    ECQF Game 3 GDT : Lightning 0 at Red Wings 3 - DET Leads series 2-1

    Abby made his presence felt. Petr has taken the reigns. Defense stood up. Awesome game!

    Sharks & McLellan part ways

    I choose Babcock over everyone except John Wooden.
  3. St. Petr! Nice to win a game like that... we have lost our share of games where we dominated the way Tampa did tonight. Still, the PK was legit and the defense stepped up... Have to keep Smitty on the bench, though that turnover of Zidlicky made me want to break my tv. Hope we get Abby back soon. YES! He's Draper 2.0. AND, you have to give it to Babs... he called this. He said right away that Glenny could play and would be a player in the NHL.

    Red Wings' playoff lines and priorities

    You separate Pav and Z at the start and play a tight checking defensive game... especially on the road where TB gets the last change, makes sense to separate them for matchups. If we take the lead, keep em separated... we need a goal late 2nd or the 3rd, they get put back together. Depends on the situation. But that's not the worry. Defensive zone turnovers are the worry.

    Marchenko to play Game 1 in the playoffs

    I've defending Smitty many times, but the last two months he has been a liability. We cannot turnover the puck and make bonehead plays the way he has been against an offense like TB. Marchenko is the more solid option IMO... WHO STARTS IN GOAL? Babs said he has his mind already made up, and the boys on Fox Sports Net seems to think that means it's Howard. I disagree... I hope it's Mrazek

    2/23 GDT : Red Wings 3 at Ducks 4 (SO)

    that second period was one of the best periods we've played this year. Howard was real shaky in the third... man alive. 1 point here feels like a loss... Is it too late to tank it?

    2/21 GDT : Red Wings 7 at Dallas Stars 6 (OT)

    first of all, TANK IT. secondly, what happened to Z? I stepped away for a couple minutes and when I came back he was gone.

    Do we need a trade to get our offence going ?

    I think the price will be too high to a get a player that will actually make us better in the short term. I like our team as is... well, I would like Nick to come out of retirement for the playoffs.

    Mrazek was bad... awful. Bringing up Marchenko should be interesting. "We like our team" - KH

    Howard looks helpless out there in the shootout... sad. Thank God there's no shootout in the playoffs

    Jimmy sucks in a shootout Howard

    Every time we go to the shootout with Howie I expect to lose... I hate the shootout regardless and wish it was eliminated. Bring back ties, or make a win in regulation worth 3 points! That's neither here nor there/ I would have brought Mrazek off the bench for sure. Sucks losing a game we dominated... but we dominated and that's important. Still have best record in East
