kylee 727 Report post Posted March 30, 2008 id love to see the Wings play strong with Hasek back now. im very happy he is back. the Preds are in fact fighting for their playoff lives, and they are the team id prefer to face in the 1st round, so how about an OTL for the Preds?

kylee 727 Report post Posted March 30, 2008 i just feel like i might be getting disappointed this afternoon. the Preds have a lot more to play for: their playoff hopes. with four games left i think the Wings would have to lose 3/4 and the Sharks win 3/4 to jump us in the standings... that race is in our favor.

kylee 727 Report post Posted March 30, 2008 Ellis is on a 2 game shutout streak.... well, that is certainly news to me! Ellis was hot the last time we faced the Preds, and the season series is tied too? im not exactly beginning to think that if these two teams meet in the 1st round it'll be a sweep for the Red Wings.

RedWingsFanatic 4 Report post Posted March 30, 2008 It doesn't make any sense to me that Hartigan is playing, while McCarty is not. Mark Hartigan will NOT be in the post-season line-up. He just won't be. And Darren McCarty, a guy that is supposed to be auditioning for a spot, gets benched. It's puzzling, really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted March 30, 2008 My prediction remains the same. 14-2 Wings Datsyuk with 6 points to break 100. If I predict it forever, I might be right once before I die. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He just won't be. And Darren McCarty, a guy that is supposed to be auditioning for a spot, gets benched. It's puzzling, really. Babcock is making some idiotic decisions these last 2 games with the players he's dressing. I don't see why Mac can't be allowed to finish the regular season to try to get his legs back. Is there some NHL rule against dressing 2 tough guys in one game, or is this just a Red Wings "team toughness" crap policy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't get me wrong I love Mac and I'm pulling for him hard core, but I don't think he's going to make the squad in the playoffs. Mac should have played every shift like it was his last one but he didn't have his legs and he got winded early. I'm with you though, he deserves his fair chance and heres to hoping he can get'r goin!!! Wings 2 Franz, Pav Preds 4 Radulov2, Arnott, Tootoo(empty) Got a bad feeling about this one. I don't think we match there intensity today, but man do I hope I'm wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
55fan 5,133 Report post Posted March 30, 2008 Pure speculation here, but maybe they're letting Mac get a bit more in shape, what with his ribs and all. I hope to see him back soon. In the mean time, we'll just have to keep plugging away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
