no it's not. they've played horrible hockey for the last two months.

me too

at this point i wouldn't care if holland traded any of our guys (except datsyuk)

that had more to do with the cavs than the pistons. although i'm pretty sure the cavs could snap their losing streak if they played (hockey) against the wings.

they are...

wait, that was datsyuk who was being stupid there??? WTF?

this team is seriously defective

they lost it two years ago

so, holland is going to trade hudler for a back-up goalie?

i'll agree that he's playing better than he did last year. but that shouldn't be too difficult to do, should it? i think the problem here with E is that he has to learn how to do that without taking penalties. i've seen him try to be aggressive but to me it always looks like he's swinging wildly at the guy and is going to take a penalty. he's certainly big enough to play that style but he needs to learn how first. i don't think anyone knows why kindl is on the PP. sometimes i think his slapshot tops out at 75mph. he's probably there because babs doesn't trust E to actually BE at the point on the PP. anyways, i didn't mean to single out ericsson. i realise that he's a bottom-pairing guy and he gets paid like one so you can't expect a lidstrom-like performance from him. it's just that there are times when he looks confused out there and it's frustrating to watch.

alright, let's make it ericsson :thumbdown: and rafalski :thumbdown: it's not like either one of them knows how to play D properly. you're right about rafalski being weak around the net though. the guy looks totally clueless out there. not to mention the turnovers. when is stuart coming back? these d-pairings suck big time

you forgot to add rafalski ericsson :thumbdown: also, kindl should be

i think it was edzo that said it

so, any predictions on who finally breaks the SO streak? doesn't have to be this game, or month, or even this season, but eventually someone will score... right? i'll go with draper

when he got hurt they said he would be out 4-5 weeks. it's been six and a half weeks, so i don't think they are rushing him back. i doubt the wings brass is panicking that much over the two SO losses like everyone on LGW is.

you should make a thread about this

ahhhhhhh... those were the days, eh?

they do, but the last time he was involved in a fight he almost killed someone so...

well, he didn't talk about that in the clip. anyways, i don't care about either team and it just felt like ovechkin summarised what i wanted to say on this topic.

jake ryan?
