WCSF GAME 5 GDT: Ducks 1 at Red Wings 4

[Guest Shoreline]

And once again, the Ducks announcers calling attention to the fact that shot clock is inaccurate, as far as the discrepancy in shots for vs shots against.

Hillers stats are being padded, AGAIN!

Maybe they don't understand that "shot" and "shot on goal" are two different things.

I asked the girl I'm kind of seeing , read into that whatever you'd like, where she thought Lidstrom was from. Her response, Texas. His accent does sound like it's from down south to be honest, so she gets creativity points for that, she tried haha.

Dats will score today, I can feel it.

Good period. The Wings seem to grow into their games so as long as we're not down in the beginning we're fine.

[w3stfa11 0]

Why haven't we scored yet???? Grr, we lost this game. Screw this!

(kidding!)

[Jedi 1,865]

Best first period by the Wings all series thus far.

Just wish that one (or both) of those posts had gone in. But I'm liking the fact that we've played well and carried the play to the Ducks so far. Keep it up boys. Skate hard, tape to tape on the passes, and we can bury them.

It was way better first period than first periods in which we have watched in last 4 games. Zetterberg line and Franzen line have to score in the 2 period.

Ducks cancel a between periods interview with Wiz for FSW.

I'm getting this mental picture of Nick wearing a ten gallon hat...

End of the period.

We outshot them 14-3 but it's still 0-0.

That's an outright freakin' lie.

And even the ducks announcers have commented on it.

TWICE.

[Jake Ryan 1]

1) Filppula has got to score on that. He is way too talented to miss like that.

2) The officials are so ***** lame. I know there is a league wide mandate to make sure the power plays are even or as close to even as possible when the Wings get by the 1st round. There were AT LEAST 2 other penalties the Ducks commited that period that weren't called. I'm ***** sick of seeing the Red Wings get screwed by the officials.

3) Let's go Pavel. Time to step it up. Right now. This is it. 2 more periods for #13 to make a difference. If he doesn't, then the Wings are going to be in a nail biter.

4) LGW

My guess is she's never heard Scandinavians speak English. They sound a lot like that, not like southerners.

We utterly dominated the Ducks that period, in every way possible really. Sad we're still tied at 0.

We look real good in my opinion. If they keep the pedal to the metal they are going to wear the Ducks down.

We are getting a lot of juicy rebounds too. Some are going to be in the back of the net eventually.

Murph just said, It has been all Wings so far.

Wings domination, through and through.

We keep playing with this intensity and putting traffic in front of Hiller, and we've got an easy win.

And our defense is looking pretty good today!

[RedWingsFanatic 4]

First of all, Nick Lidstrom could not sound LESS southern. How bizarre. LMAO.

Anyway, pretty strong period from the guys. Here's hoping those posts don't come back to haunt us.

[Stockholm-wing 0]

Almost midnight here with 2 periods left and I have to get up at 6.45 am

[dat's sick 1,002]

Not a bad 1st period compared to earlier in this series, the Wings really should have had a goal or two.

Mule, Hoss and Fil look good again. Z and D looked okay, and I feel like any moment they're going to just go crazy and score a hat-trick each.

[Vladifan 680]

That sucks. I thought you had NHL Network and they blacked it out anyways. Can you switch to like DirecTV or Dish?

BOOO PRONGER.

I would SO get Directv. Time Warner offers jack in the way of sports. No NFL ('cause of Directv), and very little hockey.

I'm very sorry you can't see the game. I would be scrrrrreeeeaming. And maiming. And doing Drive-By's by Time-Warner.

Completely off-topic, but I can't believe anyone here actually has even HEARD of the band, Kamelot, let alone used them on their avatar. "Ghost Opera" is pretty killer. Nice choice in music.

Except for the fact that they are NOT getting traffic in front of Hiller. He's popping out rebounds, left and right, and the Wings have gotten to ZERO of them. They're throwing muffins at him again, allowing him to gain confidence as the Game goes on.

The Ducks are controlling the play in the Neutral Zone. That's not a good sign...

[servo 15]

Our 3rd line looks pretty incredible today!!!!

[RedWingsFanatic 4]

This has probably already been discussed somehwere, but just so everybody's clear, Game 6 and the potential Game 7 won't be nationally broadcast, if I'm understanding correctly. Not only is this unfathomable and ridiculous, it sucks for fans who aren't local or who don't have NHL Network.

[Vladifan 680]

It looks like the Wings are right back to where they were in Games 1-3, and the beginning of Game 4.

The Ducks are mucking up the ice, and the Wings are not willing to fight through it. Also back to taking those low percentage, weak shots on the Swiss Miss.

I'm not sure what you're seeing but I see that the Wings dominated the first period. Check the stats.

TWICE.

Who really cares? It's shot on goal - not goals.

I guess the Ducks need something to complain about, though.

Lids doesn't sound anything like a scandinavian speaking english. he sounds like an american speaking english.

Now Homer, that's how a REAL scandinavian sounds like

[Vladifan 680]

you are my new best friend. Works like a charm and it's the Detroit feed, too. Thank you!!

Yeehaaa! Enjoy!
