Cleary is 0 for 4 this season genius. Prior to this game Flip #2 on the team of players who have more than 1 attempt.

career numbers.

[Z and D for the C]

Not to mention Filppula is 2 for 2 on penalty shots, I believe.

So really, he's 3 for 7. 43%

20% in the shootout.

period.

pretty sad when a team that's already out of the playoff race wants to win more than a team still fighting for a playoff spot. wings showed their true colors, yet again. PATHETIC!!!! worst team in the nhl, a goalie whose never won an game in the nhl, wings come out sucking their thumbs. in-*******-excusable. guess they shouldn't have spent the last threef****** days on vacation in whatever resort town they were in in b.c.! get a clue babcock! this team needs to work!!!!!!

[hak]

That he is better in the shootout than all of them?

i dont agree, in such an important moment i would want a player who's scored more than 51 career goals

[GoWings1905]

Filppula over Mule and Bert?

I don't get it - Filppula has no goal scoring touch whatsover. Horrible decision by Babcock at the worst time.

[VanDer]

keep the heads up Detroit! big game tomorrow night, believe we can we and we will win! BELIEVE!!

43% on 1 vs goalie.

Shoot outs are 1 vs goalie.

It's relevant. Sorry your point isn't strong anymore.

In case anyone hasn't noticed, Calgary is playing pretty good hockey right now having beat the preds and sharks in their last 2. This is by no means over, and, Vancouver is next. There is just way too much dead weight on this team at the forward position.

Right on with the dead weight comment
Please send Bertuzzi to a nursing home of your choice He plays like he weighs 150 lbs and hasnn't completed a pass in games

[Yzermania]

Yah I don't know why babs doesn't use franzen...and as an odd choice, I'd try raffy in a shootout, the guy has a seriously wicked wrister and can pick the top corner pretty often.

[GoWings1905]

I knew it was over when I saw Filppula on the ice... really Babcock?

No kidding. What the hell has Filppula done to earn that? Did his whopping eight goals promote him to sniper status for the shootout?

Puzzling move with Johan Franzen and Todd Bertuzzi sitting on your bench.

[eva unit zero]

Let's take a look here...the top shootout shooters dressed tonight were, just based on my opinion:

Datsyuk
Zetterberg
Williams
Franzen
Lidstrom
Cleary
Bertuzzi
Rafalski
Eaves
Filppula
Kronwall
Miller
Holmstrom
Helm
Ericsson
Draper
Stuart
Lilja

Now, that's just my opinion...but Flip is in the bottom half of that list. He's behind two defensemen and seven forwards. Why the hell was he out there? The guy can pass. Who is he passing to on the shootout, Mike? Maybe Babcock is confused and forgot that it was Hudler who was really good at shootouts, not Filppula.

[lilja4mvp]

who combines shoootut% and penlaty shot %?

no one, except delusional fans of borderline 2nd line forwards.

[Hatchet Barry]

Ohh I believe they can win tomorrow. I believe they can win agianst every team, I just don't know if they believe in themsleves that they can win. that being said, tomorrows game is so massive. To me, they'll show us Wings fans if they want it enough after tomorrows game. Monday against the Pens at home isn't going to get any easier. But, like you said BELIEVE!

I think bert plays like he weighs 350 pounds, the guy is unbelievably slow out there. Though, flip, hank and cleary aren't what you would call impressive either,

YEAH MIKE HOW ON EARTH AREN'T YOU LISTENING TO EVA'S ORDER. IT'S THE END ALL BE ALL

Again, shootouts and penalty shots are the exact same scenario. you're just even more pissy than normal that Flip has better statistics in this regard than you thought.

Devils are pretty much in the playoffs, they are not desperate for every single point.

Wings on the other hand had 2 of the easiest points on the schedule and they lamed them away, they got 1 charity point.

Wings need every point they can get and losing to the last place team when ur in that position is laughable and says a lot about the team and "how bad they want it."

Look at Calgary taking care of business against way better competition.

Anything else you want me to put you in your place about???

if devils didnt care about the points or winning they wouldnt have used broduer. dont tell me theyre not gonna try their hardest to win each and every game like all the other team in the league. wings should have capitalized yeah but they didnt. s*** happens. it wasnt the goalie who won the game for them it was the wings failing to capitalize. they carried the game after the first. wings arent the team they use to be. props to calgary but the sharks have been dropping games lately 5 in a row now...so i wouldnt call them better competition when their obv struggling.

Agreed. That statement becomes more obvious each game. He's nothing more than a defensively solid third line center that can't score goals to save his life.

[uk_redwing]

The Red Wings are not going to make the playoffs...!!!!

We heard you the first time.

I don't know WTF has happend to Cleary. I don't know if he's got some personal issues going on with him or what but he's definitely not the same player out there right now, and that's very worrisome.
