This team certainly deserves more optional morning skates before games. Good job, Babcock.

 

[KJoe88]

Garbage.

I'm not even going to watch the next game because of these latest efforts.

 

[aar000n]

More useless plugs in the top line please, more Ericsson's on the top d pair please, more Howards rebounds please.

 

[Electric Eric]

This team really needs to hockey more better.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Outworked badly in this one. We looked slow and out of sync.

Defense is rough lately. When Quincey and Smith are maybe our best d-men in a game you know something is wrong. Kronwall, Ericsson and Dekeyser really have to step up their game. This isn't good enough.

Wouldn't mind a shakeup to both the forward lines and d-pairs. Wake the team up.

I've been saying it for a while now, but people need to start lowering their expectations....

55 +-+++++++ (8+, 1-)
52 +------+- (2+, 7-) How does an NHL defenseman pivot the wrong way?
27 -+-++++ (5+, 2-)
2 ++-+++--++++- (9+, 4-)
65 +---+- (2+, 4-)
28 +-+-+--++-- (5+, 6-)

Let's see how they do when Helm and Marchenko return, ok?

 

[SoupNazi]

So glad we helped them keep tanking. Not.

 

[TheRatPoisoner]

If this team even does make the playoffs, it'll be eliminated in the first round.

 

[ap3x]

They really suck lately. Only a matter of time until Boston ties, when we don't turn that awful play around. Wasted night.

 

[Wings Sauce]

It's very Detroit of us to lose our way into the playoffs this year

Go cheer for TB and Montreal and leave then.

Jesus.

This team sucks right, but when they skate, they're excellent. Team isn't skating, and it's infuriating.

 

[mindfly]

So Helm is the MVP of this team?

 

[ap3x]

Totally. We shouldn't be surprised..

 

[theanomaly]

ayy lmao.

on the bright side, the other teams at the top of the atlantic are not winning many games right now.

hurry back helmer. we need you.

 

[sean3250]

Let's see how they do when Helm and Marchenko return, ok?

Those two players aren't going to drastically improve our chances at a Cup. Solid players, especially Helm, but far from being impact players.

We aren't losing because we are missing Helm and Marchenko. This team has an atrocious 2D and an average 1G. That's what's holding them back.

 

[DatsDeking]

The plan is to lose our way into the wild card spot and to play the metro leader

Don't question my fandom. You don't know me.

Sorry that I'm a realistic fan, who has REALISTIC expectations for this team.

We'll see who's right in two months.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Not much right lately, thankful it is mid-march, at the same time it is mid-march, we are in big trouble if this doesn't start looking up in the next 10 days. Simply unacceptable. Granted I missed a significant chunk of the game ,but given what I saw I have a feeling I will be sick to my stomach watching the first half of it on replay.

You can save me the don't watch, I will, unfortunately I am conditioned to.

I'll be laughing when your 'favorites' let up because goaltending isn't everything.

I've yet to see complement this team in any fashion. ANY.

 

[Hendricks433]

With how bad the D was maybe Marchenko doesn't get sent down now once he's healthy. I'd love for Babs to be bold and demote or scratch Big E for a game. He's been a disaster for most of the season.

Holy over reaction batman. The chances of missing the playoffs are one in a million.

I'm done with him. He's been a disaster since the new contract. Paying him that kind of money to pivot the wrong way. We need to Wade Redden him or something.
