4/3 GDT: Predators 4 at Red Wings 3 (OT)

[DirtyD 38]

Overall a pretty brutal game for every forward that wasn't Datsyuk, Franzen, or Holmstrom.

[Z and D for the C 712]

He led all forwards for ice by by a lot (almost 2 minutes), but probably Flip's worst game in a while. -3

[brett 1,029]

way to go stuart!

thanks datsyuk for the point. theyre ahead of us for now...

[b.shanafan14 733]

Bad game for the Wings, thanking their lucky stars for a point. Absolutely sloppy everywhere.

[RedWingedKitten 9]

Well, it's hard to be any more out of position by all 4 players and the goaltender, but wow that was something else. Didnt show up all game, got a charity point, we better hope we can solve Boucher or Caron tommorow.

Didn't show up all game?

Trade Datsyuk and Lidstrom.

there goes the winning streak....

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

Bert played with some piss and vinegar and had 8 shots, but that line was pretty awful all night. The Datsyuk line and the Lidstrom pair got us the point, everyone needs to play better. We need Danny back to round out the lines, and for the Gods to let Ozzie have a good game tommorow.

[55fan 5,133]

There was a time this year when we'd have been tickled to get that point. As much as it would have been nice to win, at least it wasn't a straight-out loss.

[brett 1,029]

well now we cant blame ozzie for losing our streak! good news after all

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

How can you give up such an easy 4 on 4 goal? When it's 4 on 4, you basically play man to man defense?

How hard is that to figure out?

[HockeytownRules19 902]

Oh well... good time for a break for Jimmy. Looks like he needs it... Let's go Ozzie get us 2 pts tomorrow!

GO WINGS! Shake it off!

[8 Legged RedWing 367]

Howard REALLY needs tomorrow off... This is where we need Ozzie to step up big. I will take the point I guess... we still have 2 more games then them.

Let's put GMR on the ice! He has 360-degree vision!

Because all it takes is one shot for the other team to win all the time, it doesn't matter who we play. We can have 20,000 shots on goal in OT and the other team gets one shot and boom in our net.

What do you expect when Lilja isn't out there?

[Guest Lidstromboli]

cool a point

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

Don't know what's so funny about that.

There was no reason for two guys to go after the puck and for Kronwall to be standing on the other side of the ice.

The forwards just need to take the D-men there.

[bdavis 28]

I walk away for a few seconds and the game is over... They were taking it hard to Nashville right before the OT. How the hell?

Well it wasn't that great of an angle shot. If he had gotten in closer it may have been an issue but he just fired it almost as soon as he got it.

Point is that he shouldn't have been that open to begin with.

It was a good shot, but you can't really blame Howard for not stopping a guy that was skating in on him unabated.

I'm not going to "blame" Howard, but it was a stoppable shot. The defense was terrible and Howard wasn't "great" tonight. He needs a rest.

the Hockey gods work in mysterious ways, Leino with the gw tomorrow anyone?

oh HELL NO!

[Heroes of Hockeytown 694]

Howard was off his angle on the game-winner, but the other goals were no big deal -- pucks flying in through screens and bouncing in off defenders, it happens. The whole team was stifled badly by the forecheck and neutral zone play, whereas the Preds seemed to get a free pass out of their zone every breakout. Lucky to get a point out of it, but the Wings should be okay.
