WCF Game 6 (5/22) GDT: Red Wings @ Ducks - 9 PM ET
puckloo39 replied to aflac9262's topic in General
you cannot be that desperate. I hate baseball, even though I grew up going to Cardinals games all summer long. It's boring on TV. Oh, goody, Mule's in the box now. Here come the Yucks, look out, Dom!! -

yep, join me down here in low-expectation land. I said that several pages ago, that I hope they don't shut themselves out tonight. I may not get my wish, sadly. Gotta get a shot on goal in order to score, and that is not happening... -

folks, we have 12 shots on goal for the game, and not one was a challenge to any NHL goalie, never mind Padboy. Versus is in heaven because they get to say Giguere every other sentence. Hasek stopped more than that in the first period. I think I see the problem here. The Wings are beating themselves, and I am in shock. Where is the team that took it to Calgary and SJ? -

I think everyone saw that coming, it was just a matter of time with the Wings allowing the Ducks to hammer and hammer and hammer at Dom. And getting zero shots on the PP. I can't believe they are just going to quit and let it end this way. -

I do believe we are done, kids... I hate to say it, but I don't see anyone who's going to step up and do anything here. Dom has done his best. -

if we get a couple more PP's we can just let the Ducks wear themselves out clearing the puck every other time the Wings touch it. -

there not really any point in saying it again, but Dom's the only one who showed up so far... he's giving them every chance, but it's a matter of time with the Ducks on the attack constantly, it is a matter of time before it's 2-0. If the Wings don't score on this PP... At least get a shot on goal, willya?? Please???? -

Dom can't play any bigger for them. The Wings HAVE to step up or else... -

and we get nothing on the PP, again. Great save, Dom. Good thing he came to play tonight, perhaps he can score us a goal, too? -

PP Wings, please get a SOG, boyz... and don't let them clear the puck 14 times in a row -

yep to what you said. I've pointed out several times that all of this year's Vezina candidates are now golfing, and Dom, who was ignored despite his numbers, is still going. Everyone ignores me, but it's the truth... No goalie is ever good enough for Detroit, even when they're winning, so I don't worry about it too much when fans say they want Dom gone. Holland's already said he wants Dom and Cheli back. If they want to play again, I bet you see them both next season. -

puckloo39 replied to aflac9262's topic in General
thanks. saved me the trouble of looking that up. Is it me, or can the Wings not hold onto the puck tonight? The Yucks take it away everytime a Wings touches the puck, so it's no wonder we have only 7 shots. I was hoping they would make Giggy's life miserable tonight, but so far, he's coasting... Please don't shut yourselves out, Wings!! I cannot stand the idea of having to watch Pronger for another series. Versus crew is complimenting Hasek. Hell just froze over.... -

indeed it was. They can't hang onto the puck long enough to shoot it at Paddy. -

have we gotten a shot on this PP at all? -

puckloo39 replied to aflac9262's topic in General
I am sorry to say, we don't look good at all. I know it's early, but aside from the one (correct) non-call, our vibe's not so great. They can't let the lucky bounce goal take the starch out of them. I will be very unhappy if this game ends up a 1-0 loss. -

to make it worse, versus shows Pronger smirking after the goal. Gross... Get it back, boyz!!! Let's go, Red Wings!!! -

the board's not working for me. Someone check that net and make sure there isn't a hole where the stick was caught. It wouldn't surprise me to see a puck go through and the Ducks will get a goal from it... -

we can't keep the puck... Homer was trying too hard. Bad time for a penalty... Save, Hasek!! Huge save on that one. Duck in the box now... -

It won't surprise me (or anyone else here, really) if such things go "unnoticed" again tonight -- how was this not goalie interference? Can you imagine the weeping and wailing if a Wing did this to Giggy and got away with it?? Anyway, Go Red Wings!! You can overcome all of this and be victorious!!! Hoo-rah!!! -

here's hoping the whole game doesn't look like this from Hasek's perspective. Notice the refs and their whistles are absent as usual in this pic. -
Hasek has 6 more Vezinas than Giguere and his big ol' pads will ever have. End of story. Any hockey fan who posts that Hasek is not talented is delusional, or perhaps just a severe homer blinded by love of his/her own goaltender. Giguere isn't beating the Wings, the Wings are beating themselves, and the bad bounces are not helping. I'll stop short of saying officiating is involved since the Ducks have had their share of bad calls as well. Giggy's not all that good, but we sure are making his life easy, shooting pucks at his giant chest protector all the time. Of course, he's made a few really great saves -- he'd have to in order to get to where he is in the NHL. Cloutier, he is not. The press (being butt-stupid) print that because Giggy got his large self in front of 30+ shots, he's the reason the Ducks win by 1 goal. It's just hype. And not true. Get Giggy moving, Wings. He can't stop what he can't get to, and he's not that great at lateral movement. Hasek on the other hand, has no problem with it... being that he relies on all that flashy diving stuff and all. :rotflmao:

Welcome, glad you could join us, Tom. Be sure and come into the game day thread tonight, if you can. Are you able to watch the game tonight? I am feeling good about the game, not overconfident, but sure that the Wings will do everything they can to win it. They can't control the refs or bad bounces, but they can play hard on the powerplays and watch the brain-cramps out there. As several of the veterans have said repeatedly, it's the little things that need improvement. All it takes in this series is a tiny advantage here and there, and having a Red Wing in the right place to capitalize on the mistake. They can do this!

love the Yoda quotes, that used to be my sig at one time. I woke up this morning, not worried about the Wings. I am confident that the Wings will prevail and I am minus the usual stomach ache and anxiety - I believe in them so much. Then, I read the Det News this morning and see the Wings are also quietly confident, planning to just play their game. Honestly, if they win or lose, it's going to come down to a bounce or a call, one way or the other, and they can't control those factors. So, just play hard, boys, and good things will happen. I love my Red Wings!!
