Hockeytown authentics is not really authentic
MabusIncarnate replied to HIFI_canadian's topic in Water Cooler
Exactly, true authentic Reebok jerseys are made in both Canada and Indonesia. It is absolutely authentic believe it or not, I could see where your concern comes from but what you received is a true and real Reebok jersey. It's not the problem of "Hockeytown Authentics" because it's where Reebok has their official jerseys made, the information that they are only made in Canada is incorrect. They are advertising it and selling it properly. -
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all the great fans here on the best Red Wings fan site on the internet. I thank and appreciate all the hard work that Matt does, the rest of the site moderators, our regular GDT creators, and the ongoing support from the posters that fill the boards with opinions and knowledge. It's a brilliant community and I wish everyone a safe and happy day. Let's bring in the new year with healthy players and lots of wins, GO RED WINGS!!

I can see this being a big part of sports future. I mean they can put impressively functioning cameras with video in cell phones that weigh next to nothing and would fit snug into a helmet without adding additional weight or interfering with that players mobility. I think what holds it back is television and censorship, you can't ask players to watch their mouths but you can't have F bombs being dropped on live television on public channels either. In my mind, this is likely why we haven't seen more stuff like this during games, as great as it would be and even make the shootout a bit more interesting with player and goalie-eye views of it going down. I'd be happy with them bringing back the glow puck but i'm easy to please. It was kinda like watching Tron hockey.

Injured Ericsson out 3-5 weeks with Fractured Ribs
MabusIncarnate replied to HockeytownRules19's topic in General
I really don't remember a season when injuries were THIS bad. I mean there have been a few rough stretches in recent memory but not to this capacity. This is yet another respectable quality player not on the squad for an extended period of time, and long term it's really going to damage this teams chances of making playoffs this year unless something improves fast. -
Not likely, i'm not a huge football fan but I find myself watching a lot of Falcons/Titans because of geography. Neither are Denver, Seattle, or Kansas City. The person below me wants to buy an Islanders jersey just to burn it.

GDT 12/23 GDT : Islanders 3 at Red Wings 0
MabusIncarnate replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
The way we have been playing this season I expect Florida, New York and Philly to be auto-losses because they are the least threatening. Likely will win 3 of 4 against Los Angeles, St. Louis and Chicago and the rest will be a crap shoot. -

Look on the bright side, we are only on a 1 game losing streak right now.. We need to get healthy, bottom line. This is getting painful to watch, pun sort of intended. -

MabusIncarnate replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
He also led the league in blocked shots if I remember correctly. The Rangers have been pretty bad as a whole the past couple of seasons, while some of it falls on his shoulders I think the team's bad play reflects on that more than his individual performance. He played better under Tort's system I felt like also, but who knows how he'd perform here. Again, kind of unlikely that either would land here but I like Girardi as a player personally. -

Edler is better offensively but is generally a bit of a liability on defense, he's like a lower end Letang. Granted the additional offense would be nice he's not going to be much help improving the goals against issues. Girardi on the other hand isn't amazing on offense but he's a solid defensive player, is capable of blocking a lot of shots and playing a physical game. If allowed to play his game, he would be a difference maker here. If I had to pick between the two i'd bring in Girardi, i'm not opposed to Edler but I think the price that comes with him the money can be better invested elsewhere. I don't think either land here though in reality. -

He's gotta look good for those Corona chugging and bubble gum chewing shots for 24/7. -
Welcome back Danny D! Wings take this one 4-1. GO RED WINGS!!

Welcome back Nyquist! Really want to see this small win streak extended, let's make it 3 in a row, Alfie pots a couple on the kids line and Wings take it 4-1. GO RED WINGS!! -
Moved this thread to the Trade section of the forums, it's better suited here instead of General Discussion.

Finally a shootout win. A big thanks to Alf and Dats who were both big reasons why we won these last two games. -

At least we scored 3 goals so far! -
I always thought it would be fun to be within Tie Domi's splash zone.

I'd like to claim Saturday, January 18th, LA Kings @ Red Wings

gdt 12/19 GDT: Flames 2 @ Red Wings 3 (OT)
MabusIncarnate replied to MabusIncarnate's topic in General
Keep Tootoo in the lineup, he brought energy, he was noticeable, and helped this squad win tonight. Even against Calgary, it's a win and it's two points, and that's more than we could have said these past few games. Stay confident younglings, the force is with you. Let's keep winning games, it's a lot more fun this way. -

gdt 12/19 GDT: Flames 2 @ Red Wings 3 (OT)
MabusIncarnate replied to MabusIncarnate's topic in General
Yeah exactly, that's basically 2 of their top 3 players imo. Only a couple injuries but significant ones, might prove to be beneficial and help us out tonight. -
They made it to the 2nd round of the playoffs and brought the cup champs to an intense game 7. They are hammered with important player injuries and are on a small losing skid because of it. Coaching only can do so much, considering the circumstances it would be pretty unfair to Babcock at this moment to even consider this his fault and jeopardize his job due to reasons beyond his control. Plus, I sound like a broken record here as I keep saying this, this team is still sitting 6th in the East and that's pretty damn impressive all things considered to be in a playoff position. Granted the Wings lead the league in OT loss points, but in this modern NHL points are points and that's what determines the overall standings. There is one resolution here, it's not the coach, it's not the GM, it's the injuries. Get healthy, and they begin to play better.

Graphics updated with tonight's lineup as released by Ansar KHAN! Should be final going into the game. Monster is allowed a bad game every now and again, that's why he's the backup. I expect a bounce back and him to come up big as he has prior to last game. It's the Flames, WE WILL WIN! GO RED WINGS!!! -
So next gen consoles? Who is making the jump
MabusIncarnate replied to frankgrimes's topic in Water Cooler
Yeah I think Dropkick's post above is correct, hopefully they will sell a separate adapter wire to plug into the Xbox One controller opposed to having to buy a new set of Turtle Beaches. Regardless, they are worth the investment even if you have to buy a new set especially for shooters, having voice chat capability and surround sound online to hear where enemies are approaching from all in one is invaluable. I'm on my second pair in 6 years and not sure if I could do without them now. -

Once more updated lines become available i'll update, lines as they are currently posted are purely speculation.
