Terrible record against TB the last couple of season. I anticipate we play a decent game but fall short yet again.
8 points out of the wild card but there are about 7 other teams in the mix and with our never getting a run going over .500 we can't gain any ground.
Howard Starts
Nyquist-Booth (subbing for Zetterberg)-Mantha
Tatar-Larkin-Athanasiou
Helm-Nielsen-Abdelkader
Frk-Glendening-Bertuzzi
Kronwall-Green
Ericsson-Daley
DeKeyser-Jensen
Ouellet-Witkowski (extras)

I really dislike TBL, especially their arrogant coach. I also think we will play a decent game and as always Kucherov and/or Johnson will score on a PP.

AA is out sick tonight by the way. Sick of Blashill would be my first guess.

TB is not playing great hockey these days....
maybe ?
But yeah..this is probably the worst place/team to believe we have a chance to win...

If the Wings can win this one on the road against T.Bay and without AA in the lineup then maybe a late run is possible.
T-bay has owned the Wings but they have just lost to Buffalo so who knows.

We played hard anyways…but the skills was all on the blue side.
...and the strategy and game plan too.
Yeah ..don’t want to bang on Blashill’s head again but the structure of this team is sad to watch at times
But for some reason their was some intensity, certainly not because of the coach but mainly because of the pride that some have to wear that jersey…
Can’t wait for the TDL…This is getting sad to watch.

Jon Cooper -- "Some teams just have another team's number". I think that is fair to say after dropping 11 straight to TB that they have our number alright. Way too much skill to play against a goalie who puts up a .875 SV% performance. We had 39 shots...not many quality scoring chances but their guy stopped just about whatever we threw at him. On to back to back games Saturday and Sunday against Nashville and Toronto. I'll be happy with a single point of possible 4  We're a team in disarray, bring on Feb 26, fire sale purge whatever we can, fire the coach, hire outsider GM and coach and start rebuilding. The proverbial "Red Wing" way is not working and management needs to understand that we once were the gold standard that other orgs modeled and that is light yearsaway at the moment...we've been a crappy team for years now (yes, crappy teams can make the playoffs). We need to tweak how we operate and start a new game-plan for winning. The nucleolus is Larkin and build the team around him. Mantha and Athanasiou are the only keepers. I would be nice and better for the team if Hank and Kronner retired. They are last of old world Wings and nothing will change until they are not on the team. |
