haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted October 20, 2013 Honestly what Mike Smith did was ridiculous, but I'm angrier about the b.s. diving call on Lashoff that negated what should've been a Wings PP. 2 derblaueClaus and TheXym reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dat's sick 1,002 Report post Posted October 20, 2013 Frustrating game. It's just a loss though. Glad we don't have to face Phoenix anymore, such a boring team to watch. Difficult to beat them though. On to the next one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puckbags 863 Report post Posted October 20, 2013 Phoenix hit two posts before they scored their first goal. How is hitting a post a bad break? To me it means you can't put the puck in the net..either that or the goalie had the angle cut down and you have no where to shoot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dabura 12,207 Report post Posted October 20, 2013 We did. And for some reason after a 2 goal lead tonight that was it from us. I'm not blaming the schedule on this one or anyone else. We just didn't get it done tonight. Shameful. Questionable calls through out the game but still.... Quincey's penalty destroyed all of our momentum. It had been one of the best starts I've ever seen from the Wings. But you're right - another shameful performance against a team that really, really has us figured out. ******* get Nyquist and Tatar in. We need their hunger and wheels. 1 datterberg1340 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedWingsRox 614 Report post Posted October 20, 2013 WTF ?? No live feed but left the board at 2-2 and then just came back and we lost 5-2? That means 4 unanswered goal (minus empty net) ... what the hell happened? What's wrong with Howie? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
derblaueClaus 1,668 Report post Posted October 20, 2013 Let's just be happy that this wasn't a playoffgame. Positive things to draw from this game : I liked Smith today, and DeKeyser was also decent as No.1 D-Man. And the first line is on fire right now. With the exception of the last ten minutes of this game. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wings_fanatic 677 Report post Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) Questionable calls? This was awful officiating once again. I don't care of Smith was down, the NHL needs to fix that rule... if the goalie goes down in that situation he either leaves the game, or else the goal should count because if he is okay to stay in the game, then no reason to say the goal should not count. That really effed us over. The linesman need to move the eff out of the way, single handedly costed us there on the 3rd goal. And then the ref calls embellishment on the most obvious hook ever. It was not until we were down by 2 that the refs decided to give us a powerplay. The NHL officiating is just lame and the worst part is im not even surprised anymore. Now, onto the Wings. Babcock has got to come up with better lines. I am all for Weiss needing time to adjust to our system and I do see him competing hard, but Babcock needs to change the 2nd and 3rd lines up. That 3rd line is just too damn slow. It is time to freakin play Tatar and NOT SAMMY!!!! I like Bert on the top line with Pavs and hank, knowing that if momentum turns from us we can switch and put Alfie on the top line. Also, I would like to see Abby move to the 3rd line to give it some spark like he did Franzen. Hank- Dats- Bert Franzen- Weiss- Alfie Abdelkator-Anderson-Tatar 4th line without Sammy Edited October 20, 2013 by wings_fanatic 1 datterberg1340 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That means 4 unanswered goal (minus empty net) ... what the hell happened? What's wrong with Howie? wasn't Howie as much as it was no one kept skating after we went up 2-0 also some ?able reffing and a strange no goal call when Smith mysteriously went down in apparent pain but then was just fine the rest of the game would liked for Howie to have stopped Hanzal on his breakaway, but we weren't exactly putting much pressure on Smith before that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLEASE someone back him up call me out tell me im wrong Smith was ok tonight. Not great, but neither was the rest of the team. The problems were much bigger than him, people just tend to look for a single reason. He let Doan get behind him, which was a mistake (that didn't lead to a goal). . But Hanzal's first goal was a fluke bounce off a linesman and it looked like Quincey was skating off for a change. Smith was the loan man back with Hanzal way over to what would've been Quincey's spot I think. Not Q's fault either really. a premature change attempt and a linesman in the way. All in all I don't think you can really judge Smith good or bad by tonight. Bigger problem is the whole team coming unglued in the third. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
