Tonight we are up against the Coyotes. Some out there have this strange notion that this should be an easy WIN, but, 19 of us know better. The Wings cannot afford to take this Team lightly. The Yotes swept us last season winning both games, and with the Wings ability to play down to the level of a supposed inferior opponent on any given night, this is sure to be another nail biter.

With so many golf courses and beautiful weather, I hope the resort like atmosphere in Arizona doesn't permit any Red Wing to play as if this is a vacation. Quite the contrary. I hope the lush golf courses remind everyone of the all to early exit from last year's playoffs.

Business is business, and right now we HAVE to be all aboot the business of WINNING.
