Wings almost gave up a shorthanded goal but come right back down the ice to score. 1-0 late in 2nd.

Are you sure about that? I thought if the islanders miss the playoffs the pick will move to 2024. If the Islanders make the playoffs, the Wings pick this year. I may be wrong.

Wings haven’t done much today, 8 shots midway through game. But still scoreless versus islanders.

Wings were just 5 seconds away from killing the OT penalty.

Big late kill preserved at least a point. 4-4 heading to OT.

Goals galore.

I’m not giving up on season. A couple of quick wins and the Wings are right back in it.

1st string goalie has been the least of the Wings’ problems this year, may even be their MVP. Need a better backup, but shouldn’t be too expensive.

Unfortunately I was correct.

Watch him yield less than we got for Hronek.

When did I say that? I made two posts. In one I reported that Canuck talk radio is angry and confused by the trade, I didn’t say anything about disagreeing with that. In the second post I speculated that the Wings could be able to get more for that 1st round pick than they gave up to get it

Assumption is that Yzerman will use this new pick to swap for someone better than Hronek now or at draft or in summer, right?

Vancouver talk radio is on fire. Have been listening here since trade went down. Nothing personal against Hronek, but they are all dumbfounded as to why the Canucks made this move now.

Wings could have used a few truckers last night and tonight. https://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/downtown-ottawa-roads-businesses-shut-down-as-freedom-convoy-protesters-flood-parliament-hill-1.5759563 Fireworks and the sounds of truck horns filled the air on a cold Saturday evening, as thousands of truckers and their supporters remained in downtown Ottawa. The ‘Freedom Convoy’ demonstrators are protesting COVID-19 vaccine mandates and other public health restrictions, with no word on what will happen next or how long they are planning to stay. The number of vehicles and people converging on the area around Parliament Hill caused total gridlock in the city's core, closing roads and forcing a downtown mall to close early for the day.

Nyquist traded to Minnesota. For just a 5th round pick. I remember how excited it seemed when he first came up. I believe 2013 was his magical spring, practically a goal a game against one point

Wings have been outscored 10-3 in 4 periods in Ottawa so far.

Our defense and goal may be closer to being fixed than our forward lines. I wouldn't have predicted that 2 years ago.

Geez, I wish Tampa had been interested in Bertuzzi. The6 gave up 5 draft picks for Tanner Jeannot!

Problem is the Lightning lost to Buffalo the other night and got blown out by Pittsburgh today. Thanks a lot, Tampa.

Ken Kal reminds us why the Wings are playing back to back games in Ottawa. I knew it had been due to a prior cancellation of some sort but had forgotten the details.

Not good.

Weirdly, I may feel better about the Wings’ playoff chances after this 3-0 loss than I did before the game.
