Wings-Nucks GNT

That counts, methinks.

Looks like a good goal, off the hip.

Or slipping on ice.

And if Keatings bothers you, be glad Micky Redmond didn't make the trip.

I like Redmond, and he did make the trip... I was just wondering about that, didn't he used to not do any of the long West coast road trips? I thought he had some health problems and that's why Murphy took over for a lot of the road games, but now Murphy is in the studio and Redmond is out in Vancouver.

Must be getting some of that sweet Vancouver dank.

Chang, how's your project going? Weren't you working on a chain mail Red Wings flag or something?

Boom, Kronwall!

All of a sudden, it's 2-1 Wings (Kronwall)

Sammy pops the water bottle (nice tip)

2-2

 

[naslundfan19]

Sammy needed that!

Datsyuk's moves are just sick.

 

[naslundfan19]

Zetterberg's as well.

Datsyuk's moves are just sick.

He likes to dangle, dangle...

 

[Eddie_Shack]

We got a little scrap... Ballard got the better of Adderoleater, but it was mostly just seatbelting. I wonder if Justin is going to be the Visor-Clad Warrior for the rest of his fighting career?

 

[Eddie_Shack]

Zetterberg's as well.

Zetterberg is amazing at protecting the puck, making passes, picking his shots, and keeping possession while being dogged by defenders.

Datsyuk is just plain in his own league. He might not be as clutch as Zetterberg, he might not be as good of a goal scorer, or as tough to knock off the puck... IF you can knock him. But he's as easy to run into as a shadow, and he can stick handle through a crowded phone booth, make a call with no quarters, and leave with everyone's wallet without even being touched.

I've been watching both since they've come into the league... I don't know which one I would choose if I was starting a team, but Datsyuk does stuff during games that Zetterberg can't do in practice.

 

[naslundfan19]

18th straight kill for the Nucks.

 

[Eddie_Shack]

Two best penalty killing teams in the league. Time to put it to the test.

 

[naslundfan19]

Raffi, gotta be smarter than that.

 

[naslundfan19]

Opening up now

 

[dash]

Any Wings fans surprised Salei chose #24? I thought that number might be unofficially retired by Detroit.

 

[naslundfan19]

Ping!

Manny being Maholtra makes it 3-2 with a shortie...

 

[IPostedWhat]

Great play and a great SH goal right there for Manny.
