What a setup by Hank...

That kid was amped up to pick up the first Octopi off Vegas ice. You saw it in his face. That's hockey fan right there. Good on ya, kid.

Well what do you expect, he ranked almost dead last in SP and GAA last year while Howard ranked right at the top with the same D. Of course it's not all his fault, but he's not helping.

Defense is awful. Give me Cholowski, Hicketts, Hronek, and Sarijaarvi

Go Wings!

5 minutes til puck drop, who's around?

What exactly would any of the kids learn from McIlrath? Which team has the nicest press box? How comfortable are the seats on the team bus? Lashoff played the entire season for the Wings in 2013-14. He knows what its like to make a meaningful contribution to a team at the NHL level. McIlrath has barely had a cup of coffee in the NHL. Lashoff played in 5 playoff games. McIlrath has zero. Lashoff has been there, done that. He knows what its like to wear the Winged Wheel. McIlrath doesn't. Lashoff has played for Blashill, McIlrath hasn't. McIlrath's strengths are his size, strength, and physicality. Not one of the kids plays that way, nor should they. I wouldn't have McIlrath mentor Saarajarvi any more than I would have Witkowski mentor Svech. Lashoff relies more on positioning, fundamentals, the mentality of the position. That's what the kids should be learning. That's why I like him in GR, for now. That's what I base my comments on. Anyways, I feel like this has come to a stalemate. Totally fine with that. I am just a noob here so I don't want to come off as being disrespectful in any way. Some of you guys have been around for a while and know your stuff so I respect your opinions even if I don't agree with them and I hope my posts reflect that.

Hopefully we destroy them so the wings Twitter person can reply with a simple “scoreboard.”

Bomb you say GMR?

Henrik Zetterberg, Knight slayer extraordinaire

Pi on the ice!!!

Whoops spoke too soon...

Yea I don't think anyone can argue with the fact that he's been hung out to dry so far. So many turnovers in the d-zone.

Count your blessings. Could eezily be 2-1 VGK right now. Same old story. Waaaaaaaay too much of this game taking place below the faceoff dots.

All We need is for Petr to get his swagger back!

I think Mrazek will start tonight and I think that is a good thing. I want him to play against the team that I bet he is pissed didn't select him in the draft and out to prove them wrong.

I don’t think he had any future there anyways. Late first rounder who was great in the OHL, good in the AHL, but couldn’t crack the lineup with the big team. Kinda like McCollum. But Subban was actually given chances to start games, not just a few periods. Rask is stinking it up so far though, so maybe they wish they still had him around? I just want to see Fleury get lit up. Ruh roh...

2018 SCF preview right here.

And we were the 2nd most productive PP behind Chicago. A year later we sucked at PPs with pretty much the same core

And get Betty White to be the first ever to do it. You know she would do it, she doesn't give two s***s.
