Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted March 9, 2017 Well, this is rock bottom gang. At least we're pretty certain to finish bottom three and get a lottery pick. We need it. I've thought all year even though he's brutal and clearly not an NHL coach that Kenny would give Blash another year, but we are a disaster. Carey Price would have average numbers behind this group.

joesuffP 1,746 Report post Posted March 9, 2017 The worst part about suffering through the defense being crap is that they all have zero potential to be good one day. Their just bodies on the ice that are terrible and have no future in the NHL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wish Putin was the owner of this team. I mean some of the reason this is rough is because we smartly traded Vanek, Smith, Ott, plus Jurco (though he wouldn't be playing) And I like that Blash put our youth as the top 6 (plus Z): tat-Z-Ny, And AA, Larkin, Mantha. Let them make their mistakes and sink or swim (sinking seems to be the current state of things). The stakes are low and that's what you should do when you're out of playoff contention. Bunch of rookies out there tonight: Russo, Jensen, XO, Coreau, Mantha, AA, Just got to get Miller out the line up too. Maybe let Kronwall rest. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kliq 3,755 Report post Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) Traditionally when teams get to this point in the season where the playoffs are out of the picture, they tend to lose out. Very hard to motivate a player to put that extra bit into everything they do when it really doesnt matter, and if anything hurts them in the draft. Don't take this the wrong way, Im not saying they are not trying, I'm saying that as a whole (Z excluded) I dont think they are giving 100% effort. I dont see why everyone is so mad and moody about the game, we are out of it. Its better we lose. If we start to win we dont make the playoffs, we get a worse pick, and Blashill likely stays. We lose out, we get a better pick and Blashill has a higher probability of being let go.

Why risk further damage for nothing I would try Kronwall on the powerplay in the Holmstrom role. He's so good at screening his own goalie, let's see how he screens the opposing goalie. OMG! Kronwall just scored his first goal since 2009. Edited March 9, 2017 by GMRwings1983 2 Hockeymom1960 and puckloo39 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
