Detroit Red Wings 2016-2017 News and Updates
This week was an exciting one for the Detroit Red Wings. Their future for postseason play was almost completely dependent on the Red Wings defeating the New York Rangers on April 9. However, the Red Wings weren't able to pull off the W against the New York team and went to the locker room with their heads hanging in disappointment. Soon after, the Red Wings were told that the Ottawa Senators beat the Boston Bruins 6-1, which pushed the Red Wings into the playoffs and complete euphoria. Get your tickets today to see the Red Wings play the Lightning on April 17 in the quarterfinals. Tickets start at $79 each.

After winning two in a row the Detroit Red Wings lost against the Lightning, ending the hopes of a streak. On March 22, the Red Wings played the Lightning but were unable to keep up. After falling behind by three, Justin Abdelkader scored for Detroit eight minutes into the second period on a power play. Seven minutes later, Darren Helm scored to get the Red Wings within one point. However, the Lightning found the net again and regained control of the ice to take the 6-2 victory. The Red Wings will look to turn things around when they host the Canadiens on March 24. You can still get tickets for prices starting at $85.
3/18/16 - A late start in a Tuesday night game against the Flyers cost the Detroit Red Wings another game this season, and many are starting to worry that the team's playoff hopes could be in jeopardy. The 4-3 decision was a fair representation of how the team's played all season long—fairly flat but with enough moments of energy to keep them in the running. The Red Wings haven't missed a postseason appearance in 24 years, something that is unheard of in professional sports. Though not out for the count yet, Detroit has to gain some momentum if they want to make a run for the Stanley Cup. They'll play the next two on the road before returning home to take on the Canadiens March 24.
2/9/16 - With three straight victories to their name, the Detroit Red Wings have vaulted into a tie for second place near the top of the Atlantic Division. Both the Wings and Boston Bruins own 64 points through their first 50-plus games, leaving both teams a half-dozen behind leader Florida. Detroit had to knock down those very Panthers as part of their current streak, besting the first-place squad in a 3-0 shutout. They followed it up with a 3-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators and will now host Boston on Sunday in another key matchup. Get your tickets for Joe Louis Arena starting at $104, but you'll have to act quickly—supplies are very limited!
2/2/16 - The Detroit Red Wings lost their first game back after over a week off. They played the Lightning on February 3 and fell 3-1. After a scoreless first period, the Lightning struck first. Gustav Nyquist, with an assist from Tomas Tatar and Kyle Quincey, equalized a few minutes later. However, the tie did not last long, as the Lightning scored just over a minute later to once again get ahead. The Red Wings were unable to get another goal. They play the Panthers on the 4 and then head home for a long stretch that starts with the islanders on the 6. You can catch the action in person for ticket prices that start at $46.
1/26/16 - The Detroit Red Wings have had a strong season this year, but they have been struggling slightly lately, which has brought their season record to 25-16-8 and lowered them to the third position in the Atlantic Division. Strangely, the Red Wings have won each of their away games, while losing each of their home games, meaning they have won three of their last six matchups. Perhaps their upcoming five-game home series will help them regain their footing. There are just two more away matches before it all kicks off on February 6th. They will host the New York Islanders first. Get your tickets starting as low as $64 and secure your spot in the stands.
1/19/16 - Since the Detroit Red Wings ended their winning streak last week, they have been having some trouble. While they were able to take a 3-2 victory against the Arizona Coyotes in their final away matchup for the series, it came down to overtime and they have not been able to repeat their win since. The Red Wings hosted the Philadelphia Flyers and the St. Louis Blues, but ended up behind by one point in both games. These losses bring the Red Wings' series of home games to an end. They will return to Detroit on January 23rd for one quick match against the Anaheim Ducks, but fans will have to wait until February 6th for another home series.
1/12/16 - After playing five successful games on the road, the Detroit Red Wings decided to take a break on Tuesday to relax and do something fun. After spending most of the day shooting rifles in the desert, golfing, or hitting baseballs at the batting cages, the team reunited to watch Arizona play Edmonton in preparation for their Thursday game against the Coyotes. Hopefully the break will be just what the Red Wings needed to help them hang on to their second place standing in the Atlantic Division. They will play their next couple matches at home against the Flyers (Jan. 17) and the Blues (Jan. 20). Tickets are on sale now starting at $32.
1/5/16 - The turn of the calendar has been beneficial for these Detroit Red Wings, who've won consecutive contests to start 2016 after dropping their last three games of 2015. They're in need of just about every point they can secure at the moment, with Florida running off a staggering 10-game win streak to catapult themselves into first place in the Atlantic Division. The Red Wings finished off the New Jersey Devils 1-0 on Monday to fire up a new winning streak, and they'll do their best to keep it moving as they visit San Jose and Anaheim this week. Tickets for the Honda Center are on sale now! Check out Ducks vs. Red Wings on Sunday with tickets from $10!
12/29/15 - The Detroit Red Wings had a strong early season, but they have been struggling far more recently. With their most recent loss against the Winnipeg Jets on December 29th, the Red Wings have lost two consecutive matches, bringing their season record to 18-12-7. These have been away games, however, and they are now returning to Detroit to host the Pittsburgh Penguins. Hopefully this match, on December 31st, will be more fruitful for the Red Wings. After this game, they are hitting the road for six matches, but will return again on January 17th. Tickets for that game, which will be against the Philadelphia Flyers, are already available starting at $56.
12/21/15 - Team coaches and officials have been singing the praises of defenseman Brendan Smith this week. The Detroit Red Wings player has been showing great confidence on the ice lately, and his game is all the better for it. "I like where my game is right now. I like the efficiency I've been playing with," Smith said after a Friday night game against the Canucks. Smith had a great pass to set up a Pavel Datsuyk goal in the 4-3 shootout loss. The Red Wings will up against the New Jersey Devils this Tuesday, Dec. 22 at the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit. Tickets are on sale now for $66 and up.
12/15/15 - The last two games have been tough on the Detroit Red Wings, who are currently ranked second in the Atlantic Division. On Friday, they lost to the New Jersey Devils 2 – 3 in overtime, after they allowed the home team to tie them 2 – 2 in the second period. On Monday, the Red Wings went home to play the Buffalo Sabres, who upset them 2 – 1 in a come-from-behind win. It was a brutal loss for Detroit, just ask any fan who was at Monday's game. The Red Wings will now remain at home to play the Vancouver Canucks on Friday night. Get your tickets for as little as $42.
12/8/15 - Patience is a virtue, and that's something the Detroit Red Wings know all too well. Tomas Jurco has been behind a lot of hype this season, but coaches are telling fans to give him time to mature and come into his own as a player. "He and I talk lots about the mental toughness that is needed to overcome adversity of not playing and getting the opportunities he wants. So Jurco is still young," commented head coach Jeff Blashill. Jurco's skills were prominent, however, during Tuesday's game against Washington when he his first goal of the season. Detroit is scheduled to play the Buffalo Sabres at home this Monday, Dec. 14. Be sure to get your tickets for $12 and up!
12/1/15 - The Detroit Red Wings have gone into overtime in their last five games, and came away the victors in three of them. Their most recent overtime win was against the Sabres on December 1, which was decided by a shoot out for the first time this season. Tomas Tatar, Justin Abdelkader, and Drew Miller scored to bring the Red Wings to an early 3-1, but the Sabres battled back to tie the game and get ahead. A power play goal by Abdelkader tied the game. After a scoreless overtime, Brad Richards scored the only shoot out goal to give the victory to the Red Wings. They host the Coyotes on December 3, and you can still get your tickets for prices staring at $15.
11/24/15 - The Detroit Red Wings may be in third place in the Atlantic Division, but that doesn't mean they don't have some close competition following them. The Bruins and Lightning are right behind them by just one game, so it is extremely important for the Red Wings to continue to bring home the W's. The Red Wings have had some time off from their last game against the St. Louis Blues on November 21. That game was tight and came down to the final minutes in overtime play. Luckily, the Red Wings were able to score first and win the game 4-3. See what they can do when they take on the Edmonton Oilers on November 27. Buy your tickets today.
11/17/15 - The Detroit Red Wings won an exciting match against the Senators in overtime on November 16.

