YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 I gotta give credit to Lang. Once you remove Sammy from his line, he doesnt look as bad. Franzen-Lang-Bert is doing awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
commadore183 103 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 I love Lilja. Complete turnaround from his ineptitude during the regular season. I'm starting to love him too . Who ever this Lilja is, I want to keep him. Until he starts screwing up again next year j/k Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 I counted how many times Lang said 'you know' in his interview..and it was 10 times. HAHA just thought I'd share that with everyone. BTW, second line is oh so fine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wings_Toledo 233 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Nice to see Babcock finally put Sammy on the fourth line. I'd much rather he be out of the game entirely, but I'll take what I can get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Until he starts screwing up again next year j/k Be honest, after seeing Kronwall's season, even if he was healthy, would you play him over Lilja? Right now, I wouldn't.

Guest LivingtheDream Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Yeah Bert is playing awesome. If only we could get Dats and Hank goin we would be set, but they are covering the both of them very well. Put Cleary or Mule with them and see what happens. Wait, we have a coach who doesn't adjust lines. We haven't had a coacjhwho adjusts and adapts (effectively) since Bowman.

Matt 1,049 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Just some quick thoughts on the first period: - Hasek better just block out any memory of that first period. He's the reason it's 2-2 right now (boneheaded penalty -- play through it! -- and he should've had the Conroy shot, I don't care if it was deflected since it was 45-feet out). - Better damn line changes! Wasn't this a problem in the Edmonton series last year, too? Get the GD Puck DEEP first! On a better note... - The coaching staff is GENIUS. Moving Franzen up to the No. 2 was an excellent choice. - Fantastic to see Bertuzzi play such an integral part in that 1st period. - The Wings are responding. Each time Calgary got a goal that place sounded like it was about to explode, but Detroit answered to silence. I think as the period went on it was obvious the Wings started to control the play and had a few opportunities to take the lead. If the Wings can play disciplined, smart hockey for the last 40 minutes and keep the pressure up (all four lines were creating chances), I think we'll take a 3-1 lead back to Detroit for Saturday... But Dom has to play much, MUCH better than he did in the first and someone has to wake up this damn power play! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rwfan007 18 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 I just have the feeling that the wings can put this game away right now, calgary has lucked out on those goals and we earned ours. if we just push the pedal harder and come out strong we will be able to take this game. i can just feel it.

commadore183 103 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Be honest, after seeing Kronwall's season, even if he was healthy, would you play him over Lilja? Right now, I wouldn't. That's a tough decision for me. If Lilja keeps playing the way he is now, I'd put him in. (Dear God, did I just type that!? ) But seriously, Lilja is looking better than Kronner.

RedWingsFanatic 4 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Mikael Samuelsson is dead weight. Putting Hudler onto the fourth line would give it the spark it needs to maybe start producing, or even just to play better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
