Just like last year, this Wings team does nothing to wear on the other team as the game goes on. They don't have enough speed to pressure the other team and they're not big or mean enough to physically wear the opponent down. This was a physically easy game for the Blues to play. Last year the Preds were healthier after finishing off the Wings in 5 games then they were going into that series.
Until the Clearys, Emmertons, Millers are swapped out for players that are faster, bigger and meaner this team has no chance to compete in a playoff series. The offensive talent is there but there needs to be a lot more abrasivness to wear the other team and open things up as the game goes on.
i'd say what the Wings really need is more depth
Tatar in and a healthy Helm would work wonders(and a healthy Bertuzzi but who knows if he'll ever be back)
