SuperNovaXll 124 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 Good signs are: Jimmy looks amazing...AGAIN! Our PK looks good. Z and Dats together. Bad signs: Our 3rd line sucks. Preds scored to go up 3-2 over the Pens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 3rd line NEEDS WORK! That's an understatement; third line hasn't done anything in six games. The first line seems to be getting going and the second line is a three-man wrecking crew. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edicius 3,269 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 And the Preds are back up on the Pens again, 3-2. Bert giving props to both Howard and Ozzie. I like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VM1138 1,921 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 That's an understatement; third line hasn't done anything in six games. The first line seems to be getting going and the second line is a three-man wrecking crew. It's time to mix the 3rd and 4th. Modano just seemed to stand around a lot tonight, with a few bursts of decent chances. Hudler, per usual, just sort of disappears, which is good if you're disappearing and scoring, like Brett Hull used to do, or if you're on defense, like Lidstrom tended to do.

Doc Holliday 1,888 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 Great game by Howard. Franzen doing what he does best: scoring. BFF line is amazing. Datsyuk and Zetterberg up to their old tricks. Third line awful. Osgood was pretty weak on the faceoff charts tonight. I expect better from him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) I already can't wait for the playoffs to begin. These last few games have been boring, with not much hitting and certainly not much enthusiasm from the crowd. I guess the stakes have to get higher or something. Maybe this next game will create some more spark. Hopefully. Edited October 22, 2010 by GMRwings1983 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edicius 3,269 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 Osgood was pretty weak on the faceoff charts tonight. I expect better from him. Oh, come on, totally not his fault.

seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 Osgood was pretty weak on the faceoff charts tonight. I expect better from him. We're only a few games into the season, he'll get better. Besides, Ozzie is a proven playoff performer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 Found this hilarious gem from a Flames fan who watched the Detroit feed in regards to Ken and Mick - "Yes. Maybe I'm biased cause I'm in Michigan, but those 2 guys are the WORST homers." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh my God, stop! You're killing me. Besides, Ozzie's got a little rust on him from being stuck on the ice too much and Babs not properly rotating clipboard starts between him and Jimmy.

edicius 3,269 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 Oh, sonuva...Crybaby scored again. Tie game. Watch the Pens rag it until the shootout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
servo 15 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 Best game of the year! Hands down! Dats and Z were unbelievable! Janek was awesome. Howard was very very good. The 3rd line is a bit more cohesive and the 4th line was very good. Specialty teams were very good. Kindl sucked it and Kronwall was bad. Rafi or Big E need to get back soon!

Wingzman91 134 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 Franzen looks better and better everytime he touches the puck. Off-the-Mask, nothing but net. 50 goal season, here come the mule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
