GDT: 4/19/16 - 7:00PM EDT - #2 Tampa Bay @ #3 Detroit [ECQF GAME 4]

[MattM92]

Too many players remained pointless after 3 games. Our depth is supposed to be better than last year. It will either make us going forward or get us to the golf course in a week. Huge test tonight.

Yup. Chances are the Johnson line will get tight checking. Need the other 15 skaters to get going. Mrazek is beatable. Their defense is very beatable. Just need to do it.

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Please put one of the final nails into the Wings tonight so we can Finish them in Tampa.

 

[CarpeNoctem]

The vets are the x-factor. Callahan, Flip, Boyle, Garrison, guys like that. We need them to score or at least generate offense.

 

[dbieon12]

You all know already that this is going to be more of the same garbage from Game 3. I'd be surprised if DET didn't get at least 2 times as many PP opportunities tonight.

 

[DaBolts]

JAM line gets the only goal.

Bishop says bleep you to the NHL "experts" and writers again.

1-0 Bolts in a nasty, penalty filled affair.

(P.S. - Blunden gets a game misconduct with 1:30 left for Kronwalling Abdelwimp)

^^ THIS. Now I'm going to go fire up the grill, cook up some BBQ Jalapeno bacon cheesburgers with grilled Florida sweet corn, and get primed up with a cigar as it cooks.

Let's clip the Red Turkey Wings boys!

Sweet barbecue menu. What's your address? If I leave now I can be there just before the clock strikes Friday.

Lol you'll be there for the elimination game.

Hopefully...

 

[Todd1a]

We lose games 4 and 5 and win games 6 and 7 I think

I bet 10 Detroit power plays

 

[Felonious Python]

Peel and Hebert are the refs tonight.

Tim Peel has his weaknesses, and somehow ends up with every weird situation, but I don't recall him singling out TB.

 

[These Are The Days]

Gonna try this one more time

 

[wxkid23]

Just win

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Just win

By like 5-0 so we can have a stress free night.

Shoot the puck. Anyone know who's officiating tonight?

hearing quincey in not marchenko only change for wings

coop just told announcers might be one lineup change for us? will let us know asap if that happens jeez game time decision for sure wondering whom it is lol

 

[DFC]

No changes to the lines. No surprise, really. I don't blame Coop. If we're 30 minutes in and can't get anything going though, he needs to adjust. But I don't mind going back to the 17-9-86 well again.

 

[Stammertime91]

Really need Namestnikov to step up tonight. He's been a non factor all series along with Palat. Those two need to get going, like yesterday.

 

[wxkid23]

We need offense and no Marchy?

 

[Felonious Python]

he took Coop's gum without asking.

Problem is, most of our best two way forwards like Palat, Flip, and Cally are killing penalities every other shift. Very hard to get offense going when you are on the PK for over 5 mins in a game.

Yeah, give it to 2nd period, even if it is scoreless on both ends, need to make changes unless the lines are looking good and just having bad luck or snake bitten.... hmmm the understatement of this season.
