The Wings are making the refs lives easier.  Aside from the 2nd Kindl penalty, these calls really have been easy to make.  A chimpanzee could make them.

6-1 on penalties? 

[Mater_Horn]

Brunner again not looking good tonight, sorry to say. He tries to not lose the puck once, and boom: 2 min.

[jfranzen]

Way to not even attempt the shot blocks Cleary..

[Nightfall]

For real.

Why can we never come back from being down in a game?? You can just tell we'll lose this one 3- or 4-1.

 

The Wings have done it at least 2 times this season.  They have been down entering the 3rd period and come back to win.  Short memory?

I figure it out! Bettman has taken the advantage away from the Wings being more rested than the Preds, by having the refs make them short handed most the night so Nashville doesn't have to skate as hard... Of course! It all makes sense now!

I can only remember a whole heap of games where we've been down and unsuccessfully tried to come back. Maybe it's happened but it's been too rare.

We easily have 2 pp coming our way period 3.

E, cleary, and emmerton for first line. Because why the f*** not.

Ya...if only I was actaully being sarcastic!  /sarcasm/

Hopefully not. I would be content with just even strength play.

[Nightfall]

No obvious ones.  The tripping call, delay of game. and slashing calls were textbook calls.  This is just a case of the Wings committing more penalties than the Preds.

Hey, we're actually playing better when we're not the ones getting powerplays. 

 

Tatar doesn't get icetime and Nyquist will be in the minors until he's 27.  Hate how we run our young players.

Yeah...because the hockey gods are on our side tonight!

It is rare, but its rare across the league.  Just pointing out that 1/3 of the Wings wins have been through a comeback this season.  Maybe you should pay closer attention.

Yay! Holland Rocks! Babcock Rules!  Wonder if Scotty wants to make a comeback in a dual role?  I honestly think that Holland will never get fired because I think Illitch doesn't reall know what is happening anymore...at least that is the feeling I get because if I owned this team, I would at least be hopping mad!

What a shock, once again we can't beat Rinne more than once.

What a shock, once again we can't beat Rinne more than once.

And like always, we have had our chances and fail to take advantage.
