3/14 GDT: Red Wings 5 at Blues 2

i just mean 1-on-1 when we play a team, our goalie gets alot less shots but yet cannot keep more out of the net then the opposing goalie. Then i see these same goalies get blown out by some suckass team. OOOhh aaah so close is all i hear when we are shooting, goalies seem to have a leprechaun in their jock with how lucky they get against us.

You have to remember quality versus quantity. We may get more shots on net than the other team, but the ones that the other teams get away are usually of better quality since the s***ty shots usually get stick blocked or blocked in general. Think about all the point blank shots that the other teams get or the odd man rushes they have. They may not get as many shots on net as the Wings, but the quality of theirs shots are usually a lot better than our perimeter shots.

Btw, for those just joining the early game (Electro?) it's 1-0 Blues off a goal Ozzie saw all the way and just whiffed on.

Either that's sarcasm or it actually happened. Either way, I'm sure plenty of people broke dishes over it.

In any event, we'll get it back and then some. No worries.

Bottom line, if it weren't for Ozzy, this game would already be a blowout.

Oz made some key saves. I didn't expect a shutout anyhow. We just need to play smart D and the goals will come. Wings will prevail.

Just play simple defensive hockey.

I know it's hard to forget what he did for us last year in the postseason, but I am getting real tired of Stuart's play. How does he miss that pass to Oshie. He was right there, i'd like to say he was out of position but he wasn't he just flat out didn't read the pass and deflect the puck. But he continues to turn pucks over and get out played in our own zone. I know the team has a whole has been lackluster in their own zone but stuart just sticks out even more. And when was the last time our goalie(s) made a save to keep us in a game. I watch all the other teams and we get get good chances on them and they make the saves like NHL goalies should. But for some reason, any good chance our opponent gets on us, our goalie gives up. It's really getting old. They aren't playing that bad, just one or two things need to change to change the whole confidence of this team.

Indeed.

From what I'm hearing, the Wings are playing less sluggish and more energized. That's good, hopefully it'll translate into some goals. Not for nothing, but it's hard to win games when you look like you'd rather be tucked in with a binky and your teddy bear.

Damn, I didn't realize we were playing so early... I just turned on the tv to set up the dvr for the game and it was on... I have to go to work in a half hour... :( Hopefully we'll have ten goals by then.

How many times do I have to hear that the team the Wings are playing are a different team. A different Blues team, a different Jackets team, a different Wild team. I am sick of that s***. It's an excuse for poor play. Why can't the Wings just play better than them?

Easy answer. We aren't fighting for a playoff spot.

Here in GB, some locations have them for $5 while others have them for $6. I don't understand why.

Likely demand. Higher demand means they can raise the prices and still sell as many.

Ironically it's $5 here (like $5.40 with taxes) but there's lots of competition all around.

We haven't been fighting for a playoff spot in years. I'm just sick of the excuses. Just come out and play Red Wings hockey for 60 minutes, no matter who the team is,

I know prices are subject to change at different locations...but I see it advertised as 5 bucks and, damn it, I want it for five bucks!

Franchises are given some leeway with pricing.

You can pretty much say that about any goalie, in any hockey game.

Holy hell, I'm tired. Practically falling asleep between periods here. WTH?

One word. Caffeine.

I'm confident we'll pull this out and if what you're saying is true, we owe Ozzie for the fact we still have many chances to come back and win.

I want him to get win #300 so maybe some of you will crawl off his ass for 2.5.

i find it unbelievable how every shot from the point, lobbed or hard, gets through 10 guys and finds it way to the net.. we can't block or prevent a pass if our lives depended on it.. it's scary. its the only way wings lose.. they are never beat on 2 on 1's or breakaways (very rare), its always not being able to get it out of the zone. again today in the first period, about 10x we couldn't get it out, and any shot from the point.. always ends up on our net. pure garbage.
