All good points. Plus the fact that Tavares is head and shoulders better than anything on this roster, and he just finished having a great month of January (8-6-14 in 12 games).Islanders have been good since Weight took over. They won 5 out of 6. Detroit hasn't been good, haven't won in 6 games. I think a new coach might have done that for the wings. But too late now. Might as well wait for the offseason. I just hope Blashill hasn't completely destroyed some of the young guys confidence by then.
Doug Weight has got the Islanders believing in themselves, Blashill has the wings questioning themselves.
Let's Go Red Wings, Islanders 5 Wings 3 feel another loss coming up. Nashville, Columbus twice Washington in our next 5 not going to be easy.
Not to mention 3 of the last 4 after that include Minn, WSH and PITT... with a desperate STL team peppered in there.

Put Smith at 4th line wing, keep Marchenko, fire Sheahan into the sun.
Uwe Krupp & Ray Whitney were more effective as Red Wings, than Sheahan has been.Sheahan is so cold that he would probably extinguish the sun.

That contract was definitely some rough sledding.Lol yup and Ewe Krupp was a major disaster in a Red Wings Uniform.
I have a real hard time watching the broadcasts lately. I love Mickey, but he really needs to stop talking about how the Red Wings are one hot streak away from contending for a playoff spot.
Wings currently have a 1.1% chance of making the playoffs. Either they are delusional, unaware, or intentionally oblivious to give the casual fan some hope. Not sure which.
If they lose this game and look bad doing it, they're just about done.
