slothfacekilla Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Compher was such a good signing. Great takeaway and pass by him to set up Big Ras to make it 2-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gehringer_2 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 fabulous bit of hand-eye coordination by Ras to set himself up for goal #2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothfacekilla Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Seider -> DeBrincat -> Larkin goal!! And the BJ's took a penalty on Larkin so they'll get another PP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothfacekilla Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Copp on the PP! Great shot by Raymond to get the rebound for Copp to slam in. The Wings are buzzin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickey and Daniels were so busy talking about Skittles they hadn't mentioned Det was already on the PP. So the goal cancelled out the balance of that one and the hook/slash was assessed. One goal only cancels one penalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben9753 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 It’s hilarious that players can start boxing in middle of a game. Imagine any other sport where play stops and two players just go at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine any other sport where play stops and two players just go at it. I was a little surprised that when they took so long to size each other up that the officials didn't take that opportunity to stop them before they started. The league is so schizophrenic about fighting in the game. The attitude changes from season to season and sometimes month to month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordstanley Posted October 17, 2023 Author Share Posted October 17, 2023 Watching Chicago defeat the Leafs 3-1 and I hear the name Arvid Soderblom on the Hawks.

buddha Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 that was the red wings' most complete victory in a while. as noted, if theyre going to win it will be with depth and that's how theyre winning. strong forward play defensively and collective offense. theyre turning teams over on the forecheck and getting the puck back. they can get the puck out of their own zone much better than in previous years. pittsburgh and ottawa coming up will be good measuring sticks. different teams than new jersey for sure. the other promising sign is the top line. larkin-debrincat-raymond has been a solid first line with debrincat playing really well. how a line with debrincat and raymond holds up against a bigger forechecking team on the road remains to be seen. they might need to break that up with a bigger forward at times. the defense is still a work in progress but gothisbere and holl have been decent so far. mistakes have been from maata, seider, and (of course) chairot. given their age, i expect some injuries and to see lots of edvinsson at some point this year. or to see him traded for a star...

Holl shows a little flair on his skates for a big guy. Doesn't guarantee anything about his quality of play but always nice to see a bit of plus skating out there. You notice Petry was not out there tonight. I'll leave it at that. > they might need to break that up with a bigger forward at times. seems likely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinzaki Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Copp is looking a touch quicker this year. Some excellent passing from Veleno...he looked good last night as the 3C. That goal by Ras really showed his strength and reach. Columbus has some nice players...don't seem to be meshing well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gehringer_2 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 At least to far, the Wings seem to be getting away from playing such a simple game, which I think is a good sign. It was like under Blashill he didn't want them playing anything but dead simple hockey. That's fine to limit how bad the losses a bad team is going to suffer are going to get, but if you start getting skilled players you need to start seeing skill level play - less dump and chase, more sophisticated passing schemes, more effort to retain possession instead of just constantly clearing the puck back to the opposition. And yes - it can sometimes backfire, but you can't beat good teams without playing a higher level game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordstanley Posted October 17, 2023 Author Share Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) The Wings are becoming more skilled upfront, but I would still rate the goaltending tandem as league average or worse and the 7 defensemen (even with the added depth) as a group decidedly below league average. That puts a ceiling on this team. Seider and Walman are good NHL defensemen, Maata is pretty good. Edvinsson might be pretty good shortly after being called up. So we need at least two of Petry, Holl, Gostisbehere and Chiarot to "not suck" - I'm not sure that's a given.

OTOH, you never know when a goalie might just surprise you for a season - so we can hope for that.

slothfacekilla Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I have liked what I've seen from Holl and Gostisbehere honestly, not perfect but they've been pretty solid. https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/expect-sabres-red-wings-and-rangers-to-be-in-mix-for-patrick-kane It is Seravalli so most likely he's just making it up but more smoke for Kane -> Detroit as a possibility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
