[theYman]

Not the current Vrana. Current Vrana wouldn’t have been in the position to try

Sad on how fast a player can deteriorate

 

[MBH]

whos hellstrom?

Defenseman from 2005 draft or so?
Fairly big. Hackey and nasty. But couldn't skate.

 

[theYman]

And we score first and lose again. How many times is that in the last like week?

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Larkin... man
Could have been 2.
But Larkin coughed that up

On the replay it looked like he got hooked pretty good. Completely spun around

 

[MBH]

Who's gonna turn this group of forwards around?
Soderblom?

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

The Isles 1st looking more like 13-17 range, ours looking more like 7-10! I see this loss as an absolute win!

 

[Hen Kolland]

Who's gonna turn this group of forwards around?
Soderblom?

Kasper, draft picks, health, trades the possibilities are endless

In real time it did too.
Usually Larkin would be pretty angry over that - especially if it resulted in a goal.

 

[The Real Pastafarian]

Once we lost those 3 in a row, Rasmussen suffered his injury, and we traded Hronek and Bert, I started rooting for losses from here on out. It's all about the draft now.

And with this game, my sinister plans are all falling into place (rubs hands with devilish glee.)

 

[MBH]

Nosek - goal
Bert - assist

 

[theYman]

This team's done. They look like a dismantled team.

 

[Geeve]

Larkin said he's in the know with Yzerman, guess he got the heads up on which golf clubs he's using this year.

 

[MBH]

This team's done. They look like a dismantled team.

When you're busting your ass for every loose puck and trying your hardest - and you're nearly there - and your GM trades away two of your best...
It's gonna be hard to maintain belief in the mission.
Human nature.

Probably too late to really sink very far.
Most of the other teams sold harder than Detroit.

 

[redwings8831]

First regulation loss when leading after 2 this season.

Goal on twitter doesn't show the hook. But Larkin was spun around.
Larkin should have interfered with him a bit. Probably would have gotten away. Chiarot was on his way to the bench when the turnover happened.
It was an awkward crossover too, which bought Lee even more space to shoot.

 

[SoupGuru]

It looked to me like Larkin tried to initiate contact and it wasn't there which threw him off balance
