Yak19 303 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) Let's be serious Howard won that game and stole points in the last 2 games. This game should have been way easier than what it was. Offense needs to wake up for the last 6 games. Edited April 15, 2013 by Yak19 2 Dominator2005 and haroldsnepsts reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
themcityblues 249 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) It was basically a 1-0 game which means: a) we suck at scoring, and b) team needs a shutout to win Edited April 15, 2013 by themcityblues Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheXym 2,606 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 Great effort by Jimmy Howard for the shutout. Nice job for an "average" goalie. How did Carey Price do last time he was out? Cue up side B of Van Halen's 1984 cassette and blast "Top Jimmy". Mule looked better this game as well. DeKeyser played very well also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SDavis35 140 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 Happy Birthday^ Wings 3-0. Hank with the hattie for his good deed this morning. Kristi and Linda are at the game. They went to the morning skate. As they were going, Kristi dropped her phone and didn't realize it. Hank picked it up for her and gave it back to her. They had a nice chat in the elevator on the way down. He said they need these two points. Great call! Too bad Hank couldn't get those other two Way to go Howie, huge saves all game long! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MidMichSteve 1,115 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 Thank you, Wings. It was basically a 1-0 game which means: a) we suck at scoring, and b) team needs a shutout to win I counted 3 goals. Two were legitimate. 1 Wingsfan72 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e_prime 1,936 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 So Nashville isn't the biggest offensive threat, but Jimmy had a great first period with thirteen saves in that first period. We bear down and make a good game of it. Z shows what he's made of... so does Howard. Damn fine result in a game we needed to win. 1 datterberg1340 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crymson Report post Posted April 15, 2013 Let's be serious Howard won that game and stole points in the last 2 games. This game should have been way easier than what it was. Offense needs to wake up for the last 6 games. Giguere and Kiprusoff stole series from us in 2002 and 2003, respectively, and it couldn't have mattered less that they did the lion's share of the work. While I agree that it is nice to see the team put up dominant performances, it's great that we have a goalie capable of stealing games. 3 Vladifan, Wings3:16 and Nev reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SDavis35 140 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) It was basically a 1-0 game which means: a) we suck at scoring, and b) team needs a shutout to win I disagree that this was a 1-0 game. Rinne made a few huge saves that we had a legitimate chance to score on. We still suck at scoring, but I'm hoping we can get that going for the next 22-34 games. And Franzen scored with a goalie in net. 2-0 game + the EN. Edited April 15, 2013 by SDavis35 1 MidMichSteve reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evilmrt 636 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 Ka-bam. Much needed win. Now we just have to wait for Minny and Dallas to lose. Kind of weird, this being the last of the regular Nashville matchups. They were a good opponent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While I agree that it is nice to see the team put up dominant performances, it's great that we have a goalie capable of stealing games. Bobrovsky, Smith, Lehtonen and Elliot have been stealing games for their respective teams as well but the offense has also been better for those teams as oppose to the Wings Couldn't be happier with Howard's play but they will need the offense to show up to make it into the playoffs.