10/27/15 - The Detroit Red Wings have placed themselves on an even playing field, with four wins and four losses. Just recently, they pulled out of a three-game losing slump when they took on the Canucks on October 24. Unfortunately, that was followed by a 1-3 loss against the Carolina Hurricanes. Everything was looking good for the Red Wings up until the third period against the Hurricanes. The two teams were tied at 1-1, but the Red Wings lost a lot of steam and weren't able to hold off the Hurricanes any longer. The Hurricanes scored an additional two goals to win the game.

10/20/15 - The Detroit Red Wings are basically back to square one with three wins and three losses to their name this season.

On October 13, the Red Wings played a great home game against the Stanley Cup runner's up, the Tampa Bay Lightning. With high expectations from the Lightning, most predictions were in favor of the Florida team.

Tickets are still available.
10/6/15 - With the immanent start to the 2015-16 season, the Detroit Red Wings are finalizing their roster.

Darren Helm is looking to make it back to the ice within a week after suffering an injury during training camp. You can still get your tickets for the home opener on October 9 against the Maple Leafs with prices starting at $71.
9/15/15 - A successful effort in 2014-15 didn't culminate in the prize the Detroit Red Wings had hoped for. Despite posting a 43-25-14 record, there's unfinished business if you ask the Wings. Detroit was upset in the opening round of the NHL Conference Quarterfinals, dropping their best-of-seven series four games to three. In order to reach the postseason once again, it's a sure thing that the Red Wings will need to see strong production from veteran forward Pavel Datsyuk. The 37-year-old remains one of the most dynamic two-way players in hockey, and his squad will look to him for leadership each night they take the ice. Preseason tickets are on sale now for Joe Louis Arena! Come out on Wednesday night and see the Wings take on the world champion Blackhawks with seats starting at $6!

On the heels of the Red Wings shutout victory, the second of the round for them, fans were optimistic because Detroit only needed to win one of the remaining two games to secure their spot in the divisional finals. Whether they let their guard down or simply had a run of bad luck, the Red Wings could not manage to pull out a victory, losing 5-2 and then 0-2. Even though it is sad to see their season end, they played hard and it was a heated battle right up until the end.

However, the Hurricanes scored twice in the same period, leaving the Red Wings trailing by one upon entering the third period. Two minutes into the period, Gustav Nyquist scored the equalizer, and Pavel Datsyuk scored the winning point for the team.

3/19/15 - The Detroit Red Wings stopped a possible three game losing streak by dominating the Penguins and winning 5-1 on the 15th. After losing 7-2 to the Flyers the day before, the Red Wings bounced back and secured the win, which also gives them a five-point lead over the Bruins for third place in the Atlantic Division. The Red Wings started out strong, with a goal by Riley Sheahan in the second minute of play, followed by another goal late in the period by Teemu Pulkkinen.

With Teemu Pulkkinen and Riley Sheahan each scoring once and adding one assist, the Red Wings ended the game 2-5. Unfortunately, they are no closer to the top of the division. They remain in the same position: six points behind the Montreal Canadiens. Your next chance to catch them live is on March 12th when they play the Columbus Blue Jackets. After that, it will be nearly two weeks before the Red Wings return to Detroit. Tickets are available starting as low as $25.
3/3/15 - The Detroit Red Wings are just wrapping up their six-game series of away games and they did admirably, winning four of the six games on the road. These recent wins are getting them close to the top of the Atlantic Division. They trail behind the Montreal Canadiens and the Tampa Bay Lightning, with only 6 points between them and the number one position. With such an exhausting run of games, the Red Wings are sure to be grateful to be back on their home ice. They start by taking on the New York Rangers on March 4th. Tickets start at $34.

2/24/15 - It has been an exhausting stretch of games for the Detroit Red Wings, who have seen four of their last five go into overtime. Three of those contests ended in shootouts, with the Red Wings claiming two victories in their last three games. Saturday night featured a particularly wild battle, as Detroit prevailed over the Dallas Stars, 7-6. The Stars led by two goals in the second period, and again mid-way through the third, but two scores by the Red Wings in the final eight minutes pushed the game in to overtime, where Niklas Kronwall netted his seventh of the season to complete the rally. Detroit will duke it out with the San Jose Sharks on Thursday night, and you can be a part of all the excitement starting at $40!
2/17/15 - The Detroit Red Wings came up short in their rivalry game versus the Montreal Canadiens on Monday night, falling 2-0. Following a tough 5-4 shootout loss to the Winnipeg Jets, a game in which they led by 3-1 in the second period, the Red Wings are looking to change their fortunes in a hurry, as they try to keep pace in the Atlantic Conference. Goaltender Jimmy Howard made his second start since returning from a groin injury which kept him off the ice for over a month, stopping 27 shots as he continues to shake off the proverbial rust. Detroit will get right back to it on Wednesday night, as they travel to the United Center in Chicago to face off with the Blackhawks. Get in with tickets starting at $94!
2/13/15 - Trailing the Montreal Canadiens by just two points in the Atlantic Division standings, the Detroit Red Wings have been playing like a team with designs on a first-place finish. Having won 10 of their last 12 games, the Red Wings have added to their cushion over the Boston Bruins, making the most of a manageable schedule that included games with Colorado, Arizona, Florida, and Minnesota. However, they ran into a wall on Wednesday, falling 4-1 to the Pittsburgh Penguins, putting in their lone goal in the final minutes when the game was already decided. Detroit will get three nights of rest before returning home for games versus Winnipeg and Montreal. A handful of tickets for Red Wings vs. Canadiens is still available starting at $85, but don't delay—supplies are limited!

You can be a part of all the NHL action at Gila River Arena in Glendale, with tickets starting at just $45!
1/28/15 - Another win for the Detroit Red Wings as they come out victorious against the Florida Panthers on Jan. 27th.

