GDT: Game 67 Red Wings vs knights 1:00 pm et 3/16/25

Mrazek and Smith for Veleno is a lowkey fleece by Yzerman...... yeah that's what I said.

Shutout!

 

[Coach Reggie Dunlop]

Kasper is going to have a little over 30 points his first year as a 20 year old. I’d say that’s a pretty solid year considering how he’s been up and down the lineup and asked to play different positions. I don’t really get why a couple posters aren’t thrilled with him.

 

[SantosHalper]

Wooooo!! Don't stop believing, DOMINANT effort.

Alright, who had Mrazek shutout on their card?

Wrong game but i called it!

 

[HoweFan]

A win in a game we weren’t supposed to win. We may need about 5-6 more of those. Oh well ya gotta believe

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Scored cheap last minute tickets! Only time the boys have lost in the past year while I'm in attendance was this seasons home opener, so I like our odds!

Ok you need to go to the rest of the games, including road games. You may have to quit your job but this is much more important.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

4 out of the last 6 points. Negative streak is done, time for the positive one.

Kasper only had 35 points in the AHL, hes's a bum. Hope he can be better than a middle 6 guy.....

AHL is a crabs in the bucket league IMO. Rather than a measuring stick to future NHL success.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Payback game with the Caps. They made the playoffs last year on empty goal. They stole the last one against us. Grab your balls and go down there and punk them finally.

- 'the iq line' ran by philosopher kane makes redwing hockey fun again
- johansson is looking to become a dman that can play an all 3 pairs and not be lost because of mix of high iq and athletic skating which allows him to get into all the right places on both sides of puck

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Glad Mrazek is playing well. He's got to be happy to play on a team at least hoping for the playoffs versus getting shelled every night in Chicago.

People were quoting his GAA when we got him like dude he is on f***ing Chicago! Lol

 

[acetehubernoob]

Per NST, 5v5 expected goals with Justin Holl on the ice were 2.17 - 0.23 in favor of Detroit. Actual goals were 2-0. Maybe Holl's best game as a Red Wing.

didnt realize he was in the lineup. so yeah, his best game XD

 

[wingerdinger]

Was definitely a schedule win. But it's still good for the boys to go out and deliver.

Love Kasper hope he finishes strong and nice to see Johansson with a sweet goal. Expect to see more offensive production out a guy like that.

Mrazek is a very hot and cold goalie, but it'd be awesome if he stayed hot for a few more weeks

This, AND I made the jumbotron chugging a beer

I don’t really get why a couple posters aren’t thrilled with him.

Because people are dumb. Kasper has been and is an integral part of this teams future and we’re lucky to have him.

It’s the same people who said his skating wasn’t great or that he didn’t have skill… I cannot even imagine how you could see him do anything and draw those conclusions other than to rely on crap premature draft rankings and half takes and then stat sheet watch only to subjectively support an inaccurate take in their own head

The hero we need.

Noted bust Marco Buster is going to have a little over 30 points his first year as a 20 year old. I’d say that’s a pretty solid year considering how much of a bust he is. I don’t really get why a couple posters are thrilled with him despite him being a busy.

Fixed your post.

Great game, need to play like that the rest of the way

I can't disagree more.
This was a lucky and scheduled win. They played their 3rd game in 4 nights. We didn't play well at all. We can't win many games playing like this.
Before we scored our 1st we had 2 PPs and 3 odd man rushes and no goals. That's brutal.
I have complained about our odd man rushes for a long time. Do you or anyone else remember when we scored an odd man rush goal? This is on Mclellan. He had to fix this.
He also scratched Berggren who is our best 2nd PP player. He did not get an assist on the 1st goal, but it was definitely Berggren who created that goal.
Mrazek has been our best player last 2 games. The team has to play better. He is not a goalie who can carry them for 10-20 games.

 

[14ari13]

I have to congratulate Johansson on scoring a beauty, real goal scorers goal. Maybe the prettiest goal of the season.

 

[odin1981]

Petr the Gr8!!!

He’s still not a good goalie. He has games like this in him and then he’ll give up 5 to the Caps. It’s still not a good move even if it did work out the day against a tired Knights team

Mrazek was flawless last 2 games. Obviously giving up 3 goals in 2 games vs 2 good teams is marvellous. But regardless how he plays, the team has to pick up its game. They will finish under .500 rest of the season if they don't put it together. Mclellan has to do a better job.
The positive is that Raymond finally scored after 10 scoreless games and we got secondary scoring to 2 crucial goals from Johansson and Gustafsson.
Holl has been invisible last 10-20 games which is good for a defenceman.

 

[Bob Probert Owns You]

Big win. Hopefully this is the start of a long streak!

 

[Christien]

Awesome win! That goal by Johansson was a beauty

 

[1878rgw]

Looks like the ref has a smiley after the goal

 

[MarioBalotelli]

Competitiveness was much higher today. Hopefully the usual leadership core on this team don't allow that mentality to slip.
