Compete Level

I don’t think they’re better than Carolina or Tampa in the East, but I don’t think any of the other teams are clearly better than them.

Roster wise I think the Sabres are legit, especially on the back end. If Norris is healthy (nervous chuckle), their forwards sift out well and have scoring depth. Alex Lyon was my favorite Wings goalie post-Howard until they got Gibson and he seems like a great dude, but they have to be careful with...

Ah well nevertheless

That’s just Wings fandom right now, I have to avoid it completely after a loss. I’ve extended that to general hockey discussion too because The Athletic podcast guys are unbearable about the Wings (outside of Bultman). Detroit could’ve put more pressure on in the first half of the game, fell asleep ...

Drop Compher and Skinner ($7 hit this year)

Larkin and Askarov off IR

Welp

Yeah Larkin was busy getting headlocked for being near the net

Because he had Larkin in a headlock and was trying to wrestle him to the ice?

Big save on Stutzle

I didn’t get a good replay of the trip of Shine, but that Cousins crosscheck was 100% a penalty and basically stopped both teams from doing dumb shit after the whistle

That fucking post from JVR come on

The Grieg one that just happened

This PP stinks so far, I don’t know when they forgot how to enter the zone

Interference on noted piece of shit Ridly Grieg, Finnie off due to the concussion spotter

Tell me how that’s not a penalty

Wings PP but Finnie is down and the trainer is rushing out to him

Nine and a half left to tie it

Wings have flubbed a couple of two on ones tonight, waiting too long to try to make the pass

There’s one

Welcome back Dylan

Speaking of, Shine draws a call on a stretch pass from the Wings’ zone
