rick zombo 3,739 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 Let’s see. Make the call and give the Wings a chance to win the game on the PP? Or don’t make the call and the Ducks win? Not surprised which way that went. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VM1138 1,921 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 Sigh. Really thought we'd get 2-0 to start the season. Hell of a game and Detroit has really improved. Can't think of too many blatant mistakes, typical NHL ref blown game. There needs to be some review process for stuff like this. Ah well, at least Boston is getting trounced.

jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 and then ericsson is there to play defense on nobody in particularHehad to watch the pass.There was another duck standing right on his other side. They teach you to play the pass, let the goalie take the shooter, and had Howard been aggressive at all, or come out of his net getzlaf doesn't have the room to pull that puck in where he does. Id like for him to have tried to stop it, but he did what you're supposed to. and I think everybody was waiting for the effing whistle to blow, which it should have.

LeftWinger 4,958 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 Wow....just wow. Not much else to say. You can tell the ref was embarrassed. He was looking for a place to hide with the non call. That has to be a refs worse nightmare. Non call on a penalty that leads right to a goal. He was probably saying please don't go in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joesuffP 1,746 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 Yeah cause there wasn't a Kesler on the other side who would've been completely open if he had stepped over on Getzlaf. you don't let somebody walk right into your crease he didn't even have the angle on kesler he planted himself in front of the net and was puck watching Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VM1138 1,921 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 Why does this kind of s*** always happen against the Ducks? What a let down NHL, after a exciting game to end it like that? blahhhhhh.... Honestly it's just because games against the Ducks are always crazy. These two teams grind each other down and the games are usually very close, meaning that every mistake on the part of a player or a ref is going to be magnified. 1 Nightfall reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lomekian 201 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) Again and again...the officiating in the NHL is of a spectacularly amateurish level compared to other major sports, It is so inconsistent that its hard for casual fans to be sure what the rules are or know what's going on and it turns them off. Hell I've been watching ice hockey for 20 years and I still can't tell when the f***-bags in the middle are going to make calls or not....and absolute joke in terms of consistency and professionalism, and there are so many games I've watched over the past 5 years where the officials have decided the outcome more than the players. Apart for Bettman's golden boys, I don't even think its bias, just incompetence. That said, wings were good again tonight, and if they can maintain those energy and skill levels, they'll be a lock for the playoffs Edited October 12, 2014 by lomekian 4 GoWings1905, roboturner, puckbags and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DeGraa55 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 Dont even start. You're right I'll never state a fact again! Lol. It's one game of an 82 game season some people need to relax. Jesus Christ y'all act like it was the superbowl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puckbags 863 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 Sucks to not get full value out of that game. Boys are working hard and the difference defensively is a big surprise so far. Call should have been made garbage reffing but we need to pot some goals and win this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nightfall 871 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 While the Wings got jobbed on the no call, they had plenty of chances to win this game beforehand. Pretty exciting game though, and YAY, no injuries. That in itself is a win. This right here. While I am disappointed in the non-call, you can't blame the refs entirely. The Wings had a ton of chances to win this game and just couldn't bury their opportunities. Good teams don't rely on the refs or bounces to win games for them. I am not disappointed in their effort at all. 1 derblaueClaus reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wings_Toledo 233 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 Didn't really look like a hook to me. Kronwall just lost the puck in his skates and fell down. Unfortunate, but it happens. Great game otherwise. Moving on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brett 1,029 Report post Posted October 12, 2014 well it was a one handed hook and kronwall was already falling made it look a lot worse then it was. its almost always called though. inconsistency with these refs hell of a finish by getz. howard was garbage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
