Good thing I double checked the schedule, didn't know the game was on THIS early...

GO WINGS!!!

With the slowest skating defensemen in the entire league, another collapse just happened - from 2-0 to 2-2 - for two consecutive games.
Three things contributed to that issue:
1. We again missed far too many "easy" scoring chances by fanning on shots from ideal shooting areas.
2. The team stopped skating and turned on the "Lack of Pride" button.
3. The Swedes once again went into their "casual mode" dynamics.

Wings ID after 30 minutes of play today: Lazy, lazy, lazy!
Before we are going to be a team again, they must first find some pride in themselves, in the franchise, in the Wings tradition, and in the game itself. Some of these guys just don't seem to even know what that is.

Please get Kronwall off of the PP. He's totally incapable of holding the line. When the puck is sent out to the point, either it goes through his skates and down the ice or he has already bailed out of the zone because of his lack of speed.
