gdt ECQF - Game 5 - Red Wings at Bruins - 3:00 PM EST

[Wings10 300]

Holland will never admit his mistakes..Franzen is not going anywhere.

What a crisp pass by Mr. Franzen. What a bunch of plugs.

The whole team looks awful expect for Gustavsson.

Good thing after this game the Bertuzzi curse is OVER. Unless Kenny re-signs him, which is a good possibility.

I'm starting to think it isn't boston that's so amazing, we just suck that much

It's both, but it's more the latter.

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

Thank you God.

You've done something right tonight.

[Paul MacLean's Mustache 44]

Silver lining!

[Marty Barry 230]

Yes!

[Wings10 300]

Haha ref..I don't care

[CaliforniaWingsFan 464]

Karma's a *****. Haha just kidding never want to see that.

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

Of course these Boston trashballs would be cheering for this ref.

[MTU_Huskies963 398]

The hockey gods were not pleased with the officiating, message sent.

[GoWings1905 2,694]

How nice to make four million dollars and work 20 nights per year. The life of Johan Franzen. They have to get rid of this bum.

After tonight, which came after the rest of the series, which came after 20+ games without a goal, and now all the pundits and talking heads and even Babs are calling him out...he's gone.

[lomekian 201]

Detroit has had 3 or 4 more PP's throughout the series than Boston...yup refs are totally throwing it to Boston. The difference is Boston can score on there PP's

See any spearing/cross-checking to the face/ massive embellishment from the wings in this series? Its not how many, its how and when. The desperation to make 'even up' calls favours the team that plays on the edge, particularly if they have the better PP.

This subtle 'game management' is creeping into all spectator sports. Its not giving all the penalties to one team, its the total inconsistency. Its hard to know where you are.

And on that note, an AWFUL AWFUL turnover from Franzen and lack of coverage = 3-1. How the f*** did we miss the local boy Krug? He's been Massive.

The Stripes have been pretty ropey as per usual, but our D has been FAR FAR worse than any official could be without be being sacked.

I repeat. I HAVE NEVER SAID the refs cost us the series....our awful defence and anemic goalscoring have done that. But the refs have been poor. Again, as I;ve said before why do people want to have things black or white. Its not one or the other.

[themcityblues 249]

Franzen was so brutal today. Responsible for 2 goals against. Nice season, Franzen!

[CaliforniaWingsFan 464]

I don't see how Franzen stays with this team. Unreal. The guy is absolute dogs***.

[wings87 1,290]

I was going to harp on Franzen's ridiculously boneheaded pass, but then I realized what's the point.

Wanna bet? I wish it was true..but..

How? It'd be hard trading him and buying him out will cost us money. It'd be shocking to see Holland actually do that.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

lol Franzen

[freshy 181]

Franzen is a disgrace and Lashoff is terrible at playing hockey.

I wish Holland would buy him out or trade him but neither will happen.

Seriously. NO chance at all that they trade or buy him out. Holland just doesn't function that way.

[WingsallTheway 383]

I don't think ive disliked a player as much as I do franzen after this season. The guy NEEDS to go.

Do yourself and the NHL a favor and retire after a buyout clearly he doesnt want to play
