MSG had the preseason game on, a re-broadcast an hour after the game ended, and a 1-hour quickie version a half hour after that...It's good to have hockey back!

[Richybear]

How much are pre-season tickets there anyway?
Here, there's no real change from the regular season prices. (Though I'd assume if you're a season ticket holder those come included, but that might be asking too much from teams)

Was a blast last night. Pajaarvi got 3g 1a and Hall scored on a total gift from Dan Ellis and the place went apeshit.
Though it was just a pre-season game, it'd be nice to think there's something to get excited for around here.

Pittsburgh-CW (formerly UPN channel) has the only televised Penguins preseason game LMAO This channel never broadcasts any sports and is where shows like America's Next Top Model, Hellcats, and traditionally African-American shows are aired.

[Selamis]

The African-American shows were part of UPN, once they merged with the WB, to become the CW they dropped all those, except for Next Top Model I think, not sure as I don't watch that. Not sure how it is out there, but out here during the day and until 7pm, the station is WGN and plays Hawks, Bulls, Cubs, and Sox games then after 7 it turns into the CW and plays all of those programs, unless a sports game is scheduled and then they just play everything after the game and the 9 pm news airs.

[Callisto]

the UPN affiliate here was the U(channel 8/old school Power50), I think they actually air Wolves games here and there lol

[Selamis]

Wolves moved to the digital station 100 if I'm remembering right, they used to be on The U but for some reason not anymore.

[Selamis]

Lol my Facebook page is already starting to fill up with numerous "Detroit sucks!" statuses from my friends. God I missed hockey.

Fuck yeah Power50

[Callisto]

Fuck yeah Power50

If I could build a network that had nothing but Time Trax, Kung Fu: The Legend Continues, Highlander, Renegade, and AHL Hockey I'd become a fucking kabillionaire I assure you.

[Ishido]

No Bertuzzi to make me shit blood for tonight's game, thank god!

[Callisto]

ugh 'Salei wearing Chris Chelios' number, 24', fucking blasphemy

[Callisto]

god lol Datsyuk vs. Hendry is not even remotely fair

[Callisto]

sweet defense

[Callisto]

holy shit lol Hawks dressed like the C-team

[Ishido]

This really shouldn't be an even game, similar teams except Wings threw in their top line, top D pairing and starting goalie lol.

[Callisto]

This guy who I've never heard of has taken two penalties already lol...I've followed their camp pretty closely and I still have no clue at all who Bollig is.

[Callisto]

This really shouldn't be an even game, similar teams except Wings threw in their top line, top D pairing and starting goalie lol.

Yeah...our best player dressed tonight is Dave Bolland, I'm a huge fan of him myself but he shouldn't be your top player out of all 18 lol

[Selamis]

Isn't Toews playing? I just got home, had to make a stop at the store to get my rum for the night lol.

[Ishido]

Holmstrom is old and useless in a lot of ways but goddamn if he isn't good at sitting in front of goalies and redirecting shots.