They scored a whopping four times during the middle stretch of the game, the first of which being only 32 seconds into the second period. Luke Glendening scored twice, while Stephen Weiss got one point and two assists and Riley Sheahan also had two assists. This was the Red Wings' sixth victory in a row, but they unfortunately lost it on Jan. 29th when only Darren Helm was able to score against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Detroit plays the New York Islanders next and tickets start at $34.
1/19/15 - Tuesday night, the Detroit Red Wings will look for their fifth straight victory as they close out a three-game homestand versus the Minnesota Wild. The Red Wings managed an improbable comeback victory on Sunday night, rallying from a 3-0 deficit to knock off the Buffalo Sabres behind captain Henrik Zetterberg's hat trick—the sixth of his 11-year career. Detroit is knocking on the door for first place in the Atlantic Division, and not far behind the New York Islanders for tops in the Eastern Conference, with the mid-season All Star break just around the corner. Get in the game on Tuesday night at Joe Louis Arena when the Red Wings host the Wild—a handful of seats are still available starting at $40, so act now!
1/13/15 - The third ranked team in the Atlantic Division is the Detroit Red Wings. Thus far, they have amassed a 23-11-9 record, and are one of the better teams in terms of offenses. Their last game was against the Buffalo Sabres, which ended in their favor 3-1. Darren Helm, Tomas Tatar and Gustav Nyguist all scored for the Red Wings, and it was a team victory that they can hang their hats on. Kyle Quincey had a great game passing the puck around, and ended up getting 2 much-needed assists. Up next for the Red Wings is an important game against St. Louis, which goes down tomorrow. Tickets for the game can be bought right now, and the starting price is $55. It should be an exciting one for the fans.
1/5/15 - The Detroit Red Wings have a huge following no matter where they go. They've been on the road since January 3, and on January 17, they finally come back to home ice at Joe Louis Arena to face the Nashville Predators. If you've been missing your Detroit hockey team, don't wait to get tickets from Razorgator. Great seats are available, with prices starting at just $67. The next day, the Red Wings host the Buffalo Sabres. Seeing your favorite team two days in a row is a fantastic way to beat the winter blues. At 21-10-9, the Red Wings sit in 3rd place in the Atlantic Division. Coach Mike Babcock says this is the best Red Wings team since the 2008-2009 season when they almost repeated as Stanley Cup champions.
12/30/14 - After winning two games in a row, the potential for a streak ended when the Detroit Red Wings lost 2-5 against the Boston Bruins in their most recent outing on December 29. Despite the Bruins having many players on the sick and injured list, they were able to draw ahead early. Although the Red Wings have recently been strong at coming back from behind, they were unable to do so against the Bruins. Detroit's two goals came from Justin Abdelkader and Tomas Tatar, and Jimmy Howard also had a strong night with 40 saves, although not enough to bring about a victory. The Red Wings have learned a lesson about needing to be ready to play their best at the start of the game. They can test their readiness when they meet the New Jersey Devils at home on December 31. Tickets are still available, starting at $34.
12/24/14 - The Detroit Red Wings most recent shoot out loss of 2-1 against the Colorado Avalanche brought their winless streak to six games, with them losing 7 out of 8 shootouts. They currently have a record of 17-8-9, putting them 3rd in the Atlantic Division. The team is working on how to score more goals, and be stronger in shootouts to turn around their season. Stephen Weiss is back from injury and ready to play after missing four games with a shoulder injury. He will provide a welcome assist to an offense that has been rather lackluster in the past few games. They next face the Buffalo Sabres at home on December 23rd, before heading to Ottawa to face the Senators on the 27th (tickets starting at $81) and Boston to see the Bruins on the 29th (tickets starting at $24).
12/18/14 - Coming off their fourth loss in four games, the Detroit Red Wings are hoping to regain their traction as they take on the New York Islanders on Friday at home. The combination of being in Wing territory and a sea of red-attired fans in the seats should help Detroit as they battle the 21-10-0 Islanders. Despite being on a two-game winning streak, the Islanders have holes in their defense that the Red Wings would be smart to expose. With the combination of their power play expertise and hopefully some players coming off the injured list, Detroit just might be able to snap that losing streak. Tickets are still available to see the Wings in person at the Joe Louis Arena, starting at only $24 per seat.
12/10/14 - The Detroit Red Wings are currently ranked 1st in the Atlantic Division, with a 17-6-5 record so far this season. Their latest victory, on Sunday, December 7, was a 3-1 win against the Carolina Hurricanes. The dynamic duo Tomas Tatar and Pavel Datsyuk led the Red Wings to success, with Tatar scoring two goals and Datsyuk scoring the third and assisting twice. Their win against the Hurricanes makes three in a row. They will be looking to add a fourth when they return home to face the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday December 10, followed by the Florida Panthers on December 12. These games pit them against other teams in their Atlantic Division, so the outcome will affect their status as number 1. Tickets are still on sale for the Panthers game, starting at $19.
12/2/14 - The Detroit Red Wings had an outstanding victory on Sunday when they took on the Vancouver Canucks. In a very high scoring game, Detroit managed to score twice in the first and third period and one more in the second brought their score to a whopping 5 over Vancouver's 3. Henrik Zetterberg led Detroit with 2 assists and Pavel Datsyuk led in scores with 2, the second of which was unassisted. Despite winning the game, Vancouver did shoot more often, but the Red Wings' strong defense held strong. Now that they are at 14-5-5, Detroit prepares for a series of away games, starting with the Florida Panthers. They will return to Detroit on the 7th, when they take on the Carolina Hurricanes. Tickets start at only $7.
11/25/14 - At one-quarter of the way through the NHL season, the Detroit Red Wings are averaging 2.75 goals per game, which puts them right in the middle of the pack. They sit in 4th place in the Atlantic Division, with a 10-5-5 record. On Wednesday, November 26, the Red Wings are on home ice for a game against the Philadelphia Flyers. The Red Wings recalled Stephen Weiss from Grand Rapids, and he's looking to get his start on the ice for the team. Tomas Tatar is on a hot streak with 8 goals in the last 11 games. You'll want to get your tickets to watch these great players on the ice. The Red Wings need your support to get back into the playoffs for the Stanley cup.
11/18/14 - The Detroit Red Wings hardly have time to breathe between their upcoming games when they're out on the road against the New York Jets and Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday and Saturday respectively. Local fans will be happy to see them come back home to the Joe Louis Arena on the 24th to host the Ottawa Senators. Detroit is 4th in the Atlantic Division at 8-4-5, and they are struggling with consistency this season. They have a strong fan base, and they are the favorite in their road trip games. They'll need your support to find the motivation to stay on top of the game and take more shots which should help them put more wins in the column. Get tickets to cheer them on and watch them play great hockey!
11/11/14 - The Detroit Red Wings are on home ice on Sunday, November 16th facing the Montreal Canadiens in an evening game. The Red Wings had a tough game against the Tampa Bay Lightning that ended in a shootout with the Lightning taking the win. Before the Wings meet the Canadiens, they host the Chicago Blackhawks in a Friday night game. You'll want to get tickets to see them play at the Joe Louis Arena before they go out on the road for three games. The Red Wings are 5th in the Atlantic Division, and they are a fan favorite, so the tickets will go fast. They have made the playoffs in 28 of the last 30 seasons. Help cheer them on to get back there again.
11/4/14 - As the Devils arrive in Detroit, the Red Wings are sure to be eager to defend their territory. Currently standing at 6-3-3, Detroit is shooting for those crucial victories that can help them fight their way into the upper tier of the Atlantic division. Following the stroke of Gordie Howe, the Red Wings have certainly got their cause to rally around, and with the news of his progressing recovery can only help to embolden their resolve as New Jersey arrives for the match in Detroit. Fans can expect their Detroit Red Wings to leave it all on the ice on Friday, and can get personal view of the action by securing their seat before they're gone. Tickets for the game are still available starting at $28.
10/27/14 - With 10 points and seven assists, the Detroit Red Wings' Henrik Zetterberg is back to his old form. Zetterberg missed significant parts of last season with back injuries, but offseason surgery took care of the issues to return him to his form as a productive skater.
10/23/14 - The city of Detroit will demolish the Red Wings' home, city-owned Joe Louis Arena, as part of a deal struck with a creditor in the city's bankruptcy case. Not to fear that the Wings would be left homeless – a new downtown arena is under development not far from JLA.
