We outshot them and had a 3-1 lead. That's how I look at it with my pessimism. We should have had a regulation win.

Do you realize who is on our team right now? Or more importantly, who is not playing right now? lol. There is zero reason to pessimistic after this win. Great game!

Because of the win the good definitely outweighed the bad. But to completely discount the bad is also a mistake.

We won a shootout! I'm gonna go outside and see if there are any pigs flying.

But seriously I'm so used to Pav not scoring in the shootout this year that I had a delayed reaction thinking he missed.

I thought he did too due to the way the announcer kinda gave a half assed goal call

That was an amazing game. Most entertaining one of our season so far imo. We dominated the first half, then somehow let them back in it (Gus was a bit shaky), but just got back to it and started playing and managed to get the extra point.

Speechless at how great Jurco is. Ken Holland has a chance to redeem himself by finding a way to keep him up even when we're all healthy. Kid's got moves, but I'm mostly impressed by how solid he is in his fundamentals. Taking his responsibilites defensively (the assist was a perfect example), doesn't look outmatched physically, seems to know when he can pull out some moves and when he needs to keep it simple.

For someone who has never been impressed by Sheahan, the guy raised my eyebrows tonight. He looked strong on the puck and made good plays all game long. Maybe he has a future for the Wings after all.

Had a good feeling going into the shootout. Sooner or later we had to get it done and you could see from the reaction of the team that it wasn't just an ordinary win. This was big for them.

par for the course with CBC and any Canadian team.

I'm really confused as to why LGWers hate the CBC abnouncers so much... They call a great game, every bit as good as Ken and Mick. However, they focus more on the Canadian team than the wings. Which is to be expected since that's the market they are catering to. And by the way it's exactly what Ken and Mick do, the only difference... You don't notice them preaching cause you're in the choir.

Ken and Mickey represent the Wings only, not an entire country's broadcasting. I'd expect a little less bias from CBC.

The CBC has broadcast teams that tend to cover one or two teams rather than them all. Interesting reply though, my point is simple the CBC is no more biased than any broadcast crew. But a lot of folks around here seem to think other broadcast crews should gush all over their Red Wings, which is simply foolish.
