If I remember correctly, the Wings played a sloppy game 6 in Anaheim in 2007, but came out flying in the third. I'm calling for that again, except this time, it'll be enough for the W.

But it hasn't stopped the Ducks from potting 2 goals. The Wings are simply too fancy with the puck, given the ice conditions tonight.

That requires that you actually have to be in gear. The Wings are in neutral right now, idling.

I'm honestly shocked and disappointed at the level of professionalism shown in this game. You can talk all you want about luck, but we all know you have to be good to be lucky, and you have to make your own luck a lot of the time. The Wings have no work ethic tonight. Thats sad, considering the potential impact this game has on our season. The sad thing is, the Ducks aren't even playing well! But they're out-hustling the Wings in every facet of the game, and thats all that it takes. I'm calling for Datsyuk to either score a pair, or set up a few goals. I'm gonna say 1G, 2A from Datsyuk in the next period alone. Hope I'm right. Filppula with the empty-netter.

The Wings deserve every bit of this one-sided score. That said, I still feel like the Wings are coming back from this one.

This game is a bucket of fail.

Haha, a lot of speechless folks on this board. Come to think of it, thats a paradoxical phrase if there is one..

Actually, I thought Sammy looked like one of the better guys out there. Hes actually moving his feet. The Hudler-Helm-Sammy line has actually been our best tonight.

HOW DID THAT NOT GO IN?? Oh my god, Filppula, I was sure that was in.

What the f*** is Niedermayer doing?

Datsyuk is going to break out tonight. I can feel it.

This game is dumb.

Its amazing how many rebounds Hiller gives up that his defense clears away. He is ridiculously overrated.

Of the bar for Hank.

Where are our forwards? Dicking around in the offensive zone without the puck? The Wings literally look liek they don't want to be here. They look so tired.

What the hell is Kronwall thinking with his passes? Kronwall needs to pick up his game in pretty much every way through the next 35 minutes. Hes sucked this series.

Awesome.

Kronwall, Stuart and Ericsson are better than you, and have been all playoffs. Contemplate that thought for a bit.

I've been trying to look at things pretty objectively all series, and for the most part, when it comes to penalties, I've thought its been pretty balanced both ways. But that series of events just blew my mind. Datsyuk is mauled for a good 30 seconds, and no call. And then RYAN has his stick parallel to the ice - an easy hooking call in today's NHL - and Filppula gets a holding penalty? That ones over my head, for sure..

Haha, way to call holding on that, with all the other crap going on.

This is crazy. Both teams look tired.

The Ducks crowd is pathetic. I don't want to hear anyone bash the Joe ever again. You'd think this game was being played in front of an empty arena.

Hudler has a penchant for taking bad penalties in potential series-clinching games. That said, Rafalski needs to move that puck more quickly.

Yup. The ice looks bad. Hopefully no silly plays. Keep the puck moving forward.

The Ducks arena is SILENT.
