Welcome back to another LB. Tonight is all about stopping the losing streak the Wings have embarked upon, and, it won’t be easy a’tall. They are facing the Capitals in their own barn with Ovechkin looking to tie Gordie Howe’s record of 801 NHL goals. Mark and Marty Howe will be in attendance if #8 does in fact reach that feat.
I won’t dwell on the past 5 games because it won’t change a thing. I do think at times, well, most of the time, that the Wings have played above their real ability this season, and that makes for some exciting, enjoyable hockey. Even when they aren’t overachieving it’s been mostly fun to watch as well as entertaining, and so it goes. Such is the life of a Red Wings fan for the past 10 years or so.
Ville Husso will start again tonight, and, Jakub Vrana is still listed as day to day.
It’s the Wings vs the Capitals. 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+, NHLN, NBCSWA, and SN NOW.
It’s a Live Blog!
Gulitti correction,
Sorry,
Should be Erne-Copp-Raymond
Hi Kate, Not expecting much tonight. Hope I'm wrong.
Hi frog. Im always looking for that glimmer of hope like we all do around here. We shall see..
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Not only will the Wings lose but Ovie will score 2. L.G.R.W.
Hmmmmm Maybe yes, maybe no maybe, maybe😉
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
I'm basing that on the last 5 games. Hope I'm wrong.
Smith traded? Hmmm... soft, gettin' softer.
1-0 Perron.
Husso!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Perron!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Nice goal 57.
Paul Harvey eh? Ancient
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
So sick of all the gambling commercials.
Theyll be around for awhile, you can bet on that.
Its a sham. Er, uh, shame😉
Same difference.
I abhor those commercials. (No judgement on anyone who wants to gamble, BTW)
PooBah in the House!
Thanks Kate.
Perron!
Thank you PooBah😉
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Evening bitches.
Hey jeff, welcome.
Where ya been Jeff? Flying around?
Evenin Bitches!
Perron sure has a goal scoring instinct. Hope Vrana can come back healthy, they really havent had many natural scorers in recent years.
There's always Zadina. :)
Haha
MORE SHOOT!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Nick Jensen, eh? Carved out a nice career.
2-0 Sundqvist.
Sundqvist!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Sunny!!
Always Sunny!
Cant get espn+ tonight because its blocked out. But I dont mind the Caps broadcast, theyre always complimentary of the Wings.
Very true.
Berggren has been a pleasant surprise. Heck of a passer.
The thought of Berggren losing his spot to Zadina when the latter gets healthy is as much late Ken Holland as I can take in one night.
Another nail in the Zadina GR career.
Leaving someone alone in front of the net looked like something the Red Wings would do
SWM Murph!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Chintzy if you ask me.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Caps broadcast has the mcnugget minute in the bud lynch minute.
Need to kill this off at the end of the period.
I would leave a guy clamped to Ovechkins crank on that PP even leaving the other guys 4x3.
Sometimes these MoFos look like a darn effective team.
Id like to start tonight with the chimney jokes Ive got a stack of them.
The first one is on the house.
Youre really blowing smoke tonight Cal.
Hey degens. Nice catching up with yall on a week night for a change. Good start so far!
I told my friend 10 jokes to get him to laugh.
No pun in 10 did.
Espn corksuckers blackout bullsgit
Been there pal. Its bs.
Hell of a save on Johansson.
Husso!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Well this period is starting out pretty dicey. SWM.
As long as it doesn't come up snake eyes.
Better get settled down or this thing is gonna flip fast.
Husso!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
I havent heard Seiders name tonight.. Im thinking hes playing.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
This face off percentage has got to be fixed.
This is playing with Fire. Too many PPs to the Caps.
Yes-sir-eeee
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
The Caps broadcast has mentioned Seider and his big body a couple of times, Kate.
Yeah, I just saw him oot there.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Cool Hand needs to get oot of his funk. Put him with Berggren and Veleno.
I watched that movie on Saturday night. Timelessly great.
Mark Howe looks a lot like his Dad.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
poop
2-1 Lucky it's not worse.
Fuch!
Get it back!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
2-2 Yep. Here it comes.
Craptastic..
Lousy stick check by Cool Hand.
Holy crap the roof collapsed in a sudden.
Tanguay with the secret squirrel hidden microphone in his jacket sleeve.
He's just playing 'FBI Agent'.
We all know how Mantha fights. He usually breaks something on his own body
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Mantha wants to break his hand on Walmans helmet - lol
MORE SHOOT!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Game management.. Well take it
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
That was a huge dive by Ovechkin
We all know how Mantha fights.Does it rhyme with tusshy?
Pusshy?😄😄😄
Close enough.
Lucky Wash didnt post four in that period.
Indeed.
I guess lucky to be tied after two periods. Outshot 2-1, and outplayed.
I have two questions:
1.) Who else is watching on ESPN+?
2.) if yes, how tired are you of Johnny Depp and his sausage cologne commercials? Cuz I gotta say Im on the edge.
Im watching, but, no Johnny Depp. Bleu Channel parfum with drummer, Jimi Hendrix Fire
Well, at least you feel my pain lol.
I was thinking the same thing aboot Mantha breaking his hand in a fight.
3-2 Raymond.
Cool hand!
Cool Hand!
Cool Hand Lucas!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Yay Cool Hand Luke !!! Offset that first Caps goal he was a little pokey and hopey.
poop galore
Craptastic!
Well shit, I was just going to write I think the Wings will need 5 goals to win tonight cuz I think the Caps are going to get 2 more. There is 1 of them.
3-3 Didn't take long. Again.
Hola 19. Just got here to see us in a tie into the 3rd. Can we hold on ? LGRW
Whats up CN?
Mark Howe is great to listen to.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
The guys are too busy talking. How about that Seider hit?
Howdy Bez. Always good to have ya here.
Mark Howe was a high school dropout? Whoulda thought!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Husso!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Regret not meeting Travis Howe when he played here in Greenville a few years ago. Heard he was a down to earth guy who loved to talk while having some barley pops.
O.T. Lucky after being outshot.
OT
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
That was a cheek clencher. Big point. LGRW!
Well after the last half dozen games they really need 2 points, but 1 in DC isnt a bad showing.
Time to mine some diamonds. The hard way😉
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
One of these years we need to meet for a game in Washington with ya RW.
OH Jesus!! Icing !!!!
Aw shit Hronek had a great look.
No one on the broadcast noticed he got the cross bar.
CN Im aboot 2 hours south of DC and maybe 3 north of Raleigh.
Wow Husso
3-4 Final. Of course.
Next game folks.
OT poop
Damn. Well, Wings overachieved in this game. glad we didnt Ovie the record book.
I was yelling at Seider with 40 seconds left take it back and kill some time so they cant go the other way with it but they took it in to the zone to quick and gave it up. MoFo.
Erp. Silver lining, we got a point and kept Ovi from scoring.
We SUCK on defense. 41 shots allowed?
Later reprobates.
