puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 I base my judgements on what I saw not what they announcers say. Their words only go so far. sorry, I forgot to put in a giant sarcasm smilie on my comment. I am so sick of Detroit announcers not giving Dom any credit. You'd think they were calling for the other team. Oh, well, Dom did well even if it was just the Hawks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wings_Rule_1010 4 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 (edited) Chicago can play rough, but they crossed the line a few times tonight. I'd like to see some fines, but does that even do anything to a nasty s*** hole in the gutter team like the Hawks? I definitely think that one on Calder should at least be fined, if not suspended. It was not only a hit from behind, but he leaped into Calder. But of course, it probably won't. Edited February 28, 2007 by Wings_Rule_1010 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schneids_is_awesome 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Great game. I almost didn't recognize the team with all their physicality. It was nice to see, finally/ Yea, and nothing makes me think "physical" than Hudler and Lebda. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elshupacabra 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 First of all I love these GDT posts by Aflac but I also want some clarification on the Lebda call (forgive me if this has already been covered) they gave him a game misconduct for "...not having his jersey tied down" can someone explain that? i've never heard of that before Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Good job boys. Too bad Hasek didn't get the shutout, but the win is the important thing. Good job also to Kyle Calder. A goal, assist, and some physical play too. Great job Calder! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Pretty easy going affair for the Wings... Calder looked great. Obviously the goal and the assist, but he drove to the net a few times and provided good jump. Pavel was sharp tonight. He and Homer continue to display good chemistry... Hasek's wanderlust pays off tonight, and boooo Hamilton for messing with the SO. Wings beat Chicago handily, ho hum, we'll do it again Friday with Hank back in the line up.

Airborn 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Is it just me or did the Hawks look entirely disinterested tonight? We have a bunch of games left against them too. Not exactly a great test for the playoffs; I'm pretty sure of AHL team could beat them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gives you an unfair advantage because you can grab the other guy but he's got nothing to hold onto. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedRum #1 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 IObviously I dont expect Clader to score every game, but if he can provide that kind of forechecking effort and puck pursuit every game he'll be an even better aquisition than my optimistic ass thought he would be.

Flip-check 6 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Homer is hilarious. 'Ehhh you always have to bring that up don't you." hahaha! I love listening to him. He's just great, I swear, if they had Red Wings Weekly showing all the good stuff like that for like.. three nights out of the week, I would so be there. It would be embarassing to reconcile in my head, but I would so be there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel bad for anybody who has to play in Chicago. You could literally hear the players skates tonight it was so quiet.

rwfan007 18 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 just to clarify the Lebda thing...

Guest Crymson Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Oh well. No extra points for a shutout. True. Hasek's done it all by this point anyway-- I doubt he really cares as long as he gets the W. Totally Lilja's fault. Did ANYONE but me notice how goddamn clumsy the guy was out there? He was like a boy amongst men. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skacore 2 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 The jersey strap rule is so pointless..... not really its pretty straight forward, tie your strap down and you won't get ejected, it's there because some more active fighters (mccarty) would just let the top half of their equipment slip off which gives them an advantage over their opponent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
