Really really great game.

 

[Flowah]

Low scoring, but it was still exciting. That's ****ing hockey.

Gus #1 star with the shutout.
Z #2 for that finish, thank you based beard.
I dunno for the third. Maybe Tatar? He generated stuff and looked dangerous all night, but no finish. Glendening was killer tonight as well. Hell, pretty much all the forwards were good tonight, some more than others.

Sorry to disappoint everyone but Nyquist is no longer at a 82 goal pace...........only at 65 goals pace now

Trade the bum.

 

[The Geelee]

Zetterberg is a monster

Honor to have him as Detroit's Captain. What a player

 

[WingedWheel1987]

Great win, but the lack of offense is troubling. Hopefully Datsyuk returning gets the offense on track.

 

[Shoalzie]

You don't need a ton of scoring to have an entertaining game. That was about as good of a 1-0 game as you can have.

 

[Cal Vandelay]

Amazing! This team is fun to watch win or lose. More so when they win

 

[theYman]

Sweep!

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

What a game Glendening had. Wow. I didn't think he was capable of playing like that.

 

[joe89]

Yeah, the only thing bad about this game was both team's PP play.

Great great win.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

I feel like the kid line is about to explode, hopefully Babcock doesn't break them up when Datsyuk comes back.

Great game, missed the first, but was impressed with a lot of the guys again.

 

[Crymson]

I'd say Glendening has firmly established himself as 4th-line center. He's now the first of Babcock's fixations that has succeeded over the past few seasons.

 

[SoupGuru]

Yeah, Monster, Z, and Glendening again for me

Glendening has made it into our stars of the game a few times already this season.

 

[Heaton]

Gustavsson still scares the **** out of me. Great game!

Stars:
Gustavsson
Zetterberg
Glendenning
Tatar

 

[Classicnamesup]

Gus was sort of a mess, cannot handle the puck. Bobbling it everywhere, unable to catch or control the rebound. It really is a miracle he got a shutout.

Tatar and Glendening really stood out tonight, Tatar looked like the most dangerous player on the ice all night.

 

[Claypool]

Glendening was 76% on faceoffs and Andersson was 88%. LOL

 

[RyWy]

Really good game to watch, it was a nail biter! Go Wings!

 

[Flowah]

Great win, but the lack of offense is troubling. Hopefully Datsyuk returning gets the offense on track.

I'm not that worried. It's not like there weren't a bunch of grade A chances. If you play like that every game, you're going to start scoring eventually. Obviously getting Datsyuk back just makes it that much more dangerous.

 

[Eastopia]

"Amagad, you guys, Monster's in goal we've gotta score 10 goals to win!!"

Only took one and we could afford to wait until 10 seconds left in OT to get it. Was actually predicting a Monster shutout so I'm glad to see I was right. Sad Nyquist's streak is broken but I'll take the 2 points and no shootout. He'll make up for it with a hattrick in his next game, just wait and see.

Zetterberg
Monster
Kronwall

Great game, though. '67 forever.

 

[JPE123]

Monster, Z, Glenny,Tatar, Andy,............... Nice team effort

 

[chances14]

Kind of a soft goal by Bernier, considering some of the saves he made in this game

Very entertaining game for being 1-0

 

[Vladdy84]

Wings were so good tonight.

 

[Yemack]

when Z scored and put his arms up in the air I was on the floor pounding jumping yelling 'you da man Z'

should have had more poise and finished better on some of those chances but it was a great game

 

[Claypool]

Weiss with only 8 minutes of ice time in that game. Only one :30 shift in the third. Safe to say he's back in the fridge with Cleary.

 

[silkyjohnson50]

I love this team.
