You can't be ******* serious!

[Tim.D 176]

Octopus!

[canadian wings fan 305]

Big Bert should not be out there.

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

Just not in the cards tonight, f***

[Tim.D 176]

Holy octopus!!!

[hooon 1,089]

Just wow.

[MTU_Huskies963 398]

Oh Franzen! come on you have to crash the net on that one not skate gingerly.

[vladdy16 2,154]

They're trying to kill me. Some excellent chances, but no cigar. Franzen, really? You couldn't bury that puck? 18 seconds left and the Wings keep pluggin'.

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

f*** sakes, what a brutal road trip.

[syntax 359]

Thanks for showing up for 20 minutes, Red Wings.

[Yak19 303]

I am disappoint

[Tim.D 176]

Man, if Z and Mule could have buried those, it would have been 4-3.

[themcityblues 249]

Lol they play like that in the third period after the first two? How can that be explained?

[MulesWillFly93 199]

Aw, man. Well, at least they made the game worth sticking around for, but argh. So many woulda coulda shouldas.

[T.Low 1,011]

Just like the San Jose series: they wait too long to turn it on.

[Dave 324]

2 s***ty periods go in, 1 decent one comes out. You can't explain that.

His play really bugs me sometimes. He did not even put up a challenge for that puck.

Babs probably threatened their Xmas break if they didn't step it up.

Tht's why "Sports Psychology" is a booming industry.

Babcock bitched them out after two periods of crap hockey. The wings deserved to lose tonight.

[Crveni 14]

Red Wings' catch-up hockey and pressure they are able to exert may be spectacular to watch, but in the end, it is losing hockey.

More importantly, as they get back into it, I go from having fully accepted the loss to blood boiling, ready to bite heads off.

It usually ends up in me breaking something. And screaming.

f***.

At least the Flames won't make the playoffs.

Time to get back to the Joe, and destroy whoever is next.

Red Wing 'till I die.

[stevkrause 1,247]

As others touched on, we play like we did the final 15 minutes for the whole 60 and this game has a very different outcome... embarrassing start..

[GoWings1905 2,694]

Can't win games in this league only playing for 20 minutes. They got what they deserved.

It just pisses me off even more they can show that kind of effort in the third when they should be the most tired. I can take losing, but this garbage of not going hard for 60 minutes is frustrating. The Red Wings can dominate seemingly whenever they want to and yet there have been so many stretches this season where they don't even look like they want to be there.

Huge week of games coming up. Gotta re-focus after Christmas and do some damage against the Central.
