Motor City Sonics Posted February 22 Posted February 22 (edited) 2 hours ago, lordstanley said: Good post. For all that state contributes at the high school and college level, it’s been pretty much dud at the NHL level. The Wild especially, as you noted. But even the North Stars, hard to think of anything memorable about them except the bright green jerseys and the Dino Ciccarelli-led run to the final one year. They had some good players Modano. We had some playoff battles with them. They were one of the Islanders victims one season. Made an unlikely run to lose to Mario in the finals in what, 92? I remember the anger when they were taken away I remember one year in the playoffs, Wings and Stars went to OT and we're all putting a dollar in on who would score the winner in OT and my friend's cousin just yells out YVES RACINE - who had 5 goals all year and a 33-game pointless streak. He took the kitty that night. One of the most brilliant calls ever. Almost as brilliant as my call in December 2004 as the Lions came back from 28-14 vs. the Vikings and as they scored to make it 28-27 I yelled out "They're gonna muff the snap". Yep.

buddha Posted February 22 Posted February 22 copp getting hurt sucks because it takes away one of their best defensive forwards AND it means more ice time for the human bad luck charm vladimir tarasenko. Quote
lordstanley Posted February 22 Author Posted February 22 Wild come back from 2-goal deficit, into OT now. Quote
buddha Posted February 22 Posted February 22 huge loss. and once again GUSTAFFSON ****S UP THE GAME AND LEADS TO THE GOAL. PLEASE CUT THIS MAN. THERE IS NO WAY THEY DONT HAVE A BETTER PLAYER IN THE MINORS. Quote
Sports_Freak Posted February 22 Posted February 22 Dang nab it. Release Tarasinko...or however the idiot spells his name. So useless.... Quote
buddha Posted February 22 Posted February 22 how good would the wings be if they had signed ANYONE OTHER THAN TARASENKO AND GUSTAFFSON THIS YEAR? 1 Quote

They didn't have the gas to pursue the puck at all short handed or at the end of the game generally. Did Kasper, Berggren or Veleno even dress for this game? Quote

THERE IS NO WAY THEY DONT HAVE A BETTER PLAYER IN THE MINORS. Tuomisto Buium Wallinder Take your pick. I don't know who may be truly ready to take on the NHL... rank them Tuomisto-Buium-Wallinder? Just as I have them listed? Plus Tuomisto is RH'ed... Quote
Shinzaki Posted February 23 Posted February 23 Kane largely floated out there today..seen enough of him as well Quote
lordstanley Posted February 23 Author Posted February 23 Washington, #1 in the conference but with no players at 4 Nations, came out of the break flying, blowing out Pittsburgh 8-3. New York Rangers, #11 in the conference and having sent 6 players to 4 Nations, got bombed 8-2 by Buffalo. Quote
lordstanley Posted February 23 Author Posted February 23 (edited) Flying start for the Wings against Anaheim with 3 goals in first 5:06 of the game. Now 3-1 after 1. Edited February 24 by lordstanley Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted February 24 Posted February 24 Okay, go beat the **** out of that guy. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted February 24 Posted February 24 This is ridiculous. DO YOUR ****ING JOBS, ZEBRAS ! Quote

Mr.TaterSalad Posted February 24 Posted February 24 What is wrong with this team? They can't hold a lead now? Quote
lordstanley Posted February 24 Author Posted February 24 (edited) Showtime saves the day! All’s well that ends well. Edited February 24 by lordstanley 1 Quote
Sports_Freak Posted February 24 Posted February 24 Thank goodness. Pistons and Wings both win at almost the same time. But giving away 2 goal leads back to back really sucks. Quote
