GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 I just think against a physical minded team, Tootoo and Bertuzzi should be in the lineup. This is the type of series we signed Tootoo for, and he's being scratched. Go figure. Why sign him then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gowings00 545 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 (edited) Will a Wings player ever fight to back up Howard? Not as long as the great Patrick Eaves is playing for the horrible Tootoo. Sarcasm laid on pretty thick there. Edited May 5, 2013 by gowings00 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTU_Huskies963 398 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Hiller had a bad game in game 2. The same crap that scored goals in the 1st period of game 2 is not going to work tonight. Stop trying to finesse the puck into the net. Get bodies in front of the net,pound it in, and jump on the rebounds. 1 datterberg1340 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dabura 12,207 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 I guess on the bright side, we didn't give up a goal there. Other than Franzen's breakaway, the period was a wash. Missed opportunities for both teams. One could argue the Ducks have the momentum. But intermissions tend to help us - certainly in the previous game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Krystal 41 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Am I the only one having trouble seeing the game??? AT&T is trying to tell me that the game isn't nationally broadcast and since I'm not in either the Detroit or Anaheim markets, I can't watch it. I got both Games 1 & 2 broadcast just fine... Please tell me my provider is an idiot and I can justifiably flip my s*** on them when I get to the next tech support person???? I can't watch it on NBC's website because AT&T isn't on their list of providers for live coverage and the NHL Gamecenter app says its a nationally televised game >.> 1 datterberg1340 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Why is he needed? Because some Ducks are crashing the net just like the Wings do? I don't see Hiller on his ass as often as Howard is. Anaheim is more apt to go for scrums after whistles. And it's not just that. Tootoo is a good hitter and the type of 4th liner you need in the playoffs. He can bring energy on every shift. So he didn't play well in game 1. Who on our team did? Instead, Sammy is out there. Someone who isn't even a 4th liner. To play the point on the powerplay. Something he hasn't done for our team in like 4 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
