Detroit # 1 Fan

Team played like s*** and got two points. As someone who is very critical of Jimmy, someone better buy him a beer tonight. He was lights out. Hard to fathom the next time the Wings are in action I'll be at the Joe to see it live for the first time in my life.

The Griffins were down 3-1 to Iowa at one point, but Mantha didn't like that much. They just won 4-3, Coreau is now 3-0 on the season. Callahan has 4 points in the three games as well. Lots of good happening down in GR.

Great game. Love seeing Green score a hat trick, I've thought he's been good since he signed here. (Obviously not great defensively but we knew that) Ericsson still sucks, and Miller is still an elite penalty killer. Let's keep it going on Wednesday!

Vanek and Helm the new Z and D

Hah, I'm gonna be at both games Friday and Saturday. Go figure.

This Saturday?

HAT TRICK MIKE GREEN!

I just saw on twitter, we're halfway to last year's total (8) through three games

I believe with that fighting major we have surpassed last year's fighting total! Congrats Wings. I think we'll see Lou_Siffer posting on the boards again in no time!

And 38% on the draws, I retract my statement. He was bad.

Honta Yo Baby!

He wasn't bad, but no one was any good tonight except for Petr. Tough for any of the fast forwards right now, we can't breakout at all. No speed in our game and we have three of the fastest forwards in the league. Big problem.

Z and Green equally awful on that game ender.

Mrazek makes an INCREDIBLE save, and no defenceman around to clear the crease. Embarrassing.

So, down by a goal under ten minutes to play, and Jeff isn't shortening the bench? That's some coaching right there boy.

Hey, while the Wings struggle to create anything, the guy Blash deemed not good enough for the NHL has another goal for GR tonight. Funny how it goes.

Glendening

Petr keeping us in this thing, as per usual. Better get some push back soon or the bottom is gonna fall out of er.

Well that wasn't good. Defence can't box out, can't block shots, and can't break out very well. A lot of work to be done if we're gonna be any good this season.

Elite Penalty Killer ™ Drew Miller will never be scratched. How Blashill watched the game last night and thought "yeah, Ott was the problem" baffles me. Who was on the ice for both Tampa PP goals? Oh yeah, Miller. (And All Time Great Fourth Line Center ™ Luke Glendening) But it is good that AA is back in, and Dekeyser is with Green. So, progress.

Maybe if we had a guy like Jon Cooper behind the bench, but Jeff prioritizes that compete level and grinding style that only Elite Penalty Killer Drew Miller provides.

I wish I was a Detroit beat writer. I'd just ask Jeff what he thought of Drew Miller every post game, because that grey haired boat anchor stinks. He brings nothing, and he showed it tonight. The advanced metrics showed that with him on the ice, it's actually more likely the other teams PP is going to score. And go ******* figure, what happened tonight? Both PP goals (we lost by two, OH RIGHT) he was on the ice. Petr will keep us competitive. Nielsen and Vanek looked good. Couple of positives from tonight, but not many.

Man, this is accurate. Feels like last April all over again. Not a good thing.

I know right? It's been three years now of this too many men epidemic. The players need to figure it out. Just how DeKeyser drew it up there.

ELITE PENALTY KILLERS DREW MILLER AND LUKE GLENDENING ON THE ICE GANG. How people getting paid millions of dollars believe these players are worth a damn astounds me.
