GDT: Wings vs Canucks

[raymond23]

They're matching that line up against Larkin?

This is gonna be fun.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

They sat Chilowski in his hometown? Cold. Why doesn't Kronwall sit once in a while?

Kronwall is playing better than a few guys honestly. Just I would have rested Big E today.

Not against Cholowski sitting up top and watching a game or two. But, it shouldn't have been this one in my opinion.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

That was an excellent sequence.

 

[raymond23]

They should have Nyquist on the left side there instead of Nielsen imo.

Kronwall's been fine lately. Wasn't he supposed to be taking some games off or did I read that last season?

 

[SoupGuru]

That's gotta be a penalty on Roussel, right?

 

[raymond23]

Glendening is a good hockey player. Roussel is going to be a little shit all game huh?

I don't think resting him is a bad idea. But Kronwall has been better for a little while now. Not great by any stretch of the imagination but not a guy I am screaming for to come out of the lineup. He has been better than Cholowski and Ericsson. I don't think he is the target here. I would give him a back to back off from time to time but I get him staying in. He has been quite a bit better this year than last for me. Which is at least nice that he gets to go out a little better, for as hard as he has worked I think he deserves that.

Bernier belongs in the AHL... another great Holland signing

 

[raymond23]

Everything that goes toward Bernier goes in. Feels like Mrazek before he left.

 

[NervousPerson]

Welcome back Petterson.

Mrazek is Hasek compared to Bernier.

 

[raymond23]

When was the last time the Wings had a line as good as Larkin's?

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

When was the last time the Wings had a line as good as Larkin's?

Filppula - Zetterberg - Hudler would be my best answer I think...

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

When was the last time the Wings had a line as good as Larkin's?

A few days ago in Calgary.

 

[raymond23]

Filppula - Zetterberg - Hudler would be my best answer I think...

That was an amazing line as well.

 

[raymond23]

I wonder what would happen if you put Athanasiou in Nielsen's slot (5 on 5)...

Probably a lot of GA but I think it's worth a shot.

 

[theYman]

Yuck. We look like shit. Can they get the puck without icing it??

 

[NervousPerson]

Love Bertuzi's game. Good pick.

 

[raymond23]

Yo Helm you're not Datsyuk

 

[Claypool]

Love how Helm controls the puck for like 20 seconds and never does anything with it. Turns it over and Vancouver gets a better scoring chance in the dying seconds. Why not just shoot in the corner and keep it deep in the offensive end?

 

[SCD]

I wonder what would happen if you put Athanasiou in Nielsen's slot (5 on 5)...

Probably a lot of GA but I think it's worth a shot.

How many times do we need to see AA fail at center ?

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

How many times do we need to see AA fail at center ?

I know I don't need to see it anymore. He is significantly better as a winger in my opinion.

 

[Realgud]

When was the last time the Wings had a line as good as Larkin's?

Franzen - Zetterberg - Nyquist was amazing a few years ago before Franzen got injured (again... )

 

[aar000n]

Bernier is a cast off goalie
