Huge win!!!

 

[Ulysses31]

Yeah!

Amazing wins, wings just upped their chances to make playoffs about 5%-10% percent last few games.
Proud to be a fan!

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

They played with a lot of heart

Well done

 

[Sentinel]

It's not the win, but the comeback too. They literally willed themselves to it. Vanek is a beast.

 

[ArGarBarGar]

I wasn't really expecting Holland to do much in the way of selling at the deadline, so I welcome these fun wins.

We will still probably miss and get a chance at a high lottery pick, but I won't hate these games. Especially against those Boston sons of guns.

 

[Zetterburgers]

That release by Vanek though......

 

[Claypool]

They're making the playoffs.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

They're making the playoffs.

No, they're not. They don't just get to mail in half the season and walk away unscathed.

 

[Syckle78]

Yay...

 

[Ulysses31]

No, they're not. They don't just get to mail in half the season and walk away unscathed.

Long shot no doubt but for me as a fan i enjoy being a believer, makes games more exciting

 

[DatsDeking]

They're making the playoffs.

I'll start believing that if they can string together 5 in a row. I want them to make it, but we're in a bad spot.

 

[Claypool]

No, they're not. They don't just get to mail in half the season and walk away unscathed.

The Atlantic is god awful. Any one of these teams could go in a deep losing streak. The Red Wings are getting some bodies back Abdelkader's presence has been noticeable. Tatar and Nyquist seem to be heating back up a bit. If they can just get some consistent goaltending they'll be in the mix right up until the end.

 

[Ulysses31]

Never liked the shootout (esp with wings being bad for years at them) but with all the weapons now its riduclous and more enjoyable to watch.

AA, Vanek, Nielson wow!

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

They're making the playoffs.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

 

[13to40]

I understand why Glendening is on for the faceoff at the end of OT on the power play, but I really wish coach would put somebody with more skill on the ice in such a situation instead...
On a positive, bet my friend $50 the wings would comeback from down 3

 

[golffuul]

Down 3 goals, twice. Feel bad for Coreau having to deal with the Cluster Foxtrot that was the first 10 minutes. But, yay win!

 

[Run the Jewels]

Big win for Mrazek, hopefully that kick starts his confidence.

 

[Bench]

Wings suddenly getting plucky. Hey, keep fighting boys.

 

[dutch00]

Mrazek is on an unbelievable bad streak with deflections lately.. I don't think I've ever seen this many in such a short timespan. Anyway he was sharp tonight.

This is the kind of win that could turn a season around... or just be the tease that I think it is.

I really don't think I have either.

That said Mrazek wasn't great tonight, but he was good. And that's a great start for him.

 

[Red Stanley]

Two Atlantic powerhouses of mediocrity colliding, hold onto your socks! Fun game after that dreadful first. Now if they find a way to care before going down a goal or three, I'd be a little less skeptical.

 

[borisbadenough]

Nice to see the third line show up I thought they were dead. We could become a three line team.

 

[Sadekuuro]

That release by Vanek though......

That was ridiculously awesome. How the hell did he do that anyway?

 

[NervousPerson]

Well, that was a lot of fun (after the 1st). Can't beat a plucky comeback win.
