    Finally, Abby drops the gloves. And doesn't get embarrassed.

    Big goal. Emmerton of all people bailing us out.

    So should Holland.

    Cleary's only breakaway goal I can think of came against Kiprusoff, with a penalty shot in game 5, 2007 playoffs.

    Smith trying to atone for costing us a playoff spot.

    I got excited until I saw who it was on the breakaway

    I wanted Erskine. He's put up better offensive numbers this year than Smith. This is the kind of crap we've been grooming in GR all these years. "Overripe prospect".

    Trade Smith. Piece of useless trash. Can't score, can't defend and takes dumb penalties.

    There's our "TOP" prospect all these years. Smith is very, very expendable.

    Every time Kronwall takes a penalty, an angel in heaven loses its wings.

    I've never heard the US anthem sung so fast.

    I hope this is not the last game I watch this season. Go Wings!

    4/19 GDT

    I disagree there, but let's get in first.

    4/19 GDT

    Just saying that these stats are only as good as your next game. I pay as much attention to this as I do to the strength of schedule crap. We were supposed to beat Calgary, just like other teams are doing. Doesn't work that way.

    4/19 GDT

    These numbers change wildly after every game. A loss tonight, and they'll be totally different again.

    Mike Babcock Line swapping.. Too much?

    Line combos don't matter if the forwards are lazy and don't have much talent. We have a few great players (who aren't scoring goals) and a bunch of scrubs surrounding them. It's the players that make the lines work, not the coaches. I do think the players have tuned out Babcock the last few years, but changing lines isn't going to fix that.

    Mike Babcock Line swapping.. Too much?

    In a short season, you have to swap all these lines, because you don't have time to let them gel together. He's done it frequently because the offense has been terrible and the lines haven't mixed well for the most part. It's a catch-22 in many ways.

    Soccer!

    That's what I envision happening as well, although I'd prefer Barca in the final. Bayern has the best overall team, with the best season and the fewest weaknesses. Question is, will they finally get over the hump or will they choke again?

    Putting Hank's goal scoring problems into perspective.

    His goal scoring numbers have slowly been dwindling over the years. In his best years, he took a boatload of shots, but had better aim and was good in front of the net. Now, he just throws pucks from crappy angles like the rest of the team.

    Howard = Average

    Howard got his big contract and he contributed with two goals...............................too bad they were into his own net.

    The one play that seems to give our Defense fits

    Our defenseman suck at a lot of things. Most notably is the inability to get pucks through the point. Enrico Ciccone was better offensively than most of our defenseman.

    EDGE

    If we can't get this guy, call up Callahan and Sheahan. Go after Clarkson and any other tough grinders who can score. We need to change our philosophy, since we no longer have the skill to play the old system.
  25. This is all on Babcock and Holland. Tatar should be on our roster right now, especially since we can't score goals. Instead, they put the same old garbage on the ice.
