Boarding ..?

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Boarding ..?

It is pretty impressive to board someone without actually checking them

[NervousPerson]

Playing Kucherov on the PP up 5-1 with 40 seconds left. Hmmm

At least the Leafs are up 6-3 on the Habs with 4:50 to play

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

What makes losing to Tampa more annoying is having to see Blashill's stupid face on the bench.

 

[Oddbob]

Well, glad I didn't watch that after seeing the score.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Oh great Dallas was 1-3 this week... Gonna have to dodge some Benn crosschecks as well.

Ras could redeem much if he drilled that guy through the boards.

 

[KJoe88]

Damn 0-3 tonight.

f***ing f***.

Goodnight boys and girls

 

[PelagicJoe]

Well, I'm glad I didn't watch this shit.

 

[SoupGuru]

Well, I'm glad I didn't watch this shit.

Which shit are you talking about, specifically?

 

[Dotter]

Terrible night in Detroit tonight.

 

[dalem177]

Nice to hear a coach not talking about "good looks" post-loss.

 

[lilidk]

We are planning against very good team . We can't match skills and great goaltender and defense

He's 25. Kind of think he is who he is at this point.

But he was much better last season

Playing Kucherov on the PP up 5-1 with 40 seconds left. Hmmm

I didn't care, just turned tv off

 

[OneMoreTry]

Ras could redeem much if he drilled that guy through the boards.

He'll probably injure himself when trying to..

 

[Snuggs]

Damn 0-3 tonight.

f***ing f***.

Goodnight boys and girls

It was extremely hard to be a good host last night after 11. lol. Pretty much everyone was gone though around midnight so, it's ok. The mood... not good, one of the "flatter" get togethers I've ever had, lol.

My best friend and my girlfriend's dad needed about 20 mins after the Lions loss to even speak. lol.

 

[JoesuffP]

This was tough. Wings had more chances overall but the lapses were big and to credit Lightning they made no mistake given those opportunities. Forgetting how to play for 10 minutes to start the 2nd cannot happen if you are a serious team

 

[lilidk]

Team with more skills won. Red Wings tried hard and I believe Yzerman needs to help it and buy, probably now. Red wings has plenty prospects and mid first 2025 probably nothing great .

I wonder if Yzerman thinks about maybe if he added something last deadline if it would've gotten us that extra point to make the playoffs.

This is all purely speculation on my part trying to figure out the Walman situation but I sort of wondered if his injury or mishandling of his rehab or whatever happened was a key factor in them getting rid of him. Because he went from "injured" to "unavailable" during a crucial stretch at the end of the season.

If the Wings have Walman for some of those games it significantly improves their chances of picking up an extra point and making the playoffs.
