buddha Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 the detroit diaspora is real. you see it for every one of their teams on the road except maybe the pistons. but the second the lions were successful they were taking over every opposing stadium. the wings have always traveled well.

When I went to the Lions @ Niners, I chatted to Lions fans living in 12 states (Oregon, Florida, Utah, Illinois, Texas, Colorado, Washington to name an few) and 3 provinces. More, because that’s just people who identified where they’re from as we talked. On my Sunday morning Vancouver-SF flight day of the game, more than 10 people on a plane of 130 people were wearing Lions gear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddha Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 they have been able to take advantage of colorado's bottom lines. wings have more depth at the bottom. but the top lines are killing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.TaterSalad Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 4-2 now, I'd say this one is over. These next two weeks workout Larkin are really going to send us tumbling down the standings I fear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordstanley Posted March 7 Author Share Posted March 7 A puck squirts past Lyon with 33 seconds to go to make it 5-2. Bedtime for fans in the Eastern time zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothfacekilla Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I think that’s it for me for the night, I would probably stick around if I wasn’t stuck with the TNT team. They rightfully are gushing about the Avs but it’s too much for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddha Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 yzerman is one secure GM, that's for sure. not selling the farm for a temporary fix was the right thing to do. theyre too far away. they get dominated almost every time they play a good team, especially on the road. larkin goes away and they fall apart. stevie's in it for the long haul, not a 4-1 exit in round one.

lordstanley Posted March 8 Author Share Posted March 8 (edited) 51 minutes ago, buddha said: they get dominated almost every time they play a good team, especially on the road. In 2024 7-7-1 overall against teams above them in the standings, 3-5 on the road (including the past 5 road games against teams above them in the standings). That drops to 4-7-1 overall and 2-5 on the road if you remove the Kings (75 points) and Knights (73 points). Jan 4 - at LA Kings - win 4-3 (SO) Jan 11 - vs. Edmonton - lose 3-2 (OT) Jan 13- vs LA Kings - win 5-3 Jan 14 - at Toronto - win 4-2 Jan 17 - at Florida - win 3-2 (OT) Jan 19 - at Carolina - lose 4-2 Jan 23 - at Dallas - lose 5-4 Jan 27 -vs Vegas - win 5-2 Feb 10 - vs Vancouver - win 4-3 (OT) Feb 13 - at Edmonton - lose 8-4 Feb 15 - at Vancouver - lose 4-1 Feb 22 - vs Colorado - win 2-1 (OT) March 2- vs Florida - lose 4-0 March 6 - at Colorado - lose 7-2 Edited March 8 by lordstanley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinzaki Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Yzerman played 14 years before winning a cup...11 before making the finals. He made the playoffs his rookie year. He understands that making the playoffs and exiting quickly is relatively meaningless against the challenge of being a real contender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger (to me) surprise is that once he decided he wasn't buying he didn't sell either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddha Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 again, they cant clear the zone and they give up an early goal. if there is one criticism of yzerman it is his love of average to below average defensemen who are "experienced." look, if steve yzerman and sergei federov are your forwards you can afford to have veteran (old) defensemen. especially if you have the greatest defenseman of all time on your blue line. but if you have larkin (good) and compher (decent) in your top six, you cant be giving multi year deals to ollie maata, justin holm, and jeff petry and think you can be a playoff contender.
