I loved Kronwall grabbing Tatar before he celebrated too much on the 2nd goal. Good stuff.

This game should've been blown open from all this goonery. Their talent is sorely lacking resulting in these bush league tactics. We gotta keep coming at them in the third and keep skating hard. Put them away this period. Hartnell is a gobbler.

Babs isf****** nuts. Get Cleary off the ice on the PP, why are Franzen, Weiss, Nyquist, Alfie and Kronwall on to start EVERY PP. Man, I just don't get this guy behind the bench sometimes.f****** ridiculous.

Right after a great looking PP. Meanwhile Cleary and his line is almost giving up a goal everyone on the ice while maintaining absolutely zero offensive pressure

[beachwing 426]

So im reading that penalty correctly... 'Head Butting' ?

[LeftWinger 4,953]

I'd rather have Tootoo out then than Cleary...

[vladdy16 2,154]

Philly's strategy is to beat us up enough where we won't be able to do anything on all the power plays - we'll be too banged up.

[WingsAlways 486]

Philly is a joke.

I call their style "temper tantrum hockey".

Whenever things aren't going exactly as planned, instead of acting like grown men, they start acting like 4 year olds throwing a temper tantrum.

Laughable...

It's a Pennsylvania thing apparently...

[joesuffP 1,746]

I can't believe Babs puts Cleary out on our PP this guy is a complete clown. Right after we score a PP goal and look good.

[LeftWinger 4,953]

damn! Did you see that upper cut? Our powerplay can't do that!

[wings87 1,290]

Nyquist gets punched, Abby gets pushed into the boards and the rest of the Wings are just standing around watching. Good stuff.

[RedWang 422]

A statement needs to be made in the third. If youre going to flatout refuse to fight back, ATLEAST SCORE ON THE DAMN PP.

[CaliforniaWingsFan 464]

Couple things:

1. Absolutely unbelievable that wasn't 5 and a game for Schenn. Doubt there will be a suspension either ******* disgusting officiating.

2. Tatar is absolutely on fire. Why are we not starting the rookies on the first pp unit?

I would rather have a monkey on skates out there instead of Cleary.. at least the monkey would be amusing while being devoid of talent.

Philly has always played rough hockey - it's their MO.

[puckbags 863]

If we dont score on more than 1/5 PP's were gonna lose.

Actually if you score on 1/5 pp's you would be in the top 10 in the league which is exactly where we are.

It's truly insane. There isn't one Wings fan who could see the rationale behind the decision. Not one, we all realize that Cleary is broken beyond repair and hurt's his lines offensive chances. Yet Mr Babcock, who gets paid a hell of a lot of money, can't see it? Veteran leadership doesn't mean f*** all when a guy can't skate. I just can't believe it, I realize that it'd be Abby if he wasn't hurt, but still. Abby out should be more ice for Tatar and Nyquist, not Cleary.

Well the biggest problem is our first PP unit is all injured. So at 20% with a 2nd and 3rd unit is pretty good.

My clean pc commercial, this is what happens when your computer gets infected, it slows down, crashes... I think I found out what happened to Cleary, he's infected!!

[MabusIncarnate 5,344]

Game On... hold the lead boys.

Not all of us in PA are cheap shotting Neanderthals.

[DatsyukianDekes 2,428]

The 29-year-old Scott Hartnell has had all types of nicknames and phrases – some good, some bad – surrounding him during his tenure in Philadelphia but nothing quite like “Hartnell Down.” It all began with the social media site Twitter as it was there Seth Hastings had the idea to start Hartnell Down by using it as a hashtag and asking his friends to guess how many times the Flyers forward would fall during any given game and would donate $1000 dollars every time he touched the ice.

Imagine Cleary Down? He would be broke.

I think Dan Cleary should be the next Robocop.

Eddie really doesn't want the wings to win

Just tossing it out there as most of the discussion continues to be Cleary hate and not about the game underway.

That's cause Cleary is ruining the game
