WCQF Game 5 GDT : Red Wings 1 at Predators 2

[Marty Barry 230]

Yeah, I know, "this is the way we've always done it". f***!

[Salviaman 104]

We got to force Game 6

[brett 1,029]

first team out of the playoffs here we go

[Dave 324]

I guess not.

But this is easily the worst offensive game we've had in the playoffs for many years.

Like everyone is saying. This is the worst wings team in over 2 decades.

[GMRwings1983 8,804]

We have to score 2 more goals to win this game.

Seems like a monumental task.

[wingsfan_indian 39]

Lions doing well

Tigers doing well

And redwings on the decline..,

Why can't we have all three doing well

[metalkorn 45]

keep going back to the point for nothing plays

[dats13owns 157]

Nope.

but it won't happen.

He'll be rewarded with a 15 year extension.

[Dirty Dangle 83]

Give it up Mickey. The refs are not going to call penalties on the Preds.

[Electrophile 3,554]

Honest question. Do you think we will ice a better team next year.

If Holland is still the GM, no. We need fresh blood in this organization. A lot of it. The fish rots from the head down. You can't rid of Illitch, he owns the team. So, who's next?

[Salviaman 104]

Icing

[AlexCa 8]

Actually, Wings are playing a little better now, at least there is some passing now, there is still hope.

Link to steam anyone please?!

Might be the worst team strategy I have ever seen us have.

Mrs Illitch?

[GMRwings1983 8,804]

So it's settled.

Pizza boy fires Holland and we get a new GM next season.

Who are the available candidates? Obviously nobody with Holland's credentials, but at this point that doesn't matter since we need a change.

[Jeff6851 168]

I'm just waiting for the final nail in the coffin

[Z Winged Dangler 2,082]

Not to jump on the bandwagon, but Holland needs to go. I'm sorry, but we've been coasting too long on the successes of the late 90s/early 00's teams, and part of that is letting Holland get away with not doing anything to improve the team season after season after season. Babs can only work with what Holland gives him, so our s***tiness isn't his fault. He can't make lazy, entitled, below average players look good. Babs needs a better team to work with, and the first step in getting there is getting a new GM.

And no, that doesn't mean getting Steve out of Tampa. When his current contract is up, I'd love to see him GM this team, because I ******* love the guy and want to see him back in Detroit. However I don't want Steve in charge of another Dead Wings-era lineup. I'd like someone else to suffer that ignominy so that Steve can take the helm of a winning, competent, capable squad.

Babcock needs to go to. He's got a gem in Nyquist and barely plays him. he constantly makes chances and plays with plugs. Brendan Smith's offensive and grittiness could have made a big difference in a series where the Wings D has been pathetic.

[BuckeyeWingsfan80 209]

Indeed.

Oh look, Nash's quad just landed up on the scoreboard somewhere

[GMRwings1983 8,804]

You don't want to see this s***, believe me.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Less than six to go.

[Marty Barry 230]

Holland, Babcock...

This is what I've been thinking for most of the series.
