What? Miller, Helm, and Abdelkader all had a great game.

Yes, should've added the 3rd line. My mistake, too bad there great reaction goal couldn't stand as the GWG

[Nightfall]

Give me a break. It was a blown call that directly led to a Canucks goal.

It's a bag of s*** excuse. The lost faceoff and two failed clearing attempts that resulted in the goal. Its not like the lost icing put the puck in the back of the net. The Wings have to be better, not look for excuses.

I blame Crymson for the loss.

Eh, Vancouver probably deserves to win but when you have that lead in your house with 30 seconds left with that crowd behind you, you don't give up that goal under any circumstance.

I'm going to have Burrows breaking that stick burnt into my mind for some time now.

I think what I"m PO'ed about the most is that the streak was broken by the next closest team in the standings.
Really though, I wouldn't have been happy at all that the streak was broken, but that the Canucks did it, nipping on our heels just makes it that much worse.
The way they did it too - last second goal to tie it as a result of a questionable call and then in a shootout.
Eh oh well ...

Remember that time in 2002 when the Canucks were up 2-0 in the first round of the playoffs, and Lidstrom scores from near the blue line in the third game, and the Wings reeled off four straight wins .... yeah, that was awesome.

Go Wings!

In the grand scheme of things, this was just a one-point loss. Not a big deal.

[Detroit # 1 Fan]

Can I have an update on Quincey??? Physical enough?

Decently physical, good crease clearer. Very good on the offensive side as well.

Holland's got till Monday to wake-up and start making moves. More than one and pretty obvious after tonight's inexcuseable loss. Little depth on this team with too many marginal plyers.

+1

except giving up that regulation win could very likely cost them 1st in the conference.

get real.

None of that happens if the linesman makes the right call. I'm done discussing this with you. I have nothing left to say on the matter and I'm not going to agree with your cuss laden responses.

Wrong.

We should be 4 up on Vancouver with a regulation win. Instead, we're only 1 point up.

Go Wings!

Chelios vs Bertuzzi and Hasek just beeing the DOMINATOR!!!

Great cup run!

It was a hard fought game and the Wings still got a point to stay in 1st. Burrows had a nice move to score, but the stick break pantomime was bush league imho. I hope he gets Kronwalled hard in the playoffs. Kevin Weekes can take his "moxie" back to the Eddie Olczyk school of broadcasting. If he was on a Vancouver broadcast, I could tolerate his obvious glee over the Wings loss, but for a supposed national feed, not so much.

We can complain about the weak icing call until we are blue in the face, but Bertuzzi should know better than to give the opportunity for the linesman to make that call. The Wings were lucky to be up early as much as they were outshot, and if the PP had actually popped one it wouldn't have mattered. Luongo made some great saves, as did Jimmy. If these teams meet in the WCF it will be a barnburner.

Jimmy has played much better in his return after the broken finger than the two losses indicate. He deserves better effort from everyone in front of him, not just the Helm line.

Every loss is a big deal here

Ah, so being the first in the league and losing without Datsyuk to the second-best team in the conference by the slimmest of margins is "inexcusable" and means that several moves must be made. I think this should be put directly under "overreaction" in the dictionary.

THANKS!

With 20 games left in the season... no.

I miss Leonard... Funny you show up when he's not around. Hmmm.

So. Terrible. Being. A. Wings. Fan.

Cuss laden? haha..the guy said s*** once.

Good hockey game, full credit to the Nucks, they played well..we responded. Good run ends at 23.
