10/30 GDT: Predators 2 at Red Wings 5

[dirtydangles 1,328]

solid game. needed a win here. modano has to go though. hudler can be a bigger presence than modano, he is too afraid to get hit, too lazy to skate hard and finish checks.

[titanium2 867]

Is it a one-time thing?

Yeah I'm thinking maybe they should do that for the rest of the season.

[Guest scottj]

the white jerseys always looked so fresh and so clean clean to me compared to the red ones

[pockets 9]

Stop talking.

Momma troll let mindfly come out to play today.

Id be jealous of the bruins too. With all those cups they've won lately.

Eh. I'm used to the red sweaters at home now, but I like the white every now and then.

[Guest Stolberg]

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Just glad they got the win tonight.

Going to update the Eaves thread? Hopefully someone got a picture of his crazy smile again.

God Rich Rod sucks...he's the Matt Millen of UofM football.

Sorry, watching the UM vs PennSt game and needed to vent..

[Guest mindfly]

Ritola with 1st career goal against phoenix.

[Konnan511 1,736]

Thomas now has:

6-0

.984

0.50

Thomas also has a 5 mil cap hit, care to share how we could shed 5 mil+ in cap space to accommodate him?

[Guest Crymson]

Ritola with 1st career goal against phoenix.

We're doomed.

[Konnan511 1,736]

We're doomed.

Cue the Ritola > Hudler/Modano/Draper/Eaves/Miller threads

i'm eating my crow, as per my first reply post to this thread.

didnt get to see the game, but seems like ozzie played ok?

[Vladifan 680]

They had to because Osgood wasn't in net so they made a huge block to try and stop shots.

If that's the goal I think you're talking about (yeah, it's after the game), he was screened by at least four of his own guys. But who's counting?

Damn ******* Osbad not able to see thru 8 players standing between him and the uncovered shooter from the point.

Yeah, I'm a bit confused as to why Osgood had anything to do with the point being kept wide open on that last goal, and furthermore, given all the room in the world to skate in, unchallenged. He did eventually find himself out of position, but it's mostly because he was the only Wing to challenge on the play, and he may've even been tripped up a bit by a Preds skate in the process.

Last game Ozzie blew it the first. I've got no beef with him in this game.

Whoa, dude. Gotta watch that Logic Thing.

I would have a 5M goalie like thomas and remove a rafalski or similar player, wings would be unstopable... i envy the bruins as you can probably tell

...jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzusssssssssssssssssssss..... :battle:

Texas treatment?

[Broken 16 381]

Don't look now but the Wings are winning a lot of games. A lot of different ways. A very good sign.

[Vladifan 680]

Texas treatment?

Done and done.

Hey, I got back from the game about an hour ago. The arena was about 1/3 empty! Ive never seen so many empty seats at The Joe. I checked the box score and the paid attendance was 18,177, but I wouldn't be surprised if 14,000 showed up. I didn't mind, the concessions lines were fast, it only took a couple minutes to get a hot dog and it was easy to move down to better seats.

Great bounce back game by Ozzie. Nice second goal by Datsyuk, only Dats could score that goal!

[Kira 451]

That second goal was amazing. God, I love that man.

[DatsyukianDekes 2,428]

I understand that, all I was saying is if Osgood stayed inside his crease, that play never would have happened and they might have no scored on that possession. Doesn't matter though, we still won. Osgood played good, I think the team felt comfortable with him in net tonight.
