GDT - WCSF Game 2: Red Wings (0-1) at Hawks (1-0) 1:00

05/18/2013 at 9:40am EDT

Matinee tilt today boys and girls. Captain Obvious, reiterating his comment from the LB: "Color me pessimistic, but after the 1st period, I kinda thought DET got taken to the woodshed. But for Jimmy, it’d been a whole lot worse."

Seems I'm not the only to notice that fact: Babcock said it boils down to this: His team didn't skate. “If you don't skate better, you have no chance,'' he said. “We were very poor, we didn't execute at all, we didn't skate, so we're all spread out. There was no one for the D to pass to. We didn't play fast. We played fine in the first 20 minutes, after that we got skated into the ice.''

CHI have won 8 straight - - DET are due, right? LGRW
