GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted September 27, 2009 Wow, the Leafs really had to hold us off with the goalie pulled, huh? I can't wait for the real games to begin. I feel sorry for those idiot Leafs fans who may actually think their team is as good as their preseason record suggest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted September 27, 2009 That sucked, but to be expected. Eaves did nothing tonight, hope that's not his physical game everyone talks about. Howard was good though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
P. Marlowe 748 Report post Posted September 27, 2009 I liked what I saw from Leino, Fil, Abdelkader, Williams, Howard, Kronwall, Stuart and Lebda. Actually the whole defense was fairly solid, but very few players managed to create any offense. Leino looked like Datsyuk there at times, deking in the corner.

I feel sorry for those idiot Leafs fans who may actually think their team is as good as their preseason record suggest. From the sounds of the CBC commentators it would appear this does infact mean that "The Monster" will carry the leafs straight to the Stanley Cup this season now that they have beaten the Wings twice in a row.

thedatsyukian 7 Report post Posted September 27, 2009 I like how the announcers tried to downplay our lineup tonight. This is against the DETROIT RED WINGS, yes they're missing a few of their vets, but this is still the DETROIT RED WINGS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) Cos Orr would kick May's ass. What does that matter? That's May's job, especially when he's trying to earn his job. Besides, Orr is overrated. Look at his win/loss record. Edited September 27, 2009 by GMRwings1983 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
