    I think they need to shake it up and put Z on the third line... Nyquist and Helm better step up, if they don't want to book tee times. Abby is a beast... Wing for life, I hope!

    Q is probably hurt... sprained his beard, perhaps. Wings will win this one, I think. If they are not embarrassed and ANGRY about the stupidity of the last game in particular - from the officiating to their own bone-headedness - they really don't stand a chance. I am not bashing Blashill as the total reason they are so ... well, bad. The players have the responsibility out there on the ice. Mrazek will have a LOT to prove tonight... I am squarely in his corner and in Jimmy's as well. The losses in Tampa were certainly not on Jimmy. Challenge is out for Nyquist and Tatar - if he's playing - to show up! Now or never, Wings. Thank you for the GDT, Mikey. LGRW!!!!

    ECQF Game 2 Post-GDT: at Tampa Bay 5, Red Wings 2

    Headline: "Justin Abdelkader: Detroit Red Wings Player Attacks Tampa Bay Lightning's Mike Blunden in Line Brawl" http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/red-wings-abdelkader-cross-line-attack-blunden/ I was glad to see Abby kinda lose it. About time - Larkin and Richards were both targeted, Datsyuk lost a tooth three feet from an official (shrug...) Should Abby face supplemental discipline? Hell, no. It's hockey, not a prom. The Blots players piled on him, and Abby fought back. Love how the Bolts are lily-white and oh-so-innocent. No wonder Stevie Y won't show his face.

    Put Mrazek in next game... it could really hardly be any worse. And bring up Mantha.

    LOL @ Blots fans shouting "Refs, you suck" I don't think I care to know exactly what the refs are sucking....

    the NBC crew talks about Stamkos more than any Wings player... and he's not playing. Dats penalty was because he got his teeth knocked out... .I give up

    TB fans are big fat babies... and their Big Fat Goalie is scared of our baby. Good.

    CNBC is unabashedly pro-Tampa Bay. I was thinking since I can't see FSD and my favorite homer announcers (Ken and Mick) that at least I wouldn't have to watch TB homers. I was wrong about that.

    Pierre is talking about Bolts who are not even playing.. .so desperate to blather about the other team is he...

    OK, I was deprived of hockey on Wednesday - out of town working in Omaha... and no way to watch. So the Wings were sad, and didn't win... but they tried. I am home and get to watch tonight. Having sacrificed another bit of my so-called sanity and not being able to see Game One - the hockey gods owe me a big W here tonight. Let's go Wings - take it home tied up, then keep going!! LGRW!!

    Vote for your favorite tacky GDT!

    wow.. that was a difficult choice, all of them are disgustingly charming in their own right... the lines in Contestant #1... pure brilliance and hilarity. You're all amazingly ridiculous and I love you.
  22. Well, we don't know that for a fact, with his injury issues. Contracts don't seem to mean as much, when money isn't really the issue, it seems. Agreed on Larkin, but I think it will go to Abby or another veteran if Z hangs them up sooner.
  23. I am enjoying the discussion and ideas here... It's not over yet. I am waiting for the end of the Wings' run for the Cup -- ideally, with a Cup! -- until I get too overwhelmed here. Stranger things have happened, and he might stay to play out his contract. Z will retire, too, and then we have a whole new ball game (puck game, what have you).
  24. this is just me, but I think we will be fine after a rather large elephant in the room is addressed. Who will be Captain when Z retires, which will be shortly after Datsyuk leaves -- if in fact he does leave and doesn't honor the rest of this $7.5M hit. Z is aging and injured and won't survive without his EuroTwin. Nyquist plays like a ghost when Pasha is out there. It's time for him and the younger players to establish an identity on the ice and play Wings hockey. Haven't seen that in a while -- it is time for a change, even if it hurts like Hell to do it. What I have been looking at is a team with two identities, and they do not communicate well. Time to put the sign back: To whom much is given, much is expected. This is Hockeytown.
  25. Wings will be OK. Life goes on. Nyquist will come into his own and we will be fine. Have a nice life, Pasha, we love you endlessly.
