russianswede919293 95 Report post Posted December 16, 2010 Man Hudler looked better yesterday. He is having no luck when he makes chances. He needs to shoot the puck more. Once he scores he can stop pressing as badly and I think his Defense will come around more once that happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titanium2 867 Report post Posted December 16, 2010 He is having no luck when he makes chances. I hope he's not thinking that way right now. Based on where he is today he can't be thinking "Bounces aren't going my way" etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is no order to Babcock's madness this year! Hudler...get your act together! He's been looking really good with Helm. Hudler - Helm - Cleary. I like it a lot. Hudler's been playing very well over the past 2-3 games, and the points will come soon, I'm sure of it. You can see he's working harder, and we've started to see his eye-popping skill level a few times. Last night he made some very skillful moves that almost resulted in goals. He's nearing an offensive explosion, I can feel it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Hatethedrake! Report post Posted December 16, 2010 Forget the offensive explosion. Hudler just needs to score a GOAL and then go from there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He had a fantastic wrist shot, but I just don't see it any more. It's not as if its the same shot and he is missing or getting blocked. It's just not there.

It's not as if its the same shot and he is missing or getting blocked. It's just not there. He could be squeezing the stick too much. He was expected to be a 70 point guy and he's nowhere near that pace. Maybe the pressure is getting to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WingZNut13 99 Report post Posted December 17, 2010 He has been looking better, no one can deny that. I think the only downside to that is Cleary is playing so damn well that anyone that gets around him seems to "look better". I think Cleary has made everyone on that line look better and Helm has been hustling to everything he possibly could. I'm with others, Hudler gets till January and then after that if he is still not performing up to par, a solution needs 2 be found to improve the team and make sure the Wings are ready to make a run for Lord Stanley's Cup.

daniel1 32 Report post Posted December 17, 2010 He did look better last game and Helm's hustle rubs off on him I think so maybe keep the two of them together for a few games. Helm was amazing last game, he could really break out if he could work on his shot strength and location. His speed and hustle get him loads of chances it's just his finish that needs work. If Hudler could get a couple tap-ins maybe that would pick up his overall game. Here's hoping it's tonight against Chicago! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crymson Report post Posted December 18, 2010 (edited) Period one so far: The good: Hudler took a shot! The bad: Hudler chose yet again to curl away and pass rather than drive the net. Period 2 The good: Hudler made a decent pass The bad: He chose to pass when he had a wide-open net to shoot the puck into. Doh..
