GDT: Game 15 | 11/2/2019 | Detroit Red Wings @ Florida Panthers | 7 PM ET FS-D

[Pizza!Pizza!]

f*** ESPN and f*** this weathered old bitch in their commercial.

 

[Kronwalled55]

The offense has been sloppy. They're just throwing the puck around and hoping it miraculously finds an open man.

 

[RedMenace]

I'd take Hitkowski back for the bottom-6 and scratch/waive/trade pretty much anyone else there.

 

[SoupGuru]

I'm going to piss some people off but AA is a terrible hockey player. He has speed, great hands, creativity, and a finishing knack (mostly)... only when the puck is on his stick and he's driving the net.

In any other situation, he has no idea how hockey works. No awareness. No vision. Just clueless.

 

[Kronwalled55]

This is just bad hockey from both teams. Nobody is connecting on passes, the puck is bouncing everywhere. There's no pace. What is happening?

 

[RedMenace]

That's what I liked about Biega during the pre-season games I saw: Tenacity.

All the tools, and no toolbox?

Am I doing it right, or is it the other way around?

 

[NervousPerson]

Geez Helm, you gotta make something out of those chances.

 

[Go Wings]

Helm sigh

I've been saying that for awhile, he started to win me over a bit last year when he went on that scoring streak - but I think he was just playing for a a bigger contract.

In a perfect world we could package him with a draft pick or two and get Werenski from Columbus.

More like just one really nice set of screwdrivers.

Lol, 12 seconds into wow what a pk.

 

[Kronwalled55]

1 Panther
+ 4 Red Wings
= Scoring chance

 

[Pizza!Pizza!]

ugh...time to bandwagon Holland's Oilers.

 

[NervousPerson]

No challenge?

 

[Pavels Dog]

Such great coaching by Blashill, team really showing some fire after an embarrassing game..

"but the players are bad" so we can't expect any kind of effort I guess

 

[Pizza!Pizza!]

Maybe the Illitches can buy the Panthers and then gut all the good players from their team?

 

[NervousPerson]

Mantha's a beast along the boards this year.

 

[RedMenace]

Unpopular opinion: At this point, I’d rather start Bernier more than Howard.

Yeah, I know it’s effectively seeing which turd polishes up prettier, but that’s where I stand.

Best response to that scenario.

Intermission? Time to go get more alcohol.

 

[Kronwalled55]

Since we're on a power play, maybe AA won't try to take on 3 defenders by himse-

Nevermind.

 

[NervousPerson]

LGRW!

They're both bad, but I feel like the Wings stay in games longer when Howie starts. They're kind of doomed from puck drop when Bernier starts.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

I'm just waiting for trade deadline and the lottery

 

[NotLeddy]

Absolutely no offense that period from Detroit

 

[Gniwder]

Nice screen by Daley

Problem for the tdl though is outside of Glendy who do we have that would fetch anything? We would be lucky to get a conditional 7th for the way green has been.
