slothfacekilla Posted November 12, 2021 Posted November 12, 2021 Hronek just basically took a slap shot into the crowd trying to clear the puck on a penalty kill. Hit a woman (seemed like pretty hard) and took a penalty, yikes. Quote

sagnam Posted November 12, 2021 Posted November 12, 2021 They are not playing as bad as the 3rd period the other night but this game has just been the Wings unable to do anything. Quote
sagnam Posted November 12, 2021 Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) Shutout. By a 26 year old rookie goalie (first ever NHL game). This was a disaster. Edited November 12, 2021 by sagnam Quote

I disagree. I don't think it was a disaster. They played 'em tough. The game was never out of reach for the Wings and the Caps are a much better team. Can't win them all. Quote

And intelligent pacing is important in a hockey game and I think the way they opened the game dominating the play but unable to score led them to overextend themselves early and they got caught a little gassed when the Caps turned it on themselves later in the period and they couldn't answer. Once they were up by two the Caps bolted it down. Call it being rope-a-doped by a more experienced (and better overall) team. Edited November 13, 2021 by gehringer_2 Quote
