Hockeymom1960 5,107 Report post Posted May 12, 2013 Yes it is. Ok my on screen tv guide says Wingspan at 9, Red Wings Live at 9:30 and World Poker Tour at 10. So maybe that's a mistake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoWings1905 2,694 Report post Posted May 12, 2013 That's an interesting 4th line. I don't ever recall Sammy playing center for the Red Wings in either stint here. The Ducks 4th line has been very good, so the Wings need to at least negate them. How great would it be to have Helm centering the 3rd line and sliding Andersson down to the 4th? Completely changes the look of the team. 2 Z Winged Dangler and marcaractac reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gonna be a much better team next season. Edit: The thought of Nyquist/Helm/Brunner is just insane. That line would give teams headaches night in and night out.

IndianaRedWing 15 Report post Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) I've been hard on the team in my few posts here, so I'll take a break today. The only thing better than game 7 is . . . game 7 later in the playoffs. This isn't a Stanley Cup year, so I'm going to enjoy this one. It's great experience for the younger guys, and it'll be even greater if they can dispatch a tough opponent on the road. But I'm not going in with that expectation. The Ducks were the best team in the conference not named Hawks. They earned the 2 seed. The way I see it, they're the screw-ups who can't seem to put this series away. The Wings are playing with house money tonight. Hopefully we get an early goal and make it stick for a while. Supposedly the Ducks are loose, but I have to think they'll start getting tight if they go behind, and can't solve Howard. They've come back before in the series, but that wasn't under game 7 pressure. Either way, thankfully my first meeting on Monday isn't 'til 10.

This was supposed to be an easy series for them, but the wings have given them fits all series long. They're going to come out at least as tight and careful as they were in game six. If anything, the wings are the team that is loose. Let's steal one here boys! 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,789 Report post Posted May 12, 2013 Can Sammy take faceoffs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoWings1905 2,694 Report post Posted May 12, 2013 Can Sammy take faceoffs? I was thinking that too. Seems like a risky move to put someone at center with no experience at the position from what I recall. A defensive zone faceoff in a close game could be huge. 1 redwings15 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,789 Report post Posted May 12, 2013 Sammy gets to play center, yet I never got to see that Downey/Lilja/McCarty line I was begging for in 2008. Come on Babcock. Eaves would be better at centre than Sammy I think Babcock is just grasping at straws. Fact is, our 4th line has been awful in this series, while Anaheim's 4th line has been incredible. He's trying to give us a boost with this line. We'll see if it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carman 387 Report post Posted May 12, 2013 I was thinking that too. Seems like a risky move to put someone at center with no experience at the position from what I recall. A defensive zone faceoff in a close game could be huge. Can have datsyuk/andersson out there for the face off and make a change when you clear the zone. Hell they may even double shift datsyuk with the 4th line. It's game 7, I really doubt they'll be given a lot of ice time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
