PrintThe Red Wings head to Columbus to take on the Blue Jackets in their first meeting of the season tonight. The Red Wings come in off their 5-1 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs: a loss that saw the Wings also lose Jason Williams to a broken fibula.
Despite the fact the Wings have earned a point in eight of the last ten games (5-2-3), they still seem to not be firing on all cylinders (as evidenced by Saturday's contest). With a seriously depleted roster, the Wings sit 11th in the Western Conference. Meanwhile, Columbus is in a tie with Chicago for the lead in the Central division. The Blue Jackets defeated the Carolina Hurricanes on goals from Rick Nash, Nikita Filatov and Jared Boll, all coming within a 2:41 span in the third period.
It will be interesting to see how Ville Leino does with increased ice time and responsibility after the Williams injury. He has only one point in the past 10 games. Henrik Zetterberg has 10 points in the last 10 games, including three goals the past five games. The Wings will play three times in four days (tomorrow night at home against Vancouver and Saturday night against Anaheim).
FS-Detroit and FS-Ohio have the game. I'll be commenting along below!

I adore Center Ice this season...
I’ve always loved. But now being able to choose which feed…. brilliant.

So far you've missed
A terrible Bertuzzi pass, and a puck in the net. In other words, regular occurrences.
by Michael Petrella on Nov 11, 2009 6:09 PM CST up reply actions
DET GOAL: Cleary (3) (Zetterberg) (1:05)
A bad clear by the Jackets puts it right on Zetterberg’s stick, who passes it nicely to Dan. The Wings jump out early!
DET GOAL: Datsyuk (3) (Holmstrom) 3:03
The shot goes right off Mason, but into the net. A lousy goal off Mason, and it’s 2-0 in the first three minutes.
Don't be ridiculous.
Brett Hull couldn’t skate.

Some dude
Scored a handful of goals in his cup of coffee with the Wings. Then he signed Sean Avery in Dallas. HA

Great start
It’s about time the Wings start with some jump.

I had just finished saying
“Oh, he’s going to get his ass kicked” as Brad May fell down, clearly suffering head trauma from that Jared Boll WHIFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFf
by Michael Petrella on Nov 11, 2009 6:18 PM CST up reply actions
And it's over! Boll took two punches on the haymaker...
…May appears to be cut, so he’ll skate off. Three swings from Boll puts May on his butt.

Yet another turnover! Draper with a shot that gets deflected. And that’s it for Steve Mason. He’ll take a shower.

MISTAKE!
On the list of “Future inductees” from the 02 Cup team they listed Osgood, but Osgood was not part of that team.

Also
I’ll eat my hat if Chris Osgood is inducted in the Hall of Fame. I won’t go into the “does he deserve it or not” conversation – I just don’t think he has that respect, and will never be inducted.

When he gets to 400 wins, they'll have a hard time arguing against him
Maybe now you'll never slime a guy with a positron collider!
true
but i think even some ECHL goalies could get 300 of those 400 wins with the defenses in front of him..
by Casey Richey on Nov 11, 2009 6:40 PM CST up reply actions
He won't be first ballot
Because I agree that he doesnt get that respect, but I wouldn’t be completely surprised to see him in there one day.

Puck loose in front...
…Leino can’t get his stick on it. He’s gotta be able to at least get a chance out of that.
omg Leino has to clean that one up

Todd Bertuzzi misses two *golden* chances!
Behind Mason, without Mason knowing he was there!
Good thing that didn’t go in. Mason would’ve been beaten senseless.
Bertuzzi's useless
There, I said it. Again.

Oh dear...
…Bertuzzi tries to set up Leino, who can barely handle it, then desperately passes it back to Bertuzzi, who can’t get the shot off.

CLB GOAL: Nash (12) (Umberger, Klesla) 10:56
After a nice play a moment ago, Lidstrom makes a sloppy touch, and Nash is right there to cash it in. 4-1.

DET GOAL: Bertuzzi 3 (unassisted) 13:17
A blast goes in and out so fast, the referee seemed stunned to signal (and no light either).
DET GOAL: Leino 3 (Zetterberg) 13:50
Camped out waiting, Leino cashes in. It’s 6-1 Wings, and the flood gates are opened.

Why did Bertuzzi take so long?
Has he shot immediately that goal is going in (even though it went in). He does seem to be holding onto the puck for an extra few seconds.

That's what I saw, too.
And he almost fell down with it, too. The more I watch, the more I’m convinced that I could absolutely replace him on this roster.
by Michael Petrella on Nov 11, 2009 7:27 PM CST up reply actions
Its crazy
That was what I was seeing before the replay. After the replay it was even more apparent. Wasn’t ever a big Bertuzzi watcher so I don’t know if thats his style of play, but he just needs to release a bit quicker.

i agree
I mean, it’s a simple thing to implement and it could save so many players from serious, serious injury.
by Casey Richey on Nov 11, 2009 7:31 PM CST up reply actions
Perhaps it would help if the league office grew some to start suspending these players and making it clear from up top.

Would you want to make this game go any longer than needed? I’m surprised they’re not doing running clock.
