Anything Can Happen

The Wings are coming off their first win of the season, and, every one is happy plus surprised. Not just the fans either. Per Larkin after the game Saturday night;
“I just felt a calmness from a lot of the new guys that we’re just going to keep going, we’re not going to get frustrated,” Larkin said.
Hearing him say that after the game was encouraging. I would dare to say hopeful, for the fans that have had to endure some really bad hockey for quite a while. Keeping that in mind, in this shortened season, anything can happen.

PooBah in the House!

I was afraid of this when they said Stall wouldn’t play the last game. I hope it doesn’t go through the team.

These guys need to quit giving away the puck, too many, And what’s with the not shooting, com on someone tell these guys to shoot, that’s what we want to see, I mean why com out in warmup shooting pucks and play a stinking passing game. Start shooting. Rasmussen gets in a rare game a chance to shoot on a two on one and he passes. Come on useless coaches think shoot first pass second.

And here I thought Time was A cruel master. Go figure.

Ah, that’s why Merrill is on the Power Play. To make sure we don’t get scored on.
