..is evaluating who should be in goal this week-end..
Tough and critical decision..
PLAY COREAU !!!! GEEEEEZZ !!
Who cares ! Our Math teacher is probably the only on earth who still thinks we have a chance to make the playoffs.
anyways..
this is what our beloved coach has to say about his "tough" goalie decision for this week-end. Read and try not to laugh....
.........“We’re trying to win hockey games, here, right now,” Blashill said. “I certainly have belief in Jared Coreau as a good goalie. Jimmy Howard is a proven, very good NHL goalie. I’m going to put the lineup out there that gives us our best chance to win right now.
“We have life in us, fight in us. I’m not looking at it from a standpoint of anybody’s personal development. I’m looking at it as who do I put out there that gives us the best chance to win"........
Green back in practice today at BELFOR Training Center.
Mantha wearing the full face shield.
While Zetterberg and Green are practicing, Abdelkader and Tatar are not.
Mantha May have a facia fracture, going for second opinion, but will be able to play with the full face shield.

Not sure how he can call Howard a ...."proven, very good NHL goalie".... Looking at his career numbers he is an average NHL goalie at best.

I was just thinking on who was in goal during our last Stanley Cup win. Chris Osgood 10 years ago...damn did not realize its been that long. The following season we choked in the finals...down hill ever since!
Blash is a coach, he's not a good one but it is his job to coach to win so I don't expect him to do anything different. He can't see past 54 minutes of hockey (- starting on time, -falling asleep at period starts/ends)
I have zero expectations and an internal battle on wanting them to lose a bunch in a row so perhaps we can make a coaching change. I guess I've become a bad fan...wanting to lose now in hopes of Blas firing or getting stuck with that dick with ears behind the bench for another season. I used to schedule my personal time around Red Wing hockey and watched every single game...I've missed a handful of games this season where napping asn flipping through DirecTV channels wins over a Red Wing game.

I don't think the Wings choked in the finals. Datsyuk was injured and you could see he didn't have it in the last couple of games. Also we don't need to go into the Malkin not getting banned automatically for one game even though he fought at the end of game 2 which gives an automatic suspension. ( or not as per Bettman)

2 chances to close out the Penguins and we went 0-2. I'll agree to disagree...its a choke job in my book.
Nonetheless, the beginning of the end for Detroit Red Wing dynasty in my opinion anyway.

Maybe its my imagination but..i had a cam shot at the bench one moment, Z was on the bench up waiting, he turned barely turned around to look behind and jump on the ice. It look like he was deciding when he is going to play. Do we have a coach ?
