kherty 3 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 (edited) i think they said 20 shots Ellis and 3 for Osgood in the 2nd. Okay, we are in the 3rd. I guess it would be nice to score another goal? WTF Edited April 19, 2008 by kherty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 I'm so annoyed. Ellis could get 100 saves this game. We're lucky to have 1 goal. What is the deal here? Can't we be sharp on D and O... or can we only do one thing at a time? D is there, with only 10 SOG for the Preds, but the offense... Ozzie, be sharp if you ever do see another puck. You have your "lead" for this game, I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kherty 3 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 Is it the types of shots we make on goal? I'm not sure how other teams manage to score...lol Ellis looks like a superstar. (But so does every goalie we tend to face) It gets irritating after a while! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 dont worry, Lils isnt playing to cough up the puck Yeah, but the point is the game went to OT. This could be in the makings for the same result. I hope this team hasn't forgotten that game. Also, it looks like Sammy has infected everyone to shoot at the goalie's crest, with the exception of Flip on that 1st goal.

GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 Why can't our guys ever get deflection goals like everyone else does on us? It's the quality of the shots that counts, and not the quantity. We need to send more people to the net for deflections, and our D has to get shots through. Our defense has done nothing offensively in this series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kherty 3 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 37 shots Wings - 11 shots Preds Game totals so far... Holmstrom's interview on Vs. showed that he is getting pretty frustrated trying to score on these idiots.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedFX 48 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 Geez, I'm starting to wonder how everyone in the NHL missed out on Ellis. This guy was invited to a tryout for Nashville's AHL team. Now he's becoming one of the hottest goalies in the playoffs. Still, watching him this season, sometimes 1 goal is all it takes to get him rattled. We're due to break through any minute. I can feel it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, it looks like Sammy has infected everyone to shoot at the goalie's crest, with the exception of Flip on that 1st goal. the only reason that game went to OT was because lilja was the one who scored the wings goal. The gods hate Lilja, I am convinced, thats why it was him who coughed up the puck to end the game, because he actually helped the Wings, so the gods forced him to hurt them to. seriously though, I know what your saying, Wings NEED another goal atleast.

Fortunately, as Homer just said, they decided to do something about that tonight. Better late than never. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoninJai 5 Report post Posted April 19, 2008 It HAS to be the shots we take. Drapes was in a 2 on 1 back there with I think Flip, and more importantly the net, wide open on the right side, and instead just shot it right at Ellis's chest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course it would've been great if he had passed, but in fairness Hudler was a solid 15 feet behind him on the play. I don't think he even realized he had a trailer until the play was over.

I am ashamed to admit, I laughed out loud when they failed on that 2-1. Ellis is grinning from ear to ear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