10/16/14 - Through the first 3 games of the 2014 NHL season, Detroit's 1-1-1. After winning a home game on 10/9 vs the Boston Bruins 2-1, they lost to Anaheim 3-2 and Boston 3-2 in OT. Still, with 3 points they're 6th in the Atlantic division.
The Detroit Red Wings are a franchise steeped in excellence and prestige, having made the playoffs for an incredible 23 seasons. Last year's campaign was decimated by injuries, chiefly those to Henrik Zetterberg, Joe Franzen, Pavel Datsyuk, Darren Helm, Stephen Weiss. Despite setting a franchise record for most man games lost to injury (471), this Original Six team still proved talented enough to make the postseason with vigor, but was ultimately cut in the first round by the Boston Bruins. Detroit is returning a generally unchanged squad from last year's playoff team, and if the Motor City squad stays healthy, who's to say they won't punch a playoff berth for an astounding 24th year?
Some of the game's most beloved players pepper Detroit lines, and now, those veterans will fine-tune an impressive influx of youngsters like Gustav Nyquist, Tomas Tatar and touted prospects Alexei Marchenko, Anthony Ouellet, Ryan Sproul and Petr Mrazek. GM Ken Holland was unable to bag a top-four defenseman in free agency, and must work with a lineup that boasts seven left-handers. In his 10th year as head coach, Mike Babcock is nears his 500th NHL career win, while David Legwand is likely to attain his 1,000th career game—making the entirety of the 2014-2015 calendar a can't miss affair. But, before they can toss the octopus onto the ice, they'll have to get through their 82-game slate (relatively) unscathed. See Detroit host playoff caliber teams early on: the defending champion LA Kings visit on Oct. 31, the Chicago Blackhawks on Nov. 14 and of course, the Bruins on Oct. 9. The game against Boston not only marks a playoff rematch from last year, but it also opens up the Red Wing's 2014-2015 season. Lock-in Detroit Red Wings tickets for this monumental year now!
2013-2014 Season
4/21/14 – Boston and Detroit's first round playoff series is all tied up 1-1 and the Red Wings will play their first postseason game of the year at Joe Louis Arena, Tuesday. The cheapest Detroit Red Wings tickets are $62 for Game 3, averaging $120 (up $9 since the NHL Playoffs began). In a best-of-seven series that the Bruins are widely favored to win, the Detroit Red Wings secured Game 1 of their twenty-third consecutive playoff run. Pavel Datsyuk's goal with 3:01 remaining did the trick, and Detroit won 1-0 Friday on the road. Boston evened the series with a 4-1 win over the Wings in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals, playing more physical and limiting Detroit to just one power-play shot in four tries.
4/17/14 – The Red Wings secured the second and final NHL postseason spot in the East with 93 points and now have the longest active
Stanley Cup Playoffs
streak (23). Detroit will face the No.1 seeded, Presidents' Trophy winners
Boston Bruins
for the first time in 57 years in the playoffs. The three home games played in Detroit (Games 3, 4, and 6) of the Original Six matchup are much cheaper (avg. $175) than the four game average of those played in Boston ($366). Tuesday, the Red Wings will play their first playoff game at Joe Louis Arena (avg. $111, min $42), followed by home game 2 (Game 4) Thursday averaging $143 and a Game 6 if necessary in Detroit Monday (avg. $240). First round playoff tickets for the series are an average $254. Detroit holds the regular-season record at 4-2.
4/7/14 – The NHL enters the final week of the regular season with the Red Wings leading the wildcard race in the East. Winners of four straight, Detroit's playoff hopes looked more attractive when All-Star forward Pavel Datsyuk (knee) returned to the lineup Friday against the Buffalo Sabres. Expect a fast-paced, high scoring game at the Consol Energy Arena Wednesday when the Red Wings travel to Pittsburgh in a potential first-round preview. The two teams have met twice in the NHL playoffs in the last five seasons and have split two games already this season (DET with the OT win March 20). Detroit Red Wings playoff tickets are now available, with round one prices upwards of $41 (home games 1 and 2).
4/1/14 – If the Red Wings can find a way into the NHL Playoffs, they'd extend their postseason streak to 23 seasons, the longest active streak in all North American professional sports. After grabbing four points on a back-to-back weekend, Detroit holds the first wild card spot in the Eastern Conference. Mike Babcock secured a historic mark in his own right, earning his 411th victory as the Red Wings' coach, second most in the franchise. With just three more wins, Babcock will surpass Jack Adams for the top spot.
3/24/14 – The Red Wings won 10 straight home games without a regulation loss before losing in OT to the Minnesota Wild Sunday night. Detroit will look to protect its playoff position with a handful of wins this week. Two of the Red Wings next four will be played at Joe Louis Arena – 3/27 vs. Montreal (avg. $75) and 3/30 vs. Tampa Bay (avg. $78). Following a 3-2 win over the Wild Saturday in Minnesota, the team moved into eighth place in the Eastern Conference.
3/18/14 – Tonight's Original Six clash against the Toronto Maple Leafs is the most expensive (avg. $98) regular-season game remaining at Joe Louis Arena. Detroit is looking for a spark from their offence (scored three goals over their last four games) as the club looks to make a push for their 23rd straight playoff appearance. Currently three points behind the New York Rangers for the last playoff berth in the East and without their captain Zetterberg (back) and superstar Pavel Datsyuk (knee), the Red Wings need your support!
3/10/14 – Former Detroit Red Wing Nicklas Lidstrom had his jersey retired last Thursday, becoming the first defenseman in franchise history to do so. The Colorado Avs ended up winning that game in overtime, but the night belonged to No. 5. After Detroit put up a massive seven goals against New Jersey Friday, the Red Wings were shut out by the Rangers Sunday. In addition, Joakim Andersson broke his left foot when blocking a shot during the second-period PK in New York and will miss 2-3 weeks. Catch the boys, sans Andersson, when they return to home ice Thursday to take on the Edmonton Oilers (avg. $73).
3/3/14 – Pavel Datsyuk (knee) will not play Tuesday night, when the Detroit Red Wings visit New Jersey but is expected back on the ice Thursday against Colorado at Joe Luis Arena. Colorado Avalanche vs. Detroit Red Wings tickets start at $55; the game will be the first at home for the Wings since the Olympic break. The next night, Detroit will host New Jersey, coming full circle. New Jersey Devils vs. Detroit Red Wings tickets are slightly cheaper, with a get-in price of $45.
2/25/14 – Currently in the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, Detroit needs to return to the ice post-Olympics with a sense of urgency. Just one point separates the Red Wings and ninth-ranked Columbus. A back injury will likely sideline the team's leader in points (48), assists (32), and goals (16) - Henrik Zetterberg - for the rest of the regular season, which means the Wings' will look to their veterans - Pavel Datsyuk, Johan Franzen and Daniel Alfredsson – to fill the void. Cheer on the Wings when they return to Joe Louis Arena Mar 6; with 11 home games remaining, Detroit Red Wings ticket prices are averaging $94 in the tight playoff race!
2/18/14 – Like their rivals Chicago Blackhawks, the Red Wings have a strong presence at the Sochi Olympics with 10 players on rosters. However, both Detroit's first-time Olympian forwards Tomas Tatar and Tomas Jurco, ended their Winter Games journey today as Slovakia fell to the Czech Republic in the playoff qualification round. But, each delivered in the group phase of the tournament, scoring the only two goals for their Country in the first three matchups. Detroit Red Wings captain Henrik Zetterberg pulled out of the Sochi Games last Friday after suffering a herniated disk. The Captain of Team Sweden will return to the U.S. shortly, but will not take the ice when The Wings return to action a week from Wednesday due to the injury.
2/3/14 – The Red Wings may have dropped an 11-goal battle to the Caps Sunday, squashing hopes for a home-and-home sweep, but it was a standout day for right wing Gustav Nyquist who earned his first career hat trick and added an assist. Like the Washington Capitals, the Red Wings have gone to a shootout or overtime in three of their last four games. Tonight, Detroit will face the Canucks as John Tortorella returns to the bench after a 15-game suspension. Detroit Red Wings tickets at Joe Louis Arena are as cheap as $10 to see the 24-19-12 team for the last time at home until March 6.
1/28/14 – Last week NHL fans were asking if the Red Wings, Blackhawks rivalry could be renewed. Detroit Red Wings tickets to the Wednesday night matchup averaged 55 percent less than they had March 3 and 45 percent less than the Original Six members meeting March 31, 2013. Detroit made a statement against the defending Stanley Cup Champs, rallying to defeat the Blackhawks 5-4 (SO) and reviving the rivalry that some questioned could be restored. Things continued to look up for the Wings when Daniel Alfredsson returned to the ice against Montreal Friday and Johan Franzen was back in the lineup Sunday. Unfortunately, Franzen is out again with concussion symptoms. Next up for Detroit at home? Washington. Red Wings tickets are as low as $35 against the Capitals.

