Good evening and welcome to one and all. I’ll just get right to it. The Wings blew a 2-0 lead the other night to extend the losing streak to 6 in a row. They were definitely out matched by a better team. Sure, there were some bright spots, but, the best part of that game was keeping Ovechkin from tying Gordie Howe’s record.(When playing against Howe’s team.)
Tonight the Lightning come to town looking for some pay back for sure. They come in after losing to the Leafs last night, but, that will only make them harder to play against IMO. I’m trying to not be a big downer here, but, it is what it is. Okay, trying to stay upbeat, there are positives here, somewhere. The Wings did win against the Lightning the last time we faced them, and, played probably the best game we’ve seen in a very long time. I’ll leave it at that…..
It’s the Lightning vs the Red Wings. The puck drops around 7:00 PM, and will be broadcast on Bally Sports Detroit Extra and the Red Wings Radio Network (97.1 The Ticket in Detroit). Also available on NHLPP/ESPN+ and BSSUN.
It’s a Live Blog!
Thank you Kate. I will try and pop in during the game. sorry I haven't been around for the blogs, too many things going on.
Be well and Merry Christmas!
Youre welcome dog. Its the most wonderful time of the year 😉
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Yep, it's another game. The few bright spots, in my eyes, are Berggren and Hronek. Husso deserves some praise also. The Wings are who I thought they were. A team with more talent that will win 5-6 more games than last year. The rebuild (Yzerplan) continues.
High praise for Husso. Hronek is playing up to his potential, and Berggren has been a pleasant surprise. Im hoping Cossa pans out for the Wings as well as Vasilevskiy has in Tampa.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Hola 19. I agree Cal. The only reason we are above Ottawa and Buffalo right now is having Husso vs their goalies.
Lets see how lone we stay in this game against a mad lightning team that lost bad yesterday and against us earlier this month. LGRW
early poop

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Big kill. Build on it boys.
Well we got one thing to cheer aboot.

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Mickey sounds exasperated with the lack of connection on the passing
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
I thought the same thing.
It's a process.
Zebras are awful!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
You gotta love hockey players. Just watching the Bolts player literally crawling to the bench after that shot went off his leg. Man, that was epic!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
1-1 Maata.
Hello Maata!
Maatta!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Ollie is jolly. Way to go.
Nice Santa reference CN.😉 Ready for the big freeze?
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Oh yeah. Picked up beer,cigars,and bogo kielbasa at Publix today.
How is Publix kielbasa? I have a few lbs in the freezer. Ill grab more on the bogo if you think its good.
Its called Holmes smokehouse. They are from Texas and it is as good as I can find for a commercial brand down here.
The Publix kielbasa is meh. Pretty bland.
1-2 Boo.
Great, more poop.
Craptastic! Get er back!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
2-2 Ras.
Ras!
Rasmussen!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Budd Lynch goal
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Nice comeback goal by Rasmussen in the Budd Lynch minute.
Four on foreplay!!
Ras has really grown into his role and become a solid NHL player.
That pass from Suter to' What's da Maata with you' on the first goal was sweet. I just saw the replay.
My daughter loves the Publix bogos in FL. I need to check for them more, although I do tend to get stuck in the deli and bakery section at Publix. They are evil.
We take advantage of the bogo a lot. They tend to run in cycles so we will wait em oot when they go on sale again.
Same here. Eight Oclock Coffee is my big bogo hoarding fav. Hazelnut.
Eww. Ill take the Italian dark roast.
Larks!
He heard you kate, shoot!!
D-Boss!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
3-2 Larks. It won't post for me.
poop,poop,poop
3-3 Erne turnover.
Way to go Larks.
Bah. Shake it oof Erne. Get one back kid.
Boooooo! Get er back!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Unfortunate for Erne.
Ugh, I was looking for a #snipshow image to celebrate that Larkin goal & they give it right back. Blame my hubris
Bad hubris! :)
Would like to see Kubalik get hot again.
Heck yes, please!
Indeed. Also Suter, just to pot a few
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Would like to see Copp get hot at all.
We need to win these faceoffs.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
It looks as if that is a lost art for this season.
Putting them on a power-play to start the third period. Thats not good.
Ras just needs a fight for a Gordie Howe hat trick, but i prefer he gets another goal
Husso!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Lurch!
Soderblom!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
4-3 Soderblom.
Elmer with a early Christmas gift. Keep er goin.
The large Bloom!

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
STFU Ken!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Jeebuz Ken! STFU!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Sutter quietly having a good game with limited minutes.
4-2 Larks X2.
Larks x2!
Larks x 2. Skate to throat now.
D Boss!!!
Is that new avatar Charles Atlas?
D-Boss!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Ras with a great forecheck caused the turnover
He's having a great game.
Rasmussen deserves an assist there. If it was Rosby, there would be no question.
Quite a period for the wings. Can they hold a2-goal lead in the 3rd?
like ET said, Ell-ee-ottt
Shutty..you know the drill😉
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Mixing it up. Thats good.
Seider kinda grabbed at the zebra.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Let's see...an assault on Seider so he should get two minutes for daring to stand up for himself. Maybe the refs might get this straight - nah!
Cynicism. I recognize that.
Wahoooo!! Getting physical!!!
Hair pulling bitchy Lightning player.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
TB moaning all game on all calls not goin their way.
Jeez -oh - petes dont let them bare in on the goalie and rip those shots .
Crapola
MoFo, trickled in off Husso.
5-4 cannot give up a softie.
Craptastic! Lock this down!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Blash says, See? I told you pulling the goalie with 4 minutes left is a good idea.
Erp. Diamond clenching time.
Great heads up and poise by Larkin !
Perron!
6-4 Empty netter for Perron.
Perron!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
With 2:33, this game is NOT OVER.
Shutty my Whore Mouth.
STFU Ken!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Ras!
7-4 another open netter Ras.
NOW this bitch is over !
NOW this bitch is done!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Rasmussen!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Perron with the ENG.
Rasmussen too with 2. That should do er.
Ill say again like I said earlier and last year, Rasmussen has really adjusted his game to become a dependable regular NHLer. That aint easy. Ask Zadina.
Ras had a great game!!!
Hooray! A win is a win. Later reprobates.
3 points against Caps and TB, taking that perspective its a good week so far lol.
HUGE WIN!
LETS GO RED WINGS!!!!!
See yall next game 19.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Merry Christmas all! The Wings gave us a great present.
Thank you Kate!
Merry Christmas Dawg to you and yours.
Merry Christmas dog.
Merry Christmas dog! Thank you for hanging oot tonight.
Rasmussen finally figuring to use his body instead of his reach. Elmer needs to do the same.
Good win that didnt look possible with a 1 nil deficit and a 5 on 3 2 minutes into the game.
Until Friday. Have a great night 19.
7-4 Final. Surprised by this one.
Jebus, Franco Harris dead. Makes one feel old. And vulnerable.
