haters gonna hate, but clearly they're playing well.
Time for some kudos for coach Green?

What has been more surprising do you think...the play of Miller or the play of Myers?

I'm going with Miller, mostly because i honestly didn't know much about him.

- dbot


Myers has been the biggest surprise for me. He hasn’t had a bad game.

I’d put Tanev up there with pleasant surprises as well. He’s changed his game a lot playing with Hughes.

Who do you resign? Tanev, Markstrom, neither or both?

John Jang let go too. I think it is a big mistake.
- VANTEL


Jang was bad. They guy just rambles and is constantly getting called out for his terrible takes. Never want to see someone get fired (except Lui out of a cannon), but it doesn’t surprise me.

Well I’m glad I suck at game day predictions.

I have to disagree with a few comments tonight, I thought the team played quite well. Yes the opening line was bad and not ready to play the game tonight, but it didn’t take long to get into the rhythm of the game. They played quite well at 5v5, got two goals 5v5, not every shift is going to score. Tanev and Edler both played great, the entire defense played well. Demko played really good after being left hanging against Larkin. Guys were draped all over him and he held his composure and stopped the pucks.

Beagle and Schaller were beasts tonight, hope this continues all year. Erne is a coward, has Myers in a headlock and then fakes a dive when Myers lightly pops him.

- Makita


Even our boy Stecher, had a nice game. He and Benn have looked decent, in 4 of the 5 games.
Could be an interesting year.

Ya you do suck at predictions lol

Team looked pretty sloppy in the first period but got it together by the end of the frame. Defense looks good so far with the current pairings. 2nd and 3rd were pretty solid periods for the club.

Schaller is playing like he wants to stay especially on the defensive side. And a great effort by the Beags...as per the usual.

Well for all those taunts that JB traded a 1st for a bottom six player Miller sure is producing in all categories.
- NuckUp

Who said he was bottom six?

I just hated giving up a first round pick and still do.

Tanev has got to go at the trade deadline. Same with JV.

Ya, the team should trade their 2nd best defenseman, when battling for a playoff spot, makes sense.
JV isn't hurting the team at all, but, as a supporter of his and not his draft position I wouldn't be disappointed if he does get traded.

I intentionally left out several commas.😁

Speaking of not watching, I have not spent a second watching post season baseball. The only reason I know what’s going on is because of web page headlines.

Totally uninterested.

Great game last night - love seeing the Red Wings lose.
Pretty well balanced attack thru 5 games
Top 6 = 8 goals
Bot 6 = 3
D = 6

Not bad considering Bo, Ferland, Jake, Gaudette, Beagle, Schaller haven't scored yet

Trade for Pacioretty and it could be the lotto Max line.

Actually with you on this. Mostly because I don't give a sh*t about Houston, NY, STL or WAS. Could care less...as long as the Yankees lose all good.
