GDT: Round 2 of 7: Red Wings @ Lightning | 7:00 PM | Fight!

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

I'm a little bit tired of Nyquist and Tatar.
Tatar is clueless in what to do.
Nyquist's shots are weak.
Tatar is afraid to take a hit so he just dumps and runs away.
Nyquist is just skating in circles.

 

[SpookyTsuki]

Howard has 1 win in his last 8 or 9 playoff games. I lost count

 

[TheMule93]

Detroit fans should be happy the way this series has unfolded.

You want to a complete rebuild? Make Blashill the scapegoat now?

Keep hoping the embarrassment continues in this series and beyond.

missing the playoffs would have been a much less frustrating method of doing this

 

[GoAwayDanCleary]

Kenny needs a wake up call and I'm not even positive a sweep is enough.

 

[JPE123]

I think Abby gets a game.

 

[Huddy*]

This is the time where Holland needs to look in the mirror end make a call to GR and call up Eric Tangradi. Front net presence is much needed and someone who will go out and start messing with that little guy named Johnson. There's about 4/5 other guys that don't need to be seeing ice but I won't offend the people who like them. Bring up Eric now

Yeah, right... Dream on.

 

[utvolsfan]

But you acted like toughness is the answer. That might make you feel good every so often but it is irrelevant when they are on a team with no real identity.

Nope I understand toughness is not the total answer, but when your talent is getting slapped around, it might be nice to have a guy go out and settled things down.

We saw Tampa go after Larkin, and yet we allow Johnson to skate around like he doesn't have a care in the world. Go after their skill, like they go after ours

 

[KJoe88]

It was really borderline punching a guy like that.

Sure.

But the refs ultimately accumulated the absurdity that occured tonight.

Abby vented frustration and other players have as well during the playoffs. It's playoff hockey.

 

[Go Wings]

I still don't get why the hell Anderson is up here yet alone dressing

Cause hes a veteran and veterans are better then young rookies according to Hollands 1990 book of.hockey.

 

[golffuul]

Wings can't beat the refs.

Howard 4 losses. I said before the series start, we can't win with Howard in net period.

Wings beat themselves. Poor defensive coverage, no offensive flow. Terrible shot selection. No forecheck.

Our players looked old and injured. And it's embarrassing to see Abdelkader act like a goon.

 

[ArGarBarGar]

I don't think you fully understand how frustrating it is to watch a non playoff team.

 

[Vladdy84]

I think Abby gets a game.

Disagree. But this is the NHL. Just mad he didn't go after a meaningful player But heaven forbid he knocked out a tooth of Johnson, Hedman or Kucherov!

 

[golffuul]

I think Abby gets a game.

It was an aggressor...automatic 1 game. Could be more, if the NHL decides to look into it.

Luckily we've other pitch perfect players to make up for their sucking.

 

[berrenn]

Malkin in 09... no suspension

 

[Shaman464]

Sure.

There comes a point where a guy is down and you stop punching.

 

[utvolsfan]

I think Abby gets a game.

I'm not sure if I heard it right or not, but the refs said, a game misconduct, but that it wouldn't cause any extra games. Maybe someone else heard that

Yup.
