He just busted his butt!!

Which position did Jake Butt play at Michigan?

You guessed it. Tight End.

That was a beautiful one timer. I can't fault Howard too much on that.

It was a good shot but Howard wasn't even close to being square with the shooter. Going to be need Howard to be on his A game for the wings to have a chance in this series

Ice must not be good. Players falling down everywhere

Especially towards the end of this period.

Penalty Detroit. 9 seconds left in the period.

That was one of the quickest periods I can remember. The game started at about 7:15 if I recall correctly.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Going to be 4-on-4 to start the second period.

I agree with that.

 

[sherbert1421]

wings dominated possession but not much happening in the offensive zone. need to get to the net more

That goal hit the bar in the back of the net. It wasn't a well placed shot. That's not a real criticism of the shot - it's a freaking one timer, you don't put them on a dime, but Howard's gotta at least be between the shooter and the net.

Yeah not much going in second chances. Pretty much one shot and done.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Both teams now 0-for-2 on the powerplay with 36 seconds total for each team.

 

[sherbert1421]

Green!

 

[postmaster]

Wooooo! And off a faceoff win.

 

[Wingingit]

Green ties this up

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

RED WINGS SCORE!

TIE GAME 1-1​

Tampa smoking us in the faceoff circle, Detroit largely carrying the play but not getting any second-chance shots.
