GDT: Game 61: Red Wings vs cats 3:00 pm et 3/2/24 (ESPN+, ABC)

[Ezekial]

Refs can eat ass dude, they ruined this game.

 

[FMichael]

hard to take any positives out of this one.
Anyone...?

Positives?

Yes - absolutely!

THIS is the style of hockey our boys need to learn how to play when it comes to the post season...It's been so long that we forget what a tough/determined Red Wings team looks like.

 

[datsyukfan]

These refs are a joke. Florida gets extra shots all night but when we are aggressor it’s extra 2 on us.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Can't lose your cool, JW. They r up 3-0. Pit your team in a bind needing three to tie in Les than 8 min to go

I thought the two guys were trading shots. Based on what happened throughout this game I don't see how you take just Walman unless I missed something?

What did Wally do that got the 10 minute misconduct?

 

[saska sault]

Eh, maybe a good ass kicking is needed. This time of the season isn't for playing soft.

 

[wings95]

Wings have lost their minds. You are not built to be a tough team. Play your game not theirs.

 

[SoupGuru]

Larkin got a misconduct. For mouthing off from the bench? Was he even on the ice?

 

[13to40]

Matthew doesn't bully anyone. He's a rat that draws them into penalties like Chiarot just took.

Call it what you wish. He’s big, he hits hard he gets under your skin and then scores against you on the power play.

If he’s permitted to freely roaming around taking liberties at the players without any repercussions, the team will more often then not probably end up on the losing side of the game.

 

[theYman]

Bultman said he went down the tunnel after the scrum.

I don't understand that. What did Larkin do?

 

[Sadekuuro]

Nothing like playing like a bunch of wimps all game and still getting all the extra roughing penalties. Might as well get our money's worth next time.

 

[Realgud]

As if Florida needed the help from the refs. They are good enough as it is. I guess they are Bettman's new favourite warm climate team.

 

[Ezekial]

It's like they ref the two teams differently because one is expected to be a bunch of and the other one is expected to be soft.

 

[Ed Ned and Leddy]

Refs are in the same business as Detroit’s new jersey patch. That said, we played right into Florida’s hands today. Not the end of the world or season, but it’s a learning moment.

 

[wings95]

I thought the two guys were trading shots. Based on what happened throughout this game I don't see how you take just Walman unless I missed something?

IDK. Its Ben. That kind of game.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

May be a blessing in disguise right before the deadline we don't HAVE enough firepower or D!

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Maatta I know you're not that physical but you cannot let Bennet camp out in the crease and take that many pops at the goalie

 

[FMichael]

Wings have lost their minds. You are not built to be a tough team. Play your game not theirs.

Unfortunate reality is that our current style of play doesn't bode well for the playoffs.

 

[Winged Wheel Willy]

Is he a semi fighter or just another big body?

Fights, hits, skates well, 20+ goal scorer, 4.3mil for 4 more yrs. I desire him deeply xD

Problem is that I am not the only one. Other teams want to make it a group thing.

Oh and 6'4 230lbs

 

[GMR]

Can someone get Kronwalled out here?

 

[datsyukfan]

Maatta I know you're not that physical but you cannot let Bennet camp out in the crease and take that many pops at the goalie

Ya his teeth should be in the cross bar on that play

 

[slimnipsu]

our D needs moar EVIL

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Should've traded Maatta at his two goal height lol.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Unfortunate reality is that our current style of play doesn't bode well for the playoffs.

I don't disagree but I'll worry about that when they actually make the playoffs

 

[GMR]

our D needs moar EVIL

We have a lot of size on D. Just not much toughness.

 

[GreytWun]

This is why losing to NYI the other day was unacceptable.
