What To Think?

10/17/2022 at 6:30pm EDT

I’m just like all Wings fans right now. Only two games into this season and I’m not sure what to think. The atmosphere on the ice is calm and collected, and we see the coaching staff making adjustments throughout the game. It’s noticeably different from what we’ve been watching these past few seasons so, no complaints. Just hope for the best as usual, and try not to get our hopes up too high, too soon.

Bert is out for a while, and hopefully this newfound depth will sustain the team as far as goals, and, grit. Vrana has the night off for personal reasons, and Zadina is back in.

Congratulations are in order for former Red Wing, #15 Paul Woods aka Woodsie, who will be celebrating game #3000 in the booth tonight. It’s a big deal.

It’s Kings vs Wings. The puck drops at 7 PM, and will be broadcast on Bally Sports Detroit and the Red Wings Radio Network (97.1 The Ticket in Detroit). Also watch on NHLPP/ESPN+

It’s a Live Blog!

Kate

LA announcers talking about Lalonde, saying he's won everywhere he has been. LOL

Royal Grand Exalted PooBah

Red Wings are going UNDEFEATED!

rwbill

Evenin Bitches!  Got in from pickleball and showered and caught up to live play.  By unofficial count, nine goals by nine different players.

RorSchach

Wings getting outworked! Need to fix that.

damndogrevenge

Some sloppy play but they can fix that

rwbill

Jonathan is 36 ?  He got old Quick.   

Cigar-Nurse

Soderbaum with some Dats like magic. 

bezukov

Decent looking power play this time. 

rwbill

That was some good puck movement, bitches!

rwbill

Hes the only Wing with two goals.  Hes got a pair on.   Apologies to any French speakers.

nctheo

I think Perron's shot is pretty good. Haven't seen many RH shots like that around here in a while.

Cigar-Nurse

Perron. There ya go.  Kubilik fanning got us that one.  

Gabriel

Ho-lee crap...Kate, Calquake, Cigar Nurse, RWBill. You guys are still here. I'm....there's something in my eye...

Cigar-Nurse

Gabe.  Whoo its been a long time. Come on in for a spell. 

Kate

Its hockey for pucks sake.

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

RorSchach

Husso got some holes going on there. Boo.

Kate

What a dive.. 😠

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

rwbill

Gabe had one of the most memorable lines in the history of A2Y.  After the glorious A2Y season of 2008 that mirrored the Stanley Cup season, during the live blog of the parade through Detroit that would probably be the last live blog for 3 months, Gabe wrote This feels like the last day of school.  It did indeed, and a memorable A2Y moment.

nctheo

Is it Husso? Or is it DRW getting owned by the Kings in the neutral zone. Terrible transition game so far. 

Katenctheo

Agreed. Hope they can pick it up in the third.

All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
