MBN: 0 pts in 6 games ASP: 1 pt in 6 games Fingod: 5 pts in 6 games

Turns out Larkin is pretty damn good when he doesn’t have to drag a team full of losers around the ice.

That was an exceptional win last night. You don’t blow out the Panthers. Any win against them is going to be a grind, and that’s exactly what we did. The defense turned the puck over a lot in the first period and they need to clean that up, but they got better after that and we won the 2nd and 3rd. Finnie and MBN were quite good. At some point this season I’d like to see them with Kasper and Dcat with Larkin and Raymond. Maybe give Kane a bit of a break at 5on5 during the middle of the season. I also thought Ras/JVR/Sodorblom were really good last night as well. Had some really excellent shifts in the offensive zone and controlled the puck. I’m really liking this team so far, even with the obvious issues on the blue line.

MBN: 3gp 0pts ASP: 3gp 0pts ... Fingod: 3gp 2pts

And kept Toronto from getting any points, it was feeling like Detroit would be lucky to survive with just one.

Good road win there by the boys. Sloppy but still got the 2 points.

Feels right having a seasoned coach behind the bench. A Franchise like the Wings shouldn't do rookie-coaches. This is where you go after you have shown your worth in this league. >debrincat, mbn, seider have not shown up on the score sheet yet this might be sustainable, guys. eighty-one and one, *******

Larkin to 100 points this year.

No. I wrote that the site i got it from had a typo. Here's per The Red Wings

As long as SY isn't attaching a sweetner to get rid of them.

As a fan... peace of mind knowing there's 0 chance of seeing them in a Wings jersey again.

Saw something that SY is shopping Hamonic and Gustafson. IDK what u get for them besides future consids

God I'd hate to see the return for him! I hope this is not true honestly, espescially if it's gonna gut the farm system. I don't see anything on X.

4 games in or not, this is something we haven't seen in a LOOOOOOOOOONG time! ...also...

Good work on the GDT Leftie, well done. Curious to see what the lineup looks like tonight. Not sure I love the idea of Mason Appleton on the first line but I’m pretty positive McLellan knows better than I do.

Yup, im quickly losing interest in Soderblom. The era of big massive softies for us needs to end. Ericsson sucked. Ras sucks. Soderblom I no longer have patience for. Use your size or get bent. I remember watching games last season where 5 foot nothing Debrincat was the most physical Red Wing. Every bottom 6 player on this team should be ashamed after performances like that. I miss Kronwall so much. 6ft 200lbs and literally butt slamming people into the grave. If he can do it Soder and Ras have zero excuse. This team needs any sort of violent edge, and literally no one brings it. Seider used to... still mad cause i think we ruined him...

I'd like to see if Chicago would be interested in Soderblom to play along with his brother. Lets say for maybe, Lucas Reichel?

Because the 4th line has literally no identity. We are a 3 line team... plus pure offensive players like Soderblom and Berggren playing with PK specialists like Appleton and Ras, because we dont kno what to do with these extra players. So they just play on the meaningless jumble that is our 4th line. I do think we should cut ties with guys who cant climb out of the 4th line quickly at this point. Love Soderbloms size and skill, but he doesnt use his size and is more hit or miss than AA. Berggren blah blah blah same stuff. Ras fuqqin blows. A good team wouldnt have an experimental rookie throwaway line. We should be playing reliable checkers like Eaves, Miller, McCarty, Maltby, Downie, JASON FUQQIN THE BEAST WILLIAMS, Draper, or Kocur in those spots. But we aint there yet. 2nd line was awesome tonight. I want to move past Patrick Kane, but he is a fuqqin treat. He just does superstar s*** that 99% of players dont even think of trying, and its nice to have. Did I say Ras sucks yet? Chiarot takes too much heat IMO but its time to experiment more with AJo as Mo's partner.

What a big win. After stinking up the joint on opening night it’s huge to come back against a top team and spank them. We were far from perfect tonight but I really liked what I saw from lines 1-3 and the defense. The fourth line has no identity. Sodorblom is too slow and Berggren is a bad fit stylistically. If JVR doesn’t work out call up Mazur.

Petr Mrazek has let in zero goals so far this season

Soda needs to play up to his size or find a new team.

Just saying, this team has a whole new dynamic. 3 rookies. Vets not getting their As back. Might be smart to lean on those vets until rooks are fully up to speed. --------------- Looks like same forward lines tonight, but bergers in for soderblom

Speaking of which, I'm moving to Dallas on Monday. Sucks that was your first game at LCA, but have to make the pilgrimage at some point. First game of the year shoulda been a good choice. Bummer.

More ppl need to be shot with guns
