Probably because it would be moronic to put Eave on Datsyuk's win. I love the guy, but he isn't the prime candidate to play on the same line with a guy like Dats.

Have you SEEN Franzen so far this season?

Like I said before, go BFFs!

And we will leave it at that. Now time for this thread to sink to the depths of the forum. Lets hope we get a celebratory thread for the Dallas GDT.

If someone is standing in front of you with their legs apart, would it be as difficult to see a ball two feet in front of them as it would be to see a person's chest at that same distance? Whatever you say. You believe you cannot logically infer certain things from different angles, and I believe you can. Still I will maintain that even without that red line Howard saw the puck. I also never said Janik was invisible, which is why I said you can safely infer Howard didn't see Jones's elbow with Janik in the way. But there is a lot more visible below Janik's waist than above. Janik isn't a six foot box.

Once again, you rant and rave about how Howard didn't see the shot, but why? What leads you to believe Howard couldn't see that? Cause you just thought so? I see a camera angle and see that Howard likely saw the puck through Janik's legs. You see a camera angle, think it i inconclusive to anything, and make your opinion. Cute, but meaningless. Though with the line you drew we can infer that Howard likely didn't see Jones's elbow due to Janik being in front of him. Yeah, it proves Janik is standing in front of him but that doesn't automatically cause Howard to be unable to see anything that is in front of him at that point.

Shows it to be more likely that Howard saw the puck than not, however. That's what I said. Now could you kindly cut out the sarcasm and attempts to attack and give me a reason why you think Howard was screened?

Yeah, we could always just make statements without ANYTHING to back them up. That sounds better. Do you honestly think the view distorts that actual sight line so much that it raises up an entire foot?

Eh. I would have liked Howard to bounce back, but I understand what Babs is doing. Go Ozzie.

Can you honestly consider it a screen when the only thing that could be blocking Jimmy's view of the puck is Janik's legs?

Psh. You wish.

Indeed. Go BFFs!

It's okay because Brad May won't be playing. No more #1 fights for you.

I agree with this. Datsyuk had Budaj beat but the puck rolled on him and he couldn't get it up (that's what she said).

I think Osgood can still do fine without starting every other game. Howard should start next. Bouncing back with a shutout in Dallas would be good for him.

No, I like to discuss things on this board. Strange, isn't it. For starters, I blamed multiple parties other than Howard way before you even came into the mix. Check my edit. Me saying derp derp was meant to highlight the fact you seemed to be missing the post that discussed how multiple players were at fault. And just because I gave Howard s*** in a post doesn't mean I think Howard is the only one at fault. I never once said he was. Read the edit times. I elaborated before you quoted me. And the bolded is blatantly false. That is a boldfaced lie. Also getting angry at one player in one post does not mean I believed at the time he was the only one at fault. I just got angry at him first. But of course this is all moot because I ELABORATED BEFORE YOU INITIATED CONVERSATION WITH ME. Tada.

It's a hot and cold type of event, which i why it is so useless when it comes to determining what TEAM wins a game. Give me sudden death overtime until we find a winner. Now THAT would be entertaining.

Man take a look at that clip and compare it to him now. He was such a little guy back then.

I was going to discuss this further but this response really is ridiculous. If you are going to stop posting, then stop. Don't pretend to be on your high horse and bait someone like this. That in itself is petty. YOU are the one who got defensive from the get go. I stated my opinion (and I was pissed because watching Howard let in those goals made me think "really? You are better than that"). After letting out my "God dammit Howard" I stated the game overall. How you were able to go two pages without understanding that is beyond me. Continue if you want, or don't. That is up to you and I really don't care if you feel like ending the discussion. I personally like to talk about the game and talk about it a lot here because the people that I converse with in the real world aren't as devoted to the Wings as I am. Nothing about that i petty. That is what these boards are for.

You broke my irony meter. My narrow view? You haven't proven my view is wrong. You even agreed that Howard didn't play well. I never said that, but thanks for playing. The second goal was weak. The third bounced off his shoulder and in on the short side. The fourth went right in hi five hole. Those are all potential weak goals. The issue is you addressed my first post and IGNORED my exanded one when it came to discussing my "narrow minded" view of the game.

Saying I'm bitching isn't stating my opinion is wrong. It is an attempt to discredit me and attack me simply because I have a much more negative opinion than you. Since when was blaming someone on one post then elaborating on the entire game later on BS? Honestly you are attempting to pick at one post while another one had a much broader opinion of the entire game. He is a reason and if he had been better the team could have won. Soft goals like that can kill a team, and that happened tonight. Also I'm not being melodramatic. I'm stating who sucked tonight. I'm not going to be like Mindfly or GMR and talk about how this team is so weak and we will be lucky to make the playoffs. I'm calling it how I see it.

I can state my opinion on this board. Just because it goes after Howard doesn't make it bitching. I didn't say the team is doomed, or that we might as well tank, or Howard is going to be the ruin of this team. Just that tonight he sucked. HEAD FOR THE HILLS SOMEONE MADE A NEGATIVE COMMENT ABOUT OUR GOALIE! Howard took the wind out of Detroit's sails. Sorry if that offends you but he was not good. At all. Does that in itself mean I think the Wings played awesome? Not at all. The team was pretty bad. And I stated that afterwards. One post doesn't make someone's entire opinion on a game.

You mean this one? Derp derp.

It was. I edited my post to include your "oh you gotta blame Janik too" comment. Ask a mod if you are so intent on catching me in my "edit" (though I'm not sure what that would prove). (Check the times of my edit and your responding post too)
