lordstanley Posted March 22, 2024 Author Posted March 22, 2024 (edited) Oh my, horrible softie given up by Reimer. Tie game. Edited March 22, 2024 by lordstanley Quote
lordstanley Posted March 22, 2024 Author Posted March 22, 2024 (edited) Copp with easy tap in regains the lead. Then Larkin makes it 3-1! Edited March 22, 2024 by lordstanley Quote

I wish Lalonde would just rotate guys on a more regular schedule. Neither Reimer nor Lyon is such a good goalie that trying to "ride a hot hand" for many games in a row is a good idea. Just keep everyone rested and sharp. Quote

buddha Posted March 22, 2024 Posted March 22, 2024 all respect to dylan larkin, the straw that stirs this team's drink. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted March 22, 2024 Posted March 22, 2024 Edvinsson undefeated since his call up. Quote
lordstanley Posted March 22, 2024 Author Posted March 22, 2024 The Wings’ next win will match last year’s point total of 80. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted March 22, 2024 Posted March 22, 2024 Tonight's game may have saved the whole season, but based on tonight.................I know this won't happen because everyone is so stat-obsessed, but I think Dylan Larking should be on a short list for Hart Trophy finalists. Supposed to be for MVP, right? Most Valuable doesn't have to mean Best Stats. They have another award for that. He really is extremely valuable to this team. Tonight showed it. Tonight the team played at a different level. Quote

Hockey is still a sport poorly characterized by its measurements. Quote
buddha Posted March 22, 2024 Posted March 22, 2024 the sad part is, if larkin doesnt get hurt the wings are probably challenging the leafs for 3rd. Quote

Expand - he was on the ice for the 1st NYI goal but it was Petry that lost his man. When he goes to the boards with an opponent, he is already more likely to comes away with the puck than most Wing players. Quote
lordstanley Posted March 22, 2024 Author Posted March 22, 2024 Patty Waaah thought the Islanders deserved to win. 1 Quote
gehringer_2 Posted March 22, 2024 Posted March 22, 2024 (edited) I believe that as of the win last night the Wings playoff chances were still on the board at less than 50% so Roy isn't going to throw his team under the bus yet Edited March 22, 2024 by gehringer_2 Quote

lordstanley Posted March 23, 2024 Author Posted March 23, 2024 Win or lose, this is a much different (better) Wings team than the one that lost 7 straight. 0-0 after 2 Quote
lordstanley Posted March 23, 2024 Author Posted March 23, 2024 Heartbreaker goal with 5:13 to go after wild sequence. 1-0 Nashville final even though Wings played one of their better games Quote
lordstanley Posted March 23, 2024 Author Posted March 23, 2024 Wings did everything but tie it in final 2 minutes in 1-0 loss. If this was 20 games to go, I would say this effort is highly encouraging. But with only 11 games to go, points are king, no moral victories. If only the Wings D-man hadnt overskated the puck trying to carry it out of zone leading to only with just over 5 minutes left. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted March 23, 2024 Posted March 23, 2024 and Petry was close but just gave Forsberg too much room on the winner. Not wild about Petry and Chiarot as a pairing anyway. TBF, not really big on Petry with anyone as a pairing. Quote

I get Yzerman's desire to add enough experience to help lead this team into the playoffs... But for this team to grow, we need some kids to start taking over. And on the right-side... that's Tuomisto. I don't know where he is in NHL-readiness... But it looks like the is being defensively responsible in GR (28 points in 76 GR games, +14...), is a big 6'5" defensive dude... At the very least... I'm hoping he can take a spot away from Petry and/or Holl in the 2024-25 season. The sooner the better... Edited March 24, 2024 by 1984Echoes Quote
