Tr!PoD#19 524 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 Need a much better effort from most of the team.. Datsyuk, Helm, Q, Dekeyser are bright spots for me. 4th line played fine too I thought Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WingsAlways 486 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 This game doesn't mean squat, sadly it'll take a loss to motivate Babs to change his approach. We may have off games but so do they. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kipwinger 8,458 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) This game is not an improvement over last game. That's just more Babcock doublespeak. If you "played better" and got murdered 5-1 then you really didn't play better at all. We got dominated just as bad this game as we did last game. Sure the shots are closer, but if you ever believed that we were in this game you're nuts. If we lost then next game 10-2, but the shots on goal are the same for both teams, is that an improvement? Of course not. Edited April 18, 2015 by kipwinger 2 Detroit \# 1 Fan and gcom007 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 4,916 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 Because Ericsson is slow and terrible at defense? I agree Mrazek should start, but your logic for it doesn't make any sense. logic is, yes E sucks and he botched the play, but that was a patented god awful rebound by Howard. Pulk should be in for Weiss. E and Q should be out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wings_fanatic 677 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 That's why Howard isn't starting game 3. That was an awful rebound to give as usual. Ericsson continues to be a pylon. My biggest problem is quincy. Dekeyser looks a lot better in the playoffs because he isn't with quincy. Meanwhile zids hasn't looked as good... I swear quincy makes everyone worse that he plays with. I want him to sit. Also we need abby in game 3 really bad. We need to establish a physical game right off the bat. I'm confident with the kids line they looked so much better this game and confident. I also think we have a chance to take stamkos off his game in Detroit like we did toews a couple years ago. He seems to be complaining a lot so the guys gotta get under his skin more so he takes penalties and such. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SimonSin 192 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 LMAO. This team is a joke. Exactly like the Boston series last year, win the first but lose the next four. So many of these garbage players need to go. Can't wait until Babcock leaves. Got completely embarrassed, they didn't deserve the playoffs. 1 RedWingsRox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcom007 1,465 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 Glad we've got an extra day. It's nice to be even after starting on the road, but anyone seeking conciliation in that alone is grasping at straws. This team has been outplayed up and down and needs to be a hell of a lot better to stand a chance. We improved in some areas, but the amount of defensive mistakes in this game was just nuts. And for the love, little GR regular season champs: did you learn absolutely nothing last year?!?!?!? I'd be mad at Z if I believed he could help it, but I just don't think he can at this point. We can't rely on him to be an offensive force. 1 RedWingsRox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
91forever 8 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Seriously Mrazek wasn't bad it's our Defense it's not there. There are a few changes I would make Ericsson wouldn't be in the line he isn't hustling and missing passes and causing us to lose the puck when in the zone to score. Weiss is not doing much either. It's not all these guys fault as a team we aren't showing up. The only way to win is get the puck and shoot more on net. Tampa Bay was poking and breaking up any chance to shoot the puck. It was hard to watch today but our biggest problem isn't in the nets IMO. Edited April 18, 2015 by 91forever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nyqvististhefuture 1,002 Report post Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Abdelkader back and pulkkinen next game needs to happen Won't happen but I'd put in ouellet for zidlicky ... Turns the puck and is to slow ... Started off amazing with those points he kept getting but I'm whatever when it comes to zidlicky now on whether or not ip he returns next yr Smith still plays too erratic and makes 2 many mistakes and kindl is kindl ... If there's a way to put in ouellet I'd do it Cbc idiots are saying for us to start with howard ... Friedman is the only wise one saying mrazek and now kypreos Edited April 18, 2015 by nyqvististhefuture Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
