    2/2 GDT : Red Wings 2 at Blue Jackets 4

    Bertuzzi and Cleary on the powerplay can't happen. Bertuzzi is good once every two weeks and Cleary is just a disaster, as much as I like him. Try Eaves instead -- can it possibly go worse?

    Doesn't elbowing require an elbow being used?

    Kronwall has not been good in his own zone this season. He plays too many minutes to be that sloppy defensively.

    In a league of truly embarrassing calls every game, that one is among the worst I have seen.

    Franzen has played very hard the past two nights. Using his size and going to the front of the net.

    Haha, Mick loved the cannon going off.

    2/1 GDT : Blues 3 at Red Wings 5 (Z with Hat Trick)

    Agreed. I think the Red Wings were going to win though either way honestly. They had all the jump and momentum in the third. Plus, the Blues had no answer for Zetterberg at all.

    A Few D-Men That Could Become Available This Year

    Why would they get rid of Ericsson? He has been the team's best d-man this season. I know he has flaws, but I wish the Ericsson is horrible stigma would go away. He has developed into a reliable player for the Red Wings. I don't think he's a top pairing d-man ideally, but he has done nothing to warrant angst like Quincey.

    Emmerton

    Emmerton has been basically what I expected. A marginal skill player in a bottom-six role that doesn't provide much of anything. He's a decent skater and can be used on the PK, but beyond that he's filler until Helm is healthy. I would prefer a 4th line center that hits, forechecks and is physical instead. Abdelkader does all of those things more effectively at wing.

    Wings need a PP QB?

    I know it isn't the easiest thing to accomplish, but Kronwall has to improve at getting pucks through to the net. He has shot a lot into traffic this season. Lidstrom was the best at it, but I kinda expected Kronwall to be stronger at that than he has shown so far.

    Pavel at the end of the interview. I'm cracking up.

    Henrik Zetterberg's determination is unmatched. What an effort to carry this team to a huge win. The captaincy is in great hands.

    Knew that was coming because of the Backes call. Why is Cleary even out there, though?

    Haha, awesome. See ya later Backes, you moron.

    2/1 GDT : Blues 3 at Red Wings 5 (Z with Hat Trick)

    Yes. Definitely defensively and nice offensive output tonight as well.

    2/1 GDT : Blues 3 at Red Wings 5 (Z with Hat Trick)

    Z and E best players by far tonight.

    If your mission is to call everything, how does that interference get let go?

    2/1 GDT : Blues 3 at Red Wings 5 (Z with Hat Trick)

    That period was ugly. The Blues won every puck battle and all the Red Wings could muster were their specialty perimeter shots. The Wings look like they have played three nights in a row besides Z.

    2/1 GDT : Blues 3 at Red Wings 5 (Z with Hat Trick)

    I can't believe Kindl, Bertuzzi and Cleary are seriously all on a powerplay unit together. That about sums up the mediocrity level we've seen.

    2/1 GDT : Blues 3 at Red Wings 5 (Z with Hat Trick)

    Watching this team, it's Henrik Zetterberg, Pavel Datsyuk and a bunch of passengers.

    Tootoo needs to destroy Jackman. I hate that guy so much.

    Are they calling this hockey still or the power play contest?
  23. GoWings1905

    2/1 GDT : Blues 3 at Red Wings 5 (Z with Hat Trick)

    I get that. We all know the standard will be different though by the time the playoffs roll around. Happens every year -- even more so far in this one with the strict enforcement.

    2/1 GDT : Blues 3 at Red Wings 5 (Z with Hat Trick)

    That's the point. Stop calling the soft garbage.

    Woo! Another game where the refs think they are the players. Let them play the damn game. This is ridiculous.
