Sunday, Jan 20 @Stars L 2-5 Game Trax | Box Score Wednesday, Jan 23 Red Wings L 1-2 Game Trax | Box Score Thursday, Jan 24 @Kings L 1-3 Game Trax | Box Score Wednesday, Jan 30 @Wild L 1-5 Game Trax | Box Score Friday, Feb 1 @Blues OTL 0-1 Game Trax | Box Score Saturday, Feb 2 @Flyers L 0-3 Game Trax | Box Score Not only have they lost 6 in a row, they were only able to score 5 goals in those 6 games. This wouldn't be a problem if they had a lock on a playoff spot but they are currently only 2 points above #8 and the #9 and #10 teams have 3 and 4 games in hand. They are now #30 in GAA. Worst in the entire league. 1 guy (Selanne) is going to save them? I don't think so Isn't that a shame? Hehehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cicada 4 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 they're not #30 in GAA...they're #7 they're #30 in GFA... kinda embarasing when you're scoring less goals than the fishsticks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zion 93 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 Mmmmmm... fish sticks. Seriously, though (because fish sticks suck, I'm just hungry)... the Quacks will get over this. They will make the playoffs, and they will play us. The Wings need to be ready. Low-scoring games that are physical and poorly officiated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If this s*** continues until the trade deadline I think we'll see a big move by Burke. Everyone wants that 1st rounder from Edmonton. Of course he'd like to keep it, but Burke's definitely not afraid to make moves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

b.shanafan14 733 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 As much as I love the Ducks woes, especially since Neidermeyers return and the announced return of Selanne and Brian Burke being the devil, I would hate to face the Ducks in the first round. But I don't see them being #8 seed either way, so I'll continue to root for the team opposite Anahiem. As much as I wouldn't want to play a POS chincy team like the Ducks again, am I insane for almost wanting to see Wings-Ducks II in the playoffs so the Wings could beat them and shut some people up???

Hehehe While the losing streak certainly doesn't help their cause obviously, unless you are on the outside looking in like Los Angeles, who has the most difficult chance to make the playoffs I think (and Chicago and Edmonton to a slightly lesser extent), it's a little premature to say anybody is in deep doo doo. Every team has their snags throughout a season, and they all end at some point in time. A team as good as the Ducks will end this snag sooner than later I think.

Mudvayneowns91 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 (edited) Has anyone else noticed that the Sens having being playing pretty mediocre as of late? I know we don't have them like the Duckies, but I could remember like a month ago where they were only handful of points back from us. Now we're like 8 games ahead of them. Seems like the Presidents Trophy is a given this year. Edited February 3, 2008 by Mudvayneowns91 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 I think they're our biggest threat, but I'm tired at how much we obsess over them here on LGW. I guess everybody here is terrified of the Ducks, because each time they're on any kind of losing streak or winning streak, it is way overhyped here. This is how divealanche fans obsess over the Wings, and I don't want us to take that same route with the Ducks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlueMonk 102 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 The Ducks are the most serious threat to the Wings' chances of advancing to the SCF, so their struggles now don't offer much comfort to me. This is why the Wings' incredible regular season doesn't even excite me that much. All teams start with a 0-0 record in the playoffs. I still enjoy it, don't get me wrong; but we've seen this before and ended up disappointed in the spring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, if they are our biggest threat, doesn't it make sense to discuss them as opposed to, say, the Islanders or Panthers? And maybe we are not "terrified" of them, but they are our biggest threat, as you pointed out yourself. If you are tired of it, I suggest you don't click on threads about them. It's actually really easy to ignore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Donaldjr2448 43 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 Well... I think alot of this losing streak is the fact they (Ducks) are playing teams that have either only one chance or their last chance to knock off the Champs. Like I have always said, teams get up to play the Defending Champs. Honeslty the Ducks could have won 4 of those games, they should have beat the Wings, but 2 turnovers and the Wings made them pay!! I still think the Ducks will finish 4th or 5th in the West, I hope they don't slip to 8th, but if so BRING IT BURKE!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
