GDT: Wings vs. Wild, 3:00 PM, NBC

[Wood Stick]

Oh he meant to spear him for sure, pretty sure he didn't mean for it to be that high. But what you meant to do isn't really a huge factor, it is what you did do and he is going to pay for that.

This. I absolutely don't think he meant to catch him in the face. Torso area maybe?

 

[SoupGuru]

I believe he intended to spear him in the chest tbh. Spurgeon is on the short side and Nyquist had him in the face before he even realized it.

And spearing in the chest isn't a dirty ****ing play?

 

[ShanahanMan]

Blow it up. Trade anyone who has value. Resign Vanek in offseason.

 

[dragonballgtz]

This is another stretch of play where they look ok but have nothing to show for it.

Looks like Wild are letting the Wings have the outside. Any shot we are attempting it's getting blocked and deflected by their players.

 

[WingedWheel1987]

Sell. Sell. Sell.

 

[Wood Stick]

Game over.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

DK's attention to details is really one of his strong suits this year.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

I'm happy Neiderreiter found his game, because I was a huge fan in his draft year. I thought he was a bust for a while.

 

[rx7dryver]

Ddk leaving the passing lanes wide open.

 

[theYman]

Team is done. DK what a surprise. As always just stands there. Now we're starting to give up the first 2 goals now.

And spearing in the chest isn't a dirty ****ing play?

Didn't say that at all did I? He's frustrated, got crosschecked and made a stupid play. If you've ever played hockey you could understand how it could happen. He should've been kicked out of the game, instead he will get a game (should be 2 imo). Professionals should have control of their emotions regardless.

 

[theYman]

4-0 Minnesota

Well halfway there already.

 

[datsyukfan]

Shocker Dekeyser gets exposed

 

[AHall88]

And spearing in the chest isn't a dirty ****ing play?

Oh it was dirty as heck, but I bet you Spurgeon thinks twice before coming in with a crosscheck again, lol.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Another penalty. Geez.

 

[Heaton]

This team is so far away from being competitive with real teams it's scary.

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

Nyquist doesn't like being pushed around? Who would have thought?

Than be a man and drop the gloves or hit him hard open ice legally

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Granlund should have cashed that in. Dear lord this is ugly.

 

[BIGZ40]

Shocker Dekeyser gets exposed

Guy can't keep his stick down, never seems to be in position, and continues to get a ton of minutes... gotta love our head coach.

Sorry, I wasn't arguing... just that it's an unquestionably a dirty play no matter what he was thinking. I was picturing in my head him getting a phone call later tonight and saying "But I was only trying to spear him in the chest!", like that would get him in the clear.

 

[dragonballgtz]

Good luck the rest of the way Coreau, you gonna need it.

Ya he's brutal he's a #6 d-man

 

[BIGZ40]

AA has been atrocious on the pk. I love his speed, but he's chasing the puck a bit too much.

 

[SoupGuru]

Are you kidding me? There is no defenseman on this team that is better with his stick and positioning. Look, I know it sucks losing but let's not make things up.

It's a PK. Someone is always going to be open.

 

[SoupGuru]

God, that spear looks awful. Get that **** off my Red Wings.
