GDT: Game 70: Detroit Red Wings @ Montreal Canadiens | 3/12/2019 | 7:30PM ET | FSD

[Bondurant]

Wings have lost 8 straight against the Habs. Outscored 45-17 during that stretch. Roster appears to still be in shambles with Larkin expected to miss more games.

The tank will roll but I hope for less embarrassing results. I'll be repping the Wings at Centre Bell tonight. Score a goal, draw some blood and I'll leave Quebec a happy fan.

i knew we sucked against those ugly sweaters, but i didn't know it was this bad

I’m not big on hockey justice but one of these “character” guys needs to make Kulak answer the bell for his antics with Larkin last time around.

 

[13to40]

Will most likely be at the game tonight. Hoping for a rare win and a Zadina hat trick

Hoping for a rare win and a Zadina hat trick

Feels like the win may be more unlikely than a Zadina hat trick with the recent history of these teams. Sorry for their loss in advance

 

[lhsgolf19]

Feels like Bernier is going to play more and more down the stretch... He deserves it

I wonder if they will go Bernier/Sateri next year

Don't know about Sateri, he has been up and down. Rybar is looking like the #1 in GRG. Sateri's contract is up at the end of the season.

Bernier might be getting the start because he's from Laval, Quebec, same reason Jimmy got the start against the Rangers (he's from New York). Although there are consistency issues with Howard lately.

If I'm coaching this one for the Wings, I'm just out to cause injuries. Forget the win.

 

[RedWingsfan55]

Should've called up McGrath and anyone else willing to fight tonight


Start 3-5 fighters like Calgary did a couple years back against the canucks I think?

McGrath, witkowski, bert would be the first 3.

Wouldn't Blash sit him if he is playing at home?

Bert should not fight , he already had 2 concussions

 

[Super Fadio Bro]

i knew we sucked against those ugly sweaters, but i didn't know it was this bad

It included a 10-1, 8-1, 7-3 and 6-3 losses.

Please end the losing streak (and ruin the Habs’ playoffs hope in the process) tonight.

So Larkin was asked to answer for his hacking away at people's ankles and we're supposed to be outraged and looking to get even?

How about just playing non-embarrassing hockey. Start small.

.897 in the NHL and .898 in the AHL...

"Throw games away for Lafreniere"...?

 

[Hammettf2b]

Dat 3rd line doh!!!

 

[DInTheB]

Our third line might be one of the most expensive third lines in the league.

Red Wings leadership don't come cheap.

 

[Grimm]

Doesn't even play Witkowski lol. Blashill sucks I genuinely hate that guy.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Will most likely be at the game tonight. Hoping for a rare win and a Zadina hat trick

If Zadina scores a hat trick he should flip the puck to the Montreal bench for passing on him. Lol.

 

[Gardien2945]

Nice to see Bernier getting the start in net tonight. He deserves it after his effort against the Lightning.

In February people were going crazy when I said Howard was having a worse season than last year. And now here we are, Howard's wheels have come off, and he is now splitting time with Bernier. Its time to move on from Howard. He had a decent run, but, he's old, and not getting any better.

Why would he play Witkowski? Because someone responded to Larkin slashing with a wrestling match? Hardly worth a second thought.

Jimmy seems like he’s good for about 60% of a season. Once you try to get more than that, he falls off a cliff.

Know why that is? He tends to be pretty lucky. His rebound control is trash, and positioning isn't great, but, more than a few times he's benefited from low conversion rates on high danger chances. Luck tends to catch up with people eventually.
