GDT: Game 39: Red Wings at kings 10:30 pm et 1/4/24 (ESPN+, BSD)

"Many folks may remember that the title song for the 80s movie To Live and Die in L.A., indeed the whole soundtrack, was a deep synth pop sound by a then-popular band. It's overly dramatic to say that Detroit's playoff chances will live or die by the outcome of tonight's game, but squeaking out a point or two against teams like the Kings may make the difference come April between the Wings playing golf and the Wings having fun while they Wang Chung."

Let’s put Howard back in net to seal the deal. Didn’t he always play LA well? Or is that revisionist history lol

He was great against LAK and NYR.

 

[KJoe88]

Any 'Motor City' celebs in the audience that works/lives in SoCal?

Crazy how they almost talked about something similar on the pre game. Weird asf

 

[SoupGuru]

Effort. Effort.

EFFORT

 

[RRhoads]

[SoupGuru]

Also, let's do a shot each time Ozzy says "each and every" and "ekspecially"

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Kempe just all alone.

 

[SoupGuru]

Offsides?

 

[dalem177]

I was just going to say that I liked the first 2 minutes.

 

[norrisnick]

Why... skate away from the guy in the crease, Olli? Why?

 

[dj4aces]

Hell of a way to start the game.

 

[ColdToiletSeats]

yep it's time for bed

 

[FMichael]

Well that didn't take long...As expected.

 

[dalem177]

No panic!

 

[The Flying Octopus]

Holl in no man’s land playing pond hockey.

If Holl struggled w a cup favorite in Toronto, what in the world did Yzerman see in bringing him to a rebuilding team? Pathetic. Pay attention.

As usual, a forward is leaving a player wide open when covering for a defenseman.

Huh? Olli had the guy marked, and inexplicably skated away to chase a guy who had no angle. The only dangerous play was the guy that he abandoned.

 

[ColdToiletSeats]

this 4 goals or bust thing lol we're never making the playoffs

 

[JediOrderPizza]

I mean all Veleno had to do was actually take Kempe and not just skate and stand there.

Another wasted 1st rounder

 

[Wingfan191]

[norrisnick]

Pass off the pads...
