The Flyers are absolutely dreadful lol

I absolutely love his hustle / tenacity so far

Oof Larkin caught a weird edge and went down hard. He went off the ice slowly during play...hopefully nothing.

I think this is the first time I've noticed this, but Zadina made an absolutely god awful play that lost the Wings possession in the zone (okay we've seen that before but hold on...) and instead of skating around moping he made a hard play against a player on the boards and won the puck. He was able to make a nice pass to get a re-entry into the zone. It was one of the few times (only times?) that I can remember Zadina initiating physical contact to win a puck so successfully, good to see him do it after flubbing a deke.

Nice pass by Smith to Veleno to make it 1-0! Smith and Sundqvist did a lot of dirty work in front of the net while Veleno skated and picked his spot.

Rumor is that the Wings made a serious offer for Barzal out of the Islanders....would have been interesting.

Wow the Leafs love their former Red Wing legend goalies... nice to see Sateri getting another shot I didn't think he would.

I completely missed this. Pretty solid get for the Stars.

Happy about the 2nd. Sundqvist is whatever, fourth line PK guy. Walman was once highly thought of as a prospect but has slipped down rankings every year. Then he was relegated to sheltered / 7th d minutes. At this point probably not much there but some guys develop late so maybe it can be a little something.

I was way off, interesting trade: https://twitter.com/DetroitRedWings/status/1505968759315521548?s=20&t=AJUCmI10FuvQmsKFo6x3Nw

Supposedly the Panthers are interested in Leddy. I'm not sure they have a first round pick for a while already.

It only makes sense if they are getting paid to take his salary but this article makes it sound like this is a move to win haha

I have zero clue why they would be interested in Petry. Old, has played pretty bad this year and I've seen some Habs fans say he's checked out. Odd. I'm hoping this is just speculation.

I don't know why but I expect the Wings to be quiet at the deadline. Looking like a real nice pick after some quiet nepotism claims tied to Draper. Maybe he knows what he's doing?

Tuned in to see the last 10 minutes or so of the game, looked like a penalty kill for the Wings the whole time! Glad they hung on.

Leddy is apparently sitting tonight to keep him healthy for a potential trade

Wings also scored a called off goal, Suter tipped a puck like four feet above the crossbar it was pretty funny

Absolute domination by the Oilers so far

Called up Hirose after the awful Fabbri news. I guess they want Berggren to play big minutes in the AHL?

I never realized how much I liked Matt Dumba before this game. Seemed like he kept doing the whole ignore the player going at him while the play is going then talk trash when the linesmen are between everyone after the play. Which I don't fault him but it is also annoying after what he did to Raymond.

First period Wings goals: https://hlslive-wsczoominwestus.med.nhl.com/editor/4f749a9c-abfc-4bc1-93be-a23d6576b432.mp4 https://streamable.com/mpy9ov https://hlslive-wsczoominwestus.med.nhl.com/editor/4179a083-833f-4fb3-8e1b-94aa5c719c16.mp4

Leddy with another assist on that second Vrana power play goal (secondary, Hronek made a very nice no look pass to set it up).... pump that trade value!!!
