lordstanley Posted February 2 Posted February 2 Wings went 6-4-5 in January for 17 points in 15 games. Just 4 games this month because of the Olympic break. All are on the road: Quote
GalagaGuy Posted February 3 Posted February 3 Mickey just couldn't stay away from work for a bit. Dude is at Osgood's house doing the pregame in a neck brace. Quote
lordstanley Posted February 3 Author Posted February 3 Better game tonight so far. 1-0 Wings after 1 on Kasper’s opening minute goal. Quote
lordstanley Posted February 3 Author Posted February 3 1-0 after 2 for the Wings. Huge 3rd period coming up, the Wings could really use at least a point. Quote
lordstanley Posted February 3 Author Posted February 3 (edited) Biggest Wings win of the year! 2-0 blanking of the NHL’s #1 team. Edited February 3 by lordstanley Quote
gehringer_2 Posted February 3 Posted February 3 HaHa- they get the 2 least likely points of the 10 available in the 5 games before the break. Quote

Yep, 1-2-1 now in the midst of this key post-Edvinsson pre-Olympics stretch. Win Wednesday and they will have weathered a storm. Felt like a playoff atmosphere tonight. Quote

Mr.TaterSalad Posted February 3 Posted February 3 That's the biggest win all year. If they lost that game it felt like they were headed right into yet another late season collapse. Quote
Shinzaki Posted February 3 Posted February 3 ASP looked good last night..as did Ras and Elmer. Played with a lot of jam..Avs had a very difficult time in the neutral zone If I could get two guys off bad teams it would be Kevin Bahl from Calgary and Thomas from the Blues. Although Gavrikov and Panarin from the Rangers would be cool too Quote

slothfacekilla Posted February 3 Posted February 3 (edited) I saw some rumor that Panarin was interested in Detroit for some reason? Seemed odd but who knows. I think Garikov wants to stay in New York, and I'm sure Panarin would want to if the Rangers were interested in re-signing him. edit: New York guy doesn't seem to think the Wings are in it so it was probably nothing Edited February 3 by slothfacekilla Quote
slothfacekilla Posted February 3 Posted February 3 Marco Kasper + Rasmussen + first round pick 😂 1 Quote
1984Echoes Posted February 3 Posted February 3 8 minutes ago, slothfacekilla said: Marco Kasper + Rasmussen + first round pick 😂 Kasper's not the guy I would move for Thomas. Thomas is a RH 1A or 1B (behind Larkin if that's how it works on the Wings...) Center. That makes Danielson expendable (IMO), not Kasper. So it has to start with Nate (IMO), and then I'd try to add a smaller skill guy in the minors, plus the 1st... My guess is they would have zero interest in Ras. maybe MBN they would demand...? Quote

slothfacekilla Posted February 3 Posted February 3 My hypothetical was a complete joke, I figured Rasmussen's inclusion would make it too obvious! I'd rather keep Danielson over Kasper but I'm sure the Blues would feel the opposite. I'd give up a lot for Thomas though, 26 years old with 5 more years on his deal after this season. Quote

In the summer of 2018 we should have offered five 1st rounders for Mitch Marner or Auston Matthews. Svechnikov, Cholowski, Rasmussen, Zadina and Veleno. 1 Quote
lordstanley Posted February 5 Author Posted February 5 WIngs come out in the 1st period as if the vacation has already started. 2-0 Mammoth after 1. Quote
lordstanley Posted February 5 Author Posted February 5 Wings showed some signs of life in the 2nd but still down 2 headed to the 3rd. I'd like them to be more than 7 points up on 9th place at the break. Quote
lordstanley Posted February 5 Author Posted February 5 So much for the good vibes after the win over the Avs. 4-1 stinker in Utah. Quote
buddha Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Need to make some moves to avoid the usual post all star/olympic/4 nation collapse. Quote
