haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted October 3, 2009 In that case, it's a good thing we don't have more North Americans on our team for the other games. Exactly! Maybe that's the key to the Wings success. Get a bunch of european players who don't have a lot of family around as a distraction from hockey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Broken 16 381 Report post Posted October 3, 2009 Wow. Williams just undressed that defenseman. Edit: and it was Jackman! No surprise... Jackman is a slug. Howard looks worse than I had hoped. Much worse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doc Holiday 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2009 Well done for Cleary for turtling once in a wings jersey :thumbsup: Helm doesnt "f*** s*** up." And Abdelkader only seems to in the AHL. Hitting isnt "******* s*** up." Well for starters Cleary stood up to a guy much bigger than himself, had his eye gouged and still got a few punches in, Helm has made some good hits, and Abdelkader has been pretty gritty from my perspective. And hitting doesn't f*** s*** up? You truly are blinded by your man-love for the enforcer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted October 3, 2009 What did those great Wings scouts ever see in Howard? I guess we suck at scouting North American players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
55fan 5,133 Report post Posted October 3, 2009 The worst thing against us is that the Blues are playing with focus this period. We were better off when they were losing their cool, sitting in the box and paying more attention to homer than to getting rebounds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyphoenix 153 Report post Posted October 3, 2009 We cant score 5 goals a game in order to win. Our goalies need to get a lot better than they are right now, especially Osgood who was especially bad in the preseason games he played and now especially bad in his first game of the season. Howard, I never expected to be great, but he showed some promise in the preseason to be decent as a backup. Letting in 4 goals on about 20 shots is just unacceptable.

Hitting isnt "******* s*** up." Wtf are you talking about? cleary's not a fighter, but the guy is pretty much the definition of grit. Are you talking about this fight? because that's not turtling.
