GoalieManPat 1,007 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 NOOOOOOOOO! So basically down 3 world-class centermen who were on pace for career years. Didn't we sign some high-profile FA to play center? Maybe I'm wrong... I think you mean 2 world class center-man. I know we all love Helm but lets be serious he is a good NHL player but nowhere near world class.

Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 Based on the skillset the hockey gods are targeting, Alfie or Kronwall is definitely next Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wingfan1991 221 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) Bets on who gets injured next game? Take your pick Alfie ,nyqist, franzen, Tatar or kronwall. Seems like dominos best to worst injuries meaning cleary kindl and Sammy Weiss will be the last 4 hurt. Edited December 6, 2013 by wingfan1991 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 Perhaps the "big bad east" is taking its tole on the boys.

Richdg 267 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 before the season started I mentioned something about "we are going to struggle offensively, we would do well the first 30-40 games, then the size and toughness factor in the east would catch up to us". Z's back is something he will deal with for the rest of his career off and on. Glad he signed for 7 more years! Helm just doesn't have the size to hold up for the type of game he plays. Sorry to be rude guys, but this stuff was predicted and we were warned. Flame away...... 1 canadian wings fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I gotta say the wings have been getting hammered lately since the sens beat us that way and other teams seem to be following this tactic. I doubt it has anything to do with the East, teams like Anaheim, San Jose, Nashville, and Vancouver always played us a lot tougher than most of the teams in the East have this year. Other than the Datsyuk injury, we shouldn't be surprised that Z or Helm got hurt, it sucks but it's not a shocker. 1 Dave reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I gotta say the wings have been getting hammered lately since the sens beat us that way and other teams seem to be following this tactic. The Wings had the most man games lost to injury in the West last season, so I don't know how much substance is behind that theory. Injuries have been a major issue for this team basically every year since 2008. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will be re-evaluated Monday. I can live with a strain or sprain. At least it's nothing permanent. Has anyone wondered if the next two players to be injured once Z returns will hurt their knees and toes? The injury report would read: Pavel (head) Helm and DeKeyser (shoulders) Player X (knees and toes) Player Y (knees and toes)... 5 Ally, amato, Nev and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
