Andrew Copp, Ben Chiarot and Derek Lalonde comment following DET vs FLA
Andrew Copp, Ben Chiarot and Derek Lalonde speak with the media following Detroit’s game against the Florida Panthers on Friday January 6, 2023 at Little Caesars Arena.
I have a question that I need to know anyone can awnser it cause all I need to know is who is our special teams coach ,just let me know so I can continue with what Iām doing
Alex Tanguay is on the hot seat in my opinion. At some point, special teams need to pick up. We saw a little improvement when he got here and Blash was still here, but it has not picked up since, and clearly itās losing us games right now.
Rasmussen is a 3rd liner at best. I get the concept but you add Perron who's slow and then Larkin who basically has to do it all and you've got an easy puzzle for opposing teams to figure out. All those games we should've won in the beginning of the season is costing us now, Chicago, Montreal, etc. The injuries, the experimenting with lines has all lead to 5v5 play good enough but the powerplay being consistently bad counteracts the 5v5 play and is a recipe for an inevitable disaster that im sure even somw average fans could see coming… Which by the way at this point has ultimately lead to the penalty kill being bad. They need to figure out their line up and who's who. Kubalik 4th line, 2nd powerplay? Rasmussen 1st line, 1st powerplay? I mean I could tell everyone the appropriate lines in general but I honestly don't even feel like it. The new system, Alex tanguays God awful powerplay scheme. Yall need to watch the games from our perspective and not just our games but the rest of the leagues games too cause you're not and you're video coach is trash for not being able to direct and recognize these problems in real time from the booth and it is showing BIG TIME. I'm gonna sit back and watch this team burn itself to the ground and I'm going to enjoy it when this next draft and off season comes around. Im tired of fragile players and no hitting on the dump and chase system thats based around hitting(specifically in the nuetral zone, so we maintain puck possession at KEY TIMES IN THE GAME) its a high risk, high reward system. It's time for some BIG changes. We need goalscorers and big body's who can fight. šš¤¦ššāļøš¤š¤ I'll watch from afar but I'm going to be focusing on the Lions and Pistons from here on this year because the Wings simply are not cutting it, not even close. They would have 100% if all of the injuries didn't occur but that's still an excuse, don't care if Lalondes new. Theirs plenty of opinions to go around behind and outside of those closed doors. No more excuses. Yall flat out suck right now and look like a bottom 10 if not bottom 5 team in the league just based on powerplay alone.
I'm convinced Blashill would be able to get more out of the team than Lalonde and his staff. At least Blashill, was not full of crap gaslighting everyone like Lalonde pretending the "underlying numbers" are good.
at this point i hope we can continue to suck more so we can get a good draft pick. this team lacks a superstar talent and so far our long term fa's (copp and chiarot) have been below average or hurt other players performances on the team.
One problem is that the players are shooting directly at the goalieās chest. No one is in front to block the goalieās view. Kubalik is misused. Rasmussen has to be moved down in the lineup. Copp needs to have his ass kicked – play like youāre worth 5 mil. Seider needs to get feisty. Bert needs to get back so Rasmussen can move down. Berggren needs to have more ice time – heās one of th best players on the team.
Perimeter shots shooting directly into the chest of bob no net front presence seeing every shot. Itās amazing how this team can make a shitty goalie look amazing only players that can get any goals in front of the net are Fabbri and Bert.

I was at the game and enjoyed it , ekbad is a very dirty player , go wings
we suk
What luck do we need to have a chance to be a good team.
PP and PK difference in the game , On the first Ekblad PP goal not a soul around him. Fabbs and Berggren were both great.
More bed shitting. š¤¦
our special teams are awful both on the PP and defending against…need to change it up, cause it's clearly not working how it is right now…
Alex Tanguay
Stay out of the sin bin
No Berggren on special teams, he only plays 5on5. Don't understand why..
Hard to watch.
Where a very dangerous team 5-5 ,and once we figure out the special teams and be more consistent LOOK OUT
Copp is barely average.

STOP getting so many penalties! That will solve the problem!
I'm convinced Blashill would be able to get more out of the team than Lalonde and his staff. At least Blashill, was not full of crap gaslighting everyone like Lalonde pretending the "underlying numbers" are good.

They just can't finish!
I really like our guys and our chances and I believe. LGRWS!!!

Another bad 2 points to piss down the toilet š½ against a shit struggling panthers team. Fucking unbelievable

Lmaoo. Iām hearing all this praise for their 5 on 5 play from Lalonde and fans. What are you guys watching?? Itās absolutely abysmal
It means fuck all when you arenāt putting the puck in the net. Absolute fuck all
Only offensive threat is coming from Berg. Heās the only one with Larkin that can actually get clean entries without giving up the puck immediately
Fire Tanguay. People tend to hire people similar to themselves. Tanguay was hired by Blashill. . Enough said
Today they play Toronto and I think Toronto has won the last 8 or 9 games vs Detroit.
Love the pissed off Copper hope he gets it going and uses that anger in a positive way
Put Berggren on the top line
