You do know Hossa tripped over The net/quicks stick right?  Hossa the strongest guy on skates in the NHL and he was on YOUR Team playing like this before and you want to call him a diver. lol.  pathetic.

You do know that Hossa is the best salesman in the NHL, right?  It's not just fans on a message board, it's the players calling him out.  But I guess they don't know anything about the game either, right?

I think a better definition of pathetic is coming to a Wings board when we're no longer playing and "defending" your team.  Why do you care what a bunch of Wings fan say, anyway?  We're not even in the same conference anymore.  You don't have to worry about Detroit until if you make the SCF.  

And while you're at it, why don't you guys try and come up with something else to chant at your games before you all redefine "pathetic."

Now that the Wings have gone beyond all our rational expectations, can the people who are posting things like "God, we are awful" please just cool it for the rest of the playoffs? We are going to get scored on. And we are going to lose games. That's not Kind. That's not Samuelson. That's not Howard. THAT'S F$%KING SPORTS, PEOPLE. Now is the time to cheer for the Wings. Not trash them. We've got a good squad.

Do I need to go dig up all the posts of you complaining?

Just because you've decided to be all sunshine about the Wings now that they've evened the series doesn't mean everyone here needs to fall in line with whatever way the winds have blown your opinion today.  Your newfound optimism is no different than people venting saying the Wings suck after a tough loss.

 

It's actually not even that.  If Dallas wins in regulation vs. Columbus, then Detroit would only need 1 point to clinch a playoff spot. A Stars win in regulation would mean Columbus could finish no higher than 53 points, and the Stars could finish no higher than 52. Detroit's already at 52, so they would only need the one point to ensure no less than a tie with CBJ, which defaults to Detroit due to the ROW tiebreaker.

Well said, it's so refreshing to see someone who knows the proper usages of then and than.

I'm petitioning Matt to bring Murph in as LGW's next Mod.

Would that not be freakin' AWESOME?  

I choose to believe that really he just picked the topic at random as a thinly veiled excuse to start another line combo thread.

I figured out what's wrong with Helm's back.  It's shuddering from the anticipation of carrying the team on it when he returns because, according to LGW, no one else is doing anything on this team to the point that every thread becomes an anti- Flip-Franzen-Cleary-Abby-random injured person (circle all that apply) thread.

Why would they not just ban the account for now then figure the rest out? The dude is STILL posting new threads right this very minute. Amazing how the mods will ban accounts (within minutes) over someone bringing up the detroit pistons, yet this guy posts spam for hours on end and not one mod banned the account... SMH

He's a very promising young player but still needs to work on his puck possession.

Spam ads for drugs on a forum for a team who has 57 guys injured..spammer and a troller lol

Nyquist should play with Datsyuk and Flip.  I want to see if that can be a long-term line.  

The world has never seen the kind of stick handling and passing that a line with those three would put together.  Their zone entries would be a thing of art, their jaw dropping toe drags a gift from the heavens themselves.  It would be as if Marty St. Louis was cloned twice and unlike the movie Multiplicity, neither of the clones would be semi-retarded, and they would pass and pass so fluidly that one might be tricked into thinking that the Datsyuk-Flip-Nyquist line had somehow melded with the winds and waves of the earth into one big flowing hockey life cycle.

It would be the most brilliantly skilled line to never score a goal in the National Hockey league, of course.   

It's fine if it's optional, and i'd opt out of it. Making it a mandatory piece of equipment for your console to run is crap though. I understand some people enjoy it, but a majority do not, and i'm not bashing people who enjoy it in the slightest. All i'm saying is it's kind of like if you buy a blu ray player, spend $200 on it with every intention to watch a movie, and you open the box to the manual saying "You are all ready to go, as soon as you purchase the necessary cable for it to work, you can order it for $99 online!" I don't want to be forced into spending extra money for something I will never use just to make the console function properly. It should be an add-on accessory, not a necessity for operation. 

For me personally, when I get home from a long day of work, I don't want to stand in front of my console, wave my arms around and jump around just to play a video game. I want to sit back, kick up my feet, and use a controller to play whatever I want. If people want to do that, fine, but sell it separately. It's working fine now, they sell arcade consoles, standard consoles, and kinect consoles, because people want the option of having the equipment they want and not having to purchase the add-ons they don't want.
