Heroes of Hockeytown

Jesus Christ, Datsyuk is so good.

C'mon Nick, you can do better than that. But mysterious power play out of nowhere.

Argh, why did they put that disk into that open frame! They hadn't been doing it before but now that they have they must be being punished for it, because I'm being assaulted by all these blaring horns and flashing lights! Make it stop!

Ctrl+F Bertuzzi Phrase not found :o

A wild hockey team has appeared. Use master ball.

Haha, Helm is great. Oops, passed it out of my teammate's reach, guess I'll just go get it myself. He always gets the Wings started when they start slow, great work on that shift.

What's with all these turnovers? Play hockey you jerks.

Power play still in a funk. Next time get Datsyuk's line out there first.

That was a rough shift for Kindl, turnovers everywhere. Nearly another from Ericsson, just offside.

Man, it's great to see Pavs out there. Hockey is no fun without him in it.

I agree. Being shutout in back to back games definitely sucks, but at the end of the day it's just a two game losing streak, that's nothing in hockey. I'd be dollars to donuts they win on Monday, but even if not, a three game streak is only when I begin to start feeling concerned. There are issues with the defense and goaltending, but when you look back on it there were in 2009 as well, but it turned out they were just waiting for the playoffs. It's annoying how by saving themselves for the postseason we end up with a lot of half-assing on a lot of nights, but you can't argue with the results, which you laid out up there. If they get their asses kicked in the playoffs again and end up with a billion goals against then it might be time to think about changes; changes that are coming anyways whether we like it or not since Nick and Rafalski's time is almost up.

Well that was certainly the most horrendous, boring, s***ty, unentertaining, f***awful game I've seen in a long time. If someone were trying to get me into hockey by showing me this game, I would actively devote the rest of my to campaigning against it. If this was the first broadcast alien visitors received upon approaching Earth, they would have no choice but to begin the extermination of mankind. This game is proof that we are all being slowly digested by an amoral universe.

The Red Wings radical new strategy of trying to win hockey games without scoring goals has not yet yielded the desired results.

And the fans get to be propeller guy.

Everything about this game is as dumb as possible and could never be good. It should be stricken from the record books and wiped from the memories of everyone who saw it.

Hank finds new and exciting ways to miss the net.

This game makes my teeth itch.

Kronwall don't need to honor no defensive responsibilities.

It's been ugly. Helm hit the crossbar on a shorthanded breakaway in the first, and that pretty much constitutes the lot of the Wings' scoring chances in this game.

This is the most thorough ass-kicking they've received so far this season. I don't think they've touched the puck once tonight.

Well there's your dagger.

Hudler is doing his part to slow the Nashville onslaught.

Whether or not that's a goal, please put this on and go sit in the corner, Brian.

Honest to god, I've never seen a worse 5-on-3.