10 New Weight Loss and Diet Myths and Facts
Is it a no-no to eat after 8 PM? Discover the real answer to this question and more
This was a gimme, right? Ephedra ring any bells? Just because you can buy something in a health food store doesn't mean it's healthy. Unless and until a product's claims have been evaluated by the FDA, you should be skeptical. And, in any event, it's worth consulting a physician before taking any drugs.
Capitalize on the facts: While there is no magic pill, there are FDA-approved diet drugs and appetite suppressants (over-the-counter and prescription) that, when taken in conjunction with a reduced calorie diet and an exercise plan, can help you lose weight. One example is Alli, an over-the-counter medication approved by the FDA, which blocks fat absorption by about 25 percent. But Alli, like all weight loss drugs, is not recommended or appropriate for all dieters. Again, before taking any drug, you should talk to your doctor.

The greens have long maintained the reputation as a destination for casual meetings, but a recent trend suggests that golf courses have become more than a casual place to conduct business.
It's more mental than physical, and golf offers something for everyone.
"Because golf is the perfect marriage between brain power and physical power," said S.J. "Archie" Archuleta, a local golf enthusiast.
So it would make sense that in the last year, more and more people have been taking a swing at golf in the Grand Valley and nationwide.
"If you want to do something that is fun now and 40 years from now, take up golf," said Archuleta.
Archuleta enjoys hitting the greens with his 9-year-old son, Ben. For him, golf is a game of life.
"And the better you play the better you want to play," said Archuleta.
Several golf courses in the Grand Junction area have noticed a growing trend of golf enthusiasts in the past year.
"This year we are up, surprisingly enough: 2,000 starts for the year and probably about 6 percent as far as revenue goes," said Doug Dominiguez, general manager of the Chipeta Golf Course.
Dominiguez said it could be a sign that the economy in our area may finally be coming back around.
"Personally, I think 2010 and 2011 were sort of down years, and I think with the economy down, and then it stabilized to some degree as far as the area goes, and people felt they had a little extra money to recreate, and golf is one of those things that they were able to do," said Dominiguez.
Not only do more people appear to be taking that 18 hole stroll, but equipment sales are up for some businesses as well.
"This year our sales in golf seem to be trending upwards. We have seen a lot of folks in here upgrading their equipment as new technology comes out," explained Bill Walters, a senior sales associate with Authority Golf Department.
This nationwide upward trend could be a sign of economic stability or simply a sport gaining popularity as people seek an active and social lifestyle.
"I took him out of football because I would rather have him playing a game that he'll be playing for the rest of his life with old people like me, his father or young people," said Archuleta.
This past time is certainly a hole in one for people of all ages.
It looks like whether you are looking for a reason to skip out of the office early or spend some time with the family, golf greens are the place to go.
Golf courses say the weather as of late is ideal for golfers, hanging right around 85 degrees.

TALLAHASSEE – June 25, 2012 -
Due to the impacts of Tropical Storm Debby, Governor Rick Scott today signed Executive Order 12-140, declaring a statewide state of emergency. The Executive Order designates Florida Division of Emergency Management Director Bryan W. Koon as the State Coordinating Officer. The State Emergency Operations Center (SEOC) is operating at a Level One, full activation.
"Because of the broad impact of Tropical Storm Debby, virtually every county in Florida could be affected. Some communities are already grappling with flooding, wind damage and electrical outages," said Governor Scott. "This executive order allows the State Emergency Response Team to quickly and effectively coordinate the response and ensure needed resources are available. Florida's residents and guests should stay informed of the progress of Tropical Storm Debby and heed all instructions from local officials to keep their family, friends and businesses safe."
The Executive Order directs all state agencies, including the Florida National Guard, to provide any necessary assistance when requested by local governments. The Governor was briefed this morning at the SEOC and will remain informed of the emergency situation due to Tropical Storm Debby. Under Florida law, the Governor has the ultimate responsibility for protecting the public health and safety in emergencies that are beyond the capability of local government to control.
The SEOC in Tallahassee was fully activated Monday afternoon as a result of the potential impacts to the State from Tropical Storm Debby. The SEOC will continue to support requests for assistance from impacted counties.

According to the MIC BankCard program, dealers enrolled with it for payment processing can now save an additional 30 percent on their annual costs. But those dealers must ask for it. Nobody will be contacting them.
The cost reductions are due to a new long-term contract between the program and First Data, the country's largest credit card processor. The program pairs new enrollees with First Data automatically. But as for dealers already enrolled, unless they ask, they will remain with what used to be the program's only processor, Tsys.
MIC BankCard has agreed with Tsys not to solicit dealers for the free switch. Tsys, after all, is still the 13-year-old program's primary processor. To compete with First Data, it even may start lowering its own fees and rates for dealers who negotiate.
Dealernews spoke with the MIC BankCard program's director, Matt Tanzy, to get caught up on all these behind-the-scenes dealings. He makes a strong case for enrolled dealers to switch to First Data, calling the new program a major improvement (which makes the program a bigger draw for dealers not already participating).
First Data benefits not only from economies of scale, but also from owning its own Visa/Mastercard bank and several other businesses related to processing. Virtual terminals, a loyalty program, a gift card program, electronic payroll deposits and other services are available from this one source, making customer service and troubleshooting easier. In fact, dealers switching to the new processor will receive first-tier help desk services usually available only to retailers processing more than $500,000 per year, Tanzy says.
But before we delve into that, let's define what the savings are, and how they come about.
First Data's Big-Dog Leverage
First Data owns the network that processes the vast majority of U.S. transactions. "Ninety cents of every dollar that gets processed in credit cards goes through First Data," Tanzy says, "and 8 cents of every dollar goes through Tsys. So it's a huge difference in the volume. The remaining 2 cents goes through little specialty networks."
As mentioned, First Data is the only network that is also a bank, and it owns a bunch of other stuff in the processing channel, making it an end-to-end solution.
First Data is selective about with whom it partners, usually going after big boxes like Wal-Mart. Tanzy had to negotiate with the company for a year, even though the MIC BankCard program processed more than $1 billion in 2008. An agreement was finally reached, and First Data began offering its services at the beginning of the year. Atlanta-based Boaz Group, the manager of the BankCard program, and for which Tanzy is president, changed its name to First Payment Systems to reflect the change. (Continued)

