Yes. And "the National League", "a 4 point game", "from the old school" and "Katy bar the door". I was confused by a 4 point game, I thought he meant the Wings would get double the normal points if they won that night. When he just meant that you'd not only get 2 points but prevent a close rival from getting 2 points. Plus I thought "old school" was an actual building where veteran players and coaches would go in the summer, like a hockey camp, lol. As much as guys like us got our share of Red Wings glory in the '90s and '00s, I have to keep in mind that a student graduating college this year was only 5 years old when the Wings last won the Cup and so a whole generation doesn't remember the Wings being great year in year out.

Final, WIngs win (edit: 38 seconds to go). 5 point night for Kane, 2G 3A. Four points for DeB and 3 points for Kasper.

Kane’s 2nd power play goal makes it 5-3 Wings early in 3rd.

DeBrincat takes a double minor late in the 2nd and the Sabres score to close to 4-3

Correct. A best of 3 against Atlanta, Game 2 was at the Olympia and was a rare televised home game. Lochead deked the goalie and tapped it in on the way by the net. Have never heard Bruce Martyn more excited. For years I considered that the biggest highlight since being a Wings fan.

Ha!

The Wings made the playoffs in 1970 and 1978 and 1984. This is the longest. Although missing the playoffs so many times from 1971-1983 was hard to do when almost every team made it in back then.

That was a nice 3-goal burst but sucks to give up the 2nd Buffalo goal immediately.

And here are his Edmonton drafts.

Jacob Trouba scored a goal last night! It was his first of the year. 1 G 12A in 63 games this season for two teams. I know points scored isn’t the be all and end all for defensemen, but still.

I can’t wait for a #58 overall pick of Yzerman to approach 500 NHL career games and record four 20+ goal seasons including 30 goals once. Doubt it will be 2019 or 2020’s 2nd round forwards Mastrosimone, Niederbach, or Hanas.

Yeah, it hasn’t been a total collapse in play like it was during last year’s 7 gamer. Clunker hosting Columbus, nice comeback at Columbus that should have gotten at least a point, clunker hosting Carolina, good 1st period but then fell off hosting Utah, good first two periods but then fell apart at Washington, played well enough last night in Ottawa to get at least a point. So 1-4-1 would probably have been a fairer representation of their play than 0-6-0. But even with those extra 3 points they’d still be in precarious position.

Puck was well past the red line with 4.5 seconds to go. Why didn’t McLelland argue for more time.

Wings “score” a split second after time expires. Funny, I thought the clock after icing should have had more than 3 seconds on it. https://x.com/shaynagoldman_/status/1899284376153669897?s=61&t=don8lQTnTq5FKXq14p2GMw

Sens convert 12 seconds in. Of course.

Raymond robbed! And now Seider sent to the box for dubious reason.

Wings playing with some urgency. The Larkin tying goal probably should have been stopped.

Ottawa ahead 1-0 after 2. If the Wings lose tonight, even in overtime, they’d be 4 pts out of the playoffs having played one more game than Columbus and Ottawa

A lot of chances for the Wings on that powerplay - after giving up a 2 on it 1 early in it - but still 1-0 Ottawa. Wings outshooting Sens 34-18 and have had a whopping 25 shots in the 2nd period.

Why not start Mrazek tonight?

0-0 late in the 1st. Wings just missed chance after a nice setup by Larkin.

But I am getting the game on Amazon Prime, with massive closed captions that I didn’t ask for and haven’t yet been able to turn off.

5 Red Wings games, 10 Tigers games. https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/red-wings-announce-plans-five-143718184.html
