I appreciate the thought put into this, as I agree the Wings could use some grit up front but it needs to be with size and skill. However, Setoguchi on this list is enough to make one put on the LOLlerskates while driving the ROFLcopter. He dove more in one playoff series then the IJN kamikaze air corps did in all of WWII. That said, Hanzal would be a nice add, but I really don't think PHX lets him walk. Z. Smith would be interesting. I didn't see much of him in OTT, but when I saw him playing for the B-Sens I liked what I saw. I don't know if Dirty Harry is Holmstrom 2.0, or if there ever will be one. Homer was an absolute beast in front of the net, with a GPS like ability to park outside the line and stay there, though they'd just call him for farting into the crease. The Wings should have him mentor a few players on how to front the net. Who better to learn from?

Be smart Abs. BTW, I really wish I had the FSD feed here.

Great effort by Helm. Bruins throwing shots when the puck is nowhere near.

Good D by Smith to foil the odd man rush there.

They definitely should play Smith there.

I guess the Cooke suspension covers the firat round for all teams.

But... there are no leafs in the playoffs.

Sign Dimitri Mironov back for a game to fire a slapper into his chest. The guy has no class.

Pavel! Just got in from a pit rehearsal to see that beauty! Gustavsson in? Howard hurt or just because he was weak in games 2 and 3?

Just got in from a rehearsal where there was no wifi. What's the short version of the recap? Thanks in advance.

Seriously awesome GDT, Flashy! Well done. Let's Go Wings!

You mean bring back Dmitri Mironov to take slappers at their chests and Marian Hossa to give them the Berard treatment? I don't think it's necessary. Everybody should have expected the Bruins to come out hard today, and their shenanigans shouldn't have surprised anyone. Howard's giveaway just set the tone for the B's to dominate, and the quick second goal after a complete defensive breakdown just added fuel to their fire. The fourth goal was also weak, IMHO. Howard still made some great saves, but they lost this game in the first. The anemic PP compounded the issue. Nobody should have expected the Wings to cone out of Boston up 2-0. Few people beforehand would have given them a shot at the split. If the PP actually converts in the 1st or 2nd it's a completely different game. I'll take the split. Regroup and come out for game three focused and ready to play. The Sunday afternoon on NbC malaise has been evident all season. It's a best of 5 now.

Good comparison, imho.

And the Bruin hits Kindl after the icing whistle. They're going to completely goon it up.

They call a rough on Quincey, but that was nothing compared to stuff the Bruins have done all game. Weak goal. Howard should have had that.

Subtle interference by Abdelkader, I guess.

Plus, Nyquist's surge has him on everybody's radar, he isn't going to surprise anybody in the playoffs.

Put Smith on the PP with Kronwall.

Power play does nothing, and they get one. Nice cross ice feed, gotta give credit.

If the PP was good, this would be a blowout. They've got to convert, since they'll be looking to give the Bruins a couple in the third.

Not everyone. Cue the Lost Boys.

Keep this pressure. Rask is ready to give up a couple.

He got it a lot quicker than his first regular season goal, maybe he's going to break out.

Under review, Edzo actually saying it looks good.

Glendening! Helm banked it off him. Good hustle by Miller to start the play.
