this is what I posted before the game
I thought Abby played great game 1. was surprised to see how much he improved
anyway my pregame ritual says Wings are going to score alot of goals and will chase Hiller away.
as you can see things were going well according to the plan.. I thought I might have turned into a hockey Nostradamus by the mid 2nd period. I admit I got little too cocky.
Then Flip takes a dumb penalty that leads to goal and shift in momentum. He tried hard after that but kept failing failing and lost majority of the battle. I was ready to get my car and kidnap him between period and drive off the cliff. Then he started to get his **** together. so I hope he continues.
I agree with most that our forwards played well.. except in our zone. too much standing around not doing anything by some players.
I thought our D were hit and miss. Kronner was taken to school all game long. our rookies were... well.. good to bad. Quincey definitely needs to work on his power skating during offseason. His skating is severely hindering his game.
obviously our breakout was excellent. great job by Defence, Foward and coach.
No further comment is necessary for Howard's performance tonight. Like everyone said, he needs to treat it like a giveaway goal and just play like his usual next game. god damn i really hope he can rebound. If not... we are going out in 5.
