BobRouse03 31 Report post Posted November 21, 2016 I missed the third period but saw that Howard took a penalty with like a minute and 15 seconds left. Why did Mantha serve the penalty? This team struggles hardcore to score goals and the one goal scorer you have sits in the box at the end of the game? Am I missing something? 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted November 21, 2016 Just now, brett said: fire blashill yet? I didn't pay much attention last year but I've noticed this year that defensively the Wings have often had a very heavy four (sometimes five) player swarm, which is just ridiculous to me. I don't know if it's just our players being stupid or if this is a coaching strategy, but it's been a regular thing this year so I'm inclined to think it's a strategic thing (but who knows). In any event it's terrible defensive hockey and it should have been addressed long ago. 1 Detroit \# 1 Fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted November 21, 2016 Mantha was our best forward in the 3rd period and Blash has him serve Howard's penalty You can't write the s*** this coach does. The race to the bottom continues. As much as it will suck if we miss the playoffs, the franchise will be better for it. I just hope as the losses mount the coach doesn't sit kids in favor of vets. Mantha, Sproul, AA need to keep playing. I'd like to see XO in as well but that will never happen. We need to have Kronwall's veteran leadership. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,793 Report post Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) How can Holland have the nerve to fire Blashill and not step down himself? He's the main problem with the team. He racked up the salary on this team despite not bringing in talented players. He overpaid all the home grown trash we have. He needs to stop taking advantage of the jaded Ilitch family and step down. Have some honor like a Japanese warrior and realize it's time to leave. Firing Blashill is another way for Holland to avoid the blame. Edited November 21, 2016 by GMRwings1983 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was gonna say, I could think of quicker methods for Holland to step down.. I know this is all frustrating, and all things considered, everything this season on these forums has been surprisingly civil. I'd like to keep it that way, maintain good discussion and less going for the throat. I speak for all the mod staff here when I say I appreciate you guys and gals and how everyone is upholding a dignified standard at this time of not-so-great hockey out of our squad. 1 derblaueClaus reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kronwall was directly responsible for the GWG. Also, Z is just too broke to carry them anymore. Best players tonight, Mantha, Larkin, Sproul, Ott and Vanek of course. Howard did what he could. I don't blame him for any of the goals. 1 puckbags reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
