah they did, I think they lost their groove, but then again, the year we won the Stanley cup we had a 7 game losing streak early in the season...so no worries yet.

Them Blue Jackets seemed to have found their groove  ;)

The Hawks are definitely a prospect, but the Wings aren't THAT old, remember we have Zetterburg for another twelve years, and with some good leadership we can mold a few strong rookies.  We'll see what happens.  Too early yet, and it's going to be a messed up season with the Olympics and all that.

I'm not predicting any Stanley Cup finalists yet, too early with too many rookies looking for their place on the ice, but I do see the Jackets and the Hawks going far, and the Avs seem to be holding their Division, and I think the Wings will pull through and at least make strong approach.   

If the Wings aren't showing any signs of strength by mid December I'll start worrying...until then, there is a lot of hockey to be played.  8-)
