GDT 4/7 GDT : Carolina Hurricanes 2 at Red Wings 3
dicksmack replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
Babcock=overrated. ooooohhh put Pav and Z together with a checker! that'll save us. -
First round playoff exit for sure... oh well...
-
Question: who's afraid to face the Wings in the playoffs? Answer: Nobody.

Neal should spit his chicklets and we take the 4 min penalty...

No you dope... try to follow along... I'm saying that if a team wants to contend, they need to have their lineup intact. A team like the Wings needs to have ALL of their top tier players healthy. EVERYBODY knows Zetterberg has had serious lower back issues and when an opposing team targets that area, you need to send a message to the other teams who would love to see Hank sidelined down the stretch. Doing nothing in this case is unacceptable... More to the point was my comment about Hank and Pav playing embarrassingly bad of late and our lack of scoring. Part of that could be because you have a world class player in Datsyuk playing with a good defensive forward like Helm WTF? SURPRISE we aren't scoring! Babcock is a good coach but he's overrated and doesn't make a change until it's way too late and the game is over.

When you see a scrub like Dubinsky crosscheck Zetterberg across the lower back with impunity after there's no call... why should our "stars" even last till the post season. Dubinsky would have gone for stitches at best if this team had more Canadians on it...When you see Hank and Pav mailing it in and when they DO make a play guys like Tatar flub the gimme pass... you start to know the score.

NO the Wings are NOT close to being a legit contender. Maybe they squeak into the playoffs to keep that streak going but so what?

gdt 12/16 GDT : Blue Jackets 1 at Red Wings 0 (SO)
dicksmack replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
These lines don't have much chemistry of late... let me guess... Babcock will persist with these lines until it's too late and then shuffle them like he did against Toronto... -
Me too
-
Finally seeing Babcock take some initiative and make some aggressive moves like call timeouts and pull the goalie early... 'bout time your overratedness!
-
I really think the salary cap favours markets like NYC, LA, SJ, ANA, COL etc as these are more desirable cities to live in as measured by the climate and in other cases the local tourist economies... regular people pay money just to visit these places, so why wouldn't athletes factor this is in too?

For once Kesler's hands of STONE come in handy... sweet goal Pav -
Not to go heavy on the hubris but I've been saying for YEARS this guy is a bust. The wings spent a 1st round pick on him and couldn't ever face up to their mistake...Everyone knows that the Wings are among the best in the league at recognizing and developing talent and it appears that the hubris vis a vis Kindl is on Kenny here.. no one is infallible... but you gotta get real and move on... I said years ago get something in a trade while he's still worth something... Compare Kindl's arrival in the D after years of mediocrity in the AHL to Dekeyser's immediate poise and impact in the NHL...there's your difference.

injured Weiss out until "at least after Christmas"
dicksmack replied to DatsyukToZetterberg's topic in General
Who cares? buy out his contract lol... -
lol you're both right!

Yeah we missed on our 5 on 3's--gotta make them pay... but dang if the refs didn't help the Sens put it away at the end... pretty obvious too... We have no grit! Where is Brendan Smith and his crazy violence when we need it?