God made a sweet child
He made a smile of sunshine
He molded a heart of pure gold
God made a sweet child
and he gave that dear child to me.
Then God saw his wonderful creation
growing tired, so he wrapped my sweet
in his loving arms and said you my
sweet child I will keep.
I think back to the time when God gave you to me
I held you in my arms as happy as I could be.
First smile, first words, first step
You gave me so much happiness
Your smile, your voice, your laugh
I carry it with me day in and day out
Remembering how full of light and love you were
God blessed me with you and I am forever grateful
to have had such an amazing son!
I will hold all the memories deep in my heart
Through these memories we will never part
You're my shining sun, my glowing stars, my precious moon
You're my beautiful bright red rose in June
My heart beats with thoughts of you engraved in my soul.
Each night we shed a silent tear
As we speak to you in prayer
To let you know we love and miss you so.
Take our million teardrops,
Wrap them up in love
Then ask the wind to carry them
To you in heaven above.
Rest in peace my sweet child
I send this to you with all my love
upon the wings of an angel to heaven up above.
Always in our hearts. Love You Always and Forever!!
Love Mommy, Daddy, Joah and Family

During Twist, Trey said Mike's and Page's names with the letters twisted around.

Songs by Debut Year:
This show was part of the "2012 Early Summer Tour."
Set 1
Crowd control: I really don't like this song. Super cheesy. Although, it was some what fitting considering how rigorously people were being searched getting in the doors, at least at th gate we went through.
Dinner and a movie: here we go. This was a good version that got the crowd jumping.
Sweet Jane: personally, I'll take cool it down over sweet Jane all day, but hey, we already got cool it down. This was icing on the cake. Good version.
Limb by limb: this limb was solid, but the banter before was hilarious. Don't bring signs and hold them up too long, but we're going to play this guy's sign...
Possum: a solid rocking version. Many dog on possum but I'll take it. It provides trey a sure fire structure to get his blues wailing rocks off.
Mound: after going nearly 70 shows w/o a mound, I got my 3rd in 2 summers. This was a good version and everyone came out of the middle section in sync and soaring.
Life on mars: this set was starting to feel a little hodge podgey, but it was definitely high end hodge podge. Personally, I love this song, and I thought they did another nice job on it.
Mango: a solid version. Trey didn't sound so sharp the last couple times I saw him play this tune, but everyone sounded good on this take. As this one wound down, trey had a little curveball prepared for everyone...
Bbfcfm: boom... They packed maximum weirdness into this wild one. It seems they could have built on this one but they went in a different direction...
Strange design: weird choice after bbfcfm
Boaf: trey sounds very in control as they slam down a nice type 1 jam on this one. It doesn't travel to far out there, so it moves easily back into the traditional ending.
Halley's: I'm a sucker for this song. Once again, trey takes a dominating solo here, but as they are prone to do these days, they shut the door on this one rather abrubtly and go into...
Wmggw: well, if you're not going to get a Halley's jam...
This was a nice pleasant surprise and as phish does, they did this rock classic justice.
This first set was not as silky smooth in the cohesiveness department as the night before's, but it was still a good solid enjoyable set.
Set 2:
This is not a flawless set, but there is still some must hear stuff floating around...
Dwd: I always kind I cringe when this opens a second set because its become pretty predictable, but this dwd is no freaking joke. It's the best one I've seen since the monster from the creek in '03. This one explores 3 or 4 very interesting musical ideas. Also, they move seemlessly between these ideas. Around the 12 min mark or so, trey really starts wirking on a very undermind'esqe groove. I was really pulling for them to drive into it, but they move away. Right as I accepted they weren't going to shift into undermind, trey cranks up...
Sand: this sand is not your daddy's sand. In fact, none of 2012's were. Instead of gordo and fish just sitting on the beat and letting trey bury it, trey rotates brilliantly between rhythm and lead, and fish and, especially, Gordon are constantly shifting the beat. Gordon packs so many different grooves into 8-10 minutes it's insane. Like the dwd before, they move seemlessly between different ideas, and gordo just shines throughout this sand. He accentuates his bomb filled bass grooves with some beautiful flurries of notes for accentuation. This sand moves nicely into...
Twist: this twist was pretty fucked from the get go. Trey missed a verse, and then he had some word play fun. I think the lyric flub threw him off, so the twist jam just never happened. Many had visions of them pulling off another monster, being hot on the heels of the beast in Cincy, but it was not to be. Instead of jamming, they go into...
Rift: well, trey needed to hit th reset button.
Bt gin: bam!! Just what the doctor ordered. Only the 3rd 3.0 second set gin. They quickly move away from the typical gin formula into some very thick "storage jamming." Gordon and fish have some heavy stuff layed down, and trey and page really get something going here. It sounds like this could be heading into gorge rock and roll territory, but it slacks for a moment and trey pulls the cord.
Now, in the realm of phish, I try to focus on what is and not what could have been, but this jam kills me. Maybe it was out of gas and trey wanted to pull it before that was evident, but it seemed if he would have held out a bit longer, this gin could've been an all time keeper. Either way, trey, in what was a pretty smooth segue, moves into...
Fluffhead: well, it's played a lot, it killed the gin jam, but I love this song! They put a lot of fire behind this super sharp version.
Ride Cpt ride: this is a nice rare score and I liked the somewhat odd late 2nd set placement. It went nicely with...
Antelope: the deer creek antelope returns!!! They didn't just play this song at every creek run from '95-'04, they ripped it. Sadly to many, the deer creek antelope had yet to pop up in 3.0. This was a good solid version with some nice ride Cpt teases. Sure, it's the second time in 3 shows I'd seen a 2nd set close with antelope, but fuck it... It's antelope!!
Cavern: well, I thought it was going to be another standard enc but...
Sanity: good version. Funny placement. Love it!
1st tube: phish closes the creek run down rowdy style. Not my favorite tune but it does the job. Beats another loving cup...
All in all, a damn fine night of phish. Dwd->sand is a fantastic 1-2 punch. Sure, gin didn't do what I thought it could do, whatever that means, but it is a nice departure from the norm. This is another sharp 2012 performance making the deer creek run a strong candidate for 2nd best run of the year... Behind dicks, of course.
Set 1: sweet Jane, life on mars, wmggw (yeah, cover heavy)
Set 2: dwd->sand(must hear!!), bt gin(very interesting and worth checking out)
