3/20 GDT: Red Wings 6, Predators 3

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

The wings have been playing fine tonight. Just the fluke goal. Really impressed with Franzen. Which brings up the question...Why is Babcock putting Sammy in with Z and Dats? Didn't Z score 2 of his goals with Dats, and Franzen on the ice (last night)? I can't wait for everyone to come off the IR.

it will all be fine if the team starts playing before the 50 minute mark, like they did last night. They need to play a whole game once in a while...

They will get the one goal back, not worried. Hasek will be fine, too.

the thing is, that kind of overconfidence is killing us IMO. we might not able to score another goal, or they will score another one. If we were so sure that we can score if we play our game, why worry about playoff?

I hope this team wake up and stop giving themselves too much respect. This team is good, but not THAT good

Then go PAY for satellite... <_<

That would require an investment in a TV aswell.

I don't understand why Babcock continues to reward Samuelsson, either. He just isn't a very good player. I used to try to figure it out. Like, 'why isn't he better?' or 'what is he doing wrong?' But I've just come to the conclusion that he isn't good. He adds nothing to the Zetterberg/Datsyuk tandem. I like having Franzen on the second line, so put a guy like Kopecky or even Maltby with them and see what happens. Samuelsson ain't gonna do much.

Or people are watching Sopcast for reasons beyond their control... like a premium cable outage >_>

It wasn't my cup of tea but it beat out the non-existant NHL radio for me by far. I'm thankful my cable company smartened up during the 1st intermission. I get my final 2 periods on my tv :)

that's an interesting take... you think they don't show up because they believe they can pull it out of the fire in the last 10 minutes? Serious question. I hadn't thought about that.

I get mad at them for farting around, turning the puck over, missing the net 100 times per game, shooting in clear lanes so the other team can block another 50 shots per game or so, and then they kick in about the time they notice the clock is running out... :blink:

It just that it's the end of the reg. season, they're on the top of the standings, will get at least #2 seed (unless the wings don't get a single point in the rest of the reg. season..unlikely), so they really just don't have much to give 100% really. I'd rather chill now and save up for the playoffs than bust our ass when it doesn't matter and be in worse condition for the playoffs.

And when I'm typing this kronner scores and I miss it. :(

So uhh

KRONWALL :D

That's the type of mentality Gary Bettman is hoping for with the NHL Network. Buy center ice for dishnetwork (145bucks), then upgrade my service to get versus (15bucks a month), and then upgrade my service to HD to get the NHL network (another 25-35 bucks a month). I guess I will cancel my car insurance so I can see every game.

Oh, nice goal by Nick Jr!

IMO there is difference between playing hard with overconfidence and playing hard with right amount of fear. I don't see any kind of fear of losing from Red Wings and last time I saw that we got swept by Edmonton.

If Red Wings play the game right way then small things will start to come around for them. yeah that's my take
