The sky is falling.

We're 15 minutes into a game and you already assume it's going to be a loss, I already see this becoming an ongoing thing on this board this year.

Nowhere in his comment did he imply the Wings were going to lose this game.

Nice save by Ozzie there

[YoungGuns1340 1]

How the f*** is that not a penalty?

[CanadaBoy 151]

lol did Hossa try to pull an Ovechkin>

I'm not assuming it's a loss. I just think it's sad how we defend our Cup by having to come from behind in 3 out of 4 games so far. The Wings are the best team in the league, and they aren't acting like it. I know we will pick it up by playoffs, but we shouldn't have to pick it back up. We should have never lost it to begin with.

Good god.

Fil lifts a guys stick and get a penalty.

Hossa gets hog-tied and doesn't draw a penalty.

Woops. Sorry. I guess I didnt take a look at the username.

Wings look really, really ordinary.

Just nothing is clicking, I assume it's been like this all season.

I tell you who doesn't look ordinary though, Datsyuk. He is amazing.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Look at Mitchell running his mouth...he wants the Mule!

[edicius 3,269]

Huh...a couple people in the Justin.tv chat just said that "hossa is in talks with ken holland to sign for 2 years at 4.5 mil a season".

Anybody else hear that?

[BlueMonk 102]

I tell you who doesn't look ordinary though, Datsyuk. He is amazing.

He has been. He should have twice the points he has by now.

[YoungGuns1340 1]

My god...how many posts and crossbars are we gonna have this year?

I agree. We look like an 8th/9th place team right now.

[The Mule 0]

Please let Rafalski be alright.

That's an e5 right there.

[YoungGuns1340 1]

Has Hossa been spending a lot of time with Samuelsson or something? He keeps on taking shots with no traffic in front.

[edicius 3,269]

Damn, we look awful out there. Lucky to only be down by one. Ozzie with a rough start, but he's made some great saves since.

Of course, Lilja's been brilliant.

I blame this score solely on the endboards so far. Clearly the Red Wings could never be outplayed for an entire period.

[Guest Four]

Wings still average?

[Never_Retire_Steve 35]

Brutal period

[Doggy 130]

Anyone else hear the e5 on Gaborik to Montreal for Higgins and a 1st??

[MacK_Attack 108]

He has been. He should have twice the points he has by now.

For my pool's sake, I wish he did.

Actually, Lilja has been playing well. I thought he was one of the best players in the first.

[Aussie_Wing 354]

Not sure what to say. We look so flat and aren't playing with any intensity. The lines just aren't clicking. I though the 1st line looked good, Datsyuk was great and Hossa had a few pretty heavy shots. I think he'll get his first as a Wing tonight.

Second line was okay but didn't generate many quality scoring chances. Didn't see Hudler but I look at the event summary and realise why. He played less than 90 seconds, the lowest of ANYONE on the team. Staggering. I realise we didn't get a PP but cmon Babs, stop treating him so poorly.

Not worried about this game because we're only down by 1 despite playing so bad.
