Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 I can't believe an absolute grinder like Miller is on Filppula's line. Am I the only one who has a serious problem with that?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus's Garden 147 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 Um, what did he do exactly? A breakaway and PP goal? Not much you can do about those... What did he do to stay in? Shaky defense, yes, but it's still 4 goals in 30 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 Franzen could handle Burrows in a fight, but I really wanna see Ericsson or Bertuzzi get the team going. Just grab someone, a goalie switch and a fight is all you can do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Howard He Do It?! Report post Posted March 4, 2010 Ericsson needs to beat somebody down. It's not like the Wings are going to miss him for the 5 minutes he is off of the ice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dat's sick 1,002 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 I can't believe an absolute grinder like Miller is on Filppula's line. Am I the only one who has a serious problem with that?! What can we do? We have too many grinders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 I can't believe an absolute grinder like Miller is on Filppula's line. Am I the only one who has a serious problem with that?! I love Miller, but I agree. Danny and Fil are playing pretty well just not getting many bounces, and Miller doesnt seem to really gel on this line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Electrophile 3,554 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 (edited) This seems appropriate.... some of it is EERILY relevant too... I don't care how many times I watch it, it still cracks me up. Although considering how the Wings are playing tonight, perhaps Yakety Sax would make better sense. Edited March 4, 2010 by Electrophile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Howard He Do It?! Report post Posted March 4, 2010 What did he do to stay in? Shaky defense, yes, but it's still 4 goals in 30 minutes. Pulling Howard is more of a move to spark the team than to punish Howard. You are not going to blame Howard for a screened PP goal, an excellent breakaway goal and a mid-air deflection circus shot.

edicius 3,269 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 What did he do to stay in? Shaky defense, yes, but it's still 4 goals in 30 minutes. 4 goals on 22 shots too. Brodeur got crucified for that (rightly so) in the Olympics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jedi 1,865 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 Pulling Howard is more of a move to spark the team than to punish Howard. You are not going to blame Howard for a screened PP goal, an excellent breakaway goal and a mid-air deflection circus shot. That was my exact thought too. Though Howard's numbers weren't good tonight, he can't be faulted for most of the goals that he allowed. Getting Ozzie in serves 2 purposes. Spark the team, and get Ozzie some ice time, which he needs since we can't expect Howard to play every game from here on out. PP coming up. We can cut the lead here boys. Let's grab the goal.

Electrophile 3,554 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 My sister pointed this out to me, and maybe it'll give you guys some comfort. Since the NHL has participated in the Olympics, the years that Sweden didn't win the gold, the Wings have won the Stanley Cup. 1998, 2002......2010? Maybe it's a blessing in disguise that Canada won. Or maybe not, I'm grasping at straws here. :-\ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
