Wings are starting to slide down a very slippery slope
Yup. Can't believe they let such easy points slip away.
Win these last 3 games we really start to separate from the bubble pack. Now we're near the bottom of that pack.

Zetterberg only cares about his money, his horses and Emma.
Zetterberg only cares about his money, his horses and Emma.
Further evidence of Zetterberg's love for money is that he was really into the CBA negotiation, was really negative about it the whole time, even after it was settled he whined about "the owners got everything, our terms got a lot worse WHINE WHINE WHINE", and is still to this day "butthurt".
You still make millions of dollars, shut up.

I believe if Howard was in net, we would have won a point or 2. But we struggle on the road.
Kind of strange we lose to the Jackets and Flames.
Are you kidding me...we would not have done any better with Howard in net. I watched the whole game and you can not go by stats alone. Yes, we dominated most of the game and got more shots on goal...but the majority of the shots were not in the "danger zones". The Flames had fewer shots but they were all in the middle of the ice and in the "danger zones"....
I think we're in the minority but I completely agree. As this game quickly got away from us I never once questioned Monster. In fact after the game he was almost crying! He obviously cares a lot and his quality penalty shot save stands out in my memory.
Some of the posts criticizing Datsyuk are downright ludicrous. Pavel is night in and night out the best player on the ice. Our "first star" criteria is childish compared to how unbelievable Dats is every game. How he can complete pass after pass under extreme pressure is mindblowing. 4/5 times he makes a play to at least keep possession. Wednesday was as good a game I've ever seen him have. The quick turn ups, stickhandling, creative attempts...at one point he took off racing I've never seen him explode with such speed. Without Pavel it would be hard to imagine what this team would be.
Now Zetter...that's a different story. Sadly I think as he goes the Wings go. He seems drained. Descent but not dominating like we've seen for so many years. I worry about his back. I agree with the earlier comment that he overplayed himself during the lockout. I wouldn't mind if he sat out and rested himself a few games.
Another positive, I agree with Redmond, Fil didn't miss a beat coming back. There are times he appears so elite it seems anything is possible. Man it would be terrific if he could take over games like I know he (and Franzen) could.
Kindl is a rockstar! Played a STRONG game besides the unlucky bounce of his skate into our net (when Lashoff fell at the red line).
Nyquist was pretty invisible. Yea I know TOI etc. but Tatar in his limited opportunity rocked it. Hoping Gus can makes waves next game. After 18 games last year and a few this season, is it possible he can't translate his success to the NHL? Or how long could we expect it to take for him to truly stand out?
