GDT: GAME 25 | Red Wings vs Senators | In Pizza We Trust | Thu Dec 5 2024, 7PM | TSN5, RDSI

[Micklebot]

I knew we weren't going to score on the PP once Miller and Johnson made such a big deal about how horrid their PK is.

They also talked about how good our PP was, the dreaded double jinx.

We were also playing a goalie who had dreadful numbers this year, perhaps it was a triple jinx?

 

[Micklebot]

I’ll add to that their passing is not very crisp which makes them look really sloppy with possession

Yeah, I thought especially early on we weren't receiving the passes very clean.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Crazy we created a chance from actually passing the puck through the neutral zone

 

[Micklebot]

Who was it who said Tkachuk would be getting plenty more breakaway opportunities after that pass slide off his stick...

This game was surprisingly low event for a game we outshot them 32 to 20.

They didn't say this game

Two bad teams. Ottawa couldn't bury their chances and were just begging the Wings to steal it. Thank god for Norris because had they blown the game, I think a lot of fans would've left and not returned this season. For me, Claire Hanna was the best part of the night.

Winning games, especially winning games with big goals late, will absolutely change that. Winning changes everything, it doesn't really matter how useless the other team is.

If they string together a good December then there will be energy in the arena for January.

Yeah

At the end of the year they measure good teams by the W and L column


Winning solves everything

LFG

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

One regulation win in a row. Preds coming in lost 6 straight. Let the Sens not be the cure

It's a confidence builder in some ways but in other ways... it's Detroit and while our records are similar they play like our DJ Smith teams did. Outshot. Outchanced. Win some based on luck and powerplay. It's a game we should convincingly win if the team is playoff bound.

But this time we got some luck and a late goal with a hard shot by Norris. And maybe that can be a confidence builder.

There's been a lot of "f***, that went wrong" moments for this team so far and finally something went right with under a minute left in the 3rd period.

"They need to win!" Team wins. "They didn't win the right way!" Wow. Skunkypoo

I actually don't care that much about their record at the end of the season.

I care about the entertainment value of each game that I watch.

If you go back to last year, in the weeks just before Tarasenko was traded and Norris was injured, they were clearly out of the playoff hunt but JM had them playing really good hockey. And somewhere I posted that I was "Really enjoying watching Sens hockey."

Of course it's more enjoyable when they win. But playing good hockey -- by my definition -- and winning go hand in hand, so that's to be expected.

Just happy they won. We got lots of work to do, but like it's within reach for this team. If they can play a possession game with a consistent forecheck, we can make some noise.
We really gotta get some secondary scoring going though. Seems like it's either we score 8 or we score none

This might be the most fckd post I've read.

While I agree, the end goal of watching hockey is to be entertained, playoff hockey is way more entertaining, and I'd like to see some of that...

Winning a tight, low scoring, one goal game where we limit their chances is winning the right way.

You must have hated our run in 2017 with Guy Boucher's 1-3-1.

Idk man, the least you could do on Pizza line reunion day is put up 5 or 6 goals to score the fans a nostalgic moment of the days we'd get a free slice seemingly every home game

For me, Claire Hanna was the best part of the night.

She's terrible. Her questions with Heatley were cringeworthy.

 

[NyQuil]

She was trying to be excited and he's not really that kind of guy.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Yesterday was my 40th birthday and seeing the Pizza line again, being welcomed back by the new owner felt like closure on a whole time period. Like a warm hug of nostalgia sealing that era as a good memory overall.

 

[jbeck5]

But that post was replying to you asking if Boston Pizza has tacos, so...

Yeah, and then they responded that they have everything. Right from superstore frozen section.

So at that point I'm responding to "they have everything. Right from the superstore frozen section to you."

Conversations migrate.

Lol, sorry to confuse you guys with the Superstore comment. It's just a long running joke I've heard about BP many times. I appreciate it's reasonably priced (by today's standards) and kid friendly.

So long as they have deep fried tacos' I'm in.

I'm not confused lol I was just making a joke that even if BP's stuff is superstore food, most is deep fried and I don't have a deep fryer so it works for me haha.

So long as they have deep fried tacos' I'm in.

Have you ever tried pan fried tacos? The shiz.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Where there's a will there's a way. Have you even worked in a kitchen if you haven't tried deep frying foods that have no business in the fryer?

I guess they'd be soft shell?

No, but everything is better deep fried, so I'm sure it's worth it.
