If Jurco doesn't score soon he's donezo. Doesn't matter if he plays right.

Way over Smith. He's never going to find that next step. Let Sproul have a chance.

Wonder how the Wings do tonight. BJs have had our number the past few years it feels like. At this point I'm just hoping our young guns look good.

 

[Claypool]

That's a scary top 9 if they could all play up to their capability. Too bad they can't.

 

[Hammettf2b]

That's a scary top 9 if they could all play up to their capability. Too bad they can't.

Until one sees Sheahan in it.

 

[Flowah]

That's a scary top 9 if they could all play up to their capability. Too bad they can't.

What good are is a great top9 if the defense is awful? That's 40% of the players on the ice that simply don't have the talent to support the other 60%.

 

[Winger98]

that second powerplay unit's forward line should be the second line at ES.

 

[jkutswings]

That's a scary top 9 if they could all play up to their capability. Too bad they can't.

I see three #2 scoring lines. Eye of the beholder, I guess.

 

[TheOtherOne]

Lolumbus? Ez win.

-me, years ago

 

[TheMule93]

That's a scary top 9 if they could all play up to their capability. Too bad they can't.

0 elite players, maybe one of em will hit 50 points

Very scary

 

[PelagicJoe]

Jeez. It looks even worse on paper when Nielsen is out and Mr. No Goals takes his place. Columbus is going to murder us tonight.

 

[iDangleDangle]

That's a scary top 9 if they could all play up to their capability. Too bad they can't.

It's an average top 9, far from scary. Elite talent is scary, not middle 6 talent.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Let's Go Red Wings, Columbus 5 Wings 2 have a really bad feeling about this one.

 

[Hammettf2b]

No Kronwall and no DDK on the PP = Win

 

[Reddwit]

Maybe Columbus won't take us seriously and we'll squeak out the win.

Oh, how times have changed.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Sheahan as the #2C...

 

[KJoe88]

That's a scary top 9 if they could all play up to their capability. Too bad they can't.

Mhm. And Nielsen is out too.

It's too bad, a lot of potential 60P players that are under performing. Defense being bad doesn't help.

 

[Frk It]

Sheahan as the #2C...

Larkin needs to play center for his development. He couldn't possibly be worse than Sheahan at center anyways. Stupid.

 

[Wood Stick]

Larkin needs to play center for his development. He couldn't possibly be worse than Sheahan at center anyways. Stupid.

He is. Larkin's defensive game sucks. Sheahan is at least capable there. However is Larkin is playing the wing daily, it needs to be with somebody that has vision which Sheahan does not have. If we're trying to win, which we are, Sheahan plays the middle. Personally all teams are meh, never out because of the loser point.

Which regulation/OT win was 2 points; loser 0
Shootout win is 1 point; loser 0

 

[Boomhower]

Sheahan. Yuck.

 

[Wood Stick]

Great start.

 

[NervousPerson]

Nice sauce!

Perfectly placed shot. Jensen!

 

[NervousPerson]

Nice jump so far. Who is this team starting on time?

 

[Tatar Shots]

Was not expecting this start

 

[theYman]

Sheahan as the #2C...

Which means he'll score his first goal. Then Blash will think he's Gretzky and park him there til Nielsen gets back.

 

[NervousPerson]

C'mon Petr. Jeez.
