Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted March 1, 2009 I gotta say, I'm not really happy with the decisions/scratches being made by the head coach. It's nice that McCarty is down here but guess who's sitting as a result? It was Pare yesterday, that's not right. And now it's Jan Mursak, one of our best offensive prospects. I'd rather him play than D-Mac. Anyway disappointing start. We really need to get some consistency back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uk_redwing 495 Report post Posted March 1, 2009 Tbh as we're playing Lake Erie the softest team in the AHL, I think Downs should have been scratched. But Im obviously delighted he hasnt been Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted March 1, 2009 2-0 cool, Lake Erie are going to beat us again. Really annoyed Brett Peterson is playing over Pyett who was just starting to find some form. The same Peterson that mailed it in only a few months back. And Mike Walsh over Mursak, not happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm thinking about you, Aussie Wing, as I'm multi-tasking tonight: doing my in-law's income taxes... listening to the game...and enjoying a glass of Australian port...

We do have some of the best wines, or so I've heard. Finally a goal! GR Emmerton, (7) (McCarty, McGrath), 11:10 One more to tie the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted March 1, 2009 And we're all tied up! GR Pare, (18) (Gagnon, Haydar), 14:43 I'd love to win in regulation but I'd take a point tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it were up to me, all four would be in Detroit And you may be angry Patterson is in their Aussie, but hes a +2 tonight so good things are happening with him on the ice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GROwl 5 Report post Posted March 1, 2009 (edited) If it were up to me, all four would be in Detroit Just curious, who would you send down to GR from Detroit? Maybe we could give Kenny a call? Just for discussion purposes, I'd love to see Leino, Helm, Filppula and Kopecky back. I'm not being too greedy...I'm not asking for Datsyuk or Zetterberg! I'd also welcome back Hudler, Lebda and Meech any day of the week. Maybe Hossa will need some conditioning. Edited March 1, 2009 by GROwl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Id probably send Leino, Filpulla, Kopecky and Maltby down Id keep Helm cos hes young and gritty, whilst those four just annoy me. Leino could use some more work on his skating and regular 1st line ice time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leino could use some more work on his skating and regular 1st line ice time. Keep Maltby (unless he's assigned to GR an assistant coach). Many have commented on Leino's skating. What do you bet that he attends some Powerskating "classes" this summer? Didn't Jiri Hudler do that last summer or the one before to improve his skating?
