Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted December 24, 2010 I guess the moral of the story is, stop giving up four goals every single night. 2 haroldsnepsts and WizardOfOz30 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted December 24, 2010 Whole team needs shooting lessons. I guess Zetteberg figures his 2 goals last night excuse him from playing dominant tonight and probably for the next few games. Too many players just didn't show up.

puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted December 24, 2010 I am sad. Wings played hard, but no breaks, no calls, no help at all. They almost pulled it off. Good try, boyz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted December 24, 2010 Flip just wanted to actually get his hands on a puck. Where's his boy to defend him for that pointless play? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted December 24, 2010 Flip took his time there, but so did Mike in pulling Ozzie. They had an offensive zone faceoff with two minutes left, perfect opportunity right there, and then waited and waited and waited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted December 24, 2010 Wow, complete domination in the 3rd. Prime chances for Hudler, Ericsson and Kronwall. Sucks to give such a huge effort and lose. The first was horrible, but afterwards they really came out to play, and we should've tied it up with the last 10 minutes being spent only in attack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Howard He Do It?! Report post Posted December 24, 2010 Flip just wanted to actually get his hands on a puck. Where's his boy to defend him for that pointless play? Because it really mattered? Was anyone open for a pass or would you rather Flip just wiz the puck out of the zone recklessly so you can rail on him for that? Just complaining to complain. 1 Z and D for the C reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who cares at that point if something bad results? We're down by a goal. We've had enough late goals over the last few years to prove that it's possible. It's like throwing the ball out of bounds on 4th down. May as well take a chance with 10 seconds left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Heaten Report post Posted December 24, 2010 Gutsy effort by the Wings. They made Blues look stupid for over 40 minutes. Red Wings should have won this one. Nobody to blame other than playing the night before and starting off slow. Can't blame the team, this was a scheduled loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody to blame other than playing the night before and starting off slow. Can't blame the team, this was a scheduled loss. Bad excuse. Teams have owned us several times this year when they were playing back to back. Not to mention, we'll have lots of back to back games coming up. I hope Babcock isn't preaching the same stuff you are to the team, otherwise there's already plenty of built in excuses. The team lost because their point coverage stunk and they gave up too many odd man rushes on the PP instead of having chances of their own. 1 Aussie_Wing reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragonballgtz 273 Report post Posted December 24, 2010 Why the f*** was Ozzie left in the net for so long? The Wings had the puck in the offensive zone with clear possession for 30+ seconds and the net isn't empty. Joke. Yeah, what was funny is when he finally decided to pull Ozzie we lost possession in the corner. I cannot believe that Hudler decided to pass the puck back when he had a clear shot to the net late in the 3rd. My jaw just dropped when that happened. Turnovers tonight killed the Wings. I am disappointed in Flips response to tonight's game. With Dats out he needs to be a go to guy but he isn't stepping up like he should/could. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
