Felt the same way. Even before the Abs hit we weren't generating anything, and the only real chance was the Franzen breakaway. This team is beyond boring. Very little skill, not much speed and no real physicality in the lineup. Pav and Hank showed a lot of heart carrying Detroit offensively down the stretch, but neither look dynamic right now. Frankly, both look like fading stars that are past their primes, which shouldn't be a shock because of their age. A plug like Cogliano or the young kid Etam have created more chances because of their great speed alone than almost every Detroit forward. How in the world does Holland build a team that has no strengths? What is our calling card? Our identity? How can a roster be weak AND slow? Lacking skill AND not hard to play against? It's frustrating to think about, let alone watch.
Datsyuk hit the post. We were very close taking the lead.
I think your post illustrates that the Wings have been winning a lot of and now even a playoff game is boring.
