10/16 GDT: Canucks 4, Red Wings 3 (OT)

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

Well, not all night...

Ozzie did everything he could on the last goal. I should've just said he's playing really good

[RedWingsFanatic 4]

I actually thought Brett Lebda was really good in the first three games. Tonight? Not so much. But I'm willing to give him some credit.

[Aussie_Wing 354]

I've said all I need to say about Hossa, except....get him off the ice please.

This is the fourth game of the season. There are eighty-two. We are 2-1 and the defending Stanley Cup Champions. Things are going to be okay.

Stanley Cup Champions or not, there is no reason to believe at this point that "things are going to be okay".

Every time I watch Kopecky play, I'm puzzled as to exactly kind of player he is, or more specifically, wants to be. I have yet to be incredibly impressed with him, and I can't help but think a guy like Helm or Leino would be a better fit. I realize some people think he adds size and grit, and I suppose he does, but at this point I think he's more taking up space than intimidating the opposing team. Just my two cents.

If I want to critique the team, I have every right to. I could just as soon tell you to shut up about criticizing me. When did I see this team was in the s***ter? When did I see we werent going to make the playoffs? and who the hell cares if we are the defending Stanely Cup Champs. Ask the Carolina Hurricanes what it means to be the defending cup champs. It doesnt mean anything for this season, and most importantly, for this game. Right now, theyre playing like an average team, complete with rampant inconsistencies.

[edicius 3,269]

GO LILJA! He wants a goal too.

[dicksmack 33]

How many bodychecks have the Wings thrown tonight? one or two?

[RedWingsFanatic 4]

Jesus, I was just trying to be positive.

Yeah! They should start to play like those teams that haven't had a bad period or two in this early season.

Oh, wait...

-1 or -2 sounds more like it.

Hahahah, we're going to the PP.

[Jedi 1,865]

PP!

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

LOL at the kid behind Ohlund

[edicius 3,269]

Wings PP. Let's put it away.

[dicksmack 33]

Way to keep those short legs pumping Homer!

[sergei_is_still_a_wing 1]

can't watch the wings in class, but im watching the crosby/ovi matchup the media loves to cream over and its actually a pretty good game. 3-3 on nylanders goal.

go wings.

[YoungGuns1340 1]

Jesus, I was just trying to be positive.

Its not you in particular. Its the epidemic on this board of people coming out to accuse people of panicking when all we're doing is criticzing a stacked team that is playing subpar.

[dicksmack 33]

Please get Hossa away from Pav...

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

Oh Sammy.

[edicius 3,269]

Hossa is lazy and he sucks?

[YoungGuns1340 1]

Please get Hossa away from Pav...

Babs should just consider switching Hossa and Franzen and see how Hossa does with Hank as his center once Hank returns.

Should we ™ it?

[YoungGuns1340 1]

Hossa is lazy and he sucks?

Haha well ironically Hossa's performance does remind me a lot of Lang's performance when he was with the Wings, except that Hossa is a lot better defensively.

[Third Man In 2,091]

Sidenote: is "drinkability" really something to hang your hat on as a beer? Did they think "Bud Light: not total swill" wasn't catchy enough?

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Interesting fact there, Wings drafted Franzen because Vancouver took Alex Edler first
