GDT: Wings vs sharks 2/24/19 3:00 pm est

Hard to get on the ice when the team keeps icing the puck.

That was one shift. There is no excuse to only play him 2 minutes in that period. That is on the coach, and not on the team icing the puck. I'm not entirely sure how this approach is suppose to help him gain confidence, by playing him 9 minutes per game. You can't get into the flow of the game that way. Send him back to GR where he was starting to gain his confidence and finally producing. Giving him 4th line minutes is so unbelievably, for a lack of a better word, stupid.

He's not up here to get points. Calm the hell down.

 

[RedWingzz]

Why is he here at all then? Either play him, or keep him in the AHL.

 

[DetroitRed]

I was just thinking back on how some of the coaches we've had used to change things up that weren't working, not just from game-to-game, but within games. Remember those days?

I'm not trying to say those coaches were better just because they had multiple Stanly Cups.

 

[TheOtherOne]

Abby could have 3 really nice primary assists, counting springing Glendening for a breakaway.

It's true! But I think they mentioned this was his first multiple point game since 2017.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

It's nice to hear the Detroit broadcast because when they were on NBC Sports I kept wondering when Roenick came out of retirement and signed with the Wings.

 

[SCD]

That shooting gallery was with our "best" checking line....

 

[SoupGuru]

Ericsson has been horrible since his benching

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Abby and Helm together on the "shell of their former selves" line.

 

[DetroitRed]

Ericsson has been horrible since his debut

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

At the risk of sounding like Mickey, I don't like that they have the iPads and all that stuff on the bench. The game is already overcoached.

Use your eyes and skill and experience. Let's separate the men from the boys.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

That hook to the hands of Kane could've easily been a penalty.

 

[SoupGuru]

That's a shit call

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

C'mon, Mickey. That is OBVIOUS interference.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

I think the ref called a penalty out of shock that Noodle overpowered someone.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

This broadcast is descending into homerism pretty quickly here.

 

[TheMule93]

I want Larkin to attack the zone with speed more. He ALWAYS pulls up as soon as he enters the ozone.

I'll give him a pass on that one as he was at the end of his shift. I don't think he had any speed left.

Wow another gaffe by Ericsson. He really has been bad since sitting out.

 

[SoupGuru]

C'mon, Mickey. That is OBVIOUS interference.

I don't get it. Dekeyser didn't move anywhere The guy initiated contact with him and gets knocked down. I thought guys were entitled to their ice.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

I think the unspoken rule is you get one push off to slow them down, but not hard enough to knock them down. If you knock them down, that little push turns into interference.

 

[Go Wings]

Ericsson is complete garbage. Move him at the deadline and lets see what Bowey can do.

 

[DetroitRed]

Whoa

 

[Hen Kolland]

Wow

 

[Realgud]

OMG LARKIN :O
