GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 nobody here can defend Howard. He was total blame for this entire s*** stain. He s*** the bed in Dallas, he was the entire blame tonight. How much longer do we have to put up with this poor excuse for a goalie? Relax. Franzen is coming back soon. 6 CaliforniaWingsFan, LeftWinger, Detroit \# 1 Fan and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cnot19 191 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 Man, you'd think there would be a book on Gus already, that's his move. Need a save.. There maybe a book on him but if you think he's goig five hole he can beat you with the shot very tough save for a goalie since he uses his speed too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 4,953 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 If Howard doesn't play for another three weeks, I won't lose any sleep...........Literally. If not for him, we'd all get 20 minutes of more sleep tonight. if not for Howard, we'd be in first overall in the NHL. 3 WingsAlways, aflac9262 and MrazekFanBoy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoalieManPat 1,007 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 Should have been two points. Im one of the bigger Howard supporters here but man there is no defending him tonight. Those first two were straight atrocious. Cant do much on the third since Kronners ass was in his face which seems to be becoming a trend. Datsyuk was a man among boys tonight. Still 5 of 6 pts halfway through the toughest trip of the season. Will take it. Worst part of the night was having to listen to the Ducks broadcast on NHL network. s*** those guys are just plain terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WingsallTheway 383 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 Oh my god the howard haters are out in full force tonight lol... Stop drinking and go to bed I like Howard but his rebound control was awful on those two goals and he should probably never suit up in a shootout for the remainder of his career Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 Oh my god the howard haters are out in full force tonight lol... Stop drinking and go to bed Howard haters? He gave up 2 weak goals to get Anaheim back in the game, and didn't stop a shot in the shootout. Loss is on him, he'll bounce back, but tonight no question why we didn't get two points.

barabbas16 499 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 Fortunate to get a point due to the goaltender's passing the puck to the opposition and then allowing them to slide it underneath him. Howard deserved every bit of a regulation loss and his team bailed him out to take it to OT after he single-handedly threw away the two goal lead. Then he failed everyone again in the shootout... making zero saves, which is his shootout specialty. 1 aflac9262 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 Wings played a great game, and did everything they could for the first 40. Second period was excellent, third.. not so much. We get Monster tomorrow night. Block those shots and finish it in regulation, boyz. You know you can't win a shoot out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How much longer do we have to put up with this poor excuse for a goalie? He was the teams MVP the first half of the season so thats pretty good for a poor excuse for a goalie. Your going to have to put up with him for quite a few more seasons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WingsAlways 486 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 Oh my god the howard haters are out in full force tonight lol... Stop drinking and go to bed I'm not a Howard hater, but statistics don't lie. If we as fans are more comfortable and confident with someone else in net imagine how the players feel, they work their asses off only to lose a game they deserve to win while we just spectate.

HadThomasVokounOnFortSt 878 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 Oh my god the howard haters are out in full force tonight lol... Stop drinking and go to bed What's the excuse on the 2 goals in the 3rd where he left massive rebounds? Or the fact we could've put no one in net for the shootout and that would of done about the same. Curious how anyone could defend this guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoalieManPat 1,007 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 if not for Howard, we'd be in first overall in the NHL. Does Howard suck in the shootout....hell yes. But to say with another goalie the Wings would have won all those shootouts is just flat wrong. People forget that the Wings are one of the worst teams at converting there shots in the league.

mustbeburtreynolds 14 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 How is it dumb? It's been the rule for quite some time. It's the same under USA Hockey, Hockey Canada, NCAA, Juniors, etc I just personally feel it is silly to allow a player who JUST took a penalty to participate and possibly win the game for his team. It would be analagous to wiping penalties after regulation and letting everyone back in for overtime. But then again the shootout is f*cking retarded to begin with, no reason to have any consistency in the rules when you're already tarnishing the integrity and spirit of the game night in and night out. #firebettman #firehoward Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhah 195 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) I normally don't bag on Howard, but those were two straighforward shots in the SO from the Ducks. I have no idea how that dude is 9 for 13 now. Silverslug or whatever. Edited February 24, 2015 by Rhah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silverslug or whatever. Dude can pick his spot and hit it. Everyone knows hes going to skate to the hash and rip it. Doesnt mean you can stop it. He does what I wish the Wings would do. Stop with the dangles and just pick a spot and hit it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted February 24, 2015 Eyeball test makes me want Mrazek more. He will be rock solid for 3 or 4 then have a stinker. I'm okay with that and I'd rather that then having subpar games every night but not having any complete meltdowns. 1 MrazekFanBoy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
