A2Y- Thinking Post Season

02/23/2023 at 6:30pm EST

Hiya everyone and welcome. The Wings are coming off a very successful road trip and need to keep this momentum going if they are even thinking about the post season, and, they are. For the first time in years it possibly/maybe could happen, so, every game is a big game. Larkin has been playing exceptionally well lately, and his play is contagious. Suter has been noticed out there as well. Vrana had his first game back against the Caps and looked to be alright out there, so, as of this writing, I’m not sure if he’s in or out for tonight’s match.

Tonight the Wings are facing a good Rangers team, and we owe them payback for the humiliating loss in November. The Wings are playing better hockey than we’re used to, and need a great game tonight. No moral victory will suffice.

It’s the Rangers vs the Wings. The puck drops 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+ and MSG.

Also, there will be no quick recap tonight unless Paul has the power back up and running.

It’s a Live Blog!

Thanks for the LB, Kate, and hope Paul can get electricity back soon.  People underestimate how critical that has become to survival.

The Boys are playing a much better February than I guessed that they would, well see how they finish out the month.

Howdy 19. Lets see if the home cooking helps or hurts us tonight. LGRW

I don't expect a win but am willing to entertain the thought. L.G.R.W.

Agree with Mickey on the full face mask with throat guard comment.  Another Yzerman or Malarchuck incident is inevitable

Kate

Copp! Bingo, bango, bingo!

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

PooBah is in the house. With no internet because Kalamazoo is basically on large pile of downed tree limbs wrapped in Spectrum cable. Not going to try and watch the game on my phone. Too tired to go to the bar. Next game. 

Cigar-Nurse

Copp scores with some wonderful passing to set it up. Way to go. 

Kate

What a character guy that Larkin is.

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Thanks Zadina. LGRW 

rwbill

Holy crap, just about gave it right back to them. 

rwbill

All I got from lip reading Lindgren was Fing mouth .

rwbill

This is what I said when Larkin did that.  I dont mind them calling that if they did it all the time.  They do not.

Kate

Dirty hit. Give em 5 and a game

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Cigar-Nurse

Just be consistent with a high stick to the head. 

Cigar-Nurse

Eff off Toronto. Double standards strike again. 

rwbill

Damn NYR keeping it in zone a long time.  Feels like a goal coming.  SWM.

rwbill

Sweet Sassy Molassy, Husso is keeping this lead for them.

Kate

Kate

These Wings need to regroup right now on the bench.

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

rwbill

Great bounce right back to Perron !  Boy did we need that.

Cigar-Nurse

Rasmussen goin to the net and gets rewarded. 

Kate

Drop the puck! Now!

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Calquakeold

Watch oot! The Wings are starting to look like a playoff team.

rwbill

If we can keep them from getting 3 more goals tonight weve got a real chance.

Cigar-Nurse

Yeah Hronek. Keep the skate to throat. LGRW 

KaszyckiandhisKrew

Kate

The Wings need to put on the stranglehold. Post haste.

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

rwbill

Wow, Caps getting busted again tonight 42.

rwbill

Will Berggren and Raymond have to earn their way back into the lineup?  Crazy.

Kate

WOW! WE WIN! And we beat what is considered a good team at that.

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

rwbill

What an effort.  Somehow survived that 2d period onslaught and kept the lead.

Calquakeold

Like someone said, "Who are these guys?" Later reprobates.

rwbill

I might even stick around and listen to Mick.  Hell be in a good mood.

Cigar-Nurse

Another unexpected impressive win. Keep er goin boys. 

Until Saturday, good night 19. All the best for you Michiganders hoping your weather improves and your power returns quickly.
