GDT: Game 43: Red Wings vs sharks 7:00 pm et 1/14/25

[Scottgaf1]

Most of the goals were not on Husso. Our giveaways and defensive coverage down low was terrible

 

[Oddbob]

Husso and Holl pooped this one away.

Can we end the Husso experiment already? Any remotely tough shot is in the net.

Todd being so open and frank about how terrible Holl was, it's such a breath of fresh air. Hold these guys accountable

What did he say?

NHL goalies should be able to stop most of what went in tonight. That first goal, Holl first of 2 bonehead bad plays but Husso lets in yet another lame far shot with no traffic. NHL goalies are expected to come up with saves that aren't always easy and Husso never stops those. Even the Granlund mini break is stoppable by many NHL goalies. Husso has about the worst mid glove and blocker sides I can recall from an NHL goalie.

Bad out of town scoreboard today.

Every time I see Husso I think, yep that's his last game as a Wing and within days or weeks he's back due to injury. I didn't even bother watching tonight - he needs to just be cut and be done with him.

Basically ... Todd said he (Holl) had a terrible night . He won't lie, but he will tell him the same thing at practice tomorrow. Justin would tell you himself he had a bad game. He's better than that, we know that.

7:00 he talks about Husso
8:30 he talks about Holl

The Red Wings were growing too powerful, so god sent them Ville Husso to teach them humility.

I think tonight was his last game in the Wing wheel. I know everything wasn't his fault tonight, but Cossa would of done a better job for sure.

The Red Wings and losing to the Sharks. Name a more iconic duo.

They went together like lamb and tuna fish.

Maybe you like spaghetti and meatball? You more comfortable with that analogy?

 

[aar000n]

It's hard to blame Husso not playing very often has to be annoying. At the same time playing like shit earns you shit.

Question:

Does "East West Hockey" imply a lot of cross-ice passes that are easy to intercept? Does "North South Hockey" in turn imply a lot of direct attacks down the slot with not enough maneuvering?

 

[Realgud]

Husso in net? Will need to score at least 6 goals.

Yep

 

[SoupGuru]

We were due for a reality check.

Looks like Tarasenko could get going at the same time Cat cools off.

Larkin had a poor game as well. It was kind of comical watching him skate in circles on their 3rd goal (I think), never finding the right guy to cover.

 

[norrisnick]

Yep

Manifest some good stuff next time...

Seriously. If all T-Mac really accomplishes is "unlocking" the stats that the pro scouts saw, then this will be a successful season IMO. A few changes in the off season (which contracts fall off?) and a trade or two, and they should be ready to rawk hard next season.

Yes, considering this IS America. I mean if you don't like spaghetti and meatballs why don't you just get the hell out?

Bit of both. Husso should have had the first one and ideally at least one of the others.
Eh, it was a predictable letdown game. Might not even be the worst thing. Let the team reset mentally before going on the road.

 

[Ulysses31]

its not

was rootin for him but aint workin. team always comes out flat when he starts too.

 

[RRhoads]

We didn't lose because of Husso, but he needs to make a save now and then on high percentage chances.

It was a poor effort all around, especially Holl. He looked like he was playing on a bad connection and was lagging.
