9/26 Pre-season GDT: New York Rangers at Red Wings

[ShanahanMan 473]

If there are two things that the Wings have been unusually poor at the last few years (especially considering their high level of offensive talent), it would be 5-on-3 power plays and 2-on-1 rushes.

Completely agree

Oh, I agree. It would be nice, though, if they would improve in that aspect over the years. Power plays are important in any game and it's frustrating when they can't score when there's a two man advantage.

Their puck movement on the 5 on 3 was pretty damn good though, they could have easily beat Biron multiple times so its a start I guess. I dunno how no one knocked that puck outta the air though into the net, was pretty damn close.

Yeah if I was on the ice while taking those directions from Babcock I wouldn't know what the hell to do.

[Vladifan 680]

This stupid ******* league needs to clarify the rules. Is having skates in the blue illegal or something?

It's insane right now. Last season you'd see opponents not only in the crease but practically sitting on the goalie and their goals would count. This time, Homer's blade tips were in the crease NO WHERE NEAR the goalie. They've got to get that figured out or they're gonna lose any credibility they had left. Anybody just getting into watching hockey will not believe the stupid, inconsistent s*** that goes on out there with the calls.

anybody else think this was starting at 7 and just now tuning in? haha damn my lack of attention to detail!

I was thinking the same thing. I'd be the guy who slows up the whole thing by asking him to re-explain it and show me what to do, lol.

Great, they're playing the same old commercials from last season and the one before that. FS Detroit needs to update them already.

I hope the Bernstein ones will disappear too.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Also, please no Bernstein ads on the glass this year.

[Jasper84 333]

Homer gets it back!

[Hockeymom1960 5,107]

WHOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!

[Heroes of Hockeytown 694]

Bit of a softy. Cosmic justice I guess.

[syntax 359]

Yay Homer!!!

Call that one off, *******!

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

[RWRNHZ40 18]

Homer!! Can't take that one back!

[drumnj 459]

I don't know Homer may have been too close to the goalie

[puckloo39 5,686]

thanks, Homie!!

[Wingers17 8]

How come that wasn't waived off

[dragonballgtz 273]

That was a pretty weak goal to let in.

I wonder what would happen if Homer did say that to the refs?

[Jasper84 333]

Huds ripped that one

[Guest mindfly]

Z is flying

[edicius 3,269]

Aw damn it, what did I miss?

[germanwing 154]

Homer!

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Aw damn it, what did I miss?

Homer scoring a softie. Like someone else said, comic justice.

[puckloo39 5,686]

Aw damn it, what did I miss?

only a one-per-season event: a goal by Holmstrom which was NOT waived off.
