YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 What the f*** is this? That was worse than the first period. The first 10 minutes they dominated and then they forgot how to ******* play. Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Lidstrom, Raffi. GET IT THE f*** TOGETHER. YOURE ALL PLAYING LIKE s***. Jesus christ. Terrible shots. No rebounds. No net crashing. No ferocity in the corners. Dont even tell me theyre tired. YOURE PLAYING FOR THE ******* STANLEY CUP. You should be giving and having your BEST game tonight. Where the f*** is the effort?

Lidstromrules16 7 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 We can't get one decent shot on goal. All our shots are meaningless slapshots from 40 feet out, which have no chance of going in, with no screen out front. We need to send more people to the net, because right now they're outplaying us. The Pens are more aggressive than us, and are more willing to drive the net. That has to change. I agree about the wings shots, but I dont think the Pens are outplaying the wings one bit. That second was almost like most of game 2. Boring with wings conrolling play but not getting anything done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FinRedWing 172 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 I wonder if this break between periods feels 1 minute long,like the first one did. 4rd will be such a huge period,will my heart take it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cirov19 1 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 So here's what's going to happen: The Red Wings are going to win this game. Damn straight. Now everybody agree with SeeinRed and say that the Wings are going to win this game. "The Wings are going to win this game..." Get some positive energy into this thread.

GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 Pavel and Hank look like they have Evgeni Malkin Syndrome. The look tired out there, and are shying away from going to the net. Too many of their shots are going wide, and they're not chasing the puck like they normally do. I'd put Franzen on our top line right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ozzie30 170 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) Yeah, a better second but how the f is detroit gonna come away with this game with the bs perimeter shots they're taking. Move cleary down and put Franzen up with D&Z. The Wings NEED this game. Edited June 1, 2008 by Ozzie30 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Pens are more aggressive than us, and are more willing to drive the net. That has to change. I totally agree. The Wings need to get better chances. All they are doing is throwing pucks at the net. You need to screen the goalie and crash the net. All these 40 ft shots aren't going to be of any worth unless theres people below the circles.

Matt 1,048 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 The aggressiveness and effort on a forecheck isn't there through 40 minutes. Get aggressive, get to the front of the net and force the Penguins to take penalties against you. Right now Detroit's not doing that. Osgood was phenomenal in that period. Huge saves.

Boring with wings conrolling play but not getting anything done They had several great shots on net, which Ozzie had to fight off. How many shots did Fleury have to fight off in that period? To me that means they are outplaying us. We can't seem to get any great scoring chances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 Phew, ok. Im done with my rant. The Wings will win this!! 2-1 and then the Empty netter. Wings take this 3-1. I can still feel this. Our best period always seems to be the third. Get one goal and thats all we need. We can hold them off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
