amato 3,210 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 He was trying to get it to Bert. In this case, I don't mind, but normally, I'm on the SHOOT IT bandwagon. ahh touche. i didn't know that was bert.. i take that back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Huskins with 7 blocked shots tonight. Nice. Stuart 2.0 (before he packed his bags last year) solid win for the Wings. Time to turn on NHL 13 and simultaneously watch the Jets take down the Pens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jedi 1,865 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 That's 2 points for us, and none for a competitor for one of the playoff spots. Anytime that happens, it's a good night. 2 thegerkin and haroldsnepsts reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amato 3,210 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Nice to see them saluting the fans. I hope that is a new tradition by the team. I know it's about time they did. the stream i watched was a minny one.. so i didn't get to see haha the announcers were ridiculous though.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BottleOfSmoke 5,965 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Very satisfied with this win. First period wasn't great, but the last two thirds were definitely solid. They put in work and got the win. Keep it up boys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seraph 240 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Datsyuk had some sick assists tonight. Wow. I think we'll be okay, guys. We're still looking for our post-Lidstrom identity, but I think we'll find it. We got a fourth line we're learning how to use. We'll file through our d-men and find our regulars and pairings. Maybe add another player to the mix later to complete the puzzle. Definitely feeling a little more comfortable now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Huskins with 7 blocked shots tonight. Finally, a guy on this team who's actually been taught by other coaches on how to block shots. Babcock needs to instill this more in this team. We're always around dead last in the NHL in blocked shots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freshy 181 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Without his contributions we wouldn't have won the game against columbus. HIs passes were just as important as hitting the net. 4 games, 1 assist while playing over 18 minutes. That's weak. Although I am glad he helped us beat the friggin Blue jackets in overtime. Guy needs to start working and finding the back of the net. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Lets not get too far ahead Blackhawks right now are different tier than the Wild (even with their two additions), so the defense will have to be better and our PP needs to be clicking in order to have a chance.

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Good game tonight. I hope Babcock keeps the top 2 lines together, they really seemed to gel even with Franzen playing like a ghost. PP was good, Bert and Helm brought alot of energy like I was hoping they would. Lets get a streak going now, beat Chicago on Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marty Barry 230 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Get me a few games above .500 and I will start to relax. There is zero pattern yet. But, after tonight, there are absolutly zero excuses accepted. I spelled absolutely wrong. But it looks so stupid, I think I'll leave it that way.

You can't blame them for their ignorance. I remember the Russian 5 driving the Detroit announcers crazy with saucer passes and passes in front of Vernon until they got used to it. Minny just hasn't had that yet so they don't see the brilliance that we do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NyquistianDeke 43 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Good game tonight. Offense came to play finally Having Helm back makes a big difference But I am tired of the special teams fest. Over half the game spent with players in the box. Its beyond stupid at this point and not fun to watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
