GDT: Game 65: Red Wings vs sabres 7:30 pm et 3/12/25

[norrisnick]

Ed isn't just pretty good offensively. He leads the league in defenseman scoring for D that don't play on the PP.

Ed has 24 non-PP points. Mo and Gustafsson combined have 26...

 

[lilidk]

I it's hard to be successful when you have only 2 defansman you could trust and both not in their prime yet.

 

[Henkka]

Sabres Roster:

Peterka - Norris - Thompson
Zucker - McLeod - Tuch
Benson - Krebs - Quinn
Malenstyn - Greenway - Lafferty

Samuelsson - Dahlin
Byram - Bryson
Power - Clifton

Luukkonen

It's interesting how those centers are
1. Former Senators 2nd line center
2. Former Oilers 4th line winger
3. Veleno-level youngish Center
4. 4th line winger

Can't put it any worse? Are they tanking already?

 

[13to40]

A 4-0 win would do wonders for this team at this point in the season.

 

[Henkka]

Red Wings from morning skate:

Söderblom - Larkin - Raymond
DeBrincat - Kasper - Kane
Tarasenko - Compher - Smith
Berggren - Rasmussen - Motte

Chiarot - Seider
Edvinsson - Johansson
Gustafsson - Holl

Mrazek

So Berggren in for Shine and Mrazek in net.

 

[FMichael]

My family and I will be in attendance for the game…Maybe we’ll bring them some luck

 

[Steve91]

Mrazek took Mazur's number 43? What?

 

[The Flying Octopus]

Friendly reminder that:

Montreal lost 8 of 9 in early February.
Columbus lost 4 straight in February and 8 of 9 in December.
Ottawa lost 5 straight in February.

Losing is part of the NHL in an 82 game season, especially when you are a playoff bubble team.

Gee, thanks for that ,as going on losing streaks of that magnitude, bode well for when it matters. What a shit argument to be completely honest. Like what are we doing here if this is the mentality?

It’s okay guys, lose 4-7 games in a row, everything will be okay… NOOOO just NO!

If these teams as mentioned DONT go into tailspins, then it’s a different topic. If you are a playoff team, you don’t lose 5/6-7 games in a row, than try to justify it as it being okay. It’s a 82 game schedule.

Do you see Florida racking off 7 losses in a row ? NOPE


What a mentality this poster has. See what losing consistently does to the brain people?!? It ruins you & you resort to accepting losses.

 

[JoesuffP]

This is our turning point. We’ve shown we can run off wins against the best in the league like we belong there. Play like your pissed off

I think all he was saying is that losing streaks happen and for people not to lose their minds, doesn’t seem like that worked though….

"Detroit is comfortably ahead of Buffalo in the standings, but having a buffalo with nothing to lose behind you is never a safe situation. The wild card race in the East is still crowded and the Wings are not that far out, points-wise, so even riding a 6 game Schnide, the team can still advance with a win tonight. But as always, they need to watch their rear-ends and make sure they don't get tossed out of the LCA by the Sabres like Bugs Bunny got tossed out of his arena by an angry Brahman bull."

Losing their minds ? Have you see their record the last two marches combined ? Maybe you are okay with mediocre, sorry your family instilled losing streaks into your brain as being okay. Nice dig tho, very creative. Yikes.

Grow a pair and man up and understand this isn’t acceptable.

Alright dude I’m a doomer around here too recently but this seems a bit too personal attack-flavoured. Relax. It’s just a game.

Florida has a 4-game losing streak this year
Tampa has 2 4-game losing streaks this year
Carolina has lost 5 of 6
New Jersey has 3 4-game losing streaks

I didn’t bother checking any other teams. I’m not cherry picking. This is sports.

Games like this I don't even want to win for the standings. I just hate losing to the perennial losers in our division.

I hope they blow off some steam and score a snowman tonight.

I hope so they may need a snowman since Mrazek's in.

I haven’t seen an octopus in weeks

 

[Austrianwing]

Great... HBO Max doing it's buffering thing tonight.

How would you know?

 

[The Flying Octopus]

Glad to know you are one of many fans on here that accepts mediocrity. You couldn’t have pointed yourself out anymore. Thanks for that

And Florida , TB, Carolina are all superior to Detroit and can afford losing steaks. The 18 year olds on here need a history lesson and some manners. Another poop argument. Sending this down the drain, but I had to respond to such a stupid response. Woof.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Did TNT do the usual dunk on Detroit segment.

 

[norrisnick]

Not playing Berggren when we've been struggling to score and he's scored for us in this run of shit is not a serious decision.

 

[GMR]

Not these freaking uniforms again.

 

[dalem177]

Let's go, Petr!
