Same teams play in Detroit on Saturday. I am Expecting the same result. But dare to dream !
 
They need to start hitting and our new Captain needs to play better.
 
In terms of hitting, that was well above average for Detroit.

Especially in the first period.

Wings had enough chances to make that a tied game, just couldn't bury it.

They had a few chances but as the saying goes if you don't shoot you can't score. They said they wanted to win puck possession but they have to shoot more.

Depends what you mean by puck possession.


A lot of people take corsi as a means of possession but that's not entirely true especially when playing against strong cycle teams like that of de Boer.

They could cycle for 1-3 minutes at a time and not take many shots. Where as another team would just pepper the net from the outside, boosting their corsi/shot stats.


Scoring chances and time on attack are more important. But that's just me and that's a minority opinion.


The Wings best chances that game didn't even count as shots. Brome's post for example. There was a couple more where Wings had very good chnces but puck didn't make it to net.

Doesn't help Mantha was shooting everything wide. Mantha had a dogshit of a game.

It's just the announcers said the team wanted to possess the puck more.
 
They score quick 3rd to tie it up, Larkin gets his first almost right away to take a 2-1 lead.
 
Zadina to Fabbri. Good pass by Zadina behind the goal.
