Wings vs. Ducks - Round 1 Game 1
Puck is about to drop. Can the Wings continue the ride? Can Howard continue to stand on his head? Time to find out.
My only hope is that I will be able to function completely tomorrow after watching the game. "Enjoy" the last playoffs with these ever-so-frequent late ass starts.

Can't watch but listening on nhl.com.
This sounds horrible, haven't got a shot this period but just got on the power play.

ericsson has fanned on so many pucks tonight
Need to establish that speed on the forecheck that we had in the 1st and get some pressure on their defense. Anaheim has flipped this game around and we've allowed it to happen. ENOUGH FUCKING PENALTIES.
Shat
I'm sick and tired of Teemu, retire now please.
hiller is playing well
I hate games like this...so many chances and can't get one to go.
the Ducks scored two goals on the power play and an empty net from 90 feet, reading this thread makes me think the Wings had absolutely no business being in the same building as Anaheim.
Get a grip man.
Agreed. Super flat and lost every battle in the 2nd but first playoff game for a bunch...Andersson, Brunner, Deykeyser, Smith. I'd expect game two to play out a bit more even, playoff hockey tends to swallow up newcomers. Ducks have a pretty experienced squad and it showed, especially on the PP unit.
for the Wings, we are pretty young right now, which is good, great experience for these guys. Its only going to get better from here for the Wings and these young guys. Looks promising.
Also, Deykeyser is the next star for the Wings, he is so freaking good for how new he is to the league. I now can see why every team wanted this kid. SOOOO glad we signed him.
watching the game, the Ducks looked more crisp with the passing and forechecking, in that sense they were in more control of the game. Wings were a notch below them but we played sloppy yesterday. Clean it up and we can beat them like we did during the season. I still think it goes 7.
Dont listen to all these haters........Babcock always gets the guys cranked up when the time is needed.
Go Wings!
1. Eff Teemu, always been a thorn in the Wings side...gotta respect his career though, 42 and skating with 20 year olds..pretty impressive
2. Clean up the passing and we will be fine
3. Bertuzzi, where are you?
