GDT: Game 16: Red Wings at ducks 10:00 pm et 11/15/24

[Pavels Dog]

The collapse after Ed went out was revealing.

First loss of the season that felt truly inexcusable to me.

 

[Lampedampe]

They can't play with a lead... They get outshot every night... They're never ready to play on puck drop... They can't kill penalties

Bad coach is bad.

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

I still can’t get over Yzerman’s “lol what are you talking about” reaction during his season ending presser on Lalonde’s job security.

It’s time for him to admit that Lalonde was a terrible mistake.

 

[Finnen]

Wow, Lyon allowed 2-3 softish goals. Why was he in net when we are desperate to get points?

I kind of think that with this loss our hope to make playoffs is over.
Should Yzerman tank it now?

Next game Talbot's.

Next game the coach Lalonde testing Rasmussen on Larkin's locus.

 

[Air Budd Dwyer]

It's a shame too because our power play is really good 5th best clicking at 29.8%!!!!!!! PK sucks horescock though. Wtf?

Why are you complimenting the PK?!

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Inverse optimism. I like it.

Well…we saw how Detroit could turn a 3-1 lead into a 6-4 loss against the worst team in the league…

We’ve played 16 games, come on man

The wings have played like the better team in maybe 3 of those games.

 

[Snuggs]

Most of you deserve this to be honest.

Just have some patience.

 

[Winger98]

So, I went to bed at the right time is what everyone is telling me

Aren’t you the user who posts hairbrained trades to acquire has beens or never wases by emptying our cupboard daily?

Lol. No. We're in year 6 of the Yzerplan, and they haven't made the playoffs since 2016. The time for patience is over. He needs to be on the hot seat if Detroit isn't firmly in the playoffs by the beginning of April.

I don't care about "just wait another 2-3 years". I operate in the here and now.

Next game Talbot's.

Next game the coach Lalonde testing Rasmussen on Larkin's locus.

Next game is a guaranteed/scheduled loss. With today's loss it is 2 losses when we badly need points. And if Edvidsson is out, it is going to be ugly.

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

Did we win?

What's that got to do with anything I posted exactly? Me being unhappy with the team and posting trades(dumb or not) means I deserve to watch a bad team? TBH with you... the trade ideas are about to go the other way and I'll be posting TDL seller moves, so in the future you will be pumped for the rebuild assets.

Difference in people that have been critical and want change vs people that have supported these moves and are cool with the status quo.

I'm glad you keep receipts though, keep people accountable. I'm sure you 27k posts are all brilliant.

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

I didn't see what happened to Edvinsson. Day to day? Long term? What happened to him?

 

[Oddbob]

Lyon pooped this one away.

Though we yet again lift off the gas with the 3-1 lead. If it is the team doing it and not the coach, then he needs to get them to stop it, and if it is the coach telling them to play that way he needs to go. We do this every time we have a lead, put up some chances get a lead, playing pretty good and then we just stop making plays other than trying to get the puck out of our zone. It doesn't even work either which makes doing this incredible dumb as we get outshot/out chanced and almost always let the lead get away. If it at least worked there might be merit to it even if I hate that style, but it doesn't work.

We’ve played 16 games, come on man

Have you seen how we play?

I agree, he’s had enough time to get this thing at least in the right direction but when your d-core is 2 young, 1 fairly elite and another rising star then 5 just god awful d-men there’s a big big problem. He’s had 6 god damn years to make this D-core solid and it’s horrific. Time for him to be on the hot seat. I love yzerman the player and always will, but his GM’ing in Detroit has been suspect to say the least

 

[OneMoreTry]

Shotblock on the knee. Tried a single shift in the 3rd, didn’t come back after that.

Could mean pretty much anything, including playing today, if the pain is gone and not much swelling. Just need to wait for news.

 

[GarlicbreadTB]

Went to bed when the 2nd period ended. Welp.

I was just confused if you changed your mindset (just be patient) or were trolling

I'm just saying, we haven't even played a quarter of the games... if we are still like this at the midway point, sure.
