Does Vanek really make that much of a difference for this team? With him out we look like ****.

We need to stop bouncing up and down emotionally with the ebbs and flows of the season.

The reality is this was entirely predictable. The underlying numbers during our win streak were not that good. We got lucky a few games and outplayed a couple teams and strung them together for a 6 game streak. Good for the team, but ultimately unsustainable and predictable.

This is a bubble team. We're playing like it.

I'm disappointed like most of you, but not at all surprised. This. Is. Not. A. Good. Team.

and yet, we're told this is the way to build a good team...

Why is Nielsen incapable of winning faceoffs all of a sudden? Does he need glasses or something?

Third game in four nights, playing against a good, rested Florida team, and missing the team's best performing forward. You're reading too much into the recent couple games.

Okay. Keep making excuses. If you really think this is a good team then I've got a bridge to sell you.

We look soft again IMO. We won a bunch of games with physical hockey. We actually had a forecheck. We were rough in front of the net.

What do we get? Dump ins with no chase. DDK playing like a sissy in front=goals. Just like playing TB in the playoffs. Garbage goals in front from soft play.

Get back on the intensity. Good lord.

Ya and Florida isn't rested they played yesterday too. Team looks exactly the same as last year, no flow, no puck movement, no attack, just dump it out then dump it in other team breaks out easily and more defending. Honestly so pathetic

This is embaressing.

The fans that payed money to watch this should be refunded, and the money should be taken out of these plugs on the ice's salary.

Disgusting effort, after a disgusting effort yesterday. The 6 game winning streak is long gone, this team sucks again, and I'm afraid this is probably the real Red Wing team. Blashill needs to tear into these guys at the intermission, this is nowhere near good enough for the NHL. The players should be ashamed of themselves.

Florida have owned us for most of the last 3 or 4 years. We always seem to mess the bed against them.
