brett 1,029 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 we dont have the assets to get trouba and the ones we do have holland wont move. no trades coming, buckle up going to be a long ride Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dominator2005 558 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 Boyle shoot was perfect... hard to blame Mrazek when Marchenko made an error in offensive zone. DeKe and Marchenko were brutal tonight. 3 minutes ago, brett said: we dont have the assets to get trouba and the ones we do have holland wont move. no trades coming, buckle up going to be a long ride Winnipeg needs LHD, about same age and potential as Trouba. They don't need more forwards. It seems like Larkin was asking price for Shattenkirk but even that wasn't confirmed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juklitz 85 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 26 minutes ago, wings_fanatic said: Z was okay. He was not. Some nice moves along the boards and crease, but terrible skating and limited usage. Nielsen needs fast puck mover and Z is really not. Not suitable for 1st line 2016 NHL edition. Not even for 2nd. In general, Tampa is currently elsewhere. I can see them with sc this season easily, they just need to get some blueline upgrades (as you could see, there´s a major difference to play with or without Hedman/Stralman). We´re no match for them, honestly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedWingsRox 614 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 Didn't watch the game but just looked at boxscore. Safe to assume our D was sh*t? That and undisciplined ... way too many penalty? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 4,959 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 I think Z is not 100%. In that case he hurts us more than he helps. Take a few more off Z, get healthy. We need you healthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AtlantaHotWings 987 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 sitting 25th in the league after last night our quest for a high end pick begins.....hmmm along with Chicago, Columbus, Buffalo etc etc. This team needs to learn how NOT to relax. They have no killer instinct in them like past Wings teams had. Notice how Tampa cranked it up at tie and especially after gaining the lead? I think that's what we lack but hey its just my opinion and 81 games to go. We could go 81 - 1 this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joesuffP 1,746 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 Officials didn't help us out when the wings had control. PK was brutal. Mrazek needs to be better. Defense needs to be better with the puck. In zone defense from all 5 players needs to be better. Stupid penalties In zone offense looked good when they were able to get up ice efficiently. Once Tampa started dumping it and getting on the defense the wings had no answer. Coming up ice is a huge struggle this defense hasn't learned to break a forecheck 1 datterberg1340 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacksoni 418 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 That's right Joesuff, once Tampa changed it up and started dumping the puck we got cooked. This scenario will repeat all season long unless the defense handles pressure better. I can only see that happening if we get better Defensemen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
