GDT: Game 42: Red Wings vs kings 7:00 pm et 1/13/24 (ESPN+, BSD)

[Sadekuuro]

I can't speak to other games because I barely have time to watch the Wings, but refs have seemed slower to blow the whistle in general. It's annoying.

Highly variable (probably situational like everything else in this league). Very prompt whistle sometimes, guys taking several digs at the goaltender other times.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

what a steal by Kane

 

[SoupGuru]

OK, now we're in the danger zone with a 4 goal lead

 

[NervousPerson]

Boom!

I was underwhelmed with the Fischer signing but he's been a good fourth liner.

 

[Filppula]

That’s a really really good shift! Well done by Ras great shift should get an assist.

Edit: double tip so won’t.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Looked liked Copp got that.

 

[NervousPerson]

That might have hit Copp. Back to back games?

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Scoring goals is fun. Why don't the Wings do it more often?

 

[ShanahanMan]

Love seeing Fischer on the scoresheet. Really likable guy.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

It's nice to be on the other end of a late period goal for a change

 

[dj4aces]

OK, now we're in the danger zone with a 4 goal lead

We could have an eight goal lead, and I still wouldn't feel safe!

I liked that signing. Need fourth liners that can kill PKs.

Outshot them 19-10 in the second.

Love seeing Fischer on the scoresheet. Really likable guy.

I've liked him on the a line with Copp and Raz, seems like the line functions better as a whole in comparison to Perron being there.

 

[ShanahanMan]

Kane is just next level. It’s like he has sixth sense to always know where everyone is on the ice. He steals the puck and does a blind pass tape to tape with ease. So fun to watch.

 

[RedHawkDown]

W that was a great period

 

[NervousPerson]

Okay boys. Go into a defensive shell for the last twenty minutes to withstand the onslaught. Every puck is flipped to centre ice.

Edit: /s

Agreed. I feel dirty saying it because he was such a d-bag early in his career but his hockey IQ if off the charts. He looks almost casual out there because he sees the game so well.

It's hard to believe this is how good he looks after the hip resurfacing surgery.

Okay boys. Go into a defensive shell for the last twenty minutes to withstand the onslaught. Every puck is flipped to centre ice.

Nah, keep the pressure on. Run up the goals, trying to protect the lead always seems to backfire.

Sorry, I should have used the /s sarcasm indicator.

 

[RED WINGS STOMP]

Best period in a month. Sure a little good fortune as well, but I can get behind more periods like that one.

 

[dj4aces]

Okay boys. Go into a defensive shell for the last twenty minutes to withstand the onslaught. Every puck is flipped to centre ice.

While that's what I expect them to do, that's also what I hope they don't do. The protect defense is a really bad choice, in my view.

We've gotta keep playing like we're one goal down.

 

[Electric Eric]

Sorry, I should have used the /s sarcasm indicator.

Yeah, thats on me for missing that. Its still early in my current timezone is my only excuse.

 

[AussieWings]

Pull the goalie with two minutes to go? Very bold choice.

He really is. He's easily their most talented player since Datsyuk and Zetterberg retired.
