From the Detroit Free Press: Wings still have sense of the moment

Distant replay


Wings still have sense of the moment


ANAHEIM, Calif. When your liabilities become your assets, you finally can start smiling. Here, at last, was Valtteri Filppula - who in the first six games of this playoff series had dropped in fan opinion like an anchor with an anchor tied to it - and a wobbly puck was coming his way.

MITCH ALBOM REMINDS FANS HOW THE WINGS' YOUTH GIVES AND TAKES AWAY


Rookies tie it up


in unlikely fashion

The Latest From MitchAlbom.com: New Book to Publish in November!

A Special Announcement from Mitch:

"The First Phone Call From Heaven," my new novel, is out 11/12/13! I wanted you, my friends and loyal readers, to hear it from me. Am breaking some new ground today! Will be publishing a brand new novel for the first time ever in November (usually September), first time ever in a consecutive year from last book (thank you, caffeine!) and first time ever with HarperCollins, my new publishing partner. It's a magical story about what happens when one little town, way up north, starts getting calls from souls in heaven. Who believes, who doesn't? Who flocks to join them? Who points fingers and calls them fools? And ultimately, what happens to the world when the biggest mystery of life seems suddenly solved? I'm having a great time writing it, and I am really happy to be sharing this with you. A cover will be revealed soon. Meanwhile, would love to hear your early thoughts. And don’t forget to let your fellow readers know. Thanks, as always, for being such a wonderful part of my world!
