08:22 AM ET 09.21 | Barely a week old, the lockout already has Detroit's Hockeytown Winter Festival imperiled. Jimmy Devellano, senior vice president/alternate governor for the Red Wings, said Thursday the organization is in a wait-and-see mode. "We're only days into a lockout, so it's so very early to speculate on any of this," he said. "You don't know what is going to happen in a month from now. I don't know what is going to happen in a month from now. But I will say a month from now, some decisions will have to be made pro or con." The Winter Festival is set to take place the final two weeks of December, ending with what's expected to be a sellout crowd at Comerica Park for an alumni game between the Red Wings and Maple Leafs.

and the one GOOD idea Dwarfus Horriblius has had will now be flushed because of him and his owners. On behalf of the communities involved (and the revenue they will now lose)...**** Dwarfus

Where's the picture of Mike? Howard, pfft. I keep waiting for the picture of Mike to move a little bit--that can't happen when they miss opportunities like this.
