Just can't beat Rask...

Yes... he did not look impressed at all.

Quincey is a god damn joke... shoot the puck!!! we're lucky its not 3-0 now.. Unreal.

TSN just showed Babs giving it good to Nyquist as he was walkin off the ice at the end of the 2nd...

Dats has looked really terrible out there tonight. He's got to be hurting.

Getting some chances here at least... If we can get one before the end of the period, its not so bad... I hope.

Wasted opportunities right there..

I hear he's training to play soccer in the offseason.

Yeah, to me that's nothing like what Cooke did the other night. That's not a dirty play by Smith, he was just holding his place on the ice as Marchand tried to figure skate around him. From the reverse angle, the knee was out a big from SMith, but he was just trying to avoid contact it looked like.

Another penalty... Please just get Smith off the ice.

Yup. But come one now, its easier to just blame the goaltender. Nevermind Quincey (IIRC) not playing the body, or the puck, and instead just standing there with his stick in his hands like a moron.

Back to the PK... haha.. Awesome... what a terrible call.

It's so hard to watch Franzen consistently turn over the puck... Ridiculous

Exactly. People need to take the homer glasses off, and set their emotions aside. This team at this stage in its growth is nowhere near as good as Boston. Hell, probably half of our lineup tonight started the season in Grand Rapids, and not just started the season there, but likely would have finished it there if its not for all the injuries. Theyre young... its called growing pains, we're not used to it because of the steady line of vets we've rolled through here... its a changing of the guard in Detroit... We're not as good as we like to think, we've been spoiled. It's going to happen all over again though as these kids get more experience, and size, we're going to be that deadly team again, especially up front. On the back end, the D really needs help, it needs a solid vet.

While it's a shot he should have stopped, it was a pretty pathetic defensive effort too. It's easy to blame Howard, I get that, but you cant just stand there as a defenseman... take the body, play the puck, do something other than nothing.

He is playing an outstanding game in net. Sometimes a goalie is just in the zone out there, not sure they should be embarrassed... The officials are the ones that should be embarrassed.

What a terrible call... Legwand hit his stick... not his hands... Not a penalty. Unbelievable that you can get officiating this bad in professional sports as the season winds down and the playoffs are on the line for teams.

In their defense, they are awfully banged up too. Even then, they still do suck.

Nice win tonight, glad we got the shutout for Mrazek, not that he had alot of work tonight, only 14 shots. nice work for him to get called up from GR, to edmonton, and put up a 0. Nicely done.

They are.

Bert!! PP Goal 5-0!

nice little feature by CBC on Tatar there.

Another Wings PP coming up!

Woo!!! Andersson!!! 4-0 Now lets get Mrazek that shutout!

How does the ref... not call the slash to alfie... when its RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM!
