GDT: Game 54: Red Wings at kraken 10:00 pm et 2/4/25

[Coach Reggie Dunlop]

Talbot was the only reason that game was close, but I guess it evens out because he’s stole us games before.

 

[dalem177]

Except that it was

Perhaps the real sweep was the FOUR EFFING GAMES THEY WON, INCLUDING A COUPLE TOUGH ONES along the way.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Between the officiating and bounces and some soft goals it felt like they were destined to lose tonight but they figured out a way to pull out the win.

Man this has been a ridiculously fun turnaround to witness.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Also Holl only played 13 minutes tonight but I didn't notice him for the most part, which is a huge improvement.

It's abit sad that this is the bar we set for a defenseman being paid 3.4M. But yeah, i agree. He had a invisible night, which is the best we can hope for.

 

[Coach Reggie Dunlop]

We have some youngsters playing well but Detroit has the 11th oldest roster

All the impact players are young guys tho lol. Our age is made to look worse by guys like holl chiarot and talbot.

 

[jkutswings]

Still a lot of hockey left this season. But if the ToddFather Red Wings can get to third in the division, the Leafs want absolutely no part of that first round matchup.

 

[Nut Upstrom]

Love that physical play by Kasper to win the battle and buy some time

Yes, cannot say Marco was just a passenger on that goal. It happened because of his hard work.
(Ive just finished watching the game here at work)

 

[Nut Upstrom]

ok that was Raymond

Hello, of course it was Raymond. There was pew pew ray gun posted three or four doors up

The last time I thought this he went right back to Holl'n it up again.

 

[Oddbob]

Talbot almost pooped this one away.

Don't care for Kaser as pbp guy. He has a dull radio voice. Why was he doing pbp anyhow. Dekeyser also wasn't great.

I see this as MANNN he played 13 minutes. We need to get it down to 0. I am actually a little miffed that Yzerman hasn't made any move, even a Walman esque find a diamond type manoeuvre. There has to be lower end options that are out there that don't sacrifice the rebuild, but get Holl the heck out of the lineup. Even in his 13 minutes he made 3 or 4 just dumb plays and turned his shifts into chaos when they should have been simple plays.

I had D-Boss up first.

I thought they were both good on the road trip.

Mickey doesn't go on long road trips and Kenny is sick/injured.

I don't think either were bad, but I sort of agree on Kaser's voice. His calls aren't bad but the voice just doesn't really do it for me. DD I think could develop into a pretty decent color guy, but he needs to loosen up a bit. He has pretty good insights, but hasn't developed his voice yet. We are just incredibly spoiled because Mick and Ken are two of the best in the biz.

I keep hearing this explanation... but what happened to Ozzy? Just being replaced as the #2 color guy?

I thought the best interchange between the two of them was after DDK kinda messed up his ad copy read and ended with a "wow" at himself. The Kaser said "Wow, yeah, the phones are lighting up after that read!" and they both laughed it up a bit.

That was the relaxed byplay we're spoiled with.

Awful awful awful. Feels like listening to a baseball game with those two. Nothing has made me want to fall asleep faster on these late night games than their droning voices.

 

[burbankmarc]

I think DDK shows great promise. He's not awkward just reserved. Remember how bad Ozzy was at first? I think in about a year DDK will loosen up and be gret.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Now just don't like, announce a new trash patch or something. Also don't lose 7 straight.
