GDT: Red Wings @ Vancouver Canucks - 10 EST

[The Zetterberg Era]

Good start to the second in my opinion. We are always going to struggle managing the puck with our D. But I like the effort and structure tonight.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Has the league gotten that much faster or has Helm gotten that much slower?

He doesn't look slow out there, but he never looks fast to me anymore.

Last time I thought he was really skating like Helm of old was in the Tampa game this year. He does seem a little slower. I think for the most part he has been good this year though.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

That is the kind of crap I don't want to see Larkin doing. That was the sophomore problem skate around with no plan and try a low percentage pass that catches everyone out.

 

[Redder Winger]

Slow pass on that 2-0 that put the Canuck forward in way too deep. He had nowhere to go.

 

[Redder Winger]

WTF is going on with the lines today

 

[Lil Sebastian Cossa]

Thank god Vanek had his sand wedge.

 

[Redder Winger]

WTF Vanek? LOL

 

[Redder Winger]

Vancouver starting to look faster. Maybe Detroit getting tired. Next goal is huge.

 

[TatarTangle]

That's about par for the course if Kronwall and Ericsson are on the ice together

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

AA undresses Sedin.

How do you miss the net when you get a puck like that on silver platter Nielsen??

 

[Ezekial]

Nasty hand work As


Dude why did you wrist that AA, coulda hit Frk with the one time.

 

[TheMule93]

Too much perimeter play

 

[Lil Sebastian Cossa]

This is the kind of stuff that AA needs to do consistently. Dig pucks out and just be a bull on the puck. If he did that every game... he'd be a star in this league and worth way way more than the 1.38 he's playing for right now.

 

[Claypool]

They have zone pressure for two minutes and still manage to give up a 2-on-1 with a tired team on the ice.

Because if he flubs that pass, between two forwards as the last two men back, it's a breakaway and riding the pine.

I thought there was plenty of space.

 

[Lil Sebastian Cossa]

He needed to fire it into the turkey hole.

 

[TheMule93]

Nyquist the perimeter queen

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Markstrom is 6'6" and 198 lbs.

Sorry Ozzy but if he's "really wide in net" it's because of his equipment. Not him.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

God the Sedin's are sooo smart. I am surprised they didn't call too many men there.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Not a slew foot, not even really a trip to me. Glad the boys wanted to stick up for each other. But I think Glendening will be surprised when he sees the tape.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

There you go Mantha!

Frk and Zetterberg just lost points.

I guess they could go with Frk... Wonder how they will score that.

This might not hold up anyway....

 

[Ezekial]

Mantha putting away the business.

 

[TatarTangle]

Nice work down low Mantha, too bad no goal for you
