GDT: Red Wings @ LA Kings

[Reddwit]

Mantha.

Tatar is simply a better player when he utilizes all his options instead of just blasting the puck.

 

[SoupGuru]

I guess Blash finally found a way to motivate his guys.

 

[golffuul]

That Mantha.....so HOT

 

[chances14]

I'm all about the tank, can't help but enjoy seeing AA and Mantha play well.

i'm perfectly fine with winning or losing as long as the kids are playing well

Players are playing for their own pride atm.

Blashill couldn't motivate a flea.

 

[theYman]

Whoa just check-in in. 4-0 Wings in the 3rd? Is this real life?

 

[Leronziia]

Mantha has 10 goals, next stop, 20.

 

[HisNoodliness]

Mantha is so good these days. Hopefully he maintains this level of play and is going to be a star. He's just always doing good things. He really learned how to utilize his size effectively even though he isn't skating around crushing people. He mostly uses it to create space and retrieve pucks.

I'm guessing their pride got wounded by Blash calling them out in the media as passengers

 

[Ezekial]

Mantha's point production is so impressive considering the anemic PP.

 

[TheMule93]

Gonna be fun to watch Mantha in the all star game.

18pts in 24 games after tonight (assuming he gets no more points). No way Z will be going. Noone else should other than Green who is injured, and maybe Vanek. I think Mantha will get the recognition as a kid tho.

 

[RedWingzz]

Any chance the league selects Mantha as the Wings representative for the All-Star game? Would be real cool to see him at the game right before Holland sends him back to GR once Helm and Abby are good to go.

He's our best player. He's gonna score lots of goals in this league.

 

[Claypool]

There's no other option to send at this point. He's going to LA.

Maybe send Vanek to increase his trade value.

 

[Ezekial]

Mantha isn't going back to the A. That phase of his life is over

 

[Leronziia]

What the actual **** DeKeyser?

 

[SoupGuru]

Damn, Ericsson at +4 tonight

 

[Reddwit]

Damn, Ericsson at +4 tonight

He's been great tonight. I was expecting him to be terrible this season, but outside of a handful of games, he's been on point.

 

[RedWingzz]

Mantha isn't going back to the A. That phase of his life is over

Ya it was a joke. Although if we ever do get everyone healthy at the same time, it's gonna get interesting. I honestly wouldn't be too surprised if AA goes back if we get fully healthy. Doesn't seem right, but Holland is always all about asset management and wouldnt wanna lose someone to waivers.

 

[Reddwit]

What brilliant skating and awareness by Athanasiou. Went with the give-and-go and dipsied through everyone making a line change in order to camouflage himself. Smart stuff.

 

[SoupGuru]

We should be talking about Coreau more

 

[Reddwit]

Larking must've spent his days in the LA area clubbing or something. He's looked so sloppy this game.

Yeah, he's really the only guy I noticed that seemed a little off.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Wow. What a terrible performance by LA. Zero effs given.

 

[golffuul]

Well I'll be. Coreau with the shutout. 1st one on the road in about a year, apparently.

 

[Laser Rayzor]

Nice game, good to see the kids come up big
