GDT: Red Wings @ Senators | Round 2, Fight! Edition | Tue Feb 28th 2023, 7PM | TSN5, RDS

[2CHAINZ]

I'm going to get home from work sometime around the 2nd period. We better be winning by then.

Why don't you quit your job like a true fan ?

 

[SPF6ty9]

I'm more of a Virtua Fighter guy myself, but I approve of the Mortal Kombat theme nonetheless!

Right on. I remember playing the arcade version back in the day, probably trying to button mash my way to the top.

Street fighter was probably always my go to.

For the Red Wings, the day their playoff hopes were crushed, was the most important game of their season.

Ain't nobody eating @coladin

 

[Do Make Say Think]

90s fighting video games / movies had some badass theme songs. Mortal Kombat for sure. But gotta go with Guile's theme as the best of the bunch.

Tkachuk > coked up JCVD >>>>>> Red Wings

Was at the game last night and going again!

Hope the weather doesn't deter too many people, if they play anything like they did yesterday it will be a fun game to be at, should be lots of energy in the rink

Roads look pretty clear! Especially the highway.

I think tonight will have more energy than last night. I dunno, maybe it is how the 100s sound compared to the second bowl?

I really don’t know what the Wings have planned. I know that they have been physically challenged , and embarrassed. But who are they asking to pick up a role they don’t have? Rasmussen is hurt.

I can see the refs going after Ottawa in the 1st, control the emotion bs …and maybe Detroit puts Ottawa in PP trouble.

Or Ottawa plays really chill and let the game come to them.

Cancelled my Tuesday Nerd Night to stay in for the game

LFG

I'll bite. What is Nerd Night?

Magic the Gathering haha

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Magic the Gathering haha

We don't have that around here. Magic Mushrooms the Gathering though

 

[PatrickEaves]

I'm honestly kinda terrified we win, because it might prompt Dorion into trading an unprotected first + for Colton Parayko

 

[SlapJack]

The Lalime goal was much worse

And he did it twice for good measure

 

[WallyD]

The view from the Wings hotel rooms

An Austin Powers reference scene for sure!

No way.

It's obviously going to be 3 firsts for Parayko.

 

[Tragedy]

And he did it twice for good measure

I know we all like to blame Lalime for 04 but if the highest scoring regular season team didn't get shut out by a 39 year old goalie 3 times in the series that may have helped

Ekholm just went for a 1st (that will be relatively late), Reid Schaefer, a 4th and Tyson Barrie (salary).

I think he's better than Parayko right now, and on a better deal.

So the cost for Parayko shouldn't be more than a conditional 1st (a 2024 1st if the Sens make the playoffs this year or next, if not, becomes a 2024 2nd) + JBD/Thomson/Boucher.

That's the most I'd give if we're taking on that salary.

Does being 39 automatically make you bad? Belfour was still a really good goalie that season, 39 or not

39 or not, the highest scoring team in the league was still shut out 3 times.

Is Barrie really just salary? He's a RHD with 43 points in 61 games and is owed $4.5M through next season. I'm guessing Nashville sees him as an asset who'll get them another high pick.

 

[SlapJack]

39 or not, the highest scoring team in the league was still shut out 3 times.

And Lalime was never more than an average goalie. If there was someone better back there, the team would play different.

So was Osgoode.

Yeah, but it's Dorion.

 

[R We A Team]

Feeling we are trading for Korpisalo and Gavrikov from the Jackets if we win tonight... kinda makes sense although I'd prefer to stick with Soogard as Talbots backup.

Probably out to lunch on this but can't be any worse than "The Insiders" for a prediction

He's not a complete scrub, but if he's not playing on a PP with McDavid and Draisaitl, he's probably a 30-35 pt offensive defenseman who's bad in his own end and making $4.5M ($5M in real dollars) next year.

I don't think that's a positive asset.

I'd be very, very surprised if he breaks 40 points next year on Nashville.
