I totally disagree here. Columbus is playing the best hockey in our division right now. They have won the last 5 in a row, 3 of which they came from behind. Bobbrovski has been unreal.....second in the league in save percentage at .931. They were in 13th spot before the trade deadline and they have played hard, physical hockey and deserve to be where they are. We have a game in hand but the last 5 games they have NOT been playing the oilers....they have consecutive wins against SJ, St. Louis! Minny, Col and Anaheim last night. Everyone on that team is contributing and they frighten me. Detroit needs to take a page out of that book....never say die, never give up and keep it SIMPLE! Let's hope we can do that

 

I agree with you, watching the last couple CBJ games really impressed me as far as the passion they're playing with. They're hungry, and they want a playoff spot way more than the Wings seem to. 

Holland has really bungled the management of some of these guys. As everyone is saying, we're giving Cleary a spot over Tatar? 

 

At least clear out some of the s*** to make space for guys like this. 

 

And the logjam at D? We have 3 guys rotating into the 7th spot lol. Ridiculous. 

I'm surprised that Pittsburgh isn't getting two games. 

 

And no Coyotes vs. Vegas Gamblers in Death Valley? BOOOOOO

We have "Hockeytown" written on our center ice logo, and we're being outplayed by Columbus and Dallas for the last playoff spot.      Two undeserving hockey cities.  

 

Ilitch needs to put his foot down if this team misses the playoffs.  He's not afraid to spend, but he seems afraid to put any pressure on Holland.  

 

I agree with inflatable boobs guy

Huh, woke up this morning to see that the Wings lost their playoff spot and are now in 9th.
Kenny is the bestest.

And if not, fans can symbolically "throw in the towel(s)."

 

I actually laughed at this. Shame on you! hahaha

I really want us to make the playoffs because I believe anything can happen once your in.  But at the same time, I have not been disappointed with this season.  If we miss, we know we have given it our best effort, and we are setting ourselves up for the future.  

 

I think the positives this season outweigh the negatives.  The development of our young guys has been great.  Also, our Defense is turing into a solid, VERY young group.  That is huge for future success.

 

And if we miss the playoffs, we get a decently high pick to add to the system.  That would be huge to go with our prospects now.

 

I see what you're saying, and I agree on one hand.....but on the other hand, you have to factor in the demoralization of missing the playoffs for the first time since before Dekeyser, Lashoff, and Nyquist were even born. That is a big factor worth considering. 

Wings drop to 8th and have a 3 point cushion. However, all the teams competing for 8th also have tough schedules as well.

 

Blah.

DeKeyser's hockey sense is great

Geez the rambling these guys go on about that isn't part of the game is ridiculous

Hey did you know that Crosby is having a garage sale OMG

So they just couldn't help themselves and had to bring up that the Penguins weren't playing at all today.  Hey, guess what you idiots, we don't give a f*** about the Penguins.

??? What?? I thought this was the Penguins vs. Penguin game.

why should we care?

are pens our opponent in scf again?

no, (they wont make it that far with or without - just for the record).

 

then, phuck him.

 

This is a general hockey discussion. Don't be ignorant. 

Develano has pissed away his chance to ever GM the Detroit Red Wings, with his stupid and insanely offending comments. This organization from top to bottom is and always was about being classy and you can't tell me Mr. I was happy with this comment. You try your best to threat players well and then someone of your own organization is throwing the players under the bus like nothing? Doesn't fly with me.

 

Ummm....I think you're confusing Nill with Devellano? 

Jimmy D embarrassed the Wings organization last fall with his farm animals comments, and got fined for it as well. It wouldn't be a big stretch of the imagination to see him retiring, Holland moving up, and Nill as GM. I guess that leaves Lids to come scoop up his Assistant GM position.

Well this should indicate I don't need to watch any sports tickers tomorrow....

Not surprised and don't care. The Wings have everything a team needs right now. Granted that's when they are 100% healthy.

 

This is stupid. At the very least, the Wings could be picking up some draft picks.
