    Opinion: Petr Mrazek should be starting Game 1

    People act like Mrazek is playing great..and he isn't. He let in two easy goals last game too. I don't think Mrazek is ready to be an NHL goalie yet.

    3/22 GDT : Blues 1 at Red Wings 2 (OT)

    This should really put the whole "Howard can't keep us in a game" thing to rest.

    3/19 GDT : Red Wings 1 at Panthers 3

    What will changing out two players do to alter the consistency of the entire team? The wings have always been this way, at least in recent memory. I think we need a coaching change.

    Matthew Wuest, Capgeek founder, passes away from cancer

    That's horrible to hear. How sad.

    3/8 GDT : Red Wings 3 at Bruins 5

    I think the Wings have been playing good, but Gus can't stop s***. He's probably going to lose us this game.

    3/8 GDT : Red Wings 3 at Bruins 5

    I hated Gustavson deciding to take a nap even more. I also hated when he tried to give whatever Boston player was in the crease a hug instead of trying to stop the puck on the second goal. I hope this is the last game he starts. Bring up Mrazek if we need to.

    "Marek makes his mark with Red Wings" The boys at NHL.com are SO excited for that one.

    2/23 GDT : Red Wings 3 at Ducks 4 (SO)

    The wings have had late game defensive breakdowns all year. If Howard is so bad, then how did he keep up in the game for 50 minutes?

    2/21 GDT : Red Wings 7 at Dallas Stars 6 (OT)

    Abby was pushed by a Stars player and lost is balance, just like we pushed a Stars player into Howard when they scored a goal.

    2/21 GDT : Red Wings 7 at Dallas Stars 6 (OT)

    How is Howard supposed to stop any of those when there is no one defending the net and Stars players are left alone? This team has no hunger. I honestly hope we have a new coach next fall. Not that Babcock isn't one of the best coaches in the NHL, but we just need some fresh blood behind the bench to get our players hungry.

    Pavel Datsyuk demos Shooter Tutor

    I'd be so nervous if I was the guy feeding him pucks. Also, can anyone think of a reason that he was passing them off the pad rather than just passing them straight to him? Does it make the passes more consistent?

    Jurco to GR

    I'm annoyed that our top 3 lines are so diluted. Weiss and Nyquist should be up with Zetterberg.

    2/16 GDT : Montreal Canadiens 2 at Red Wings 0

    Earlier in the game Mickey said it was going to come down to a mistake. As usual, it was us.

    Next Number to be retired

    I don't think they necessarily have to be as good as Yzerman, Howe, etc (that's a pretty high standard) but I think the important thing is they led the team through a pretty important transition period for us and did an amazing job at it. One more cup would be nice though.

    2/11 GDT : Red Wings 1 at Penguins 4

    Fine with me. Howard could get all up in my net anytime. Mrazek showed a lot of potential but he's not NHL ready yet.

    2/11 GDT : Red Wings 1 at Penguins 4

    One game? The Red Wings completely choke against teams they should at least be putting up a decent fight against every single time. Beating Arizona and Colorado is super cool and all but it's not going to win us anything worth winning.

    Also, hearing multiple tones was nice.

    Babcock "I don't think it will be my final year here"

    The team is having a strong start but it's not like we've won the cup the past 5 years in a row. The past few years this team HAS been broke. Just saying.

    11/20 GDT : Red Wings 4 at Jets 3

    Ol' Ozzie was having a little trouble counting to 4 it seems but really started picking up steam at 5.

    The lesson here? Cheating pays off once in a while

    Should have given two penalty shots. Two players are free, two penalty shots.

    Datsyuk to play Thursday? Weiss to be a healthy scratch?

    I wish we would trade either Helm or Abdelkader or a pick or two. They're both getting pretty redundant. If one of them were let go, I'd like to see: Zetterberg Datsyuk Helm/Abdelkader Nyquist Weiss Franzen Tatar Sheahan Jurco Miller/Glendening/Andersson/Nestrasil Cleary Not putting Weiss in the lineup would be incredibly stupid. I think he played well in the preseason despite only 1 assist. It took Hossa a little bit to mesh with the team, it'll take Weiss even longer and not even having him start the season would be a huge blow to his morale. Thankfully I think Babcock is just sending a message, he'll be in. Babcock has a history of giving 2nd line centers s***ty wingers and being confused when they don't produce.

    10/3 Preseason Game: Detroit Red Wings vs Toronto Maple Leafs

    I think I've got a new drinking game: every time Mick tells a story about how the "old days" were way better and everything new these days sucks: shoot me because I cannot stand it anymore.

    10/3 Preseason Game: Detroit Red Wings vs Toronto Maple Leafs

    I think its because he wants to see Anderson as much as possible in the preseason. The preseason isn't about the best teams its about getting the best looks at your players.

    Yeah Gus sucks I hope Mrazek is our backup
