You heard it from the man (not famous  ) first ! Should we find anything to say about this one ?.. i can't...well we will see a goalie in our net...won't change a thing….we will see some forwards skating around but they won't touch the puck… other than that..nothing...only one thing ! HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!! May the Wings be bless with a new coach in 2020 ! |

This should be a good game as San Jose is almost as bad as we are  |

Best prediction made on this board all year, Pierre !
Foe 2020 new coach and let the kids play. Get rid of the dead weight people have mentioned. If we need bodies to round out the roster the only 2 I would consider keeping are Helm and Glenny. The rest, Abby, Nielson, et al - they all can GO

Glad to see Bernier get the shutout as he earned it these last two games we had great goaltending. We played some decent hockey and goaltending led to that. No team wins without defense and goaltending. Perhaps this area is what we need to focus on, not flash and dash as we're not scoring in bunches. The Wings org grossly underestimated what happened when #5 retired. I'm changing the approach and make goaltending and upper echelon defenseman a priority  Since we can't score anyway we may as well limit the number of goals against. Hell, try some semi left wing lock or trapping ugly hockey. Relentless pursuit of the puck on the forecheck and staying on them like flies on stink. They're not going to score from their own end unless Jimmy Howard is playing lol. Happy New Year boys! I'll be watching the Winter Classic from Dallas's Cotton Bowl in 60 degree weather...Winter my ass |

That's what happening when our two liabilities on defense are out (Green and AA)we play good defense ! Not a single odd man rush, coverage in our zone was great, and Bernier is gaining confidence.
And Lil Bert with his golden stick again ! Kudos to him for being better than expected, specially with his limited abilities. It tells you that with hard work the sky is the limit !..and i love when got involved in a little scrum with Hronek behind the net. Lil Bert needs to play that style of game to be effective. Play tough but pick your time.
Good performance. At least sometimes we can win games !..
NB Pleast Don't vote for Larks...he needs the rest. Tonight, at times he look tire.
And i think we should keep Smith around..he won't score much but he is a typical 4th liner that can play tough sometimes. We need that.
