Lightning lines other than Cirelli line look like they were given adrenaline shots to the heart.

 

[DFC]

We have like 26.5 million out of the line up today

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Already 8 shots on goal. Keep it up

 

[PRZ45MD]

Hedman is so awful* now it's not remotely amusing. His turnovers and icings make me cringe.

* Awful in relation to his own standard.

Yeah well our SOG yesterday didn't do us much good either.

 

[Brie]

Tampa does not look like they want the same result as last game.

 

[PRZ45MD]

Duplicate

I don't know, it just might be crazy enough of a strategy to work.

I'm fine with them working on their forecheck and puck possession game. Reduce the odd-man chances against and play a sound structural 5 man offense, 5man defense style game. This AHL quality team is useful to practice things since we have such limited practice time this season.

 

[DFC]

If we keep this up for 60 minutes, we might post 10.

Turns out the switch was hidden in a shutout loss to arguably the worst team in the league.

Too bad we didn't know that in 2019.

 

[PRZ45MD]

That was the first shift that the Wings have had where they had the puck for more than 15seconds?

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Really like our puck retrieval so far

It's just a shoot scramble and hustle with an attention to detail on outlets and managing the puck vs. a really bad team. Gonna be real hard to keep this pace for long though. Need to get a payoff on all this domination imo.

We won't keep it up. But still, we should be able to hold the Wings down to a level that Gibson can handle.

 

[DFC]

Good Cirelli-like shift for Cirelli

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Hey, the team actually looks like it cares today, imagine. Always surprising when they just flip a switch like this.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Yikes that could have been much worse.

 

[Brie]

Don't shot at our own players...*lol^*, Colton did still do that great to move hos head down like that.

 

[PRZ45MD]

And no one asks how Colton was down on the ice to begin with...Nah, not a penalty on Namesy... eh?

If that's the standard, someone is going to leave on a stretcher...

 

[DFC]

Whatever we do, we must not fight Namestnikov

 

[LightningStrikes]

Coleman heating up! 5th goal in six games!

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

We have more shots on goal this period (with 5 minutes to go) than McElhinney faced all yesterday through 60.

 

[DFC]

Cirelli is skating better than he has in a while. Maybe a personal switch has been flipped.
