Today's Action 3/11/08

Red Wings:
The Wings are back in action tonight as the Blackhawks come to town for the 6th meeting of these teams this season. Chicago had our Wings' number early this year winning the first four match-ups, but Detroit notched a 3-1 victory in Chicago in their most recent game.

The Wings are still ailing with injuries to Chris Chelios, Tomas Holmstrom, and Dan Cleary but having Nick Lidstrom back in the line-up is always good news. Nick looked good in Sunday's game against Nashville, playing more than 24 minutes and getting two assists in the 4-3 win.

Tonight's game is at 7:30 and you can catch it on FSN-Detroit.

Tigers:
The Tigers have split squad games against Cincinnati and Cleveland at 1:05 today.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to catch anything from spring training yet other than a few highlights here and there. Of the four major sports, baseball is definitely my weakest in terms of knowledge and desire to watch. This year should be pretty exciting for the Tigers, and I will be paying attention for sure, but I hope to have at least one other blogger here soon helping me with the coverage throughout the season.

The Rest:
The Pistons have the night off, and today the Lions are undoubtedly working on signing an ineffectual free agent to a larger contract than the market would dictate. But hey, we dodged the Dan Morgan bullet when New Orleans signed him, so there is my silver so far lining this offseason.
