If you're looking for W-L results, any hockey website should have them. Like nhl.com or tsn for example. Many of these sites also include breakdowns of OT loses, SO loses, etc. You should be able to find playoff records there too.

I know that "technically" that's a clean hit, but I'm with Mickey Redmond in saying that I hate that hit. It's hard for a defenseman to make that play and see the guy coming. And the only way a forwatd makes that kind of hit is if he's trying to hurt someone.

I'm not opposed to it is guess. Everybody knows I don't like having centers as wingers, but it's going to happen one way or another if Larkin is in the lineup, so I'm fine with it in theory. As far as the rest of your lineup, that depends on whether Jurco can get it going or not. If he can pick it up then I don't have a problem with him playing with Dats and Tatar. But if not, then default back to Helm. Helm isn't huge, but he's proven more than capable of being a digger for Dats and Tatar. Something that Jurco hasn't done consistently (yet), and that guys like Larkin and Pulkkinen are ill suited for.

I want no part of Tatar - Datsyuk - Jurco Sheahan - Larkin - Pulkinen on paper, on ice. Tatar - Datsyuk - Larkin (just like the line last year only you upgrade Helm with Larkin) Helm - Sheahan - Pulkinnen OR Jurco - Sheahan - Pulkinnen

Barring any roster changes I'd go with the following (when all are healthy). I don't like keeping Pulk out given that he's scoring, but he's not better than any of the three skill guys, and scratching Jurco for him means you have to put two little guys together no matter what you do: Tatar-Dats-Helm (It worked last year) Larkin-Z-Abby (It's working this year) Nyquist-Sheahan-Jurco (2 out of 3 ain't bad?) Miller-Glendening-Ferraro Larkin isn't an upgrade in Helm's role. He's a better player no doubt, but that's like saying that Jason Pominville is an upgrade over Abby because he scores more points. Not really when you consider the role.

This. And the Kronwall - Ericsson pairing. Adds up to Babcockianism. The Kronner - Big E pairing needs to be broken up, E clearly can't keep up at top line level, he's just plain outplayed.

I'm way late to post on this GDT but I was at the game and holy hell was that a fun win to celebrate with the rest of the Red Wings fans there. All 3 of our goals were absolute beautys

Sucks to hear about Green and Q, get well guys! During this time, I sure would like to see Jensen get some miunutes in the bigs.

For one, Sheahan doesn't play wing. He's never played wing. You may as well send him down to Grand Rapids if his "capable" wingers are Sheahan and Pulkinnen. That's essentially a checking line + a midget.

And only Mike Babcock would consider Datsyuk and Zetterberg above Larkin in the depth chart.

When Datsyuk is back, I'd like to see... Nyquist - Zetterberg - Abdelkader Tatar - Datsyuk - Jurco Sheahan - Larkin - Pulkkinen Helm - Glendening - Miller / Ferraro When Green and Quincey are back, I'd like to see... DeKeyser - Green Kronwall - Ericsson Smith - Quincey

Even Dave Lewis wasn't as bad as the "Dave Lewis" of lore. So I'm not sure how Jeff Blashill could be.

He also confirmed every single thing that Leftwinger's sister's boyfriend's brother has ever told him about the Wings.

More whispers than drama. Also way less weird than he seems in any of the videos I've seen him in where he's talking about prospects.

Is he super dramatic when he talks, and does he talk with his hands?Or does he tall strictly in whispers irl?

Insider information? If I take this bet will I get Rick Zomboed?

Not too shabby of a hit.

I think the hit they're talking about is at 3:33 of this video:

Can't wait for Pasha to come back.

Mrazek = wow

Howard plays to not lose. Mrazek plays to win.

<--- Officially in love with Petr Mrazek

That stretch Gus had was unreal. Couldnt miss.

I don't think that's a true sign of the apocalypse.
