4/6 GDT: Red Wings 0 at Hurricanes 3

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

They did in 2002 when they won 1 game in their last 10 and then lost the first two in the first round of the playoffs. Course, no one remembers that string of s*** performances.

That's always something to remember.

You're missing McCrimmon. He's probably first.

I just used the top 6. McCrimmon would be #7. His defense is only blamed every 3-4 games. Howard and the Refs are hourly occurrences.

[8 Legged RedWing 367]

Good goal, but a pretty iffy call.

That's a major understatement. The puck was kicked in by Hossa and clearly did not cross the line. I'm baffled as to how that goal counts.

[chief 4]

Thanks for the good words.

I wish the Wings well, we know the Rangers are not really going to make much noise, we just kinda know deep down that we're just not ready yet. We were hoping for a little help tonight getting the Canes off our behind.

No bad blood between Wings and Rangers because we never meet each other much. LOL

If my guys can't win it, I hope the Wings do. We effing hate the Flyers and Pens, so if you go against them, kick their butt.

First we need the Wings to get out of the west before I say that but I hope you prosper!

Good luck my friends.

Did you really just compare that team with this team? LOL

Yeah, that was a much, much better team back then.

This. That should not have counted.

I'm baffled at your baffledness.

[Firehawk 305]

And Ill bring it up, why not:

Howard yet again gives up 3 goals .

Not going to bag on him tonight, I just had to say it.

Kill the shutout plz!

[wingslogo19 281]

Ward has played pretty well tonight

[LadyInRed 33]

Howard is playing good. I'm gaining more confidence in him the closer we get to playoffs. The goals were not his fault at all.

I don't know if its just me, but I'm not that mad at our potential loss tonight.. I think hurricanes deserve this one, especially Cam Ward

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

No shutout, please?

[Firehawk 305]

This. That should not have counted.

If it were the wings it would not have counted.

[P. Marlowe 748]

Yawn! Some announcer said once that hockey is always entertaining.

[syntax 359]

.922 save percentage doesn't lie. Probably top 8 in the league.

Sad but true.

Easily the driving force behind their Cup win in 06.

[Firehawk 305]

Wings players should take note of how the Hurricanes clear that puck right out of their zone along the boards. SMART. LEARN RED WING DEFENSE!

You all forgot this fundamental the last, oh, 70 games.

[Nightfall 871]

Yeah, that was a much, much better team back then.

How about 2007-08 then when they dropped 10 of 11 straight games.

Point is that crap happens in the regular season. The playoffs are a different animal. You should know that by now. The Wings may not go all the way this year, but I forsee a conference finals appearance this year.

[P. Marlowe 748]

Wings are flipping the puck out from their zone like they're the ones protecting the lead. Well, in a way they are.

[wingslogo19 281]

.922 save percentage doesn't lie. Probably top 8 in the league.

Yeah I'd say he's right up there for sure.. He was wanting that shut out

You must be mistaking this forum for a real hockey forum then. There is no hockey talk here. 75% of the users here are only on board for the Wings to win. The moment they look weak, they start bitching. We aren't talking about bitching about legit problems, just spouting crap like "Howard sucks" or "Refs suck" when neither are the issues. If you are going to rag on someone for not talking hockey, man up and make a meaningful hockey post then. Don't defend some dork who says "Howard sucks" and another user barks at him for it.

No s*** there is no meaningful hockey talk in a game day thread. This your first time in one?

That's the truth...the fact they always seem to forget there's a 3rd dimension to a hockey rink bugs me too.

Oh well....not a good game for us.....especially with what happened to Hank.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Hawks tie it.

Wonder what it's like to get a gift from the official.

I'm shocked to see people get upset at players when the team starts playing poorly.

Just shocked. I'll be sure to only talk positively about things no matter what.
