I don't agree with giving Abdelkader an A. As Doan so eloquently put it: "How do you have only 11 points playing with Datsyuk?" He's doing good things without the puck, and I get why he's on Datsyuk's wing now, but the guy should have more points just accidentally from playing with Datsyuk. He's just not an all-around good player. He's just a poor man's Holmstrom.

Also, throw it when the players are at the opposite end of the ice.
-
Just their luck to play like they have and still effectively have to play a game 7. I don't think we can count on Minny losing twice, so Columbus needs to lose.
-
I think with a full season we wouldn't be worrying about playoffs. We sometimes dipbdown to the average range for a few weeks. With another 35 games or so the Wings could've climbed right back up to the top. So my season review is: the lockout sucked.
-
Maybe the Franzen injury is a ruse to throw off Nashville's preparation? I didn't see him get hurt and Babcock doesn't seem to know anything at all about it.
-
We need Franzen. He finally rediscovered his inner mule beast.
-
Bertuzzi won't be in game shape. That worries me. He'd have to start on the 4th line to minimize his minutes. I'd almost rather he wait til playoffs. Then again, we need his puck control.

Putting Hank's goal scoring problems into perspective.

Once again, Datsyuk and Z both played overseas this year. Z has a history of injuries. They'll be fine once they recover. The lockout was horrible this year. -
Someone needs to change "JIMMY HOWARD!" to "JIMMY...JI

I, too, think Top Jimmy should've in the arena rotation. Imagine the crowd singing it after a huge save. -
We basically ended Phoenix's playoff dreams last night. They need Dallas, Detroit, olumbus to lose out and for Phoenix to win out.
-
Missed the game, great to win! mmMakes playoffs that much easier. Glad to hear some players have broken their bad habits. Now is the time to get hot.
-
This team could win a series against any of the western teams except for maybe Chicago. Minny and Columbus scare me only because of their Cinderella stories, but really even they don't scare me much.
-
I'm thinking it's more likely Columbus gets 7th and then our target becomes overtaking Minnesota for 8th. If Columbus wins both their games in regulation, the Wings have basically win all their remaining games. Worst they could do is 3-0-1 and hope for a tiebreaker. Hopefully my math is right, I'm tired.
-
I don't see Columbus losing their remaining games. Which really sucks. I suppose if they lose one and we win all of ours we will be okay, Haha. The Dallas-Columbus game hurts us. One of em has to win. Then a game against a hungry Dallas team to close the season. Those overtime losses are really going to cost us the season.
-
Just imagine how much money the league would make if they had multiple Stanley Cup final series. Every region gets one!
-
Which things from the past (not just Wings related) do you miss most?
VM1138 replied to frankgrimes's topic in General
I really miss quality teams. I don't mind parity. But I'd rather have a smaller league with stacked teams than a larger league with mediocre teams. It's too watered down. I don't like the 2 stars, 18 average ratio the league uses now. -
The suspect was shot and wounded. He escaped and was a block outside their perimeter. And it's a lot easier to hide in a big city than you think. Not to mention, he only fled authorities for what, 28 hours? Barely a day. They knew where he was, but short of firebombing the area, you don't take unnecessary risks with your personnel. As long as they had him cornered, so to speak, they had time.
-
Great, now we have to beat out both Columbus and Dallas to get 8th. Looks pretty unlikely now...

Go Kings!
