Because for a guy like Jagr to score, you need some speed, energy, and a decent offensive defenseman to get him the puck? This isn't rocket science.

 

[XO]

A wiped season wouldn't have prevented this.

indeed. only thing it would've done is delaying the inevitable.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

A wiped season wouldn't have prevented this.

Actually, it would have specifically prevented this because there would be no game between St.Louis and Detroit tonight.

 

[RockemSockemProberts]

Well, I'm glad that's over.

 

[detredWINgs]

Strangely, I don't even feel like we were shut out. I feel like that would require us generating a scoring chance.

 

[detredWINgs]

Wow, John Keating was actually funny for once: "I guess the good news is nobody died."

 

[Z40]

I should have bought some lube before the game. That hurt...

 

[ZDH]

Blues add one more pretty good Dman and they are my cup favs

I'd still take the rangers.

Odds are, we'd get the Rangers or something.

 

[BF3]

Well that was unfortunate.

 

[PullHard]

I'd still take the rangers.

Not deep enough at forward. Traded depth for Nash, which makes sense, but Blues have 3 sick lines.

edit: Anisimov just proved my point. Dirty shootout goal.

 

[Vladdy84]

Perhaps the most regular season disappointing Wings game I can recall.

Ill reserve judgement on their three sick lines until we are further along in the season.

I don't know, I expected them to be bad, not this bad, but then I probably would have been more surprised by a dominant Wings performance.

Fair enough but look at the NYR forwards here: http://www.capgeek.com/rangers/

They are one Glassorik injury away from disappointment

^this basically sums up what I'm feeling right now.

Sure. They only have Callahan, Richards, Nash, Hagelin, Stepan, and Kreider to fall back on. Yikes.

We need a defensemen. Or 5. Not Jagr.

 

[Bob Probert Owns You]

I looked forward to this game for 9 months... utterly let down right now. I don't care of the Wings lose, but they better give a ****.

 

[PullHard]

Hagelin and Kreider don't do much for me, personally. I don't think Nash, Richards and Callahan are going to carry you past the Bruins, Pens or Flyers. But Torts is a good coach so maybe.

 

[Bob Probert Owns You]

Also, watching Suter play for Minnesota makes my heart cry.

 

[HTT3*]

We need a defensemen. Or 5. Not Jagr.

Or better team preparation. Can't win if you refuse to skate. Even Datsyuk was day dreaming out there. This loss falls on Babcock.

 

[nik jr]

Perhaps the most regular season disappointing Wings game I can recall.

imo, it is definitely worse than 0-8 and 2-8 losses to nashville and CBJ in '09, or 0-6 loss to NYI in '10, or 3-10 loss to STL in '11 b/c i still was confident DRW were good enough to be competitive.

this loss is so bad b/c it could be foreshadowing.
