Mr.TaterSalad Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Pathetic. We've had two shots on goal this entire period. Quote
lordstanley Posted January 13 Author Posted January 13 Damn, if Ghost could have at least waited another 20 seconds before tying it. Quote
buddha Posted January 13 Posted January 13 come on larkin. another turnover at the blueline leads to a carolina break. Quote
buddha Posted January 13 Posted January 13 detroit's on the pp but carolina looks more likely to score. i'm just hopong they can get a loser point. Quote

buddha Posted January 13 Posted January 13 btw, before we trade a piece of the future for a rental or mild upgrade, remember this third period. this team cant compete with the real contenders when they turn it up. Quote
Mr.TaterSalad Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Ok, I'll take it. We didn't deserve to win after the 1st period of play. But what a goal to cap the game off and win one for Sergei on his night. Quote
buddha Posted January 13 Posted January 13 wow. what a horrible missed call! guess what carolina? makes up for that bull**** call on raymond earlier! Quote
gehringer_2 Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Ghost didn't get the call because he dove as soon as he felt Cat's stick - you can see the way his weight was distributed he was helping push himself forward to go down. 2 Quote

He decided not to call it. Sucks to give up a point to Carolina after leading by 3 but at least they got the 2. Edited January 13 by gehringer_2 Quote
sagnam Posted January 13 Posted January 13 They owed us for the Raymond penalty and for the linesman getting in the way of that outlet pass in OT. But the Wings are passive in all aspects on defense while teams like the Canes can put pressure on an offense. Don’t think we can expect to be successful in a long series playing bunched up in front of our net. Quote

Don’t think we can expect to be successful in a long series playing bunched up in front of our net. Funny thing is on the opening Canes' penalty I was going to post about how aggressively the Canes attacked the Wing's powerplay, which I would like to see the Wings do more, but of course then they gave up the PP goal so it didn't actually work out for them. 🤷♂️ I don't know how much of that late/leading passivity is McLellan's idea of game management or if they just don't execute what he actually has in mind, but their late/leading play is leaving a lot to be desired. I also wish we had a quicker player to use in the penalty kill than Rasmussen. Edited January 13 by gehringer_2 Quote

slothfacekilla Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Gostisbehere went down so easily, that's the risk you take when you try to sell a call when you're defending the front of the net. Quote

Shinzaki Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Would not have thought it were possible for me to think this way a year ago, but they need to resign Chiarot Quote
