Pre-Game Talk: Red Wings vs Boston

[NumberFive]

Does it really matter? Jurco played the least amount on the team.

Only takes one 5-second bonehead move to lose a game.

 

[Mister Ed]

Eh. Their third line center is Talbot who is barely an NHLer anymore.

Spooner did play last game as the 3rd line C, but even with Talbot in there, he's a Wings' killer. He scored their 2 goals (including GWG) when they won the Cup.

Back when he was good 7 years ago.

Back when he was good 7 years ago.

Still a serviceable player, especially when flanked by Beleskey, who is a freight train, and Pastrnak, who is always a scoring threat. Talbot is no Sheahan, though.

As nervous as I am right now, it'll be nothing compared to how nervous I'll be come Saturday if they lose today's game. Ugh, don't even want to think about that, so please please win this game.

Can we all just collectively agree never to bring up that game ever again, hurts too much.

yes I am joking, partly *sobs*

Here's the whole exchange from yesterday

 

[Lampedampe]

Wings win 4-3 in OT, Nyquist player of the game.

 

[BazDaSpaz]

My nerves are through the roof right now. Still have 3 hours to go. Time to crack an early pre-game coldie. Go Wings!

 

[Bench]

Jimmy was amazing last night. Hopefully that confidence carries over to tonight's game.

A win tonight and Jimmy is a lock to start in the playoffs. On one hand I'm pretty bummed about Mrazek, but on the other it's great to see Howard mount a comeback here and push himself back into a position to succeed.

And of course Holland sitting back going, "See, depth." To what end we'll see, but it's been nice seeing starting goalie Howard back rather than backup Jimmy.

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

i think we win tonight 4-2

Sounds good to me.

 

[Heaton]

I really hope the Wings surprise me and make it to the ECF.

 

[mindfly]

Wings lose 3-2

 

[Ezekial]

I really hope the Wings surprise me and make it to the ECF.

If they can secure the 3rd (or second) Atlantic spot they have a really favorable road there, definitely attainable.

I really hope the Wings surprise me and make it to the ECF.

As long as we have the right goalie and lineup with no injuries I'm pretty sure we could

Revenge on Tampa
And then we face Florida/nyi. I think we win

Who knows maybe then we face one of the chokers. And then Dallas for the cup and expose their dfence and win