Plenty of Phish shows have crazy weather stories that go along with them, and one this was no exception. Central Indiana was the hottest since the 1930s, said the weather reports. As we drove into Indiana for the first DC show (which, BTW, did not disappoint), we started to experience the epic heat - we'd step out of the car for a break and come back 5-10 minutes later, suddenly realizing that we were dripping wet.
The heat continued throughout the 29th, and with greater humidity! We got some dinner before the show, and all the sudden the sky got evil dark. Soon enough it started to rain like crazy - and hail! The wind was stupid strong. BUT, soon the storm passed, leaving the air wonderfully cool... at least for a while.
Set 1. I'd never heard Crowd Control and I don't remember much about it. Then BAM, Dinner and a Movie! YES! Second song and the lawn was just RAGING. They nailed it. Sweet Jane - another song I didn't know (I snuck off to the bathroom for that one). Limb x2 was nice, and then they ripped a new asshole in Possum. Possum has surprised me a number of times in 3.0, c.f. the Blossom Possum from 2011... this one, as I recall, just ripped HARD. Great to hear Mound, of course. Live of Mars? was completely unexpected and they played it wonderfully. I'm a big Bowie fan (meaning David Bowie the musician), so I was thrilled, and really quite surprised at how well Trey nailed all the symphonic crescendos. All smiles for the Mango Song. I was extraordinarily excited for BBFCFM, as it's one of my favorite Phish songs (really!). I'd never caught it live before, and I was flipping out with plenty of happy first pumping.
If I remember correctly, the rest of the first set was well-played, but short and to the point (which has been rather common occurrence thus far on this tour... not that I'm necessarily complaining).
Set 2 is perhaps a little bit hazy for me. My buddy and I were both quite happy with the song selection. I had no idea what was going on with Trey and his mixed-up name-twisting. The whole place erupted when Sand segued into Twist. Fluffhead was tight, which is how I like it.
The highlight for me was definitely the encore. Sanity? Are you kidding me? Talk about another song that I would have never ever expected! This was just so much fun. It was great to watch the huge monitors hanging from the pavilion and clearly see how sincere Trey looked as he sang the unsettling lyrics. First Tube was a great way to wrap up the DC shows, being a wonderfully energetic tune. Near the end Trey was doing his overly-excited hop-up-and-down, take-two-steps, hop-around-again thing (exactly as I remember seeing him do it from a video of the Tweeprise that closed one of the Island Tour shows from back in 98).
According the this fan, DC lived up to its reputation. I made lots of great memories.
The first set through BBFCFM is perfection. They really took their time and played everything very well. I was a bit disappointed that both BOAF and Halley's had almost zero improv. I love the placement of those two songs back-to-back, but they both felt a little rushed.
The DWD > Sand to open the second set is some of the best jamming from this tour so far. If you haven't listened to it yet, you're missing out. I do love Rift, but I thought Trey's decision to abandon the Twist jam was a little hasty.
Fluff > RCR > Antelope speaks for itself. Trey absolutely shredded the latter two, and Page really shined on Fluff.
A really surprising and energetic encore capped off a spectacular two days at Deer Creek. "I lost my mind just a couple of times" this week.
Hope everyone keeps having fun and the band takes a few more chances on stage. If it does not work sometimes making the mistake is the most beautiful thing! Peace!
both nights are a must download in my book!
The first set got off to a quick start with a semi-rare Phish tune Crowd Control. It was my first time ever hearing the tune, but it suffices as a set opener to get everybody moving. From there, Dinner and a Movie, which hadn't been played since the '11 UIC run in the same exact same set placement, surprised many but was a welcome addition. The elusive song selection didn't stop there with Velvet Underground's Sweet Jane being busted out, the first time in over 14 years and only the 3rd time ever.
The first set didn't end there with surprising songs; Mound and Life on Mars? were both played for the first time since SBIX. Musically, the highlights of the first set would have to be the tight Mound and Life on Mars? (thanks soundcheck), and the raging Possum.
Now for my favorite part of the show and coincidentally the first leg of the '12 tour, the 2nd set.
The musical highlights of the night all occur here. DwD was energetic and flowing. Sand was just flat out jammed out, definitely a must-hear highlight and in my opinion DwD>Sand is the highlight of the tour so far.
Twist had a clever maneuver from Trey, which broke from the usual Twist verses, that he twisted Mike and Page's letters in their names around. Twist was tight with more room to jam, although it was abruptly cut off with Trey leading the band into Rift.
The Rift was a basic one and not out of the ordinary. Bathtub Gin held a very tight jam led by Page when Trey was "twisting" Fish's name around. Although the Gin is short (only 8 mins), it is a pleasure filled 8 minutes that segues seamlessly into Fluffhead (another one of my favorites).
The Fluffhead was played very precisely and tight with little miscues. Out of Fluffhead came Ride Captain Ride, yet another rare bustout. As it was my first Ride Captain Ride, I was ecstatic when it was being played.
And to close the second set, Run Like An Antelope was a blast. With teases from Ride Captain Ride, Twist quotes, and more it's an action packed Antelope that ends with a little game of Marco Polo with the band and the crowd.
The encore was raging with an always energy filled Cavern segued into a Sanity. The sanity was insane. The band knew they couldn't leave everybody off with Sanity, so they busted right into the groove full First Tube.
To wrap it all up, the second night of Deer Creek had it all with many rare live songs in Crowd Control, Sweet Jane, Ride Captain Ride, and Sanity, jam filled ragers in DwD, Sand, and Bathtub Gin, and tight played complicated pieces like Fluffhead and Mound. The combination of these made for a great time for everybody at the show. I'm glad to be able to say I was there, and I enjoyed being there with all of you who made it as well!
Second set picked back up where night one left off. Out of the gates the DWD->Sand->Twist grabbed me and I found my self back on the intergalactic space ride I was on during last nights second set. Even though this Twist didn't have the layers and girth many have this tour it still was placed perfectly for me in the set. To my delight I then got 3 of my favorite Phish songs in a row with Rift->Gin->Fluffhead. Trey's crazy lyrics during Twist and Gin left a memorable uniqueness to the set. Showed me once again the band is just having a lot of fun right now. Ride Captain Ride played well to the theme of the night as bustout city. I think everyone was happy to round out the set with Antelope. This kept the party going and kept the dance grooves going.
Cavern->Sanity->First Tube finished things off in perfect fashion and ended one hell of a Creek run.
I think many left this show happy and they definitely got their money's worth and then some. Not at the level we got in night one but still left us with a lot of versions to listen back to.
Thanks again boys!!

