diiiiiiive

[SaCkaveli20 275]

And penalties start to add up,

[hankzet40 233]

First game and all aside, brutally pathetic. Book the 3-0 here.

[edicius 3,269]

And another PK. 3-0?

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

How's that D working out so far Kenny?

esteef

I'm sure glad we didn't overpay for that Suter.

[brett 1,029]

nice dive

[TheXym 2,606]

Nice dive there.

[Carman 387]

Yeah, umm don't think this could have been any worse. Team just isn't skating. Let's see if Babcock can find a switch somewhere in this intermission.

[puckloo39 5,686]

Dive. Hitch promised doughnuts.

[BottleOfSmoke 5,965]

Oh give me a break...

[joesuffP 1,746]

Cleary needs to be scratched he can't play hockey at all

[Shaman 713]

So, if this is any indication of how bad the Wing's D is, how long will this season be?

[edicius 3,269]

Outshot 17-2. In Jimmy, we trust.

[Hockeymom1960 5,107]

Let's hope Babs goes all apes*** on them.

Come on ... that wasnt a dive.. that was interference all the god damn way. accept it, this team is getting out played, they know it, that was a play made out of total desperation by our hapless D.

[pvilleguru 65]

So when's the trade deadline?

[haroldsnepsts 4,826]

Howard, Flip, Ericsson looked good.

Everyone else I either didn't notice or only noticed because they were awful.

Blues came to play. Wings look like a team that's coming off a lockout.

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

Yeah, umm don't think this could have been any worse. Team just isn't skating. Let's see if Babcock can find a switch somewhere in this intermission.

Not his fault his GM riddled him with this defense and a group of lazy, old forwards.

[TheXym 2,606]

Absolutely terrible first period. When was the last time the Wings were outshot that badly in a period?

[gcom007 1,465]

Anyone who thought our D wasn't going to be a mess was kidding themselves. I admit, I was trying to be optimistic as time went on too, but let's get real, losing Rafalski, Stuart and Lidstrom is just a huge blow, especially when you add nothing even remotely comparable to even Stuart. But we talk about that and we don't often talk about the fact that great players like Lidstrom make the guys around them better. So what are these guys going to look like without the Lidstrom-bonus magic skill points? Well, I guess we are starting to really figure that out.

I can't imagine that Holland isn't shifting in his seat tonight, and can't imagine Babcock doesn't want to strangle him right now either.

[St. Michael (the Red Wing) 422]

We are getting owned. Combo of both the Wings flat and the Blues are bringing it.

PS. The way this game is going they don't need Redden

Seriously

Relax it is only the first period of the first game, what's with all the doom and gloom.

[jeff48109 474]

time to get some hungry kids from GR to play.

[haroldsnepsts 4,826]

Kronwall hooked him around the hands and his skates came out from under him.

That was a dive.

And yes this team is getting horribly outplayed.
