It was skinner doing the best sedin impressions iv ever seen

Wow. That's pretty bad, lol.

If the last two periods were any indication of how this third will go, I think Babs should have Datsyuk play keepaway in the neutral zone for the first minute. After that, it's all systems go.

Got to stay out of the box. If the Wings can stay out of the box this period, I think they win in regulation.

That would actually be somewhat amusing to watch, unlike the TB and PHI trap game earlier this season.

It's a piece of s***. All it does is provoke more nonsense than it abates. I don't "care", but I don't see why we need it. It gets abused by people who use it to piss on other members they don't like, or because said members posted something that may be true, but unpopular. I can't even remember the last time I availed myself of it.

To get back on topic, hell of a game so far. At least the Wings are showing some stones.

We all must have secret enemies on the forum.

The neg was removed for a while but it was put back in recently. I don't mind the system in theory, but, as you said, many posters use it for personal reasons and don't substantiate their neg with a reply.

Good two periods. Seems like some of the games from the past few years where the other team seems to capitalize on every opportunity while the Wings generally dominate the game.

well here's hoping anyway.

Haven't you noticed that everytime you post negative comments about the team is when you get negged? Correlation maybe???

The team sucks right now. We're playing hard tonight, but that's tonight. Saying the team isn't that good right now, or that we have problems, isn't being negative. It's assessing the situation as honestly as possible. You can phrase it better than "we suck" obviously, but I'm being a bit dramatic to make my point.

[atodaso]

f*** yeah!

On a positive note, we didn't get scored on in the 1st minute of the period.

[Gusto]

Exactly!

Like I said, it's fine if you want to neg, but explain why you disagree. Folks just neg because someone says "Boooo Wings" even though a lot of times it's the truth...

It's because you don't actually make any points that are refutable; just blanket black-and-white statements. If someone says something is good/improving then you read it as "The wings are the greatest!" and passive aggressively try and throw it back in their face.
I don't think anyone has really been saying 'things will be perfect with Lids and Dats back', they've been saying; 'things will get better with Lids and Dats back'. With those two out the wings just haven't had the tools to get the PP and PK on track, now they're here, we can start getting it back in shape. It doesn't mean it's going to be a top-10 PP tomorrow.

I was thinking more along the lines of Darren Helm 2009 playoffs vs Chicago

You guys are hilarious. I love seeing everyone jump back on the red wings' metaphorical **** once things improve. Many of you are the very definition of bandwagoners. I would love to see what some of you are like in real life. Some of your' comments display a complete lack of character. How do you all handle adversity in the real world? It's a hockey game, a form of entertainment, and guess what. Nothing you do has any affect on the outcome, it's asinine to freak out over such things.

[Cali-Wing-Nut]

We are trying but they are collapsing and taking away our lanes. Its like watching a 5-5 penalty kill. This may hurt them but so far it seems pretty effective.

[brennan17]

Damnit! Nyquist is so close every game!

Best defensive minute of the year!!!

[gowings00]

Ohhh how we needed a pure sniper. Thanks Holland!

That WAS nice.

Good pressure there, but Ward had some nice saves. Keep pressing guys! Let's Go Wings!

[zztop40]

Kyle Quincey, would you please put it in the NET! He's sure getting his chances...
I see where he has 7 shots, but it seems like lot more than that

Nyquist...something always happens when he's on the ice.

Yea, and it's totally because of him

[The Greek]

Lol, someone negged me. The truth hurts, eh? Bunch of spazzes.
