GDT: Wings vs Caps | 7:30 EST | FSD

[Redder Winger]

Looked like someone on Detroit just slewfooted someone along the boards.

 

[Ezekial]

Good pressure early.

 

[Ezekial]

This could be Riley Sheahan's last game as a Wing.

 

[Ezekial]

Helmer flashing that sick wrister we saw in preseason.

 

[breuk]

That was a nice shot!

 

[theYman]

Wooot woot!! Helm has hands.

 

[RedWingzz]

Helm shorthanded!!!!

 

[ShanahanMan]

Most AHL games have better attendance.

You guys think if we put a better product on the ice, people would come? Or are Detroiters just over hockey?...

 

[SoupGuru]

Did Holtby flinch thinking Helm would pass?

 

[Redder Winger]

Helm scores!
Defenseman gave him a ramp the top shelf

 

[theYman]

This could be Riley Sheahan's last game as a Wing.

Yeah he seems to be playing himself out of here. I never know he's even playing night in night out now. He's such a bust it's not even funny. How was he a 1st rounder? Oh yeah I forgot Holland picked him.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Come on guys sure could use another shortie here.

Hockey isn't what it was in Detroit.
Part of it is the product. Part of it is the apathy.

But a lot of it has to do with the way people consume sports now. Might as well stay home, drink all you want without worrying about driving, and watch on a big TV. Cheap, good beer. Cheap good food.

 

[Ezekial]

If I lived in Detroit I'd probably go to as many home games as I do living in Chicago. One.

 

[SoupGuru]

Can anyone on this team handle the fricking puck?

 

[Ezekial]

Damn, Mrazek going in hard tonight.

 

[SoupGuru]

To the net, people.

 

[Ezekial]

Gator on the ice for like 1:30

What a snipe though.

 

[SoupGuru]

Yay, the Kronwall screen

 

[breuk]

The caps looked like they were on the PP there. Wow

 

[theYman]

Worst sin in hockey to give up a goal in the last minute of a period. Howd that get through?

 

[TheMule93]

Detroits standing around, not even trying to make a play for the puck. Sad!

 

[Redder Winger]

Get the hell out of the way and let the goalie see it if you're not going to block it

 

[theYman]

And now carryover pp. Ugh the way to kill momentum in the pp.

 

[breuk]

I hate that Mantha is net front, he needs to be shooting!
