A2Y- Push Back Hard

02/28/2023 at 6:30pm EST

Hiya and welcome back to all. Last night sucked. The Wings were too soft. Ouch! I know that’s the way they’re built for now, but, more than one person has to step up like they mostly have been doing of late, and push back hard. Yzerman knows he still needs a couple of grinders that intimidate as well.

In good news, Jake Walman signed for 3 more years. Good move by SY.

It’s the Wings vs the Sens. The puck is set to drop around 7:00 PM and will be broadcast on Bally Sports Detroit and the Red Wings Radio Network (97.1 The Ticket in Detroit) Also available on NHLPP/ESPN+, RDS, and TSN5.

It’s a Live Blog!

Howdy Kate and fellow reprobates. I'm here... for now. Power has been off and on a couple of times today. The new storm will start in aboot an hour. Time for payback tonight as long as we don't get the 3 Stooges referees. Bez said it best yesterday, someone needs to shut Brady Stupidfucks mouth. L.G.R.W.

KateCalquake

It’s great to have you here Quaker. Payback indeed.

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

The officiating last night reminded me of the SCF's in 2009. Disgusting. One of the worst this year for sure. If the Red Wings lose tonight, Steve may be a seller by Friday's trade deadline. He could wait depending what happens after Thursday's game against Seattle.

rwbill

Evenin’ Bitches!

Thanks for the setup Paul and Kate.

Hope you can keep power, cal, up there in The Cabin in The Woods.

Need a big game from Husso.

rwbill

Man this series is going full on ECHL.

Kate

The zebras better get control of this game.

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Kate

The zebras are assclowns…. 🤡

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

rwbill

Still trying to justify a penalty shot.

rwbill

Lalonde said they have to stay oot of the penalty box.  Instead it’s looking like an ECHL grudge match.

bigfrog

The officiating is already much worse than last night already. Again just disgusting.

Cigar-Nurse

Hola 19. Refs look like second verse same as the first. Good to see some snarl tonight.  LGRW 

P.S. Hang in there Cal. 

bigfrog

1-2 Bad give away. S.H. goal. Looks like another loss is brewing.

rwbill

Good freaking mother of st barnaby.  

Calquake

Another stupid back pass to nobody. poop

damndogrevengeCalquake

Hi all


Hronek with the cute pass for a shortie. Why hasn't this been eliminated from the toolbox?


Kate

Ughhhhh! 
Payback, remember? 
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Cigar-Nurse

FFS. Now a shortie to go with a BS penalty shot. 

Get your poop in a group on-da-lay.  

Kate

What’s with all the going right down Main St. ? So many breaks tonight. For Ottawa..

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

bigfrog

1-3 Another loss on the way. Plus Ottawa player cut by Perron. Yippee.

Kate

So another goal and probably a 5 minute major on Detroit…..

rwbill

Sweet Sassy Molassy, down 3-1 and 2 minute minor coming.

rwbill

Sweet Sassy Molassy, down 3-1 and 4 minute minor coming.

bigfrog

Royal Grand Exalted PooBah

Shut the f*^% up Ken

Calquake

This game is over. Not a playoff caliber team.

Calquake

Not to overly complain Paul but this new version has more glitches than my first marriage.

Calquake

just to let y'all know I haven't lost my sense of humor: I used to work at an orange juice factory. I got fired because I couldn't concentrate.

Cigar-Nurse

Well that period checked all the boxes of what not to do tonight.  Now let’s see if They are going to have a pity party or focus on getting back into this game. 

Calquake

There has to be changes made in the off-season. Like you said CN, too much finesse not enough grit.

Kate

And I just can’t believe this is only the beginning of the second period…… Jeebuz Christo!

Calquake

Maybe I'll just sit back and enjoy the storm. Wait... what?

rwbill

Larkin taking out 2 nights of frustration.  It’s only 5-1 now.

rwbill

Well now it’s 3/6 over, and it’s gotten worse.

Calquake

My fav new commercial, Wendy's I... I should just... stop.

rwbill

With things already this disturbing and pissy tonight I may as well watch some Vietnam War documentary.

rwbill

Series running total 11-3.  Good thing there’s a cap of only 4 points lost.

rwbill

Having 4 games in hand means a more compressed schedule.

Cigar-Nurse

Still trying for the perfect pass to shot.  

There’s another one.  The Canadian broadcasters bragging that the score is like a tennis match.  Eff them. 

Cigar-Nurse

Fabbri gets a game misconduct for what? 

rwbill

Four on Foreplay!

Aww, it ain’t even funny tonight.

rwbill

They don’t have an Aaron Downey kind of player.  Probably not worth the salary to carry on the team most nights.

Calquake

Wonder if Jake is thinking, "What have I done?".

rwbillCalquake

He turned 27 last week and just signed a contract for $10,000,000.  He’s probably ok. 

He was born in 1996 !  Jebus that’s young.   I was already old in 1996.

Calquake

At least Seider is showing some heart.

rwbill

Ottawa jumps Detroit in the standings.  Same points, same games, 1 more Regulation Win.

rwbill

Well that blew and sucked at the same time.  Next game?
