Electrophile 3,554 Report post Posted November 4, 2011 I think we need to talk Scotty Bowman into coming out of retirement and being a bench coach or something this season, because if he's on the bench barking obscenities and threats at the players, they'll get their asses in gear. Anything to make him shut up. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dat's sick 1,002 Report post Posted November 4, 2011 We need to get rid of Lidstrom. He just isn't a good fit for this team with his good play. Bring in Lebda, he'd look just right with the other guys on this team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DRW Dominance 255 Report post Posted November 4, 2011 bad period by detroit, at least play physical or something, don't just skate around and do absolutely nothing +1 i was just texting a friend trying to explain the wings play and this sums it up perfectly. if you're gonna suck complete ass at least put a little effort in it. this team could care less. it's really effing frustrating. are they tuning out babcock? everyone seems disinterested. they all suck so bad though there isn't even trade bait.

DatsyukianDangles122 16 Report post Posted November 4, 2011 Could we miss the playoffs? I have no doubt that we'll eventually pick it up, but if we lost 10 or more straight..it will be nearly impossible to make those points up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted November 4, 2011 The Wings are suffering from ennui. And I miss mindfly's posts about Howard because of s*** like this. That was a horrible goal, and was the last thing this fragile team needed at this point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have no doubt that we'll eventually pick it up, but if we lost 10 or more straight..it will be nearly impossible to make those points up. Considering we're this bad when healthy, I'd say it's possible. What happens when a few people go down, like they have in the past few seasons?

What happens when a few people go down, like they have in the past few seasons? I agree. Honestly, you can't even say anything bad on these boards, because everyone just flames you for overreacting and being an 'entitled' fan. Well, I'm not overreacting. I'm not angry that they won't make the playoffs, and I'm not raging over the play. I'm simply pointing out the possibility. In the Cap Era, every team has to rebuild, no matter how good you are. And right now this team needs an injection of youth talent and players that work hard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Electrophile 3,554 Report post Posted November 4, 2011 You know that line in Richard III - "A horse, a horse.....my kingdom for a horse!" Well, take out the word "horse" and substitute "goal", and that's how I feel right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Electrophile 3,554 Report post Posted November 4, 2011 I wasn't offended, just standing up for my gender 'tis all. I can't ice skate, have never played a drop of hockey ever in my life, not even in a video game, and I'm confident I could beat them the way they're playing right now.

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted November 4, 2011 Bertuzzi vs Iginla would be something to spark the team, we're playing with no energy. And as much as I'd like to see Commodore/Jackman it probably wouldn't amount to much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
