WorkingOvertime 536 Report post Posted March 14, 2012 Depends on how you look at it. Z has been in what? 1 fight against Malkin in '09? I am sure he would lose but maybe it would get the other guys heads out of their asses. That doesn't explain why you would love to see him get his ass kicked.

korrowan 111 Report post Posted March 14, 2012 Well, for the record the Wings are out a #1 forward, #1 defenseman, and a couple players that sometimes show up... Other teams still win when their stars are out. See Penguins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrimsonFlame 424 Report post Posted March 14, 2012 So will this be a Franzen goal that is a game changer? or completely meaningless? there is no middle ground when he scores. Well to be fair every goal only has those two outcomes. Either it contributes to the win or it's meaningless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anijuice 93 Report post Posted March 14, 2012 Are we considered a depth team? We're having a lot of trouble sustaining any offensive pressure and we're really only out one legit top six forward (if Bert played today, we can all agree there wouldn't be much difference).

lookalive07 251 Report post Posted March 14, 2012 So will this be a Franzen goal that is a game changer? or completely meaningless? there is no middle ground when he scores. Came here to say this. Franzen is a good player and all, but I'd like him to play a little more clutch like he totally knows how. It seems like almost every time he scores, it's either when we're so far ahead that there's no chance of a comeback by the other team, or the exact opposite. I can't remember the last time he had a goal that turned a game around or put a game away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't remember the last time he had a goal that turned a game around or put a game away. He led the league in game winning goals for a while. Not sure where he is on that list now. I agree though he needs to score when it matters when guys like Dats are out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WingTipMikey 1 Report post Posted March 14, 2012 The more I've watched, the less I like what the Wings have been playing like. For the first 2 or 3 games of the home winning streak through tonight, they've played progressively weaker and weaker. How long before Babcock finds, and pushes, the right button to kick this team in to overdrive and gets them kicking ass for the playoffs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted March 14, 2012 Okay I hope Z does not get in a fight and fire the team up. I hope its more of the same ol emotionless crap that we have seen for the last 3 years. Fixed. I'd rather not have Z fighting, but it'd be nice if the Wings showed any fire at all. Only the Blues game at home earlier this year have they rose to the occasion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're having a lot of trouble sustaining any offensive pressure and we're really only out one legit top six forward (if Bert played today, we can all agree there wouldn't be much difference). The Wings have good 3rd line depth players, but they do have a shortage of depth skill players. The absences on D also contribute to the current troubles. The Wings rely on the D more than most teams for offensive plays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Greek 323 Report post Posted March 14, 2012 (edited) Okay I hope Z does not get in a fight and fire the team up. I hope its more of the same ol emotionless crap that we have seen for weeks. You said you hoped Z would get his ass beat in order to fire up the team, not that he would merely fight. So we maybe get a spark by risking a potential injury to who is-as of late- our most consistent player. Like I said; your reasoning is s***.

So we maybe get a spark by risking a potential injury to who is-as of late- our most consistent player. Like I said; your reasoning is s***. As I said. I assume Z would lose the fight as he has been in ONE fight in his career. So therefore he would get his ass kicked. Not sure what is so difficult about this. It does not even matter if he wins or loses as long as he leads. Sure he puts out more effort than the other players but they are not responding to that. So maybe Z fighting will get them to do something besides suck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
