PrintThe Red Wings continue their three-games-in-four-nights run with a matchup against the Vancouver Canucks. Last night the Red Wings blew out the Columbus Blue Jackets 9-1, with their first nine-goal team performance in two years. Niklas Kronwell had two goals and an assist, while Jimmy Howard made 25 saves
The Canucks come in having lost to the St. Louis Blues 6-1 on Tuesday night. They come into Joe Louis Arena to play the fourth of a five-game road trip. Henrik Sedin scored the lone Vancouver goal that night. His nine goals give him the team lead and puts him in a tie for 11th in the NHL. The Cancucks hold the fourth best power play in the NHL, with a 24% conversion rate.
Detroit won the previous meeting between these two teams 5-4 on October 27. Pavel Datsuyk (who scored last night) had two goals that night.
The game is on FS Detroit in the US and on Canucks PPV in Vancouver. Puck drop is scheduled for 7:30 ET. I'll be chatting along below. Please join me!

Oz is sick, Larsson called up supposedly.

Late afternoon news: Hordichuk out tonight
One-game suspension for his sub-five-minute instigator Tuesday.
Home just in time
Drop the puck, baby.

Thank heavens that didn't go in
Can you imagine Samuelsson scoring in the Joe…

Another Wings turnover...
…Van Bernier gets the shot off. Two quick turnovers by the Wings…not good…
That's the kind of stuff I pulled in D-II
Won’t work in this league, kiddo.

Brad May and Rick Rypein Fight
May with some strong shots…Rypine pulls the jersey over the head, and throws punches. HA! now they’re showing May teaching Abdelkader how to fight!
He has poor timing
Like dropping the gloves while up 2-0 yesterday.

Okay, I know no one can see this because it's a local spot to me...
…there’s a spot for some booze shop near me, and the open talks about using sexy women to sell liquor. “And we’ve got ’em!” And then they cut to these three women who are only attractive in that “15 minutes before last call and six drinks later” kind of way. As if no one had the heart to tell anyone “you know these women aren’t attractive.”
or do i mean"Why? Brett Lebda"
both are applicable

It was in and out so fast, no one noticed, so he put it back in. That’s the best thing I’ve seen all day.

my buddy did that in soccer, ball hit off the back crossbar and came back and he kicked it again to make sure

DET GOAL: Holmstrom PP (9) (Zetterberg, Datsyuk) 17:34
Zetterberg set him up beautifully, and he was camped out in front taking a bunch of physical abuse but still put it between Luongo’s pads!
crazy looking goal that must of been
i cant get a feed anywhere though damn it can only listen on the ticket lol
we seem to have gotten over that HURDLE
thanks for a great season Rockies!
LETS GO WINGS!
The shot was so hard it bounced off the back support and came right back out, and Tomas wasn’t sure so he put it right back in.
haha nice so we should be leading 2-0 eh haha jk

FSD: Quote from May...
On making wearing visors mandatory: “If you give hockey players choices, they’ll make bad ones.”
i missed half the period
judging by SOG the Canucks pretty much dominated most the period??

15 shots is inexcusable.
That said, I feel like they’re allowing the Canucks to take shots, but are clearing the rebounds a bit better than they have all season (minus last night, when they were also very good).
There are definitely more turnovers in the defensive zone and at the blueline, though.

if Stuart leaves him alone,
that’s not a goal. Oh well, shows sometimes even when you do your job you get the shaft
VAN GOAL: Raymond PP (8) (Bieska, Kesler) 6:38
A Bieska shot that’s deflected off someone, then banks off Raymond without knowing it, and goes into the net.
Eaves leaves after sliding into the boards...
…lost the edge, then lost his balance and went feet first.
Looked uncomfortable.
But up and then to the room on his own power, which is encouraging.

Jeez, check out those rebounds
Good lord.
by Michael Petrella on Nov 12, 2009 7:48 PM CST reply actions
Gord Dwyer made that call from 100 feet away...
…while Dave Jackson, who was 8 feet away, was gonna let it go.
Stuart breaks out of the box...
…manages to get ahold of the puck and puts a nice shot on Luongo. Only the ninth shot of the night for the Wings

Larry Murphy suggests putting the Little Caesar's logo on the Wings jersey (in jest)...
…DON’T GIVE ’EM IDEAS, MURPH!
Holy crap,
the hockey stick logo for the ’Nucks is supposed to be a “C” ???!? How did i never see that?
Here's a tip:
The logo on the front of the Wings sweater is supposed to be a Wing in the color of Red attached to a wheel.
Just trying to help.

ok, so i just got here
i am highly suprised by the shot differential. and that howard has only given up one goal. but i’m glad we’re still in this game
I Like Pie
Kesler and Zetterberg were pushing each other behind the net
The two of them went back with their sticks tied up. Nothing but discussions.
Burrows and May are unhappy...
there’s some pushing…but no call. One of the Wings (Zetterberg, I think) was defending Pavel’s honor.
"The puck took a strange bounce off a stantion," Daniels said...
…at Joe Louis? Really? Are you sure?
hell of a win
wish we had saved some offense for tonight

DET GOAL: Zetterberg (5) (Stuart) 8:00
Stuart with a magnificent set up pass to Henrik, who back hands it and uses the water-bottle goal light to let us know. Great play! It’s 2-1 Red Wings
Zetterberg
is gaining points at will now after a semi slow start…gotta love big Z

What’s up boys? What happened in Columbus last night, way too put the foot in the very large mouth of Hitchcock as I will guarantee you that he’ll never utter the words “I want to make them bleed” ever again. Leaves Mason in for 8?
Goal by Zetterburgh looked exactly like Barker’s goal last night on Anderson. Pretty sweet I must say.
It's never about the eventual destination, but rather the long journey and its challenging obstacles that are presented and what it takes to overcome them, that makes the taste of success all the more worthwhile!!!
lots of pressure
but nothing doing

surprisingly well
tonight and last night he’s played lights out (crosses fingers). In Sweden he looked horrible but i think he’s gaining some confidence

he deked himself out, fell down, still had possession and got up with it still on his stick.

LOL at the Canucks announcers. The Wings are good at winning games they shouldn’t. This coming from a team that gets outplayed and outshot on a consistant basis.

Bertuzzi wouldn't fight Burrows.
Burrows is always looking in his direction. Bertuzzi knows you only attack from behind.

DET GOAL: Kronwall EN (5) (Howard) 19:04
Hit the stantion, knuckled down the ice, and the 180-footer seals it up!
Kronwall should be a curler. Nice draw weight.
So long boys! We’ll meet again!

I’ll go one better: this is a turning point game. This is the kind of game that makes people take notice and go, “I think he’s ready for more.”
i'll agree
Form wise, he’s much better than Osgood but just has some issues following the puck. Only way you can get better at that is full speed games so why not give him time?
