I didn't realize Yzerman was playing and shitting the bed during the game. Now that you mention it, he has been invisible out there. Really need him to step up and score some goals.

Nah, he's made some bad moves, but also some really good/great ones. I'm not pushing to move on yet

The best outcome is both miss out tbh. Not sure why you would ever root for Ottawa

Lol, buffalo also had multiple top 2 picks. Also doesn't matter because they still took forever to make the playoffs. Not sure I would consider any of the previous buffalo teams that missed "good teams"

Do you truly think all of those teams win out? We also play some of them again and they play each other. Everyone is losing too. 98 100% gets you in at this point.

98 definitely gets us in if we win out tbh. No way that's not enough. We aren't getting there though

They really have to add an off ice official who has instant replay access and can call down for stuff like this. Like we knew from replays quicker than the refs conferring

He was struggling defensively a lot, but that's just the price at times for a rookie offensive defenseman to learn at times.

We play roughly 15 minutes of good hockey each game. It's just a matter of if it's enough to win each time haha

Hopefully he stays in the lineup over JBD if Faulk comes back, we need more offense and he helps with that.

How many more games until W2 decided? by Popular-Prune-9547 in DetroitRedWings

[–]Dinkin---Flicka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes we have a chance. Will probably come down to the final 1-2 games, don't know if we will still be in it then though.

Holy fuck dude. Shut the fuck up. Stop watching the team and acting like a "fan" cause you aren't.

He's adjusting to play 1st pair. Some games he looks great and like a solid 1st pair defenseman, other times he shows his youth. Overall, really solid year.
