Rivalred 630 Report post Posted January 11, 2009 Miller Time is going to be a tough one to crack. 3-1 win and Hossa's goal flutters in, was a great game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#19=Legend 29 Report post Posted January 11, 2009 Okay.....just for the sake of clarity, you're saying that Conklin "held them in it all game long" in a game where he saw 6 shots in the 1st, (and let in one questionable goal), saw 4 shots in the 2nd, (and none at all after the 67 footer at the ~6 minute mark), and stopped 12 mostly perimeter and bad angle shots, (5 of which were from ~50+ feet out), in the third, while HIS team fired forty eight quality shots at a goaltender, (and a Team), playing on the second night of back to back Games? You're saying he deserved "at least second star" for holding the Wings in this game, "all game long"? Oh no, puckloo. Whatever you say... completely agree. it was our defense tonight. which is what everyone on this board has been (rightfully) bitching about all season long. it was good to see the D play solid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But admit it, if Conklin didn't dive out on Vanek, it coulda been 2-0 EASY. That one sequence in the first really jumpstarted the team imho. (The D wasn't even half bad on that play either, bailed him out afterwards) On to the Stars! cringing at how the week looks though 4 games in 6 nights.

#19=Legend 29 Report post Posted January 11, 2009 oh i admit it. conks played great. made the big saves when he had to, without those few HUGE saves we would have lost. but he wasnt tested that much, which is what we are used to seeing with the Wings. our D is what won us the game IMO and Miller is what kept it a close game and not an embarresment.

DyingAlive 27 Report post Posted January 11, 2009 I love how Conks decided to give us a flashback to the days of Hasek Great play though, really a frantic couple seconds. Good game all around, even better cause my father is a Sabres fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted January 11, 2009 lol, Jeanerette just called Detroit "The Rings". A most appropriate slip of the tongue I notice a lot of this from sportscasters: "Wed Wings" "Wed Rings" "Red Rings". Like the old line from the comic strip "Tank McNamara: "Nort Spews".
