GDT: Game 69: Red Wings vs bjs 7:00 pm et 3/19/24 (ESPN+, BSD)

To follow off your shocked pikachu face... I had to go back to figure out how in the world he got credit for a minus. Ed is circled in red. Sprong is circled in blue. Can't quite tell from this shot on nhl.com but I'm not convinced both of Ed's skates are on the ice before the puck goes in. But I do know that neither of Sprong's feet are off the ice when it goes in.

Ah, that sucks lol. At least we know why he got that -1 now. Good work.

The lack of offensive creativity is frustrating to watch. It's the same every shift. Dump it, chase it, pass along the boards and hope for the best.

I thought that tonight: "They're not talented enough to skill their way into the zone, but on the gripping hand, they're not strong enough to battle the puck off the boards. Darn."

Barring a miracle, I don’t know how Lalonde makes it out of this season alive.

You can’t keep watching this effort over and over and over again and just keep saying “eh, the guys are trying hard” in every interview

Hold players accountable for F sakes.

Sadly I think he is the new tank commander. I think he will finish his contract.

So I missed a couple of weeks traveling, how's everything going? Have we locked down that first wildcard spot?

(looks around, sees FabricDetails curled into the fetal position sobbing; norrisnick quietly sharpening a bayonet with a thousand-yard stare; lilidk rocking in the corner quietly reciting death metal lyrics; and...shit guys, somebody roll dalem177 over, if he passes out that that he's going to asphyxiate on his own vomit oh wow there it goes, get all of the poison out big guy yikes.)

OK, I'm going to show myself out, see you guys around draft time I think.

Have not washed this game but six shots on the stat sheet won't cut it. Can't come out flat in a period if the playoffs is your goal

Yeah, but what the H E double hockey sticks else are you going to do when almost nobody on the team seems to be able to make a competent pass?
Sigh.

He was injured in December. So was Compher

Not all of December. They were 1-3 without him and not much better with him, even though he produced. his logs:

 

[Winged Wheel Willy]

I know whatcha thinkin, punk. Did they lose 7 straight or only 6? Well, in all the shame I kinda lost track myself. But being this the Columbus Blue Jackets, an injured lottery team, that is blowing our playoff chances clean off, you gotta ask yourself one question...

Two power plays, 3 breakaways, and getting outworked again.

 

[DatsDeking]

This is the biggest period for the Wings tonight because it determines whether I keep watching

Wings' game does need a wash. It's stanky

 

[WingFanSD]

Sigh.

even the guys who can make a pass cant do it right now. and if they do the guy on the receiving doesnt knw what to do with it. and bench veleno and bring up kasper. he is just useless everywhere on the ice.

"I gots ta know!"

 

[norrisnick]

See... that's why +/- is so meaningless. Only thing Trev had to say about Ed was 7 shifts, and a dash 1. Side note... when the f*** did it become dash instead of minus?

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

What is Husso's injury? That guy has been gone like 44 months now.

That kind of play where a player steps on or off the ice happens every now and then, but it evens out in the long term. Your logic is once again flawed.

Now +/- doesn't account for player usage or QoC, and that's a bigger issue.

 

[dalem177]

Uh. Another PP.

 

[Sadekuuro]

Woot, game management penalty

 

[RedHawkDown]

Playoffs is done.

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

Kane looks for Debrincat
Debrincat looks for Kane

There needs to be a better PP strategy.

Those two statements back to back is hilarious.
