WCSF GAME 1 GDT: Ducks 2 at Red Wings 3

[GSBrooks13 204]

Well.. the Ducks turned our game on us.. they knew our PP was punishing them for taking bad penalties and realised the best way to use it against us was to dive until we got bad penalties too..

[GMRwings1983 8,803]

Diving or not those were still careless plays by the Wings.

Hey guys!

I just found some video of Chris Pronger's mom, I can see the resemblance!

Haha, that's such a repeat of this game. The lady fakes a fall after getting hit BEHIND her head, and then the judge says "She got hit in the eye!" replace the Judge with a ref and you have this game.

[Firehawk 305]

Where has hossa been? I haven't even heard his name mentioned. Don't remember seeing him on the ice either since the first...

[Guest E_S_A_D]

Carlyle did a great job of getting into the minds of league officials before this game.

Huge 3rd period here.

[EuroTwin 240]

Cleary with the GWG.

Seriously, they are much smarter than that. They need to act like it.

[russianswede919293 95]

Hossa and Pavel have been almost invisible today.

[VM1138 1,921]

Where has hossa been? I haven't even heard his name mentioned. Don't remember seeing him on the ice either since the first...

Datsyuk, too. Only heard their names a few times tonight. THey'll be huge in the 3rd.

Franzen's was stupid. I don't think Homer expected Pronger to go down like a prostitute getting paid for production.

[10 Minute Misconduct 104]

Dive by Pronger. Stupid penalty by Mule.

Last minute goals to end periods are always deflating.

[Guest Shoreline]

I miss TSN.

[russianswede919293 95]

I had forgotten how much I hate Anaheim. More than Pittsburgh.

The Ducks bring out the worst in me.

[Matt 1,049]

A better second, a couple of defensive lapses where the Ducks' lower lines were out-working Detroit's, but the Wings seemed to carry the play. Some bad penalties late, obviously.

Is it just me or has Filppula been one of our most consistent forwards every game? He may not always end up on the scoresheet but his two-way play has been very impressive.

STILL need more shots. Just start getting it on net.

[MTU_Huskies963 398]

Redmond is having a stroke some where lol

[edicius 3,269]

Let'sjust take the positive here...we're not down heading into the 4rd.

[drfnr14 0]

wings are still not playing like the wings. hiller is easily beatable. we need to stay out of the box. but most we need to get those 2nd and 3rd shots off of rebounds. ana, is clearing the rebounds away. we need more shots on net. in our zone we need to pick that last trailer/ man in to the zone. seems like ana likes to bring everyone down low to the net the dump the puck back to the point for the rocket blast on ozzy.

3rd period must be dominated by detroit or we all will have sad faces on.

About half our forwards up front are invisible. Cleary, Filppula, and our 4th line have given us some energy, but the big guns have been half-assing it when not on the PP.

Franzen, Zetterberg, Datsyuk, and Hossa are much better than this.

On the bright side, the Perry-Getzlaf-Ryan line hasn't been doing much either.

[EuroTwin 240]

Huddles goes to hit Pronger and takes him out at the knees. Pronger spontaneously combusts on the ice.

Huddles gets a parade.

[edicius 3,269]

Franzen's was stupid. I don't think Homer expected Pronger to go down like a prostitute getting paid for production.

Agreed. If that little nudge was able to make Pronger take off like he was shot out of a cannon, Homer must be the strongest man alive.

I mean, hell, that was a Crosby-worthy dive.

Okay boys, it's time for no more Mr. Nice Guys.

Get it done! WIN WIN WIN!!!!!!!

[VM1138 1,921]

Gotta love how they're telling viewers how to sneak an octopus in and rules of throwing it, considering it's technically "illegal" in the NHL.

[Jedi 1,865]

Haha. Vs featuring the Octopus toss.

[Guest Shoreline]

Beautiful. Praise to Versus for showing something worthwhile.
