I don’t know what they’d challenge if that’s what they’re debating with this timeout

Gibson with a big save on a Cozens breakaway, that’s the sort of stop he hasn’t made as much

what is a "save"? I feel like I used to know what that was, haven't seen them this year

Man the Wings are lucky not to be down 3-1

McLellan should hit the line blender again because these aren’t working

Perron slew-foots Appleton, Mickey thinks unintentionally, but he definitely went down hard

Is it mostly the goaltending? They’re not out of the mix by any means

It is pretty comical how much better they’ve looked than Detroit this period vs. the score

Probably the biggest factor has been goaltending. They have the worst (Ullmark) and 3rd last (Merilainen) goalies in goals saved above expected.

But they also kinda get into this a lot where they have a lot of great chances and no lethal finishers? Cozens has to bury ONE of those two chances, for example.

Too Much Air on Chiarot

Would prefer not to give up one in the last few minutes


I assume McLellan will tear into them between periods

Giroux spins off Larkin to get free in front and cuts it to 3-1

Stutzle got hurt because he crosschecked Kasper out of the way and then took a puck to the chest
