November 2023 Games

[lordstanley]

Bizarre ending as Stutzle bats one out of air and into net with 2 seconds left in OT.

Not sure what Reimer was ducking from - maybe Stutzle’s follow through? His head nod made it clear sailing for the puck to go In.

I think it's just the natural reaction of trying to avoid something heading right for your face.  I've seen goalies react like that before.

Lyon starting tomorrow. Maybe I haven't been paying close enough attention - something up with Husso?

More likely his wife. But otherwise correct.

The Red Wing goals called by Ken & Mickey today, for those of you who missed it while working. Only bums and n'er do wells watch Day Hockey. The Red Wings were recipients of lucky bounces on the 2nd and 4th goals so I guess I can't complain about Ottawa's winner.

Just saw Reimer duck out of the way of the puck and as a former goalie I am shaking my head......we have to be crazy enough to put our head in front of the puck on purpose!

Reimer has played as well as I would have expected from him, but I can offhand think of 5 oddball goals he has given up.

30 min TOI for Seider on the front of a back to back? Really?

Petry - 3 in 14 min? Are these things related?

Back at it right now against the Leafs. 

[lordstanley]

Pretty solid opening period for the Wings. 0-0, held Toronto to 5 shots. 
 

[lordstanley]

TSN colour commentator: “The Leafs, right now, are kind of looking for a defenseman like Justin Holl”. 

[lordstanley]

Wings 2 of their last 39 on the powerplay.

Larkin and DeBrincat have sort of disappeared. If I had to guess., it would be that Larkin is still having issues from the shot he took in the back.

Calle Jarnkrok is on the Leafs. Hard to believe it has been 13 years since Wings drafted him in 2nd year. Has carved out a decent career. Has never had a 40-point season  but has stuck around for 662 career games 

[lordstanley]

2-0 after 2. Considering the opposition, and that it’s a back to back, and 3rd string goalie in net, this is one of the Wings’ best efforts of the season.

what a shot.

[lordstanley]

Crap, Bertuzzi gets the Leafs back in it. 

[lordstanley]

9 minutes might be a long time for the Wings to “hang on” to a 2-1 lead. 

[lordstanley]

First two periods were too good to be true. Wings now look headed for a loss! 3-2 Leafs with under 5 to go. 

[lordstanley]

3-2 regulation loss. Sucky. I usually feel better this on a Friday afternoon starting the weekend. 

[MIguy]

Going into the third, it just felt like the Leafs were going to make a run.  Wings just seem like they never play a full three periods of any game.
