GDT: Game 82: Red Wings at habs 7:00 pm et 4/16/24 (BSD, ESPN+)

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

The jersey ad should've been for a an anti-diarrheal. Or anxiety meds.

This team has to do everything the hard way.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Good on Reimer for making some toughies.

Last period!

 

[GarlicbreadTB]

It's all to play for in the 3rd period of the 82th game. Amazing.

 

[Fynn]

Agreed. And he was playing almost 20 minutes a night. That's a big loss to an already mediocre defense

I don't get the radio silence. If he's hurt, say so. If it's a personal thing, a disciplinary thing, on ice, off ice, whatever. Just another thing to dislike about Lalonde.

Imagine owning a jersey that says Zoloft on it

What, did you think I wasn't watching?

You know, you're not going to believe this but when I posted that comment, I half-knew that you'd come up with that video. That's funnier every time I see it --- it's the look on Nessy's face when he's talking to the London street walker.

It's not Lalonde. It was like this with Blashill. And honestly I think most NHL teams are like this nowadays. It's annoying.

I thought it was a lingering LBI?

[Pizza!Pizza!]

I think they are intentionally losing to the Flyers keep playing hard. if DET was up 5-1 right now the Flyers would let up and we'd still be screwed. I just wish the Flyers game had started earlier.

 

[MabusIncarnate]

We could have had an OT griddy to take us into playoffs too, shame.

I still have a vague memory of a reporter that saw Shanny in crutches and Shanny said, "Upper body injury".

Walman has to be a physical injury, not the dog house. Maybe the speculation was because of one of the latest press releases stating "Walman is just not himself" but I think they mean he's not getting his usual push-off and acceleration because of a lower-body injury, not that he's having a dissociative event.

 

[Winged Wheel Willy]

Happy that we are in it. That period could've been a disaster.

Sitting here watching Canadiens multiple times skating in unmarked from the high slot and shooing after getting passes from behind our net. And literally NOf***INBODY cares to cover. God, I'm looking forward to the day our defensive structure isn't a joke anymore

 

[MabusIncarnate]

"Hey Red Wings fans, we get it. Ask your doctor about Zoloft"

 

[Axel Sandy Pelikan]

Sorry, best I can do is Pew Pew.

Henry Silva's a great bad guy. Especially in Steven Segal's first movie (before he went LA-La).

Our defensive breakdowns are awful...missed assignments all over the place

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Philly and Washington are tied

Either we have the worst video coach money can buy or the worst personnel on the ice.

I'd feel so much better about that if we were winning comfortably.

 

[jaster]

Exactly, it's f***ing hockey. It's a series of plays and decisions. But one mistake doesn't absolve mistakes further down the chain. So assigning full blame on the first mistake is silly to put it mildly.

Nope.

Sure, if there’s another practice this season, go ahead and coach Petry to handle a 2-on-1 differently. Tell Reimer to… be twice as good as he is I guess. These aren’t real things that happen on hockey teams though.

What actually happened is Ed probably realized he was at fault, reviewed the iPad on the bench, and will receive some coaching at some point on how to not do that again. Teams coach to prevent those breakdowns, that’s the goal. Dmen handling 2-on-1s and goalies being alone with a shooter are very much secondary and tertiary priorities.

It’s much easier to not do what Ed did than it is to stop a 2-on-1.

 

[dalem177]

IS IT WRONG FOR ME TO WANT FOUR MORE WINGS GOALS!!!!!?????!!!!

 

[The Real Pastafarian]

need some higher-danger shots than those, it's like we're just trying to rack up the SOG

that's all Kane could do with that, with all the time in the world? JFC

 

[FabricDetails]

Kane, bro...

 

[norrisnick]

Has nothing to do with coaching and everything to do with playing it poorly. Ed being the only one of the three with a hope in hell of learning anything from that play doesn't make it 100% his fault.

Shoot the damn puck Kane, you have a wicked shot
