We need to limit Edmonton getting PP.. They been really good at it this season.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Give away from none other than Dekeyser easy goal for Edmonton. Still after 2 Detroit leads 3-1.

 

[biggunsbob]

Damn late goal in second?shoot.

 

[biggunsbob]

Oh no it?s 3-2. Come on Wings.

 

[biggunsbob]

Goalie has to stop that.

 

[biggunsbob]

Holy shit how many great saves does the Edmonton goalie have in him ?

 

[biggunsbob]

Awful power play.

 

[biggunsbob]

Wings are in the lower half of the league in winning face offs that was why I was shocked Steve let Luke go. I guess Luke never scored enough. But man our face offs suck.

 

[biggunsbob]

Mcdavid is something.

 

[biggunsbob]

Boom ! 4-2 Empty netter !

 

[biggunsbob]

That is 3 wins in a row . How about that.

 

[sggatecl]

That was the most entertaining game of Red Wings hockey I've seen in years. So much fun.

 

[Mitchrapp]

That first period alone might be the best I've seen in a long time. I love it when they win.

 

[biggunsbob]

Great game. Larkins goal was fun. He snapped the goalies stuck up and tuck the puck and scored. Wings Goalie made some great saves.

Yeah I wish they would have kept him. He was a pretty good defensive forward also.

Well it?s set, the Redwings are the best pro team in Detroit and closest and in best position to be a contender sooner rather than later.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Out of significant FO time only two under 50's, Suter and Stephens. Suter 2nd season and its an improvement on last season and his last 5 games have been good. Stephens has been better in the past so I'm not worried about it. Even Glendening is under 50% with Dallas this season.

Anyway as a team I think we're 19th so not so bad. But there are times in the defensive zone late in a game or PP that can test my mental strength.
