Right, because they could never beat us if the series was tied 2-2. This is a must win game for us and not them. I can't remember ever seeing the Wings come back from down 3-1.
-
The worst part about that call is that now we have an excuse despite the s***ty game that we played and despite all the shots that we missed wide, or shot into the goalie's chest. Neither team deserved to win this game.
-
It's mind boggling to me that none of our players have that urge, since all the fans seem to. I wanted to see Datsyuk punch Pronger in the adam's apple there.
-
They're lazy and they suck. Other than that bearded GOD on defense who isn't playing in this series.
-
We can storm the league's offices and recreate Attica. Bettman will be the first hostage we'll execute. We can also send 10 billion emails to Datsyuk asking him to get off his lazy ass and score.
-
Yeah, that's all we need is another Euro who's going to get pushed around, on the 4th line no less. What we need is our star players to get off their asses. If you're relying on a guy like Leino to win for you, that means we've already lost.
-
If Rafalski doesn't play in the next game, I'm going to flip my lid. Our PP sucks right now with Samantha on the point. Also, our star players have vanished into thin air. It's like an episode of Unsolved Mysteries.
-
On the bright side, we probably would have lost in OT since we usually do against them. Babcock should be blamed for the loss. He didn't change lines and he put Sammy on the PP. He's lazy and he sucks.
-
I want to eat that referee's children right now. (to quote a hero of mine) These ******* didn't deserve to win the way they played in the 3rd sitting back.
-
I hate excuses, but we have a valid one.
-
Why couldn't it happen to Pronger or Niederwhiner? Homer needs to pick his spots better.
-
Is Datsyuk going to score a goal anytime soon? He's starting to look like vintage 2006 Datsyuk. Also, why does Flip fall down anytime anyone does anything remotely physical to him? His balance is terrible. One of our guys needs to fake a fight to pick up the extra minor on the Ducks. I don't have much faith in our 5 on 5 play right now.
-
Hey, we actually did something physical to one of their players.
-
The Wings lifeless play reminds me of some of Pink Floyd's songs right now.
-
It's only natural they're going to get all the calls since the puck is always in our end.
-
Every bad call leads to a goal against us. This is frustrating. Do something Bettman. You need the Wings in the finals.
-
Another shot into the goalie's crest. Have all our players forgotten how to shoot the puck anywhere else?
-
You're diminishing McCarty and Drake's contributions to the team last year. Helm is still here, but those other 2 players brought energy that our 4th line is lacking from anyone else right now.
-
There's plenty of people who agree with me too. Wings vs. Ducks looks like a broken record right about now.
-
In the playoffs you only get a few games to fix it, or else you're eliminated. This is where coaching has to take over and right now Babcock isn't doing a good enough job of it. The line changes need to be made now. These combos aren't working.
-
Sure, spin the story any way you want it. They're sleepwalking because they look intimidated. I want to see this team come out and take it to the Ducks physically the rest of this game before I change my mind on this. When most of our forwards aren't crashing the net, it looks like a result of intimidation and a lack of physicality.
-
I can't believe Babcock didn't make any line adjustments after the last game. Bad coaching when coaching is most needed. We haven't scored a goal in around 4 periods now. Where are our star players?
-
The soft Euros had a tough 4th line all season last year to back them up and to set a tempo for them. This year they don't. Now it seems to have caught up with them, unless they actually prove me wrong and start taking it to Anaheim physically.
-
This is why many people (myself included) have complained all year that having a soft lineup will catchup with you eventually in the future. Right now Anaheim has us off our game with these scrums and battles along the boards that we're losing. Wings players haven't been accustomed to this kind of play all season. Bottom line is that the Wings are soft on the puck and appear to be afraid to crash the net against Anaheim's bigger, more physical team.
-
Our soft Euros are in need of someone like Drake or McCarty in the lineup, like we had last season. Right now this team is taking it to us on the boards.
