Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted October 24, 2013 Lotta people thought Big B shoulda been gone this year. We need our old reliables, clearly. I like Tuzzi, though I'd rather have Nyquist. Cleary, Sammy and Miller need to go though. Then we'd be able to keep Tootoo on the 4th line instead of him being our trade bait to keep scrubs. Abdelkader went straight stone hands instead of making a scoring chance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hockeymom1960 5,107 Report post Posted October 24, 2013 That's what you need, someone screening the net. Not too hard to figure out that when the goalie can see it he's 9 out of 10 going to make the save. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted October 24, 2013 Glad Bert is back on the top line, he's a better fit for a cycle game and net front presence. Obviously 3-1 is s***, but if the Wings wake up this is still a winnable game. We'll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crymson Report post Posted October 24, 2013 (edited) I'm not blaming the Senators' lead on Cleary, but it would really benefit the team were he to be given a persistent seat in the press box. He contributes virtually nothing of on-ice substance to the team.

dat's sick 1,002 Report post Posted October 24, 2013 Bad period, but imo not as bad as the score indicates. The penalty on Kronner was awful, Turris held on to Kronner's stick more than it was hooking. 2nd penalty was legit but kind of a lucky deflected shot into the net. Howard wasn't too sharp but still 100% success for Ottawa in their scoring chances. This team should be able to come back from this, we're deep enough and considering we now need only 2 goals to tie it up it should be possible. Time for 2nd and 3rd line to produce, though I won't be surprised if it's yet again Dats or Z that put the team on their backs and scores. Just please, please fight back in this game. I couldn't stand it if Ottawa breezes to a win. 2 datterberg1340 and RaisedOnHockeytown reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted October 24, 2013 Imagine 100% Helm and Nyquist in this team. That would be a big skill and speed boost. I think the main thing we are lacking is SPEED. We are slow and both these guys have wheels (Helm in particular). The only reason Tootoo is useful out there is because he skates and is everywhere - we need more of this. 1 datterberg1340 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted October 24, 2013 We desperately need Franzine & Weiss to slumpbust tonight. I'd like to see Tatar - Weiss - Alfie. That line has effort - Franzen just kills lines when he doesn't skate hard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The guy can be mildly effective for stretches, but yeah, 90% of the time he's just nothing. He's the place offense and puck possession go to die. 1 dirtydangles reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
