11/12 GDT: Canucks 1 at Red Wings 3

[Namingway 146]

Awesome, good to see Jimmy get that 1st star! He's been great for us.

Anyways good game! It was good to see us get the W when it looked like the Nucks were outplaying us for the most part of the game.

[Pavel Hossyukstrom 2]

Vancouver's announcers said Z didn't do anything all game. Erm...he's the only player with 2 points.

Wow! Barely made it across!

yeah I noticed that too!! Are they that stupid in Vancouver? I thought the anouncers were suppose to actually watch the game?

[hankzet40 233]

If you was Babs you knew that Osgood is not feeling well and that they might need to stick with Howard.

Oh I knew but even when Ozzie is healthy, if Jimmy is still playing well I'd stick with him.

[wingfan1991 221]

great win! huge win! Z does it on Stevie Y night

[commadore183 103]

3-1 Wings defeat the Canucks. Goals from Holmstrom, Zetterberg, and Kronwall! Howard gets an assist to go with his second consecutive W. Wings are 9-5-3 on the season with 21 points! Canucks are winless at the Joe since 2006 (I think).

[BlueMonk 102]

Wow, nice win under less than ideal schedule circumstances. The Wings got an energy boost when Z scored the go-ahead, but before that, they didn't touch the puck for what seemed like a period and a half.

Jimmy Howard looked really good. I love the tougher edge of this team. They don't get pushed around physically with this lineup.

Z's goal was beautiful. Kind of a nice "f**k you" to Kesler, who was going at him pretty good, both physically and verbally.

[brett 1,029]

If only Miller had scored...

If Ozzie was in net tonight, I have a feeling we would have lost this 5-2. GOOD WIN, feels sooo weird to win a game that was practically won by the goalie.

[Heroes of Hockeytown 694]

On a night when they didn't have their legs for most of it (with the notable exception of Hank and Pavel, who were typically excellent), they managed to find a way to win. Howard was great, I give him full props for a solid outing and back to back Ws.

[Guest Four]

Has the flu, just like everyone else on this planet it seems haha.

Aha no kidding.

Atleast it's more of Howard, who is on a streak.

I only saw a little of the game, missed a lot. Commentators make it sound like we were getting owned.

First time all season we have more wins than losses

[VM1138 1,921]

We're in the playoff race now!

And with tonight's loss, the Penguins are winless in 4

Actually it ended up 32- 29 so wouldn't exactly say killed. We played good in the 2nd and 3rd.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

If I was Vancouver, I'd be pissed. They definately carried the play for most of the night.

[hokike 1]

Seems that their complacency mode has on/off switch.

today it was "on" yet they still won.

wings were lucky team today.

The Wings got an energy boost when Z scored the go-ahead, but before that, they didn't touch the puck for what seemed like a period and a half.

Naah, it wasn't that one-sided. They actually out-shot Canucks in both of the last two periods (13-11 and 11-6).

wings got outplayed and still won somehow

That's what it's like when you've got a hot goalie.

[egroen 384]

If I had to make an 'awesome' group, it would contain Datsyuk, Eaves and Helm. Abdelkader is the first reserve.

And the late, great... Patrick Swayze.

[VanDer 58]

That will do wonders for Howards confidence

[VM1138 1,921]

Only 1 point behind Chicago for Central Division lead and #3 in the West!

[P. Marlowe 748]

If Ozzie was in net tonight, I have a feeling we would have lost this 5-2.

That's because you're a Wings fan. In reality he would've probably played a good game just like he's done for a couple of weeks now, minus the Toronto game.

[Pavel Hossyukstrom 2]

haha Nashville and St Louis playing for the basement tonight! it's 1-1 in the 3rd

edit 2-1 Nashville

looks like they may overtake the Blues out of the basement.

Only saw the 3rd, but enjoyed it. Gotta see Mays fight, Dad told me she was a dandy. Wings are gonna be a tough draw in the playoffs should they make it, they battle hard now, and the 3rd and 4th lines are just great. Hitting, forechecking, speed, turnovers, love it.
