  1. The Wings have talented players. They've shown moements of absolute brilliance. They've shut down teams and had shutouts. The powerplay can do serious damage and the kill was good weeks ago. The only link that hasnt shined is the coach. He cant motivate his team. He cant find lines that work. He spent far too long on Husso. At this point, he's the issue in my eyes.

  2. If Iā€™m Stevie Y Iā€™m taking a long look at the coach right now. Guy canā€™t get this team going at all. Need someone with some emotion!

  3. Problem with the wings is the same that's happening to a lot of teams, poor defense, poor goaltending. but getting good defensemen or goaltenders is difficult, especially that they are in such high demand. The game has really changed, the teams that are dominating atm have some of the best defensemen in the language, with this offensive defensemen strategies that payoff. Wings have the same issue as Toronto, they are stacking all their chips in their forward lineup, that only goes so far, and the wings don't have the same talented forwards as Toronto, nor should they. They need to be looking for a trade for a top tier defensemen, and a better goalie.

  4. You can add a player like Kane, and even if he produces itā€™s still possible he made your team worse. There are metrics that arenā€™t tracked by sports journalists. For example, if you put two 50 goal scorers on a team, you donā€™t automatically end up with 100 goals. Because there are only so many powerplay chances, and 5v5 chances (the natural push and pull of momentum in games). Opponents will naturally play harder when theyā€™re behind etc. So what happens is Kane scores 30, but the other guys on the team get -30 on the year. Or, for all we know, -40 on the year and your offence is -10. And this canā€™t be tracked but itā€™s very real. Whatā€™s the dynamic of the offence, who is quarterbacking it, and was it better than it was before??

  5. "How the mighty are fallen!" II Sam 1:25. Jets are playing well, but the Wings looked more like a Paul McCartney band than a hockey team.

  6. This Wings team is sooo painful to watch!! Yes the goaltending has been subpar, but the defensive play of the guys on the ice has been totally nonexistent!! If youā€™re not going to play any type of defense then you better out score them! Fā€™ing embarassing!!
