Jenny 315 Report post Posted April 16, 2010 Definitely approve of putting Abby in for J-Wil. Abby provided instant energy when he was in the lineup in last year's playoffs, and I've got no reason to doubt he'll do the same again! Also agree with Titanium2's post above about Helm and Eaves having playoff PK jitters. I never even thought about it-- I was focused on how Howard would do-- but you're right, it makes perfect sense that they'd be not quite there. Now that they've been through one playoff game, though, I expect tomorrow night to be much better for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zombi 43 Report post Posted April 16, 2010 Abby is going to do some damage tomorrow. He feels like he really needs to prove himself and that all of Detroit is counting on him to take some Coyotes out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoWings1905 2,694 Report post Posted April 16, 2010 I bet that was Williams last game wearing a winged wheel. I was hoping that back in 2007 too. This is a great move though getting Abdelkader in there. The last time I saw this much of a clear consensus on LGW was when the Wings signed Williams last summer. 1 Nev reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

russianswede919293 95 Report post Posted April 16, 2010 I have felt since the move was announced last year, that pulling Abby out of the line-up in the finals cost the Wings the cup last year. Think his gritty style will get us the win tonight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
