Leafs @ Wings - Mar. 18th, 7:30pm - SN, SN 590

[BlueWhiteBlood]

this is pathetic

Still one Phil Kessel shot away from a point.

Hey, that could pretty much be the teams slogan this year.

However, it is only a one goal game, surely not pathetic.

only a one goal game, surely not pathetic.

It's a one-goal game largely because of Reimer and luck. The Wings could have had 3 goals in the final minute or two of the period alone.

calling Joffrey Lupul

Yeah definitely, Reims has been very good, but as many chances as Detroit has had, they don't look particularly dangerous to me.

In the bigger picture going 2-3 on what was billed as the toughest road trip of the year (and probably was) would not be a disaster.  It's just frustrating when they keep giving glimpses of taking the next step and being a team that regularly wins the kind of game they were presented with tonight.  Instead they just struggle with the same old mistakes.

I don't know about that, but having like what, 5 NHL forwards dressed might do that I guess.

 

[hockeyfan1]

Somehow, I'm still optimistic.

Nyquist looks dangerous, Franzen at times. I think Howard has been pretty good also.

However, it is only a one goal game, surely not pathetic.

It's a one goal game against a team that has 12 guys that played in the AHL this season in the lineup tonight.

 

[ZBBM]

Ranger?  Gleason?  Which is worse tonight?

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Yeah, Nyquist is going to be a very good player for the Wings.

 

[Stronger Than All]

Bunch of clowns

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

Have we mentioned this Nyquist kid?

 

[bustaheims]

Nyquist getting lots of ice time against the Leafs more porous defencemen. First, Gleason and Franson, now Ranger.

 

[Sanecow]

He made that look easy.

 

[lamajama]

This team only wants to do it  the hard way

 

[bustaheims]

Phaneuf looks really hurt. So, umm, stuff.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

That's probably why you shouldn't play injured players.

 

[Stronger Than All]

Pretty sure thy want a wildcard and a date with Boston or Pittsburgh

 

[Strangelove]

Absolutely garbage play by Lupul on that goal. He's gotta start putting half an effort into his game.

Great shot, but given the angle, Reimer has that if he plays the angle right.

None of it will matter, however, unless the Leafs threaten to score a goal. Let's get our 10 point man back on the second line for some well earned minutes.
