Beautiful game by the boys. Don't think you can play Tampa any better than that.

Great bounce-back performance by Mrazek. Great game Petr.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Bam. I think Mrazek just won himself the job for the near future.

 

[Flowah]

So guys, just hear me out.

We start Howard next game. We all know one way or another Mrazek is getting pulled next game. Either the team blows in front of him or he does or a combination of the two. Then we start Petr in game 5 for another dominant performance. EZ PZ.

Mrazek
Abby
I dunno... Glendening?

Abby was a force tonight. Hitting stuff left and right, fantastic vision on the second goal which was clearly a backbreaker in an otherwise way too close game. Allowed us to split Z/D and get 2 actual threats on the ice. Good for him.

But we did get pretty damn lucky tonight. How many posts/crossbars did they hit? 4? 5? Way too close.

 

[Crymson]

Well.

 

[KJoe88]

Where are the doom and gloomers?

Not here.

Excellent effort. And we can still be better.

Petr
Abby
Sheahan

LGRW!

 

[Vladdy84]

Great effort all around. Pretty much everyone played well. Kronwall, Big E and Zids were pretty meh.

 

[golffuul]

I voted for Mrazek, Abdelkader, and DeKeyser.

But an honorable mention has to go to the lady behind the Tampa bench, for distracting the Lightning players all game.

 

[The Geelee]

Excellent game and win. Tampa bay offense completely neutralized throughout the game. Another great game from Mrazek.

 

[H3ckt1k]

**** yes. Let's take it to them next game

 

[Heaton]

Mrazek, Abdelkader, Glendening, even Smith... great stuff.

Where are the doom and bloomers?

I hardly ever post on the Wings board anymore, but it's always been bi-polar. Either the team is unstoppable, or the team/coaches/goalies are laziest bums ever.

Although to be fair, the team has been bi-polar this year, and given how last year's playoffs went, I was a bit pleasantly surprised that shut TB out tonight.

Almost feel bad for Stevie in this homecoming. Almost.

 

[SimplySolace]

Where's that Tampa fan who said Petr wouldn't shut out Tampa for one period now?

 

[ap3x]

I predicted a 3-1, but I'll take that shutout. Great game overall. Came out good in the 3rd and played it down.
Good physicality tonight. They showed how to match up with the Bolts. Now just extend the lead on Thursday and everything's perfect.

 

[DRW204]

Impressed with Ferraro. Will he be a full timer next year?

 

[Goalie guy]

Abby-Mrazek-Glendening

 

[ArGarBarGar]

Bam. I think Mrazek just won himself the job for the near future.

Let's see him take care of business in game 4.

 

[Tasteslikekevinbacon]

Just went from Mrazek park to Mrazek world there.

 

[f1seb]

I predicted Bolts taking the series in 5. Oh well.

 

[Invictus12]

Huge win for us!

Still had a couple of lapses on defense though.

Tatar, Nyquist and Sheahan played really well!

Sheahan especially had an overall great game!

Abdelkader and Smith looked really good as well!

Zetterberg looked much better as well.


Datsyuk looked a bit off though. Think he's still injured.

 

[Vladdy84]

Impressed with Ferraro. Will he be a full timer next year?

Hard to say right now. Depends on who gets moved out (Weiss? Joker?) and who makes a push to make the team (Mantha, Pookie, AA, Cally etc.)

 

[DCHabitant]

Wow. Beautifully played game by the Wings. D was all over Bolts' forwards all game. Clinic on how to shut down Bolts' offense. (My Habs can learn something from this game. Read Babcock>>>Therrien.)

Hope Wings can do it again.

 

[Heaton]

So... Bishop isn't very good, Stamkos is being benched on the PP and with the net pulled. Not saying the Wings have this wrapped up, but are we really that huge of underdogs still?

 

[Laser Rayzor]

If they can play like that for the rest of the series they can win this and they won't even need Petr to be anything more than solid.

1) Petr
2) Abby
3) Dats