Lionsgate has borrowed a little inspiration from its hit trilogy "Hunger Games."
Playing off the central theme of propaganda, the studio released an "official Panem Address" as the movie's first official trailer -- five months before "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay -- Part 1" is due to hit theaters.
Donald Sutherland appears in the 90-second clip as President Snow, urging the people of Panem to stay "together as one."
"Your hard work feeds us," he says. "And in return we feed and protect you."
In the third installment of the franchise, set for release Nov. 21, war is coming to Panem as the oppressed districts rise up to fight the Capitol.
Returning for the movie are Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Sam Claflin and the late Philip Seymour Hoffman. New to the cast is Julianne Moore as President Coin.

There is a lot of news to report from the Richmond Museum of History, which is preparing for a historic launching, has landed some significant grants, and is seeing some changes in its administrative side.
The biggest news is the announcement that plans are in place for the historic World War II cargo ship SS Red Oak Victory to make its first voyage under its own power since the vessel was retired in 1968.
The announcement was made informally by Richmond Museum Association President Lois Boyle last month and made officially by her in the latest issue of the association's newsletter.
"The hard work of our volunteers has paid off and the funds from our grants and fundraising efforts have been well spent," Boyle writes in announcing plans for the ship to set sail this Veterans Day (Nov. 11).
This is a major milestone for the ship, which was taken to dry dock in September 2011 for major refurbishing of its hull.
A limited number of "Sail Certificates," which allow the purchaser to be aboard the ship for the long-awaited voyage, are now available and should be purchased before the July 30 reservation deadline.
Certificates are $20 each and six are required to redeem for the sailing. To purchase or get more details visit the gift shop on the Red Oak, 1337 Canal Blvd. in the Port of Richmond, or call 510-237-2933.
The project is titled "For the Love of the Ship: Elder Volunteers on the SS Red Oak Victory."
According to the Cal Humanities website, "Community Stories (previously the California Story Fund) is a competitive grants program to support story-based public humanities projects that collect, preserve, interpret and share the stories of California communities -- past and present."
The one catch is that "cash or in-kind match is required," according to the website.
Richmond community agriculture organization Urban Tilth is a past recipient of a Community Stories grant.
The Richmond During World War II Outreach program will teach 11th-graders at RHS about the contributions Richmond made to the war effort and the consequences of the war on the city.
The program will supplement state-mandated instruction on the war and "we hope that by teaching local history to the students, we will instill a new sense of pride in the young people who live in the city of Richmond," writes Melinda McCrary.
McCrary is the new docent at the Richmond Museum of History at Fourth Street and Nevin Avenue and her arrival is just one of the administrative changes taking place.
Lois Boyle is stepping down after 30 years as board president of the Richmond Museum Association and decisions on her successor and the election of other board members will be made when museum members hold their annual meeting at 2 p.m. Jan. 13 at the museum.
WEST COUNTY NOTES: The emergency pantry operated by the Salvation Army in El Sobrante had hundreds of toys and bags of clothes and groceries to distribute to the needy during the holidays thanks to the annual donation drive conducted by firefighters from Pinole.
This is the 20th year that personnel from the Pinole department have worked with the Salvation Army post to provide for local needs during the holidays.
"Donors range from local families to local businesses and schools, all willing to share the holiday spirit," wrote Battalion Chief Brian Lowry in a news release thanking the community for its generosity. "Our collection bins overflowed numerous times and the Salvation Army's van was stuffed to capacity on multiple trips between the fire station and the El Sobrante mission."
He added that, "Off-duty firefighters also made trips in their personal vehicles to make sure the toys got to the kids in time."
The league is also seeking volunteer coaches. Details: 510-986-9220 or sanpablobaseball.clubspaces.com.
To sign up go to the Richmond PAL building at 2200 Macdonald Ave. during open hours or call 510-621-1227 or 510-621-1221 from 2 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday for more details. January is also the deadline for registering and screening managers, coaches, umpires and volunteers.

Those yearning for another look at quarterback Tom Brady and the Patriots or for Peyton Manning's first playoff game since January 2011 will have to wait another week.
Just the same, NFL wild-card weekend ought to hold you over just fine.
The 49ers are idle, but they could learn their playoff opponent Saturday night. If Green Bay beats Minnesota, the Packers will be at Candlestick next Saturday. If Green Bay loses to Minnesota, the 49ers will draw the winner of the Seattle-Washington game Sunday.
Three rookie quarterbacks take the stage Sunday, including Andrew Luck, whose Indianapolis Colts go up against Baltimore in what could be the final game of Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis' legendary career. Seattle's Russell Wilson and Washington's Robert Griffin III, who have carried their teams and their towns to unexpected heights, will square off in the late game.
Behind Griffin, the Redskins closed the regular season with seven straight victories, the last a 28-18 win Sunday night against Dallas with the NFC East title and playoff berth at stake.
Wilson directed the Seahawks to 11 victories this season, including an 8-0 mark at home. But Seattle will be in Washington -- not their Washington -- and their 3-5 road record included losses to Arizona, Miami, St. Louis and Detroit, all teams with losing records.
Yet, for all the quarterback talk, this game might be decided by the running backs, Marshawn Lynch of Seattle and Alfred Morris of Washington, a sixth-round draft pick out of Florida Atlantic last spring. Lynch rushed for 1,590 yards, Morris for 1,613 in providing nice complements for their rookie quarterbacks.
Too bad Wilsonw or Griffin won't make it past this game. On the other hand, we're assured of seeing one of them again next weekend.
The Pick: It says here that Griffin, before a frenzied crowd of 82,000, adds to his legacy by outdueling Wilson in a game that will be remembered as the first of many great matchups between the two. Washington, 20-10.
Cincinnati at Houston, Saturday 1:30 p.m.
This the least intriguing matchup of the weekend. For one, we've already seen it -- the teams met in the first round last year -- and it wasn't pretty. For another thing, the Texans, once the class of the league with an 11-1 record, are stumbling, bumbling, fumbling.
Houston has lost three of its last four, and last Sunday's 28-16 loss at Indianapolis cost the Texans a first-round bye and home field in the second round. Questions are rising once more about quarterback Matt Schaub, and not just from the general public. Jerry Rice and Matt Millen joined the chorus this week, the latter saying of Schaub, "When the lights get bright, his leg gets wet."
But the Texans still have Arian Foster and JJ Watt and Andre Johnson and -- heck, for that matter -- T.J. Yates, who quarterbacked last year's playoff victory when Schaub was hurt.
The Pick: The Texans are vulnerable, but Cincinnati, devoid of a proven quarterback and a workhorse running back, is not equipped to pull the road upset. Houston 31-10, same as last year.
Minnesota at Green Bay, Saturday 5 p.m.
How sweet is the notion of Vikings running back Adrian Peterson taking his jaw-dropping act to Lambeau Field for a rematch against the Packers team he helped take down last Sunday?
Peterson averaged 204.5 yards in two games against the Packers this season, including 199 Sunday in a 37-34 overtime victory that had huge ramifications for both teams. The Vikings made the playoffs with the victory. The Packers lost their No. 2 seed, costing them a first-round bye and home-field advantage in the second round. (The Vikings' victory also cost Lovie Smith his job, as the Chicago Bears coach was fired for missing the playoffs despite a 10-6 record.)
The question is, can Saturday's game come close to matching the intensity and excitement of the game they just played? The bigger question -- for 49ers fans, at least -- is can Minnesota keep Aaron Rodgers and the Packers from coming to Candlestick next Saturday?
The Pick: It's difficult to envision the Packers getting bounced from the playoffs at home for the second straight season. Green Bay defensive coordinator Dom Capers, aided by the return of Charles Woodson, will have a better plan to contain Peterson. Green Bay, 35-13.
Indianapolis at Baltimore, Sunday 10 a.m.
Much-maligned Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco is 4-0 in first-round playoff games, but he won't be the most-talked-about quarterback in this game. Luck, the No. 1 overall pick in last spring's draft, is coming off a regular season in which he broke six NFL rookie records, including passing yards (4,374) and victories (11).
If he wins one more game, he likely goes to Denver to face Manning, the man he replaced in Indianapolis.
This game is rich in storylines. Aside from Lewis, whose potential finale also will mark his first game since an Oct. 14 injury, there is Colts coach Chuck Pagano, who made an emotional return last week after missing 12 games while undergoing treatment for leukemia. And then there's that thing about the Colts playing in the city they abandoned after the 1983 season.
The Pick: Luck has been amazing, but it will take more than him to overcome a Ravens team riding the wave of emotion generated by Lewis' return and potential departure. Baltimore, 27-21.
Cincinnati at Houston, 1:30 p.m., NBC
Minnesota at Green Bay, 5 p.m., NBC
Indianapolis at Baltimore, 10 a.m., CBS
Seattle at Washington, 1:30 p.m., FOX

Botox cured Kristen Chenoweth's migraines, and more fascinating tidbits from her Prevention Magazine interview
Remember when I was talking about botox as one of the new touted cures for severe migraines? It turns out that Kristen Chenoweth used to have debilitating migraines once a week before she started getting five Botox shots every six months.
You can read my original story about migraines here. You can also meet the busy Broadway (Wicked) and television (Glee) star, who is filming ABC's GCB, which is set in Dallas, in person when she signs CDs of her latest album, Some Lessons Learned, at Barnes & Noble Dec. 9. And you can read her cover story in the January 2012 Prevention Magazine, talking about all this plus being adopted, her struggles with Meniere's disease, depression, her love of dogs and performing for the royals (including her take on what Prince William and Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge are really like — "she is…tall! So tall. And beautiful. And charming.").
You can get all the details on the Prevention story here and on our previous blog post about Kristin Chenoweth here.
