Rhah 195 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 Why does this guy's line have to tear the Wings up every year? (well, last year and this one... but I am sure its becoming a trend, just like Ben Bishop becoming the greatest goalie in the history of Hockey when he faces Detroit.). 1 canadian wings fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

luvmnger 125 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 now, i dont hate him (yet)...but he is annoying as all hell. hes not lemieux, or deadmarsh, talbot or kane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt198913 932 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 He's a good player and finds the quiet areas. Glenner does a great job on him though. Keep that matchup and you can win this series Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McAwesome 754 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 Agreed 100%, something about his face makes me want to punch it, or see it punched. Reminds me of a Brad Marchand or Alex Burrows type, one of those spot-picking, non-stop chirping, pain in the @$$ guys that seems to particularly enjoy rubbing it in the faces of the opposing team and their fans. Too bad he wasn't the one Abby got a hold of to pound on at the end of game 2. Now that Blash is matching him up against that line, perhaps we will still get to see it. I'd go so far as to say all would be forgiven if Ericsson were to administer the beatdown. 4 Rick D, 13dangledangle, canadian wings fan and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheDetroitRedWings 286 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 I absolutely hate him. He's a pretty good player against anyone else, but against us he's a full blown elite superstar, on a consistent basis, in the playoffs and regular season. Not to mention he's a whining cry baby. I have no issues at all with Ben Bishop though. He's really good against most teams. Tyler Johnson is the Jim Thome of the NHL (any Tigers fans will get that reference).

xtrememachine1 795 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 I'm not a fan of Tyler Johnson either, but its more of a "ugh, he's always doing good things for his team and causing us to lose" hate. Jon Cooper on the other hand... I hope somebody "accidently" shoots the puck into the TB bench high and hard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,803 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 Agreed. We should bring Bertuzzi back to paralyze him. 1 kylee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacksoni 418 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 He's quite small, about 5´8. One good hit from a defender has the chance to injure him. He hasn't got caught big yet though. I think we got him last series. He hurt his hand, unsure if it was broken or some ligament damage. It was from a hit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) Agreed. We should bring Bertuzzi back to paralyze him. If only Ericsson used all of his weight... Or if Kronwall actually Kronwalled him. Not like we really need Kronwall as much anymore with the way DK and Marchenko stepped up. He might as well go back to decimating players and risk suspension. Lol and I see what you did with the paralyzed comment. Edited April 18, 2016 by kickazz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bully76 34 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 For me it's the whole Tampa Bay team. Every clean hit against them they cry. Every penalty called they whine and cry all the way to the box. Last nights game is a prime example. Tyler Johnson resurfaced the ice on the way to the box with tears both times he was penalized. 1 McAwesome reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Secret 304 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 Tyler Johnson is what one or both of Nyquist and Tatar should be.

kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 (edited) Tyler Johnson is what one or both of Nyquist and Tatar should be. I would gladly trade Nyquist + Tatar + their european cloak of invisibility for Tyler Johnson The difference is that if it came down to it, Tyler Johnson is surrounded by big players that can protect him on ice. We have an Abdelkader. Johnson wouldn't work here as well as one might think. Edited April 19, 2016 by kickazz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 Johnson always acts like a total ***** when he is called for a penalty - more than any player I can think of . The guy legit thinks he can do no wrong. Contrast that to Datsyuk who just takes his seat in the box when it happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kipwinger 8,754 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 I once saw Tyler Johnson described as a maidmer. Which, apparently, is the opposite of a mermaid. Being a fish top half with a human lower half.
