SDavis35 140 Report post Posted November 12, 2011 I don't mean any disrespect but the defence this year is far superior than that under the late McCrimmon's defensive scheme. Very impressed with Jimmy as well, he's been a huge part of it. I only really feel uncomfortable with our 3rd pairing right now, but they're young so I don't mind. And again... go Jimmy!

Red Wings Addict 787 Report post Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) Terrible giveaway by BigRig there. I don't mean to bash Big E too much. In all seriousness, overall he played a good game. That picture though is just too funny. Edited November 12, 2011 by Red Wings Addict 2 Nevermind and RWRNHZ40 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jusek 437 Report post Posted November 12, 2011 Kronner's blast was a beauty! Hank's saucer pass to Fil's goal was gorgeous too and Jimmy Howard rocks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toefuzz 58 Report post Posted November 12, 2011 Why is that? I picked up season tickets to Notre Dame this year so I will be busy on a lot of Friday and Saturday nights. As for everyone else, maybe it's just early in the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z and D for the C 712 Report post Posted November 12, 2011 Guys, I'm pretty much a TV star. You can totally see my back/head after Filppula's goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to see our third pairing be Helm, Abdelkader and Eaves, with a fourth line of Brunnstrom, Miller and Emmerton. Hudler doesn't fit in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think your being disrespectful because it is true. I really do think that this scheme has been working out very well for the Wings and if it keeps up I think we will make a run for Lord Stanley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Opie 308 Report post Posted November 13, 2011 I think the biggest difference is that Stuart Kronwall being the real #1 pairing and Lids have a really solid D partner in White. White is solid on both ends, he is no Raf in the O zone, but then again he is no Raf in the D zone either! The top 2 pairings are better defensively than they have been in a long time, even before Schnieds I think. Sure they are not as offensively gifted, but Kronner is off to a great start. I do think though that the lack of another PP d-man with Lids is hurting the pp though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reds4Life 51 Report post Posted November 13, 2011 I'd like to see our third pairing be Helm, Abdelkader and Eaves, with a fourth line of Brunnstrom, Miller and Emmerton. Hudler doesn't fit in. Hudler Helm Abdelkader has been our second best line in the last few games. Thanks to Hudler, that line is semi-dangerous offensively. If you removed Hudler, it would make the line worse. 1 Zeowingsfan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
