Winging It In Motown NHL GameCenter for Wings Fan in Chicago?

Just got a 1080i HD projector and a 120" screen and hoping to fill it with Red Wings games. I've been looking into the GameCenter deal to stream through a PS3. Has anyone used this and if so can you let me know what it's like as an out-of-market Wings fan? How many games do you get each week? How many were HD? Looking for suggestions as to how to proceed.

Winging It In Motown Will Emmerton get a shot in the future?

Kid's still really young, but he's looked good in the pre-season. Redwingscentral.com has him listed as the 11th best prospect. I realize you can't have a team full of all playmakers, that each team has its designated set of roles to be filled. If you're a skill guy like Emmerton and you're in competition with guys like Fil and Hudler for that non-elite skill position, the Wings have a history of being impatient with putting someone one the fourth line who isn't going to adjust to that style of play (unlike Patty Eaves) or doesn't ramp up their skills to make the jump up to a scoring line (way to blue ball us, Ville). 

Just curious what anyone had to say about him. He's only 22, which is a newly-pimpled pre-teen by Red Wings standards. Here's hoping he has a bounce back year in the AHL and makes some noise this time next year.
