need to get this to OT so Raymond can win it

I just love how improved their breakouts are over the last couple of seasons. I've mentioned this before, but for the longest time they'd be so tired after playing 3 shifts in their own zone their breakouts were anemic.

 

[jkutswings]

I'm all for great passing, but this team routinely has opportunities to drive to the net and declines them too often.

 

[FMichael]

It ain't just him. Half the team is handling it like that

Indeed…Everyone outside of Kane or Larkin just tosses the puck in the opposite direction they’re facing…

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Ras had another turnover that should've gotten out.

 

[Bob Probert Owns You]

The lack of d zone structure is maddening. And Perron and Sprong are turnover machines tonight.

 

[norrisnick]

That's cold, Oz. I'm here for it, but that's cold.

Has anyone else noticed that Seider has been handling the puck like a grenade the last 10-15 games? His puck control is just jacked.

He seems to be getting coached to turn his creativity off. You’ll see plays where he dips doodles and it looks like he’s about to make a zone entry, but then it looks like he suddenly remembers that’ll get him in trouble and he either dumps it in or passes it back to the trailing forward. It’s infuriating.




fire Lalonde.

It’s lack of confidence. When you see defenders do that it’s them wanting to get the puck of their stick as fast as possible to try to not make a mistake. And it usually leads to more mistakes. If Detroit had competent coaching staff they’d get him to simplify his game and make smarter choices, not faster ones.

That’s not how you spell Kane.

 

[Winged Wheel Willy]

3 days rest, prime opportunity to jump up the standings, against a bottom 5 team…

And we are playing like f***ing bitches

Yes, and it's system wide. More teams are figuring out that a fast aggressive forecheck will force Detroit puck carriers into unforced errors.

Really seem to be a systems issue, and that's on the coach.

We also have a lot of guys like Ras, Copp, Chiarot, Petry, Ghost, Maatta, Holl who are just really low IQ players and that really messes up how well the system works. You can tell this is the case because the team gets into these weird controlled chaos moments where the better player's skill shines through and it usually leads to scoring chances.

I'm not into Old Fashioned, but they've got Manhattan with Bulleit (rye) or Basil Hayden, BevMo carries both. Gonna try the Bulleit version, I only drink rye bourbon in Manhattans. I haven't had one in over a year since my favorite bar changed hands. The owner was also the bartender.

Thanks. Really appreciate it.

I wonder if the Wings will get anything north of 22 shots on goal?

Hey we got 23 shots

Not dogging on JT but just saying elite players would take all that space and dunk it on the goalie there.

Empty tubs of butter are for recycling, not for my leftovers.

No probs. I make my own Manhattans pretty well - Bulleit or Angels Envy or Basil Hayden.

DeBrincat is snake bitten tonight.


Both teams playing for the OT point.

I feel like lately they've been dropping a bunch of replays I don't care to see.

I always go for Woodford Manhattans, but I got a Whistle Pig Piggyback 6 rye for xmas that is great.

DeBrincat is snake bitten tonight.

He’s been waiting to make move or take his shot a lot lately.

 

[Austrianwing]

Chia aimed way too low on that shot Gudas blocked

 

[SoupGuru]

Wow. Pretty obvious.
