f*** do we ever need Lids and Ericsson back on defense. And Holmer needs to be "Old Yellered" ... hes been past it forever but he doesnt even contribute offensivley anymore. He gets more goaltender interference calls and disallowed goals than he creates. Id rather have a 4th line of Mursak, Connors, Anderson (while Franzen is out)

LOL "Old Yellered" that's awesome and very much the appropriate course of action for poor Homer, his best days are far behind him

Great term for a Quincey goal. Well done. Now they need to kick the Caps in the yambag and get a few more.

You guys are over-reacting! Hope cow... I understand the anger with the fact that we are winless in 4, but every team goes through slumps and while in our slump it has largely been because of injuries. In funks, mental errors are made, pucks dont bounce your way, and every that can go wrong does. Puck bounces on Smith leading to goal, Hank hitting the crossbar on the powerplay... I typically find that in funks there is usually 1 game where the team in the slump gets destroyed in every aspect and NOTHING goes their way all game. It is typically after a game like this that the teams turn things around. By the end of the season, the Wings will be rolling and no one will be whining about this, calling Kenny the worst GM in the league, and so on. INstead of debunking everyone (other than Cleary cuz i hate him) how about we SUPPORT their turnaround to success... lets have faith!

I hear ya and agree for the most part but injuries aside there are some alarming issues that should have and could have been addressed.
1. PP is just awful. They look totally lost and you can't really blame this one on injuries. We've been bad at this for a while.

2. PK has been even MORE awful. This has nothing to do with injuries. Period!

3. The team has been SO inconsistent. this is the worst "slump" by far but this entire year has been the most roller coaster year I've seen. In the past, if the wings REALLY needed a win they could buckle down and climb their way out but this team has been different.

4. No moves at the deadline despite really needing a Big Forward.

...not giving up but there are some monumental obstacles to overcome in the next 10 games. Can it happen..sure! I hope so.

Datsyuk with the change up shot, didn't work. He's some creative though

It's not over reacting, they have been like 3 and 15, that'sf****** pathetic. Especially for not doing s*** at the trade deadline. So basically only have rainbows and sun shine and never be upset. It's ok guys you don't have to give a f*** about winning or trying, nobody in the arena has paid any money to see you, nobody invests their time to watch you play a sport. Thanks for pointing out that they will turn it around, I thought they were going to lose every single game forever.... People are pissed because they have played like s***, people who are being paid good money to play a sport are cashing checks without trying to earn s***, and they don't deserve critism?

Edit: agreed Cleary is terrible
