Wings_Dynasty 267 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 But to win back-to-back Cups, you need to: A) Win back-to-back years (2009 doesn't come after 2007 ) B) Make the playoffs in that second year (Ducks are nowhere near a lock yet) QFT. I hope the standings: A. Stay like they are. Ducks get the Sharks, we get the Preds. B. Anahem goes on a 20 game losing streak and Burke has a stroke.

NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 I appreciate the stereotyping. The Red Wings aren't playing. There is an issue here that you apparently fail to see. Did you see the last couple of games? This isn't a slump. It's s***. There is no reason we should be unable to continue playing like we did at the beginning of the season. How do you figure I fail to see the issue here? Did I ever neglect the fact that the Wings are struggling. Here's the truth. The Wings haven't looked good the last 6 periods of hockey but their longest losing streak of the year is three games. Name another team out there that can best that. Every team goes through slumps, and the refs haven't helped this one. It's true the Wings need to make some moves at the deadline, but it's beyond annoying when people are happy-go-lucky when the Wings are on 8-game win streaks like they were last week, and then doom-and-gloom when they lose a couple. "You can't win them all" isn't an excuse. But winning them all isn't realistic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superman54 91 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 wow Mcguire says we dont have solid goaltending Thats ok, Kolzig will finally win a cup next year, with the Wings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VM1138 1,921 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 These commentators are terrible. One of them just said taht the Wings need to find better goaltending, because Hasek and Osgood just aren't good enough. Erm...what? Two of the statistically best goalies in the league on one team "just aren't good enough?" That's abuot the sixth utterly retarded statement I've heard someone make on this NBC broadcast.

Dominator2005 558 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 Osgood let 2 (two) BAD goals so far... Osgood had 1 (one) giveaway middle of the 2nd (Detroit PP) that was close... Detroit isn't playing best game so far - great to see Downey (with the W) going with Parros... Lilja, Lebda, Sammy, Franzen, Hudler = trade baits Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

savaking72 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 gah just got home was afraid i was going to miss this one!!! Your not missing anything, except your boy Schnieder scored. The wings freak'n suck. I'm caling it now...the losing streak has started! What is with all the ex-wings players scoring? When ever we play someone with an ex-wing they score (With the exception of Boyd yesterday in Toronto). We just look dead out there. The passing sticks, and no one goes to the net with the puck! What's up with that? I am really getting tired of seeing Zetterburg going around the back of the net instead of going to the front. 100% of the time he does it cause he wants the wrap around back hand shot, or to pass. What's with powering to the front? Is his back hurting that bad? Oh, I hope Sammy and Hudler are gone before the deadline, and why were they starting the last power play? I would put the grind line in instead of these two. Hudler has a lot of heart, but he isn't big enough. You sneeze, and he's off the puck. Sammy he's just worthless. And how was that 2nd goal not interfiering with the goalie? If that was a wing...then a penelty would have been called. Not to mention the non call after Pronger's tripping penelty. These refs stink tonight...as usual. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LidsFan 68 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 I think that the fight did spark the team a bit. And I love Downey because he will take on anyone not matter how much bigger they are. We need a couple more players just like him. Also Rafalski should not be allowed to play with anyone but Lidstrom, because he really needs Lids there to cover his mistakes.
