I don't really care if they lose, I just want to see an exciting game.

 

[TheMule93]

I don't really care if they lose, I just want to see an exciting game.

I feel ya. The last exciting game I remember was the sharks game a few weeks ago.

That is my opinion of course.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Let's Go Red Wings Buffalo Wings style

Detroit 4 Buffalo 2

Detroit Red Wings

Henrik Zetterberg
Pavel Datsyuk
Mike Green
Dylan Larkin

Buffalo Sabres

Jack Eichel 2

Win one for Petr the great.

 

[Zman5778]

Good luck tonight guys.


As a heads-up....since the Ducks/Caps game got moved to 5 PM and still might be cancelled.....this game is going to be on NHL Network tonight.

 

[TheMule93]

Wings 1

Datsyuk (Mrazek, Jurco)

Buffalo 2

Oreiely (Kane, Gionta)

Eichel (riostiloinen)


Three stars of the game

1. Mrazek (.994 sv%, 2GA)

2. EICHEL (17 shots, 1 goal, -1)

3. Datsyuk (1 shot, 1 goal, +1)

I went to that game in San Jose and I thought it was pretty boring. I thought the Flyers game was pretty good despite the low score.

You're right about the flyers game. Forgot about it for some reason. That was a great game.

 

[lilidk]

Anderson was waved , is he going to play?

 

[Electric Eric]

Anderson was waved , is he going to play?

From what I've read he will if he doesn't get claimed.

 

[skate skate skate]

Anderson was waved , is he going to play?

Yes, he will play tonight and if he clears tomorrow, there's still a possibility he stays in the line-up for a while.

 

[SirloinUB]

Hoping we destroy the sabers

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Let's go Wings need the 2 points tonight to tie Tampa for 2nd in the Atlantic, Tampa is playing extremely well right now and we need to start scoring some more here.

 

[PelagicJoe]

That 4th line sucks.
Am I the only one who thinks Helm needs to get the hell out of the top 6? I guess we have no choice tonight since Richards isn't playing. Still, Datsyuk needs to be paired up with someone who can actually score.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Anderson was waved , is he going to play?

Yup according to Blashill, Andersson is going to be in the lineup.

I can't actually believe that Datsyuk wants Helm as his winger? Helm has like 3 goals in 43 games or so what a waste and Helms not helping Pasha one bit as his winger.

 

[aar000n]

Why is helm in the top 6 still? Why is Pulkkinen with two guys that cant pass. You want to stop the 4th line from scoring shadow Pulkkinen both 18 Andersson 41 Glendening have hands of stone.

 

[WingedWheel1987]

Dat piano...

 

[obey86]

I'd like to see them try Jurco with Zetterberg. I feel like every time they bring Jurco into the top 6 and it doesn't work, it's with Datsyuk. Why not try Zetterberg?

 

[odin1981]

Really need some ****ing goal support for Petr tonight. Is 3 too much to ask for? Every game it seems they are just flat on offense when he is in net for some reason.

"Pav likes playing with Helmer; Helmer does a lot of the work in terms of getting the puck," Blashill said."

I have no reason to question the sincerity of this statement given that we have seen this from two different coaching staffs. I am sure, however, posters will continue to ask why he plays with Helm in every ****ing game day thread.

 

[Rzombo4 prez]

Dats doesn't like going into the corners to get the puck. You haven't figured this out yet? Seriously?

 

[TheMule93]

I'd like to see them try Jurco with Zetterberg. I feel like every time they bring Jurco into the top 6 and it doesn't work, it's with Datsyuk. Why not try Zetterberg?

They should try Nyquist with datsyuk too. He always plays with Z and they ahvent done ****.

 

[skate skate skate]

Well... I wonder when they're going to try Gus and Dats together- that day will probably never come

Alright, I admit I didn't read tonight's lines
