GDT: Lightning at Wings, October 14

[kook10]

You may be right, but that song is Livin on a Prayer by Bob Jovi

Ha. Talk about a false memory. It's gingko biloba time!

 

[FabricDetails]

You dated Lindsay Lohan?!? Or was that Tara Reid...

Nope. But hey man... A dry spell is a dry spell.

 

[dj4aces]

Sens won but Buffalo lost today. Trying to keep those teams in perspective.

Sens play TB tomorrow. One of those games where you wish there was a way both teams could lose.

 

[lilidk]

Red Wings dominated, not in the scope board. Don't recall seeing Kostin. Veleno was good, Raymond was good, game was fun to watch. Larkin was best player on the ice . Everyone played hard , play offs stile.

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

How does everyone like the new goal horn? It does sound different

I don’t. It’s the Panthers horn, doesn’t sound anything like the Joe.

Whether or not it’s acoustics, who knows.

 

[MabusIncarnate]

It makes me feel better seeing Sergachev was a team low -4 tonight.

 

[Henkka]

Great gritty win. We need way more mobility on the backend. Getting murdered by stretch passes.

It's kind of nice to know how we have some Edvinssons and Wallinders incoming... and Pellikka after some years...

Johansson and Viro might be decent too. Liked what I saw from both in PS.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Yeah defense has had some challenges so far but damn does the forward group look promising. There were parts of this game where the lines just kept rolling and bringing the pressure in a way we haven’t seen in many years.

 

[Hughes Hefner]

In spite of all the years they've been doing it, I still have no idea how Light The Lamp scoring works.

Yeah, because no gives a sh!t... for them to waste so much time on this every broadcast is journalistic malfeasance

 

[raymond23]

Bringing back the old goal horn plus the slim shady goal song has got me HYPE

 

[Ezekial]

It's been a while, I started feeling like an old man yelling at clouds, but I'm also here to say f*** light the lamp and f*** it being discussed during the broadcast.

 

[RRhoads]

I think Perron should sit. Bring in Berggren to take his place.

 

[The Real Pastafarian]

Great game, fun hockey, playing well against 2 great teams. Jack Hughes is the only reason we're not 2-0

Was that the name of one of the refs in the NJ game, that called 6 penalties and every 50-50 icing or offsides call against the Red Wings? Because that's an odd coincidence, there's a player from NJ with the same name.

LA has a player named Jack Hughes too to be fair so it's a pretty common name

Berggren can not succeed in his role. Perron is now on the 3rd line and the first PP. He protects the puck well and can win on the boards. he supplements the top PP in this fashion, until someone can do that job better, he deserves that spot on the team. Burgers gets crushed in board battles.

Raymond. Done.

 

[Dotter]

Red Wings are revamped! New (badass) goal horn, new goal song that will annoy other team's fans, New team that will make some noise. People will take notice soon. This isn't the same team as recent past. This is a team built to win going forward.

2023: The Year of the Revamp!

It sounds a little different, but I think part of that is because we're no longer listening to a .mp3 of what the JLA horn sounded like.

I've read some folks say it sounds like the Panthers horn, but I don't hear it. The Panthers horn has a higher pitch.

It sounded more similar to Minnesota's imo.

And last night was probably the closest to a Playoff atmosphere as ive seen it since the Wings moved to LCA. Like mentioned before in this thread, this a revamped Red Wings. The passes looked nice and crisp, we finally have a legit goal horn thats nice and loud, the goal song is a nice touch and im sure will annoy other fanbases. And its nice to see Yzerman address holes in the lineup, having guys like DeBrincat and Sprong who have no hesitation to shoot the puck is much needed.

Crazy how we swapped from too conservative but good defense to a fun scoring team with some issues to iron out defensively. I'd rather take the offense. Really exciting couple of games to start the year.

I remember a lot of blowouts not that long ago. I think the defense is largely the same as it was, but the offense now has a pulse to help keep things afloat.

I'd guess that this year and probably next year will be kinda like this. Between growing pains of existing players, bringing Edvinsson along, and swapping out a veteran or two, they'll get there. But it'll take some time.

I think this is quite typical for start of the season.

Defensive structure is nowhere to be seen on either side, I think it's still up in the air what style Lalonde will have the Red Wings play.

Last season Wings scored 8 goals in the first two games, just one fewer than what they have done this season. Two seasons ago they scored 9 goals in first two games.

 

[hayen]

The last time they were this deep at forward was 2010. Not 2009 finalist strong, but 3 deep with a solid 4th.

Chiarot and Ghost or Holl go bye bye and we get a journeyman 8th with Edvinsson as the 2nd pair guy is a major improvement.

Chiarot +0 - Ghost +2 with 2 assists in 2 games - Holl +2
I'm not sure they are a problem at this time. Maybe later but not now.

 

[Gniwder]

Chiarot plays well early season then finds a comfort zone and start sucking. We'll see how long it lasts.
