arag 308 Report post Posted February 6, 2012 It was painful to see Wings lost that one point against Oilers. Hope to see better effort tonight from the team, specifically from Franzen, who has been useless lately and waste of Pavels talent on that line. Looking for better effort al around, especially from our top players. Can't simply pass on easy points from bottom teams. Go Wings ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wings_fanatic 677 Report post Posted February 6, 2012 The way I see it, if we can come away with a solid W tonight then that makes the record for this road trip 3-1-1 (which is a very good record considering the time of the year and the injury to Howard). After this road trip is over tonight, we have a very favorable schedule, having 18 of the final 28 games at home, where the Red Wings have been so much more dominant for multiple reasons. I doubt we see improvement to the Powerplay tonight, but I think with the Wings being at home so much for the remainder of the season, it will really give babs a lot of extra time to work on things like the Powerplay and things kicking in motion.

miller76 463 Report post Posted February 6, 2012 Getting ready to head out to Westgate soon for the game. We need a good solid start, and a solid 60 minutes, no overtime BS. Wearing my black Cleary practice jersey tonight. We never lose when I wear it. 1 Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vladifan 680 Report post Posted February 6, 2012 I'm not concerned with which goalie starts. If the team can't convert on powerplays and/or stops playing before the end of the period and/or doesn't give the goalie any help, the results will not be what we want. Hopefully they learned that it is easier to take the lead than to catch up to the lead. Wings 4: Zata, Bert, Miller, Kronner Yotes 1: Doan Yep. The team wasn't all that much better than Conklin. Not a helluva lotta help out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Namingway 146 Report post Posted February 7, 2012 All right! Time for Red Wings hockey! Good to hear MacDonald is getting another chance, he was great in the last game and here's to him stepping up and playing just as well as he did last time. The Yotes beat a tough Sharks team not too long ago so they might put up a good challenge. Here's to having our players step it up a bit more in the absence of Jimmy.
