BigWinston 15 Report post Posted May 28, 2013 Just give dekeyser a few shots and send him out there next game for smith. Or send the headless horseman out there. I'll certainly take a one armed Dekeyser over a guy who is wearing clown shoes on every other shift. Hey, just put white in for smith... It can't be any worse... Its an impossibility.

RedStormRising 7 Report post Posted May 28, 2013 Sadly, no. Offside (ice hockey) For other uses, see Offside (disambiguation). In ice hockey, a play is offside if a player on the attacking team enters the attacking zone before the puck does, unless the puck is sent or carried there by a defending player. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD Was it not batted out of the zone by a Wings player and brought back into the zone by a Hawks player while Hawks were still in the zone, thus being offsides? Anyone have a video or gif available? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brett 1,029 Report post Posted May 28, 2013 Was that a high stick? I didn't see a replay of that yet. He jerked his head back, but that could be embellishment for all I know. the refs called every one of the hawks embellishments. i guess in this day and age you need to take some acting classes in the off season to get the upper hand in the playoffs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He jerked his head back, but that could be embellishment for all I know. even if it was missed, kane got hich sticked earlier and it wasn't called. But the penalty shot call didn't have an equal, it stuck out as a terrible call as did the franzen call. Edited May 28, 2013 by jollymania Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoalieManPat 1,007 Report post Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) Played bad in all 3rd periods these playoffs and had two bad games in these elimination games. The whole team choked but Howard did as well Explain how he played bad in the 3rd tonight. A guy is left all alone out front with enough time to make a sandwhich, stickhandle, and shoot and puts it just inside the post. Then he makes the initial two saves on the 2nd while Smith is standing right there doing nothing to put off Bickell while he stuffs it in on the third attempt. Then he got beat on a good move on a penalty shot. If this is playing bad you have unrealistic expectations. Would you rather he be letting in shots like Anderssons goal tonight? Good lord. Watch the plays instead of looking at the box score and seeing 3 against in one period and automatically blaming the goalie.

The whole team choked but Howard did as well ever since his SO in game 4 he hasn't looked as sharp to me, but he also hasn't gotten much help from his defense, either we need at least one of those things firing on all cylinders if we're gonna have a chance Wed. night with the way things have gone for most of these playoffs, it's gonna have to be Howard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Axe Report post Posted May 28, 2013 Look what happened when we put an ice cold colo in... Smith is the worst defenseman on the ice night in night out. With smith out and White in for this game I bet we win Ok. We get it. You dont like Smith. He's in tho. So get used to it. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vladifan 680 Report post Posted May 28, 2013 Howard you look like a sack of s*** keep pouting during the shot you clown You know what? That was the worst call tonight and that's going some.

Guest Playmaker Report post Posted May 28, 2013 win or lose this team I think has gone farther than any of us expected. we will be even better next year. Personally, I don't give a **** about next year right now. If you have a 3-1 lead, and a lead going into the 3rd period at home in game 6, you should win the series. The Wings came out with a piss poor effort, while the Hawks came out in game 5 on fire. They are not that much more talented than the Wings, they are out working the Wings. That's where I have the issue. 5 HelmFan, Hockeymom1960, Yak19 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Crymson Report post Posted May 28, 2013 It doesn't, but if we use that series as example, the Sharks were going home for game 7. So are the Hawks. I still wish this game was tomorrow. Not healthy for us or the Wings to sit around for two days thinking about this game. It gives one of the best coaches in the game some time to work his magic.

Doesn't matter how much magic Babcock has if his players aren't willing to put forth the effort needed. Hold the 1 goal lead. You have a top 5 goalie behind you for f***'s sake.

Babcock is a great coach, but he's not the reason we beat Anaheim in game 7. Line combos are only as good as the players who either do or don't show up. If Datsyuk, Zetterberg and Franzen don't show up for game 7, we won't win. Babcock can't turn s*** into candy. 1 F.Michael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTU_Huskies963 398 Report post Posted May 28, 2013 I can't defend smith anymore, these are not rookie mistakes. I can maybe defend a forward for losing his man, but not a Dman. The scheme was man to man how do you let your guy sit in front of the net? Datsyuk and Z need to step up big time in game 7. The 3rd and 4th lines can not continue to carry this team and expect to win. 2 Hockeymom1960 and RedStormRising reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
