GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted November 23, 2008 I'm glad that Keenan pulled the goalie, letting us pad our offensive stats some further. This was one of the most blue-collar games the Wings have played all season as a team, especially since we had to rebound from blowing a 2-0 lead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted November 23, 2008 Pretty good game. The offense was pretty stagnant at times, but they still notched four goals. Lilja and Maltby had great games, and Hudler is a man who won't be denied. The defense was alright, they got worked over in the defensive zone by the cycle, but the Flames are very good at that, and in the end for all the time they spent working the puck around they didn't get very many great chances. They got their obligatory "blind wrister through traffic that we managed to build a whole Cup run around this one time" goal but I'm fairly pleased with the effort.

Jedi 1,865 Report post Posted November 23, 2008 Conklin was very humble in that interview with CBC. Seemed like they were trying to get him to bite on who should be #1 goalie, and he just reinforced his role of "Playing when he's called on to play, no more, no less" Very classy interview!

Outsider 42 Report post Posted November 23, 2008 caps are getting their ass kicked Of course they are. Brent Johnson is a back-up goaltender who's been masquerading as a starter. He's coming back down to earth where he belongs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can probably supply the live armadillos. I wish I could have seen the postgame... but thanks for the feed anyway, since the game was yanked off of CI thanks to Bettman TV. At least I got to see it, itty bitty, but nice feed just the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He put in a good effort, laid out some big hits, is suddenly showing a bit of offense (enjoy that while it lasts); I don't think there's much room for complaints, all things considered.

GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted November 23, 2008 Lils gets the third star. Atta boy. I was looking for him to get into another fight, but after seeing that punch that he dropped Souray with, we might not ever see Lilja find a willing opponent ever again.

I pooped myself, no joke, I had some of my mom's chili the other night. I literally had to go change my underwear. Ok, I didn't, but Lilja's deke was that good.
