PavelValerievichDatsyuk 1,935 Report post Posted November 13, 2015 Love the lines. Been saying Sheahan should be tried as a winger. He can do the dirty stuff along the boards and in front of the net a lot better as a winger. Hopefully he will shoot more h Pretty sure Sheahan played on Richard's wing at the beginning of the year and it didn't work I dont like playing Zetterberg and Datsyuk on the same line. We should spread the wealth now that we finally have a chance to. We need more balanced scoring. Tatar/Zetterberg/Larkin Abdelkader/Datsyuk/Nyquist Miller/Glendening/Helm Sheahan/Athanasiou/Pulkkinen Usually I'd agree, but Datsyuk probably doesn't have too much in the tank just coming back so I'm fine with it. Later, if we split them, I like your lines, but I'd switch Tatar and Nyquist. Nyquist is pretty much only good 5-on-5 when he's with Z and Datsyuk and Tatar were really good together last year when Helm was also on that line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Babcock did the same when Zetterberg was coming back from his back injury. Eased him in with Datsyuk on the top line. Worked well given the circumstances, remember Z needed a loong time to get well. He got healthy, according to himself, right before this season started. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlashyG 1,799 Report post Posted November 13, 2015 I'm home from Toronto this weekend and am going to the game... really dissapointed that mrazek isn't playing I was really hoping he would. I think it shows blash has more faith in mrazek to get us a win on the 2nd half of back to backs. Either way I am very lucky the magic man happens to be back tonight. I'm calling a magic goal. 4 to 2 wings! I doubt Blashill has any issues with confidence in either of his goalies. They've swapped back and forth for almost every game this season. They also have almost identical numbers. 1 barabbas16 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacksoni 418 Report post Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) Anybody else find these camouflage jerseys kind of ridiculous? Are they just being worn in warm-ups, or are they going to be worn in-game? Warmups only. Then signed and auctioned. I'd like to have the Larkin or Datsyuk camo one for my pond games. Too big for my wallet though.

We need more balanced scoring. Tatar/Zetterberg/Larkin Abdelkader/Datsyuk/Nyquist Miller/Glendening/Helm Sheahan/Athanasiou/Pulkkinen Datsyuk isn't 100% let alone even be able to play center. Word is he is playing on wing for now. Could be wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Find it hard to believe he would just become useless at wing. If he can play center he can play wing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They also have almost identical numbers. Also, Detroit has lost every time this season when either goaltender has started consecutively. Howard lost on 10/16 vs. Carolina after beating Tampa Bay on 10/13. Mrazek lost to Edmonton on 10/21 after losing to Montreal on 10/17. Mrazek lost to Carolina on 10/27 after beating Vancouver on 10/24. I see no reason not to keep alternating starts for the time being. It's no coincidence that mrazek has played every 2nd half of the back to backs. Despite that he still has better numbers. How much better are his numbers?

Fonzarelli 73 Report post Posted November 13, 2015 I watched the third period of the Toronto game. Those guys are really skating and playing well. I can't help but wonder why the wings rarely played like that under Babcock. Now, with Blashill, with the exception of a couple of games, they don't skate and have trouble completing a pass. Certainly the wings are more talented than Toronto. What gives? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mrazek had a shutout his last game to bring thme even. Prior to that Jimmy was better. They are both playing great! Rotating every game is working so don't mess with it. It is our O that has been the issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Namingway 146 Report post Posted November 14, 2015 It's so exciting to have Datsyuk back in the squad! He's usually one to be pretty cautious about his returns, so I'm not too worried about him having to be careful out there. He might have some rust to shake off, but even a rusty Pasha is a pianist of his own caliber. Here's to a magical evening!
