The 2011-12 team was by far their best since '09 until injuries hit.Would the 2011 team be better?
I think people forget that team was probably the last real surefire contender we actually had.

Good job of not going to OT boys for 557 time and gettin that pp goin. Why this team can't get ENs is beyond me but we got a win in reg. Helm had a good night it looks like.
We won the corsi-war too:
i think the wings horrible powerplay skewed people's perception of their even strength play in this game
I was looking more of a dominating performance than a close, tight game. Montreal played yesterday and started their third string goaltender. Should have been a much easier win, IMO.
Montreal is one of the better teams in the league. I think your expectations are out of whack to be honest.
If you get a team playing on a back to back with their third stringer and 10 freaking minutes of PP time you should do better than what the Wings did. Especially with the shots and Corsi being what they were, it sure looked like a much closer game.

Okay game. A few too many mistakes that could have been costly if Montreal had converted or Mrazek wasn't so good. But overall we were the slightly better team in a game where both teams looked bad. Our PP could have cost us the game but it came up with 1 important goal so it gets a pass for this one.
Nice to see our grinders come up with a win. Helm, Abby, Sheahan were some of our best forwards in this game.
12 game point streak and closing in on Montreal. Keep this train going!

Who is the "everyone in the room" in that tweet? The players? Media?
To be honest if they had Price we probably have our usual 2-1 loss against them. They are the masters of looking mediocre and still winning a lot, they just can't do it as reliably without Price.Good win. For how ugly it looked, I think that's just a game against the Habs. They are hell on our transition game, and counter so quickly. Once we get established in their zone, though, I thought we had a clear advantage. It's encouraging we beat Montreal at this type of game, in the past I don't think we would have been able to grab those two goals in the third.

We're 4th in the league right now. Not bad.
