[hankzet40 233]

s***. Well we played well enough to win this game but we got some bad breaks.

[ShanahanMan 473]

absolute bulls***.

[Marty Barry 230]

I hope they get big heads, beating us 9 men down.

[brett 1,029]

meh good game bert dats homer and jimmy

wish we coulda got a point

[Jesusberg 1,256]

Ugly way to lose... I knew it wouldn't be too long until the referees stopped our streak.

[Guest mindfly]

Howard... 4goals on not that many shots... just simply isn't good enough.

[RedWingsRox 614]

good game but damn ... Dallas is on our tail in the standings too.

[Guest Lidstromboli]

lol @ ref blaming

we probably would've been down by more than 1 if they had called everything against the wings in the first

My gosh. You sound like an ohio state buckeye fan from the university of ohio state.

[commadore183 103]

Refs f***ed us over after the time went off the clock after the whistle and they didn't put it back up. ******* ridiculous the officiating today. Obvious slashes let go and the time not being put back on the clock. Sucks that the D wasn't there. Gave up 2 points to the Stars, which we don't need.

Red Wings: 3

Stars: 4

Final

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

We needed these points and couldnt get them. Our top line came to play, outside of the final save on Ribeiro, Howard was bad, and we continue to get nothing from the backend. We need to get some saves and a little action on the point or tommorow is another loss.

[55fan 5,133]

Well, that stunk, but that's the way the puck bounces.

Would have been nice to win, though.

Good to have Helm back. He gives some great energy, and Pavel and Tuzzi are looking to have good chemistry.

See you folks next game.

[GMRwings1983 8,804]

Bad loss. We needed points in this game.

Howard took a big step back. He needs to stay in his crease and stop acting like Marty Turco out there.

[ShanahanMan 473]

Can't really fault the team on this one except for Lebda, who's once again the goat. Loses his man on the 4th goal and then falls down on that breakaway they just had.

Dallas did not deserve the W thats for sure. Ohh well you still have to be happy for the effort this depleted team is putting forth night in and out.

Lebda is not a goat.

He's an ass.

s***ty way to lose, wasting that effort from Pavel, in a game they had to have, against a foe they couldn't afford to give points to. Man, this sucks.

Lately it's been only our 4th line coming to play, now just our 1st.

[dat's sick 1,002]

No secondary scoring = difficult to win. We can't count on Miller, Eaves and other 3rd/4th liners to chip in goals every other game.

Datsyuk and Bert were awesome though.. I hope this was the turning point for Pav, we need him to play like this every game while Z is out for us to even have a chance.

Really wanted a point from this game, but I can't be upset that we didn't get it.. we should have gotten a few more PP's though.

Now the games against Chicago become even more important.

[ShanahanMan 473]

good game but damn ... Dallas is on our tail in the standings too.

On our tail? We're tied with them now. Thats why this game was such a needed win.

[GMRwings1983 8,804]

This lineup will be depleted a long time.

If effort is all they'll put forth, they won't make the playoffs. They're gonna have to suck it up and keep winning like everyone else in the West is doing.

[Yellowknife Redwing 57]

That was a very well played game by both teams, no reason to be pissed off about the effort in this one. You can't win em all.

[Marty Barry 230]

Lebda is not a goat.

He's an ass.

A goatse.

[ShanahanMan 473]

Better drink plenty of red bulls tomorrow. It's gonna be a very VERY tough game to win.
