Kindl is +4 tonight, Kronwall is -2. Just to be the first to notice.
I want Kindl out there as Datsyuk's D.
Kindl gets Datsyuk the puck.

Datsyuk likes playing with Abdelkader.
He knows he is going to go to the front of the net so he tries to bank in goals off of different parts of his body. It's a challenge for him.
That's my interpretation of why Datsyuk would like to play with Abdelkader.

some critical fans have said he could be an elite player if he always played hard, but i don't think he has the hockey sense for that. he could be a star, though.Oh what Franzen could be if he had a little battle to his game.
hrudey was right. zetterberg has just been in a slump, and has probably lost some confidence.Kelly Hrudey explains that Z has high hockey IQ and knows where everyone should be on the ice at all times/ thinks the game like a coach would, just minutes after Z throws an awful no-look pass backwards into the slot to no one, despite having time and space to make a move towards the net.
i would vote bergeron again. his numbers are great, and whenever i have watched boston, he has been outstanding.Datsyuk ISN'T frontrunner for Selke?
Classless to ask strip away the c when we all were praising him not too long ago. He's on a slump but Z will eventually work through so show some ****ing respect.
me tooGod I hate that "Euro-twin" bull crap
Late to the party, but is anyone watching the CBC feed? It's hilarious. I think the play-by-play team is getting a commission per the number of Datsyuk mentions.
It must be infuriating for Vancouver fans.
I can imagine. I mean, Pavel is having a pretty good game to be fair. Still I don't know if would be handling it gracefully if every fifth word was Sedin even if they were lighting it up. But I'm not always very mature.
agree. i hate how commentators constantly slobber over star players.These commentators really need to stop. They're making me sick having to hear them talk about Datsyuk every 5 seconds. As if they have no idea what else to talk about.
he's yzerman's true and rightful heir.Daniel Cleary is the lifeblood on this team. Without him, we'd be in last place
consistent "real good" playHe has 2 assists, what exactly do you want from him?
luongo should be in HHOF, imo, but he is too hot and cold.I was JUST going to say Luongo is like a glorified Osgood. Then CBC compares him to Osgood.
agreeSmith really seems to be slowly figuring out when and where to make the offensive plays and when not to.
it's amazing that cleary scored. he has wasted so many potential chances on the rush by taking those BS long wrist shots.Cleary, nice play nice shot
Was saying before the game that one of the only ways we win is if LOLongo shows up.
Ding dong. Look who showed up the party?
And I'm sure Babs and Cleary will have a romantic dinner after the game, too. Jesus christ.
Babs has a boner right now.
their PP really misses healthy kesler. they wasted a lot of time being indecisive.Oh my god. Poor Vancouver. I felt like I was walking the Wings on that 5 on 3.
I seem to remember Flip being a ghost when we needed him last year.

Smith's been getting some chances, just not burying them. Like that move he pulled on the blue line to get into the slot for a nice shot. He's very clearly got a huge offensive upside.he has not shown much offensively, but his D is quite a bit better than it was early this season or last season.

I may be wrong here, but Datsyuk liked playing with Holmstrom; perhaps he thinks that, with some time together and tutelage Abdelkader could do the things that Pavel liked about Homer. That is my best guess on why Dats would like having Abs as his winger.
Well, Vancouver seems to be a nice matchup for the Wings. Let's hope for them in playoffs.
I got a feeling Vancouver ain't making the playoffs
I watch an awful lot of hockey...and nobody in the league is like Datsyuk was tonight.
Crosby can match it in the offensive zone (though Crosby plays more like a Zetterberg deluxe than a Datsyuk).
Datsyuk owned this game nearly every time he stepped on the ice. Commentators wouldn't stop talking about it because it was remarkable.
Datsyuk has to bank pucks off Gater to make any use of him.
in '11 and '12, games between these 2 teams were of high quality and very close, (some of the best games of the whole season for any teams) but that has not happened this season, which is very fortunate for us.Well, Vancouver seems to be a nice matchup for the Wings. Let's hope for them in playoffs.

Apparently (I must have missed this moment) Franzen was actually helping Booth back to the bench after he got injured out there? Not sure of the details but just wanted to point it out for how classy that was. Good game guys and full credit to your team for the win.
I would like to know too.CBC said Babcock was taking heat for playing Abdelkader with Datsyuk...
HEAT FROM WHO??
Nucks 3rd, Wings 6th and there we go.Well, Vancouver seems to be a nice matchup for the Wings. Let's hope for them in playoffs.
