[2/18 GDT: Red Wings 4, Avalanche 0]

well, there is roster room to sign DMac and bring him up

[All-Star Weekend Open Thread]

yeah let's base real season rosters off ASGs... jebus.

[Matthias makes NHL debut tonight...]

Everyone and their uncles wanted Power Forward X last spring.

Bert was the best of the deadline acquisitions, sadly enough, I might add.

Are you people who say "we shouldve traded someone else" sure the Panthers would've taken anything but a "PF" in return for Bert?

[1/17 GDT: Red Wings 3, Canucks 2 (SO)]

I'm not sure Hudlergate has as much to do with Babs disliking Hudler as it got to do with him trying to squeeze something out of the other guys.

wow.. yeah it'd sucked to lose this one, even in a shootout. Good win. Some positive mojo to carry along on the roadtrip.

Edit: Cleary is always everywhere. Definitely hard working with and without the puck.

[1/17 GDT: Red Wings 3, Canucks 2 (SO)]

this is just not fair.

nuckers do nothing and get 2 goals!

[1/17 GDT: Red Wings 3, Canucks 2 (SO)]

whoa awesome Cleary.

Cleary's been our offense in this period, haha.

[1/15 GDT: Thrashers 5, Red Wings 1]

we had some awful losses last season too, lets not forget.

Boston.. argh.

Philly.. argh.

Sharks.. argh.

[1/15 GDT: Thrashers 5, Red Wings 1]

epic fail

[1/15 GDT: Thrashers 5, Red Wings 1]

Note to Babs.. on Thursday, don't dress these guys:

[1/15 GDT: Thrashers 5, Red Wings 1]

really, no goalie save for a cinder block wall could've helped us tonight.

I'm much more concerned with the disarray the skaters are in. can't explain it. they shown fundamentals before christmas.. now it's all gone.

did the return of Homer n Maltby really weaken the team this much?

[1/15 GDT: Thrashers 5, Red Wings 1]

This game is inexcusable. The talent is there, the effort is not. No injuries, we know theres chemistry. The team just didnt show up. No excuses for a loss like this.

I disagree.. the effort is there

The intelligence is not. Why? I cannot tell.

[1/15 GDT: Thrashers 5, Red Wings 1]

I dunno if it got to do with effort really, the players are just on the wrong place all the time. Skating harder doesn't make a difference when you're goin in the wrong direction.

[1/15 GDT: Thrashers 5, Red Wings 1]

Atlanta have been dominating since the first second.

[1/15 GDT: Thrashers 5, Red Wings 1]

the Minny game was awesome, the Wings weren't all bad in that one.

This game they look totally off, being in the wrong spots, pinching at improper moments, fumbling passes, Z had an unforced error etc... yech.

[Sat. Hotstove: Rob Blake to the Wings?]

Blake is much, much better than Stuart ever was.

In fact - Brad Stuart is a _mediocre_ defenseman in this league.

[1/12 GDT: Senators 3, Red Wings 2]

home cooked reffing

[1/12 GDT: Senators 3, Red Wings 2]

ok, work from here... please

[1/12 GDT: Senators 3, Red Wings 2]

Sens have the luxury of the late line change... means they can use their top line in totally different way. Not that it excuses our lame performance

[1/12 GDT: Senators 3, Red Wings 2]

if this game so far is any indication, there is no question who the best team in the nhl is. wings are being completely outclassed. we're lucky it's only 2-0

really?

[1/12 GDT: Senators 3, Red Wings 2]

scratching downey isn't good for the team. just an observation.

[1/12 GDT: Senators 3, Red Wings 2]

i'm not sure getting this PPs now will help, they're not revved up yet. just gonna lower the pace with the man advantage...

[1/12 GDT: Senators 3, Red Wings 2]

oh, you're right... didn't he grow up in Nepean, though?

yes. just born in BC.

[1/10 GDT: Wild 6, Red Wings 5 (SO)]

actually, the Captain himself was one of the least impressive wings out there... and not surprisingly the team lost his defensive game was not A+ last night.

[1/10 GDT: Wild 6, Red Wings 5 (SO)]

oh and not trying to start anything but if your going to continue the pointless bashing you might is well get it right, his name is spelt Samuelson.

It's Samuelsson

[1/10 GDT: Wild 6, Red Wings 5 (SO)]

no you're not supposed to let 5 in on home ice, but other than that I saw excellent hustle and urgency from the Wings. They weren't all synched but had some massive pressure going in the offensive zone and damn near solved Harding more than once. It is what it is. Not even the worst loss of the season. Heck, hardly the worst loss this month (counting the Blues game).
