GDT: Game 82: Red Wings at habs 7:00 pm et 4/16/24 (BSD, ESPN+)

The team shit away an 8 point deep point cushion. Detroit didn’t deserve the playoffs and not leading in 130 minutes of play against the worst team in the division isn’t how you play when the playoffs are on the line.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

When we got a point it was over for Philly yet they pulled their f***ing goalie anyway. What a f***

What a dumb ass tie breaking system..

In my best Skip Bayless voice: "DYLAN LARKIN IS NOT EVEN A TOP 20 CENTER IN THE LEAGUE. HE'S TRASH!"

That moron doesn’t know who McDavid is.

 

[schuelma24]

Fun season, horrible ending, but Raymond turning supernova and Ed establishing himself is huge for the future.

Now get a decent goalie, another D, and please play a few kids and really get going.

 

[JoesuffP]

We were never in control of any of these games that we do or die yet we won them all and did just enough to get screwed in the last 3 minutes of the season

 

[Shaman464]

f***in nobody. They can all go die. I hope 8 separate meteors take out the 8 stadiums in which the 16 teams are playing.

Wow. So you want a hundred thousand fans to die because Detroit was trash the last 4 months?

 

[letsgowings9999]

In the timeline of events it was irrelevant. Flyers were already eliminated at that point so didn't have to pull the goalie.

Saying if they didnt have to take out the goalie and needed a wings loss to get in maybe they beat caps in o.t . Oh well

 

[nbwingsfan]

Back to my original rant… time to trim a concerning amount of fat from both this team and my belly.

At least I’ll get a head start on camping season, maybe even some multi day hiking. Need a break from this team for a good while so I doubt I’ll be around much.

Hope you stick around on the team next year @Lazlo Hollyfeld (James Reimer)

for all they know Toronto might disallow one of our goals minutes after we score it

it's not out of the question -- Toronto despises the Red Wings and doesn't even try to hide it at this point

 

[PavelDatsyuk13DET]

It was a really good year overall, I'm proud of this team. Especially the last 3 games. This was the most exciting team we've had since at least 2013.

 

[Sentinel]

Two epic comeback wins to end the season. Missing playoffs in such fashion stinks but they definitely improved since last year and the year before.

I can't believe they even had to come back against Montreal, just like I could not believe we lost to Arizona and SJ, but that's our team, L&Ds!

We'll make it next season.

 

[saska sault]

I can't find a crying face so I'll just laugh.

What a dumb ass tie breaking system..

huh?

the Flyers pulling their Goalie had nothing to do with tiebreakers it was all about point totals

 

[Puck Tiss]

No, the Detroit game had already been determined to be going to OT before Torts pulled the goalie. I had both games up here.

Boohoo. I doubt Tortorella knew the score at the time. Red wings collapsed 100%. All blame is on them

 

[nbwingsfan]

Just can't be mad at this team, the last three games, they gave it all, battled their assessment off and never gave up.

Just a bad circumstance out of their hands cost them. Let this motivate you guys for next season.

Think I need to get away from hockey for a while.

I think 7 loses in a row near the end of the season also cost them but sure that to.

 

[theYman]

Well the Shittsburgh Shitbirds don't get in either and can't pass us now.

It's the little things, right?

[Shaman464]

Now to get on with my tradition of the last 30 years: rooting for US dominance in Cup victories.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

People need to take a chill pill. The Wings weren't going to win a Cup, the Wings were almost certainly not even going to win more than a game or two in the playoffs. The only long-term effect of it is that in the end the Wings will get a slightly better draft pick out of this, which isn't much but oh well.

In truth, if the Wings were actually a good team they would have easily made the playoffs and wouldn't need last second heroics over already eliminated opponents to even have a chance.

 

[RRhoads]

Can't say I haven't been entertained this season. Was a fun ride. Not going to dwell on it. I wasn't expecting a Cup. You could say that they got some playoff experience out of this with how the last few games were.

I'm just going to look forward to next season. Hopefully get some news on who's resigned now.

 

[GMR]

That Perron goal meaning nothing is just the Gods being dicks.

 

[FabricDetails]

This season has had so many moments worthy to the extent of a Top 20 highlights video at least. Such a bummer.

 

[WFIAA]

Look, Raymond last night and Perron tonight , those were epic moments I’ll never forget.

Interesting…. Considering they are meaningless and Z

Look, Raymond last night and Perron tonight , those were epic moments I’ll never forget.

Ojay, guess it’s good for you, not me, regular season moments are pretty forgettable, especially for players that won’t be here next year.
