KrazyGangsta 79 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Its not that ... the first line is f***ed ... holmstrom cant do anything alone ... datsyuk is always double teamed ... zetterberg needs a bit more talent and datsyuk cant always help him .... We need to change the 1st line and 2nd Bertuzzi Datsyuk Filpulla Franzen Zetterberg Calder Hudler Lang Holmstrom Maltby Draper Cleary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yzerfan1999 81 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 i agree, get Holmstrom off the first line. He is good in front of the net, but other then that, he lacks the skill to play with those two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We need to change the 1st line and 2nd Bertuzzi Datsyuk Filpulla Franzen Zetterberg Calder Hudler Lang Holmstrom Maltby Draper Cleary I like the idea of switching up the lines but i think a line of Bertuzzi dats and filpula would get eaten alive. I think a line of Bert Dats and Homer would be superb. Two big guys making room for dats moves. Then maybe franzen zetterberg and calder. I like the idea of two grinders and a talented goal scorer, creates room and will keep the other team from double teaming our stars. Sammy needs to go and we need a 3rd line of like flip huds and lang, that line worked all through regular season pretty well, then of course our grinders of Malts drapes and cleary. We need to do something and i think the only thing that babs can do is sit sammy. Last year was a fluke, he wil never be that good again, and putting him on the point for PP and Penalty kills is just killing us. Bowman did it with Federov and it worked ok.....doesnt mean every coach should try it and expect success. It didnt work with williams and its not ganna work with sammy. He doesnt have enough talent to play forward let alone defense.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rice 42 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Why hasn't Babcock rolled Datsyuk-Zetterberg-Bertuzzi yet? Bertuzzi would take a lot of attention away from the twins and Hank and Pavel are good enough defensively to take care of Bertuzzi should he make a mistake.

cr00d 26 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Let's keep in mind folks, that Z still hasent found his game comming off that injury. He reminds me alot of Pavs struggling to find his game in last years playoffs following his injury. Hopefully he gets in a groove soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He needs to have a huge game Saturday or else hes going to have alot of time to get back into that groove....a few months actually..... Im thinking Z has a 3 point night with atleast 1 goal....

Offsides 21 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Cut Z's minutes. If he's not OK, he shouldn't be a liability out there..which he's not reeeeally been yet. But he's been ineffective. Give Flip and Huds some time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gives FLip some more time and sit sammy so we can get HUDS back into the game. Give Lebda some special teams time, hes got speed and durability for that type of play....

I fear he's not healthy though, no matter what they are saying... I love Zetterberg. Im no sure whats up with him. He inst playing like his old self. Hes not scoring or putting up points or even logging as much ice time which makes me think hes not healthy, but when he is out there he is being so physical that makes me think he is 100%. I just dont know what to think. Calgary is going a great job of making sure he stats uneffective, much like we have done with Iginla besides in game 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My GF Wishes I Was Hank 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 GET SAMMY AND LANG OFF OF THE ICE. GET HUDLER ON IT. i'm sick of these lazy asses pissing around. we shouldbe able to make a 5th line, and just put lang, sammy and a goddamn bag of drill cones out there. No way, the bag of drill cones would out play sammy and make him look even worse. I dont know it Sammy could take that sort of dissapointment....i mean hes already by far the worse Swede that we have....does he really have to leanr the hard way that hes worse than a bad of cones....

OsGOD 3 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 (edited) I to am not bashing him... I just don't believe he should be seeing #1 minutes yet... A healthy player should be in that role. If, by the grace of god we get past round1, then he can heal up and get back the minutes. But if we get rid of Lang, how would Bertuzzi ever score that goal tonight?

Sammy takes retarded shots that NEVER get to the net. I don't hate Mikael, I just wish he'd take an extra half second to make better choices. on a side note, i hate lang, blah.

My GF Wishes I Was Hank 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 drill cones would never touch the puck lang would be too busy giving it up and samy would be firing wrist shots from the center ice dot poor drill cones The cones would be a massive force in our defensive end...however Sammy would problemy spend most of hte time tripping over them making the cones look bad....

pavyaz19 1 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 But if we get rid of Lang, how would Bertuzzi ever score that goal tonight? um, any other winger in on the team that can make that simple pass... i'll just say Hudler - yeah, Hudler coulda made that pass while Lang was hitting some range balls.

Guest RobertLang Report post Posted April 20, 2007 Why do you talk bad about Henrik? The 1st line needs a new center! I think Robert Lang should be the center- he is best player on ice! Sincerely, Robert Lang Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pavyaz19 1 Report post Posted April 20, 2007 hahaha, oh you're so silly Robert, did you forget about your tee-time Saturday? You can't center the first line, you have to hit the links. But if Babs makes you play, just be lazy and act like you don't care... no one will know you're pouting if you act normal like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is Babs waiting for? I'm not going to bash Hank here. He will find his game, that is if the rest fo the Wings give him enough games to get it back. Still, Babs utter failure to address our first line's issues is a sign of less than brilliance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Babs is waiting to get them rolling in Game 8. He is thick headed like that... His way or the highway... After being on these boards, your senses become very keyed in on such logic. Then again Zeta is obviously still hurt or suffering... Why else would he be taken off the ice on the 5-3 for dom's penalty... when they could have pick ANYONE who was on the ice. That was a dead giveaway that he is not near 100% yet and perhaps a liability on the PK. Edited April 20, 2007 by OsGOD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
