Lol franzen

Ahh so close

We're in a lot of trouble if we can barely compete with teams like Columbus and Dallas

Low hockey IQ

Yeah murph sounds depressed or something

Lame at franzen for not even trying to hit

Perfectly placed shot, not much he could have done on that

Good energy

The problem with these "facts" are that they only support why the Blues were a more cohesive and prepared team on Saturday. They do not explain why the Wings gave by far the worst performance out of any team playing, both Saturday and Sunday. I watched bits of the majority of games over the last couple days, and the Wings were the only team that looked like they did not belong in the NHL. No other team lost as decisively and by as wide a margin as we did on Saturday. Seriously, the ass-kicking we received on Saturday was magnitudes worse than ass-kickings we've received in recent years (think Islanders, Montreal last year, the 10-3 loss to St. Louis, etc). Even if injecting a few new players into our lineup is the big reason why we sucked so badly, then why didn't other teams suck who had the same problems? Why were Zetterberg and Datsyuk the only players affected this severely from playing overseas, whereas others were not? I didn't watch every part of every game, so maybe someone could point out another team's performance that was as dismal as ours. Of course it's still too early to write this season off, but how anyone can see anything positive about the events on Saturday is beyond me.

St Louis has a pretty intimidating lineup. Hoping for a good game tonight, really looking forward to seeing brunners nhl transition!

Did you guys ever consider that was a shot to get a line change and a faceoff in the ozone?

Got a ton of puck luck that period. Preds made a TON of mistakes with their D and Rinne turning the puck over - they won't keep doing that all game. That was probably the worst period I've seen Nashville play this series

Uh oh angry man is angry

Risky sauce at the blue line

Been in this situation so many times

Just like on lids in the 2nd

Ridiculous hooks on datsyuk. Now the refs won't call it

Hudler shoot it please

If we have to rely on that goal to win, I don't think we deserve to. If we keep playing the way we were at the end of the 2nd, we will find a way to tie it up.

Dats and Lids both missed open nets before our last chance there. No call on the lids hook either

Such a weak call! I'll take it

Good call on that - he could have avoided Rinne

Yes. We lost game 1 because of bad puck luck. We got an early lead in game two because we had good puck luck. We ended the first with a lead, but I thought the Preds should have buried at least one of the many chances they had early on. I would say luck was definitely on our side in game 2. Our defense gives up way too many chances, too many odd man rushes, turnovers, etc. We could have easily been playing catch-up the whole game and came up too short just like we have been recently. White and Emmerton score for us? And Franzen with a lucky one, although none of these goals were as lucky as the Preds' in game 1. I think we can take this series in 6, but it's way too close for comfort with our defensive lapses and our top lines not producing.

Damnit I have a game in half an hour and I'm sure someone at the rink will spoil what happened before I get home to finish watching!!!

Jesus, flyers come back again too, crazy Oop spoke too soon!
