What was the call on the Kronwall hit? I had the game muted. My guess was interference for being late?

Would be nice to score a 3rd period goal when we have the lead.

Decent effort, but a disappointing ending. Oh well..

Wings outplayed them 5v5.

Would say they deserve a better fate, but the awful PP and inability to score outs the loss squarely on them.

At least they got a point? Since the standings are so tight, every one counts.

Im personally ok with that game.I thought it was a very even well played game. A few thoughts

--Marchenko really should ask Blash what he has done to not be in there at this point. I cant believe he has to sit in the stands and watch this

--Green should be seeing 1st pp time. We brought him in here to add some life to the d and they dont even try using him. Its very frustrating especially with it being so stagnant, although it was a bit better tonight

--Would like to see these lines for a game

Gus/Z/Abby
Tatar/Dats/Pulk
Larkin/Sheahan/Richards
Helm/Luke/Jurco

Nice goals in the shootout, Mrazek just missed the poke on Giroux there

The wings will score more goals when their PP gets fixed, which I doubt will happen this late into the season.

Mrazek stellar again, easy MVP of this team so far this season.

Maybe you start by taking Darren "on pace for 21 points" Helm off of Datsyuk's wing.

Larkin on his wing might be interesting. Run something like.

Goose-Z-Abby
Tats-Dat's-Larkin
Richards-Sheahan-Pulk
Jurco-Glendenning-hlem

3rd line's looking pretty sparse there though without larkin on it...

I thought Richards-Dats-Larkin looked good. Keeps Tatar on the third.

Datsyuk is just so much more effective when he has forwards he can cycle with

Yeah that had stretches where it looked alright. They gotta figure something out anyways. You can have great advanced stats the every game like they did tonight, but if you burry it every now and then, it's meaningless.

Kronwall looked bad on the power play.

Green should be on the 1st unit over him and that's all on Blashill. You'd think the lack of success would force that change by now.

It's time to put the big guns together. Put Larkin and Datsyuk together. They looked great together along with Richards in the 3rd.

Marchenko in for Smith should be a no brainier for next game.

That was a good game to watch though.
