GDT 12/23 GDT : Sabres 3 at Red Wings 6

[Anijuice 93]

Lol Kindl and Smith just tried to morph together there

[GoWings1905 2,694]

Yeah Babs, keep Smith and Kindl together. They almost just gave up their third from being clueless.

[Euro_Twins 4,477]

Not at all. Just think it's funny because he catches a lot of heat from Wings fans and he scores in his first game back.

Yup. And he was on fire before that. I think most fans realize how valuable he has become and are happy getting offense from anywhere they can get it

[trule23 119]

i wish we could hit the net

[vladdy16 2,154]

Evidently, we cannot score or win without Weiss on Ice.

Weiss on ice is nice.

[derblaueClaus 1,668]

Mrazek with a .600 save pct atm? Ouch. I don't have a tv feed here, was the second one on him or the D?

Also, were they bad pass goals?

Defense. Kindl made a bad decision that led to a 2 on 1 that ended up beautifully executed in Mrazeks net.

So no bad pass goals so far.

What is Kindl doing there ?

[gowings00 545]

Kindl and Smith -2 and completely lost defensively together. Ouellet in Grand Rapids, though.

"WE LIKE OUR TEAM! What is wrong with you stupid fans and stupid coaches?" -Holland

[TheXym 2,606]

Two periods left to ge it back. Cone out hard. Change up the D. Kronwall-Smith. Ericsson-Kindl, DeKeyser-Quincey. I liked how Smith and Kronwall gelled while Ericsson was out last season.

[sjr2012 439]

yea I feel somehow we are going to have to pull the trigger on someone here no more tip toeing if we want to get results we are going to have to make a move

[derblaueClaus 1,668]

Still plenty of time. As we didn't score more than one goal per game during this skid I predict that we will win this if get one more behind Neuvirth. Bold addition: Even if it gets to the SO.

When it comes to beer Germans never joke. Ever.

Idk man.

You're going to tell me the first person to make radler was completely serious about it to begin with?

[sjr2012 439]

We believe it was invented by some Italian or French agent. No German would put anything other in his beer than water, hop and malt.

I don't know what you guys are talking about, everybody knows it's the refs who cost Detroit all their games. If not for the league's bias, and refs interference we'd win 75 games a year. A roster full of all stars couldn't overcome the insidious plotting of the black and white.

[haroldsnepsts 4,826]

Defense. Kindl made a bad decision that led to a 2 on 1 that ended up beautifully executed in Mrazeks net.

So no bad pass goals so far.

Pretty much what you said.

Terrible decision on his part. Followed up by stopping skating at the end so Stewart was wide open for the goal.

Someone remind me why he's still on the team, let alone in the lineup?

Kindl had a bad break on that pinch, but I think that second goal really falls on Nyquist, who's responsibility as the high forward in that situation is to back-check to cover for Kindl. Nyquist was slow skating back, and Kindl, even though he committed to the offensive zone (and the puck passed him by) was still able to beat Nyquist back and almost take Buffalo's second forward. I harp on Kindl a lot, but I'm pointing the finger at Nyquist on this one before Kindl.

[haroldsnepsts 4,826]

Wow. If they're calling that a trip on Datsyuk, that's ridiculous. What a dive.

[wingfan1991 221]

It's truly becoming comical now watching these teams come into Detroit and just play the game of their lives. Every goalie stands on his head and it doesn't look like we will ever win another game. Hate these slumps!

[Jesusberg 1,256]

Kindl still being on this team has to be the most mind-numbingly frustrating situation this season. Ouellet was 4th in TOI in his last game, and Kindl's glued to the bench tonight. Wake the f*** up Holland and MOVE him. Babcock doesn't trust him - he's useless here.

[haroldsnepsts 4,826]

Holy crap, the Wings hit someone. Keep it up boys!

[trule23 119]

miller just straightened girgenson's eyes

Nyquist doesn't look good too but it's Kindl responsibility to make sure that kind of play doesn't happen. If you're not sure don't leave your position. Especially as a defender in that situation.

[jimmyemeryhunter 2,747]

Drew miller of all people, and it was a good hit.

[haroldsnepsts 4,826]

It's like the whole team caught Sammyitis.

I've never seen so many shots go off shin pads.
