What I mean by "what he's done" is lying to Favre that he was going to get him playmakers this season. I agree that TT has done a good job of building for the future, but he lied to Favre simply so the team would finish the upcoming season around 8-8 instead of 4-12, and he could keep his job. I wouldn't respect Holland if he lied to a guy like Yzerman, and I don't respect Thompson for lying to Favre. The fact of the matter is, Favre will not be on the Packers when their turnaround hits (2-3 seasons from now), so its in the best interest of the team to use the quarterback of the future right now so that they are comfortable with the team around them 2-3 seasons from now. One of two things should have happened this offseason: (1) TT should have added a couple players and go for the playoffs with Favre or (2) TT should have had the stones to tell Favre they aren't going for it this year, and they are going to draft the way they did, thus making Favre's decision easy. Neither of these two happened, and now you've frustrated the best quarterback that ever put on the green & gold. Sorry, back on topic.

If the Wings come out firing like they have in both Game 5's of this playoff year, they'll be fine. You know Dom will come back with a strong game, he always does.
-
Obviously, but that was the entire point of that last sentence: _______________________________________________________________ Again, because it wasn't a matter of creating something. Every single line that was out there in the third period was creating opportunities. They just didn't *finish*.
-
The other lines did create something. That wasn't the problem last night. The problem was that the Wings didn't *finish*. It didn't matter what lines were on the ice.

Round 2 Standings: Post your picks for Round 3 here please! Make sure they are in before Thursday (5-10) at 7:00 ET. West: (1) Detroit Red Wings vs. (2) Anaheim Ducks East: (1) Buffalo Sabres vs. (4) Ottawa Senators NOTICE: If you are going to copy and paste your picks please copy the following example and use it as a guide: DET/ANA - *Winner Team Name & Series score* BUF/OTT - *Winner Team Name & Series score* For those of your that don't remember the rules, I have posted them below: Each round you will pick a winner for each series. For every correct series winner you predict, you will receive 5 points (0 if you pick the incorrect team). Also to aid with tiebreakers you will also pick how many games the losing team in each series will win. Given that the team you picked to win actually does win the series, you will then have the opportunity to receive up to 3 bonus points. For every game you are off for the losing teams actual win total, I will subtract 1 bonus point. After each round, every player will then pick again based on the teams the made through to the next round. Whoever has the most points at the end of the season, wins Playoff bragging rights. If any of your are confused, I'll do a mock picks example: NFM#25's Mock Picks Detroit 4-2 over Calgary Anaheim 4-3 over Minnesota Vancouver 4-3 over Dallas San Jose 4-2 over Nashville Buffalo 4-1 over NYI New Jersey 4-1 over Tampa Bay Atlanta 4-3 over NYR Ottawa 4-3 over Pittsburgh Let's say this happened in the first round: Detroit won 4-3 over Calgary Minnesota won 4-3 over Anaheim Vancouver won 4-3 over Dallas San Jose won 4-3 over Nashville Buffalo won 4-0 over NYI NJ won 4-1 over Tampa Bay NYR won 4-3 over Atlanta Ottawa won 4-0 over Pittsburgh Here's how my point total would work out: DET/CAL = 5 Points + 2 Bonus Points ANA/MIN = 0 Points VAN/DAL = 5 Points + 3 Bonus Points SJ/NSH = 5 Points + 2 Bonus Points BUF/NYI = 5 Points + 2 Bonus Points NJ/TB = 5 Points + 3 Bonus Points NYR/ATL = 0 Points OTT/PIT = 5 Points + 0 Bonus Points Total first round score: 42

And if the Wings did that, you don't think Carlyle would have countered with Niedermayer-Beauchemin along with Rob's shutdown line every time that line took the ice? By spreading out the talent, it created a ton of opportunities because the Ducks best defensive lines couldn't be out there all the time. The only offensive problem last night was that they didn't *finish*. 9 times out of 10, the Wings would have buried 2-3 more goals with the opportunities they had last night. It was just an unlucky night. If the Wings play at the level they did last night throughout the next couple games, this series will more than likely end in 6.

The Ducks may have been comfortable in the Wings zone last night, but they sure as hell weren't in Game 3. The fact of the matter is a few mistakes and poor 5-on-3 play cost the Wings this game. What I've continued to realize more and more as these playoffs wear on, is this team thrives on adversity. Last night, was a great example of our boys making things more difficult on themselves, but since the playoffs started, they continue to thrive after a tough loss. This is the type of bad loss that drives Dom nuts, and as long as I've seen him play, I've noticed that he comes back and is a wall after a game like last night. I seriously expect to see him shutting the door come Sunday afternoon. If there's one thing I'm comfortable with when it comes to Dom, its that when everything is on the line, he plays his best, and this playoff year, that seems to ring true for the rest of the Wings.

I now understand what you Lions fans are going through. I'm going to start the "Fire Thompson" trend in Green Bay this season after what he's done to this team. Sidenote: I love the fact that "Fire Millen" continues to pop up in arena after arena.
-
If the Wings lose a game, you can bank on LGW being filled with hate threads. Its the way it works here. It's lame, but I've gotten to the point where I know I'll be annoyed coming here the day after a loss. Once again, it rings true.

NFM#25 owns this town! -
After how well Dom has been this entire season, this could rank up there as one of the most ridiculous threads of the year. I have nothing to say to this other than you clearly are a bandwagon jumper.

WCF Game 4 GDT (5/17): Red Wings @ Ducks - 9 PM ET
NeverForgetMac25 replied to aflac9262's topic in General
Oh well. The Wings have been tied in their series 2-2 in both of the previous series'. Might as well keep the streak alive. If all follows suit, it should be a dominating 4-1 win for our boys on Sunday. -

How is it that people still post like this after what the Wings have continually done since the playoffs started? -
