Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted November 18, 2011 Ummmmm....any ideas? Maybe steal Harry Potter's invisibility cloak to have a few extra guys out there? (Not Zetterberg or Cleary though) Anything else?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lookalive07 251 Report post Posted November 18, 2011 1) get our heads out of our asses and start playing as hard as they do. 2) sign parise and suter this off-season. I like both of these ideas. Even though we looked like we were playing pretty dominant with the puck in the first period. It's almost like we said "oh, let's give up now, I guess" after Pavelski scored at the end of the 1st. And for the 2nd idea...I don't understand why we don't try to go after these guys or players like them right now (and if someone can tell me why we wouldn't be able to obtain them now, I'm all ears...not too familiar with contracts and whatnot). We clearly need a little stronger offense and defense considering the majority of our players seem to be struggling out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted November 18, 2011 saw a "rumour" on HF boards about carter requesting a trade out of CLB. clb fans said it would take a top 4 defenseman (ericsson?) plus top 6 player (cleary? (hudler wont work)) and pick/prospect (1st?) to get him. carter, plus suter and parise would result in us destroying SJ. jus sayin. this current lineup cant do it 4 times in 7 games no matter how "hard" they play. need to match up night in and night out. its as simple as that.

Hahaha i had this discussion earlier in another thread in which I said we wouldn't get those guys for free as UFAs and got ripped apart - people seemed to think it would happen for free lol. i was just joking around with the above post. just bitter. heres the thread im a few posts in: Edited November 18, 2011 by dirtydangles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted November 18, 2011 This team hasn't been able to beat San Jose in the playoffs the last 2 years. So far this season, we aren't in there league when we play them. Yet our records are similar and both teams are very streaky. I'd say shake up the roster a bit (later in the season of course.. well that's when its gonna happen right or wrong ) and just play 60 minutes. I don't know how these guys are just ok with losing to the Sharks over and over. They show no emotion, ever. Babs started showing a bit tonight but it didn't matter. It sure is strange.

dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted November 18, 2011 Why would we have to? They're both UFAs after this season. and they are "best friends" and would just be total flakes to their respective teams to play together. doubt it highly. some team will sell the farm or something to get one of them.

T.Low 1,011 Report post Posted November 18, 2011 1) get our heads out of our asses and start playing as hard as they do. 2) sign parise and suter this off-season. Exactly. Thorton out hustled us on the first goal and then Vlasic out hustled Lazy Little Hudler for the wrap around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z and D for the C 712 Report post Posted November 18, 2011 (edited) some team will sell the farm or something to get one of them. Trading doesn't mean a contract. It's not a for sure thing obviously, but signing one or both is a definitely a possibility. Edited November 18, 2011 by Z and D for the C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

St. Michael (the Red Wing) 422 Report post Posted November 18, 2011 Nothing can be done they are bigger, faster and finish when it comes to scoring. Pound for pound they are the better team right now and have been for awhile. They will more than likely make it to the Conference Finals again. Sad to say it but it's true. And if we make the playoffs yeah playoffs lol we have no chance against them unless some sort of acquistion's are made before the trade deadline. The team we have now imo is worst than the one's the last 2 seasons and we all know how far we went. 1 T.Low reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crymson Report post Posted November 18, 2011 Don't make asinine mistakes. The first goal was a miscue by Kronwall. The second was blown rotation. The third was Ericsson being an unbelievable moron. Hey, we could get rid of Ericsson right now. That ought to help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
