GDT 4/9 GDT - Red Wings 3 @ Pens 4 (SO). Wings clinch playoff spot!

[Bryguy 103]

We need some nyquist magic to win this one.

[TheXym 2,606]

Anybody see the supposed high stick? Was it legitimate? Nbc doesn't show the replay if it isn't actually a penalty

Exactly the point I was trying to make when I mentioned it.

He has 140 minutes to pot 2 goals to hit 30 on the year.

Legwand and Lashoff shouldn't play in the third

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

They can't play with us 5on5 tonight. The difference is PP, ours sucks, and there's doesn't. End of story, 1 period to get 2 points. A loss in regulation would be a huge blow.

Legwand is ass

Should he spear Neal in the leg wand like he did Malkin? Edited April 10, 2014 by TheXym

Sheahan wasn't interfering, he was just trying to pollinate the flower.

[MotorCityMadness 388]

Horrible. Complete garbage PK

The shot initially was going right into the chest protector of Gus...It hit DeKeyser and went practically 90 degrees the other way and dropped just inside the post...Not much can be done there

[LeftWinger 4,934]

Legwand blew all our good work

Wow! What a great play there by Legwand! Took away a great scoring chance by Pit!

[jimmyemeryhunter 2,747]

Well.

At least were tied going into the 3rd.

[gowings00 545]

Hopefully the refs are satisfied now and will actually call the game fair.

[AtomicPunk 296]

No matter what an ass he might be, but it's good to see Kris Letang playing again after a stroke. That's serious and probably scary stuff for him to be going through out there tonight, and it's good to see a player recover from something so serious and resume playing.

[joesuffP 1,746]

The stupidest penalties always cost us. I think Legwand is a Pittsburgh fan cause he's tried his best to blow both games. We take the lead into the third if he just plays one more smart shift

This. I didn't catch the deflection but i rewound the play. Tough break.

[MabusIncarnate 5,344]

This is a game we are very much in and can win, just need to play a solid 3rd like we have been here recently and get that point we need so badly.

[gcom007 1,465]

I had a headache earlier and laid down to relax. Two hours later, I woke up and turned on the TV just before it became a 2-2 game. Poop.

I'd be thrilled to lose to Pittsburgh in overtime though today. Thrilled.

I like what I see from the wings so far tonight. They are winning a lot of battles and are playing well as a unit supporting one another. My big problem is franzen who is once again just floating around out there. Pav needs someone who can actually move their feet out there...

[joesuffP 1,746]

He's settled into his role as a 4th line player nicely I guess

Consistent problem we are having lately is allowing opponents (including Pitt tonight) to enter the zone with ease and to take shots at point blank range.

[TheXym 2,606]

Agreed. It sucks they didn't pot a couple more in the first when try controlled the play more. Still, all things considered, tied going into the third, I'll take it. No more stupid penalties, their PP is clicking, while ours is not.

Anson Carter just said Fleury not interfered with by Sheahan, it was Orpik's stick. They won't keep him around long if Edzo has his way.

I think Franzen is trying but his hockey iq is 0. He needs the puck to magically land on his stick in a scoring chance to score he can't make anything happen on his own

Eddie Olczyk is the worst thing that ever happened to professional sports broadcasting.

[MabusIncarnate 5,344]

Legwand had the GWG in an enormous game last night, Legwand broke up what likely could have been a goal late in the 2nd period just now. Legwand got called for a "high stick" that they didn't show the replay on because it was likely extremely weak. Legwand leads this team in points right now.

Let's settle down on the senseless Legwand bashing post after post, opinions have been made well known, repeating it in a different context over and over gets old.

I won't be. We've been dominating them all game.

[TheXym 2,606]

I think he adds a bit of snarl at times that the team has been missing. My comment about the spear was because I think while it was a selfish penalty to take, I also think it sparked the team to the win in that .4 sec left in OT win.
