GDT: Game 15 | Detroit Red Wings @ Minnesota Wild | 6:00 PM EST | FS-D

I'm not sure what you're driving at, since the point of that story was maybe the D and the goalies need to get on the same page. That means not standing a couple feet away from your goalie.

I'm driving at this point: even if Kronwall was trying to block shots like a boss, he's doing it aaaallll wrong.

 

[sarcastro]

Why does it have to be an either/or thing with Kronwall and Lashoff?

Clearly they're both playing like crap.

I love coming to a DRW message board to hear all about the Dallas Stars.

If it makes you feel better Hull, Verbeek, and Hatcher were on the team!

Also I figure it's a shade more interesting since, oh I don't know, everybody would know every single Wings anecdote around here. Yeesh, sorry. Now I know how people Mickey feels when people complain about his stories.

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

I have no words...

 

[Run the Jewels]

Kronwall once again on the ice for a majority of goals against, including the game winner. Please remind me how awesome he is at playing defense.

 

[Vladdy84]

Terrible loss.

 

[RedWingsNow*]

Time that Babcock gets the criticism he deserves.

People have been bashing Holland -- and with good reason.

But Babcock has lost his bearings.

And Modano!

That's been my position. Although I don't think it was on that goal (thus the discussion), but overall, yeah pretty garbage.

It reminds me of the Stars trying to make Robidas a #1 D all those years...

 

[BinCookin]

Well that was a dissapointing game. Look so good early, only to have it go away

 

[SoupGuru]

We come out working hard and not making mistakes. We get a couple of goals. Then we start playing loose and make mistakes. Those mistakes end up in the back of the net.

I know I've heard Babcock say over and over and over and over and over and over that they have to take care of the details. I'm surprised he still has a fine head of hair and hasn't pulled it all out yet.

 

[Run the Jewels]

And Modano!

And Goligoski!!!!!

 

[RayMoonDoh]

3-2 loss to the Minnesota Wild.

Ill take mediocrity for 5000, Alex

 

[Laser Rayzor]

3rd game in a row that they should have won, but lost.

****ing disgusting.

Babs should be calling out whoever the **** is in charge of the PP, instead of guys like Kindl.

 

[WingedWheel1987]

Horrendous loss. This is the kind of loss you see from bad teams

 

[RedWinger10]

It's time for a shake up. BENCH Sammy, BENCH Cleary, BENCH Kronwall!! Put them in the press box for a few games and let them watch some rookies take their places. Maybe that will get their heads out of their A$$3$!!!!!!

Losses like this are what really burn you when things get tight in the standings at the end of the season.

 

[PullHard]

If we had a working powerplay we get 1-2 points today. Even just a "pretty bad" road powerplay. Anything would be better than what it is currently.

 

[silkyjohnson50]

Tatar with the two best scoring chances by anyone not on the top line. Need to get this kid more opportunities.

Kronwall-Lashoff continues to be a disaster.

PP is an embarrassment.

 

[polymath]

At least Tatar is consistent in a good way

 

[RedWinger10]

Horrendous loss. This is the kind of loss you see from bad teams

Hate to break it to you but Detroit is a bad team so far. A bad team is a team that DOESNT show up to play ALL 3 PERIODS. You can't WIN a game in 1 period, but you can LOSE a game in 1 period. The wings have been the example of this lately.

This, really this.

 

[BinCookin]

And Goligoski!!!!!

when did we have goligoski?

 

[Bench]

when did we have goligoski?

We traded him for Neal.

Yeah, I'd remove Cleary from the top PP unit and add Filppula at the point or just keep Nik "goalie screener" Kronwall as your lone point on an umbrella power point setup with Fil, Z, Pavs and Brunner as your forwards.

1 potentially very good unit is better than one moderately good one and one gawd awful one.
