NerveDamage 4,176 Report post Posted April 1, 2016 (edited) Still it will be 4th line minutes Glenny doesn't put 4th line minutes... Edited April 1, 2016 by NerveDamage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e_prime 1,936 Report post Posted April 1, 2016 As said before, those line combos will last all of five minutes so everyone with the britches in a bunch about Mantha's minutes. Simmahh dahn nahh, ya hear? As for Ericsson's insertion. 1 Jesusberg reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesusberg 1,256 Report post Posted April 1, 2016 (edited) Honestly, it doesn't matter where Athanasiou and/or Mantha slot in. Their ice time is going to stay the same because of how Blashill utilizes them in relation to special teams. Mantha gets a few minutes more because of the power play.Glendening's minutes are where they are because spends far too much time on the penalty kill, and because Blash decides to use him when he shortens the bench late in games.Edit: Looks like Dubnyk's in for the Wild tonight. I expect them to have a lot of jump after last night. Wings need to survive early. Edited April 1, 2016 by Jesusberg 1 NerveDamage reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted April 1, 2016 (edited) why blocked? anytime the Wings are on NHL Network or NBC/SN, they block the games on GameCenter/NHL.tv now. I cannot get NHL Network here - the cable company will not air it because the NHL wants so much for the rights, the TWC people said it is gouging, and they refuse to negotiate. So... no hockey for me. I will see if I can find a stream somewhere.... but will not pay the NHL one more penny for GameCenter which is a total rip off. Game related comment: I am glad to see Jimmy in goal. He has been playing well... .if only he could score goals. /snark-asm And for just a second, I actually hoped that the AF threat about Cleary was true. Veteran leadership on the ice - never a bad thing. LGRW!! Edited April 1, 2016 by puckloo39 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aethernum 276 Report post Posted April 1, 2016 oh right those damn blackouts. I'd be mad as well. They do that even in the playoffs right? Yup, just about every playoff game will be nationally televised, so there's no seeing them on Gamecenter/NHL.tv. I, too, just discovered that my game will be blacked out - and I don't even live in Michigan. Apparently FS-D+ broadcasts nationally tonight, so even though there would be no hope of finding that channel where I live, I have to find a stream in order to watch. At some point in the very near future, major sports leagues and media companies are going to wake up to the reality of the internet and have to realize how inane blackout restrictions are, before their broadcasts go the way of newspapers and letter writing. If somebody wants it, they're going to find it, so you may as well let them pay you for it instead of encouraging them to go elsewhere. Whoever figures that out first is going to get a big pay day. Too bad nobody with any sense is making these decisions. Okay, rant over. Jimmy in net is the right call tonight. What I'll be looking for is whether the team gives up any soft goals early in periods - in the last ten games I think there have been five or six goals in the first minute of a period. Have to be dialed in and focused at this point in the season, and with this much on the line. Tonight could be big for us. Go, Wings, Go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
