lordstanley Posted March 3, 2023 Author Share Posted March 3, 2023 Wings were just 5 seconds away from killing the OT penalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gehringer_2 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 (edited) this team.... always giving it up the last seconds of a period and the last seconds of the PP. Three goals in this game after a PP almost or completely killed. It's like they always exhale a few beats too early. And Seider can't be taking that penalty in OT.

lordstanley Posted March 4, 2023 Author Share Posted March 4, 2023 Wings haven’t done much today, 8 shots midway through game. But still scoreless versus islanders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

lordstanley Posted March 4, 2023 Author Share Posted March 4, 2023 (edited) Wings almost gave up a shorthanded goal but come right back down the ice to score. 1-0 late in 2nd. Edited March 4, 2023 by lordstanley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordstanley Posted March 4, 2023 Author Share Posted March 4, 2023 It’s amazing how Tampa has helped wreck our playoff hopes. In their past 5 games they have defeated the Wings but lost to Pittsburgh twice, to Florida and to Buffalo. Now they’re losing to Buffalo again today, 5-1 in the 3rd.

lordstanley Posted March 4, 2023 Author Share Posted March 4, 2023 (edited) Now 3-1 NYI. i believe this will be the Wings’ 6th loss in 7 games, a 1-5-1 stretch. Edited March 4, 2023 by lordstanley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gehringer_2 Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Ras and Hronek are major losses, Sunqvist is a midlevel loss, and your #1 goaltender is hurting. If they were roughly a 500 team last week, they certainly are not now. This is why you need a hard core guy as GM willing to take the shot from the fans and media for torpedoing his team in the short run.

Does the protected 2023 Islanders pick turn into a 2024 Canucks unprotected? Or a 2024 Islanders unprotected? I was under the impression that the Islanders pick stays the Islanders pick, whether we land that in 2023 (protected) or 2024 (unprotected)? NOT that it changes into the Canucks pick...? Also, your logic is wrong. If the 2023 pick is protected and the Islanders make the playoffs we GET the 2023 pick... No? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1984Echoes Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I'd like to see Ned, Soderblom, and Edvinsson come back up (or "up" in Edv's case...). Ned & Soderblom for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The roster is down 5 spots, someone has to suit up. Edited March 4, 2023 by gehringer_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOT that it changes into the Canucks pick...? Oooh, that's a good and important point and it seems to be hard to get clarity on that. If it's just the Isles pick regardless, I definitely want them to make the playoffs now so we can pick this year. I don't think the NYI will drop too far next year, if at all.

1984Echoes Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Good start to this game... Husso's in net. And the Wings took a 1-0 lead on the Flyers with a Perron goal... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
