WCF GAME 1 GDT: Blackhawks 2 at Red Wings 5

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

True, Detroit has to keep up the pressure. I'm a Canucks fan here to cheer on the Wings. I firmly believe the Canucks had the opportunities to put that series away and blew them - big time! I doubt the Wings would ever make those mistakes, your team has too much playoff experience, but the Blackhawks will keep coming. If you take game two, however, I think you'll have them on the ropes. Khabibulin is not that good a goalie. Wasn't impressed with him at all. Move Byfuglien from the front of your net and punish their defense.

Go Wings!!!!

Hossa is the only Wings player i was dogging today, what a bum. He seems to be hurt every other play, get some heart and get some confidence. Abdelkader looked better them him tonight. At least give half the effort for us as you did for the Pens. WTF?????????

Remember Hossa's play in game 1 against the Jackets? I miss that Hossa.

I'm sorry, what? You think he's phoning it in, or something?

Dear God.

I love that the argument is always, "Well, you know, there are SO MANY people who think you suck." It's never, "I think you suck, what's the deal?"

I think perception is much more than reality, in this case. There aren't that many people doubting Ozzie, just a lot of people who think a lot of people are.

OZZZZZZZZZIIIIIEEEEEEE!!! WAY TO GO BUDDY!!!

I'm not sure anybody is going to accuse Hossa of phoning it in. He can certainly be accused of playing far below his ability level. He wanted to come to Detroit to play in games like these, so let's what you're capable of. He's been hesitant and inconsistent, though. We all know he can be way better than this. I'm not sure if it's nerves or what, but it would be awfully nice if it's corrected.

Boy, Obama is screwwing up everything. Instead of the game being broadcasted. I get to watch comencement at Notre Dame on NBC. What they heck? Aren't all the other news channels enough? Nooooo, they have to broadcast locally, and screw everything up.

Don't blame Obama for that one. NBC and Notre Dame have had this sickoid love affair going on for a loong time.

Zetterberg was a beast today. Also enjoyed watching Sammy, Helm, Franzen (the goal part) & Cleary :)

I think the Hawks got out played and both pf their goals were very lucky.

You can't deny it was a bad goal by osgood, yet he bailed the team later on so... it's better.

No s***, Shirley....

And I can always be grateful that you have nothing whatsoever to do with the Red Wings' team.

Bulin is a wall. No question. I had previously considered him overrated.

Coming in way after the fact, and without having read past this post...(yet)....

But your previous opinion was correct.

All you have to do is give it time.....

(okay....back to reading the thread)

Bulin is the most beatable goalie the wings will face this playoff.

That being said, I thought the Wings would have a major struggle today with the inevitable downer from coming off the 7 game series with Anaheim. I was quite impressed with the wings getting it going after 1/2 of the 1st period.

I was at the game. Builn, was beside himself after the sammy goal. Was totally frustrated. smashing his mask with his gloves. talking to himself. Mentally, The wings have his number. He is shaky....

If it was not for the Hacks so so defense, This series will go Sweep.

Look, here's the thing. I normally hate Sammy. Hate him. I think he's one of the most frustrating players in the league.

He has been OUTSTANDING in the playoffs. I really love him right now. The Samuelsson/Hudler/Filppula line has been really great tonight.

And when you think about all the poor shots on Khabi in this game, that one was a laser. Up and angled.

Cleary back to back 1st stars, woo!

I heard he was plus 12?! I think I also heard that's better than anybody else, but since I don't pay enough attention to that stuff, I don't know fer sure.

Their top two guys played 15 minutes.

What does that tell you about how well Chicago can play.

Question is, why do you/we think Coach Q only played them that amount of time? I dont' get it... :blink:

Let's not get cocky guys... the Hawks have had games like this in each of their series so far, and they won both of those series.

I'm reserving my cockiness for when we've got them in a strangle hold.

At the bar all day, thought I'd weigh in.

I thought the Hawks were good in the first 4 minutes, about 2 mins of the 2nd and about 5 minutes of the 3rd.

I'm not even going to talk about the first 'Hawks' goal, I just hope I don't see another one for the rest of my life.

I'm not going to get all cocky either, but if our top 3 players step up, we will crush the Hawks in 4.

The only player I felt was playing poorly was Hossa....terrible, terrible passing, especially in the neutral zone.
