2/28 GDT : Red Wings 5 at Blue Jackets 2
8 Legged RedWing replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
Pretty excited to finally get back to playing hockey and seeing what this team can do down the stretch. This isn't exactly what team will be playing in the playoffs but it's a good opprotunity for some guys to show what they can offer. I hope with the young guys coming up and the line changes that the team plays with lots of energy tonight. 4-1 Wings. -
Yea it's called trying to block a shot. You kinda have to lay down to do that effectively... I am pretty sick of reading displeasure over Franzen. He obviously isn't playing up to his potential but no team is perfect and every team has under performing players. Would you rather him be hurt? Because I don't think he is going anywhere this season at least. I'm just glad he is healthy and hopefully will be for the playoffs because at the very least he commands attention from the other team on the ice and can free up space. This years current team is better with him versus without him and having someone from GR up.

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

The Wings are indeed a different animal on home ice even without Pavs but this is going to be another close game the whole way I feel. I think the deciding factor will be Jimmy > Lou all day. 3-1 Wings. -
Harpoons at the ready. 5-2 Wings!
-
LOL Datsyuk talking about the first goal.
-
That was incredible. I have no words. Except those words...
-
Time to go after that unofficial record and shut everyone up for good. Hopefully there is no let down after the playoff like environment on Tuesday. 3-1 Wings.
-
This is the last home game of the regular season that I will be pretty disappointed if we lose. The rest after this one are just bonus points. Let's set a new record tonight! I'm going to predict my first blowout of the season. 6-2 Wings.
-
I'm pretty sure the Bruins AND Flyers hold the record... I don't think they will be letting us win any time soon. I wish this kind of achievement would have Jimmy playing for it because you know he would play balls to the wall but I have faith Macdonald will play well. 5-3 Wings.

2/10 GDT : Ducks 1 at Red Wings 2 (SO)
8 Legged RedWing replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
Hoping for a good solid 60 minute effort here. I think with the team knowing the streak at hand and how the Ducks have been playing lately they should have no problem getting up for this game. Can't wait to sit back and watch! LGW! -
Yea let's be real. Nothing hurts in this world like '09. I want a rematch and revenge.
-
Wings 4 Yotes 3. Get well soon Stuart! Good news is both Commodore and Kindl have played pretty solid when called upon.

2/4 GDT : Red Wings 4 at Oilers 5 (SO)

We are going to need a good all around effort from everyone. At least they know Edmonton is playing pretty well right now so they won't be caught off guard. 5-4 Wings. -
2/2 GDT : Red Wings 4 at Canucks 3 (SO)

I really wanted to see Bert score but he played pretty well and had a good fight so that was alright. Got the W and that's what really matters. -

Can't wait for this one. I can't decide whether I should go out to the bar or stay in and watch this one. The late games are always prime for the bars but we'll see. I just hope Bert scores. Multiple times would be nice. Go Wings! -
I don't think Filppula will be traded but I don't think he has to. Nyquist, Mursak, Smith, 2012 + 2013 1st round draft pick. Go for the cup.
-
Give the guy a break. He got a puck shot into his face. Not much you can do about that one. Even if he has had injury problems before hand, he hasn't been that injury prone while with the Wings besides for maybe a 10 game groin injury it has been all minor.
-
I can pretty much laugh this one off and say their heads just weren't in it. Still a great first "half" of the season so hopefully they just put it behind them, rest up and get ready for the next half. Those saying this wouldn't happen under Bowman and are blaming Babcock are being childish. I wouldn't want any other coach in the league and I guarantee he has his team ready to play every game. This game wasn't his fault.
-
Blues just lost in a SO. Preds beat THE CORE and are now tied with them. Detroit can get get a little gap during the all star break with a win here. It would only be a 4 point lead but I'll take it. Should be a tough game but I think Bert will get #300 on a GWG.
-
Howard. No Question. Datsyuk is the only one that could come close but he is doing what he has done every year of his career so I have to go with Jimmy.
-
Could you imagine if some Blues fans were Red Wing fans and watched the past two playoff series against the Sharks? They would commit suicide. I've never seen so much complaining over "officiating directly leading to goals" or just straight up whining about the Wings. All this recent success must be going straight to their heads. Obviously all teams have their good and bad fans but I like to read other teams forums during the season and the Blues fans are not putting on a good showing so far.
-
This is the greatest possible signing after the V-Mart news. I can't wait for April now. Even more than normal. We could be world series contenders for the next couple years let alone next year. Thank you Illitch! Thank you Dombrowski! Welcome to the D Prince!
-
I don't mind Howard being scrappy at all. He can stand up for himself and he isn't afraid to do so. He could complain to refs or media about it but instead he gets physical back. With the Joe chanting his name towards the end he was probably pumped up to get the win. He knows the hometown fans like physical goalies too cprice12, I saw you were saying Howard has a history of "attacking players" on your forum. Such as against Crosby when he was mauling Zetterberg at the end of that game which I'm sure you didn't see from your youtube clips. Or like here when Howard "attacked" Pietrangelo because he didn't like getting socked in the face at the end of a game when they were pushing and shoving back at Howard if not more (grabbing his mask from behind.) Yet you have complaints about Stewart instigating Stuart? Enough Excuses. We'll see you April 4th. And then maybe a month or so after that if you're lucky.
-
I might have to miss the first two periods of this one as well... I have a once a week late class on Mondays but I might be able to sneak out early. It should be another close game so I'll stick with the recent trend and say 3-2 Wings. In regulation though.

1/21 GDT: Blue Jackets 2 at Red Wings 3 (SO)

I like switching Commie and Kindl every now and then. In case anyone goes down with an injury it will be good to have these guys game ready and Commodore has been playing surprisingly well. He hasn't made any glaring mistakes and has seemed to help Ericsson settle down a bit as well. I'd love to see Mursak get back in there though.
