Do you have comprehension issues? I said our team has issues that need resolving and a W shouldnt be celebrated so hard given how we have been playing.
Yeah we won, so there is absolutely nothing wrong with the team. They played 100% perfect.
Hahaha yeah okay. Lets see how you like us scoring a goal a game is going to take us really far. Glad your okay with falling over the line and grinding out a 1-0 win.
Guess what. We dont have a strong enough defence or goaltenders to make that work long term. We need offence.
Yep, they are either perfect or terrible. No middle ground to be had, here.
Happy with the two points. But after bad losses to Winnipeg and Pittsburgh it'd be nice to see more goals. Thank the stars for Petr Mrazek (and Howard to a lesser extent), we're not winning many games scoring only 1 or 2 goals without him.
That's just how it goes with these scoring wingers. Sometimes you love 'em, sometimes you hate 'em. Nothing wrong with that really.I have such a love/hate relationship with Nyquist and Tatar. When they're on their game, they're a lot of fun to watch. When they're off their game, it's just pitiful. Watching Tatar lose pucks left and right and fall over on his own. Nyquist get pushed off the puck over and over... ever notice that any time he's within a couple feet of the boards it's a certain turnover? He's got to be the worst player on the boards I've ever seen.
I really wish they would find other ways to be useful to their team. Tatar used to start **** in scrums. What happened to that? Nyquist backchecks pretty well now and then but he'll never be a Selke winner.

That play by Sheahan to cut behind the net and make a great pass to Richards really set that Larkin goal up nicely.
Sheahan has been great as of late. I was expecting this to start the season, not sure why it took him so long to get going. He needs to work on consistency, because he really does have the ability to be a good player in this league.
Richards has been better lately, too. I really like his willingness to throw pucks on net, and he has a pretty hard shot so he seems to create rebounds a decent amount. Has a good amount of shots for how many minutes he's played.
Imo he only struggled the first 10 games or so. After that he's been very good but the points have eluded him until lately.Sheahan has been great as of late.

What just kills me about Detroit is that if they had one #1 centerman they would be wildly better, even if that guy replaced either Z or D right now. Tatar and Larkin and Abdelkader and Nyquist are all right there just dying to score goals, and none of them are transcendent enough to do so without the pivot carrying some of that water... and D and Z just can't do it right now.
It seems like every time the Wings enter the zone the defense is man up on everyone because they know Detroit doesn't have anyone at center (or at wing) who can win many battles 1 on 1 in the open ice.
If there was someone on the dot who could suck the coverage in towards him even a half stride it would make such a huge difference on how the puck moves and where it could go, but there's just not right now.
Datsyuk's literally the age Larionov was in his second year in Detroit. He can't be that guy any more. Not fair to even expect it of him. Zetterberg has turned into a smaller Joe Thornton.
People say we are a bad team and we rely too much on goaltending.
Well where would the caps, cats, Habs, Rangers and Devils be without great/solid goaltending?
Well Caps, Habs and Rags are top 5 in goals so better then us
