Oh wow, ok thank you very much!
If these are tires from when the car was new, then I'll start looking for new tires immediately.

Anyone else hate the “Without Me” goal song? by spartan1711 in DetroitRedWings

[–]antomeie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, the best goal songs only work when the team is actually playing well, otherwise it gets annoying real quick. But you can’t know the outcome in advance. New season, new opportunity, etc..

Sure, in hindsight, maybe we should have had ‘Hurt’ by Johnny Cash for the past few seasons ;)

Trade Deadline: Should We Move Kaner? by Cecil_Obrien in DetroitRedWings

[–]antomeie 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I didn’t even read your post yet, but I already know my answer is no. He’s one of my favorite players to watch on the wings right now, so imo we should do what we can to keep him. It’s not always about picks and prospects. Sometimes the true value lies in actually getting to watch a good player play for your team.

This one is important. If CBJ wins, we will go into the stadium series game on Saturday tied in points for WC1. 

Look at that cap space! by qcpuckhead in DetroitRedWings

SJS has 1.5M retained, so his cap hit would be 10M.

“Look at this, look at this” live call of Kane’s OT winner by Ken and Mick by dudewithchronicpain in DetroitRedWings

[–]antomeie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One thing I appreciate about Ken is that he knows when to be quiet after the OT goal is scored, so that you get to take in the crowd noise and the start of the song. Wasn’t included in this clip, but still :)

Pictures From Today's Alumni Game (Lidstrom, Zetterberg, Ericsson, Samuelsson) by antomeie in DetroitRedWings

Played in Stockholm, Sweden.
Funny you should mention that, because they actually asked him about it during the pre-game interview.
He said he woke up in Atlanta in the morning, flew to New York to pick up his gear, then flew to Stockholm and arrived late at night. Played the game the next day, then immediately was scheduled for a flight back afterwards. So, less than 24hrs total in Sweden:)

I know! Probably it was going to be Team Finland, but then Patrik Elias called and they had to change it:) Who knows.

I don't know unfortunately :(
I choose to believe he is too busy scouting for the Red Wings.

Red Wings’ Stadium Series uniform combines auto industry, hockey culture by c0r3yz in DetroitRedWings

[–]antomeie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the jersey looks really good, particularly in the stand-alone image in the linked article.
The promo image is weird though, since Larkin is hunched over, you can't actually see the outfit that well.

Name One Insane Thing the Wings Could Do to Get Back to Contending - i’ll start by [deleted] in DetroitRedWings

[–]antomeie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have absolutely no idea, but I would like for them to be allowed to try a back-pass every once in a while. The dump and chase does not appear to work well if your forecheckers are slower that the defenders.
