Around SBN: Despite Relocation Drama, Coyotes Overcome Adversity

Third Period Rally Thread

Wings down 2-0 on Los Angeles, despite a shot advantage of a hundred billion gajillion to seven.

We've thrown everything but the kitchen sink and Bert's Frozen Banana stand at Quick.  Now we're throwing a rally thread.  You know what to do.

Question

Do we still want to see the Wings score or is a shutout a suitable punishment for the way they’ve reacted to the adversity of Quick’s goaltending through the first two?

by J.J. from Kansas on Dec 13, 2010 8:41 PM CST reply actions

No

It’s bad to wish good things on the team’s opposition for the benefit of your fantasy team.

by J.J. from Kansas on Dec 13, 2010 8:44 PM CST up reply actions  

I think some of the score differential is the Kings coming out to the third period pumped up about the way Quick’s playing.

by Casey Richey on Dec 13, 2010 8:44 PM CST up reply actions  

I wouldn't call a shutout punishment.

The guys up front played well enough to win. Tonight is Quick’s night and all we needed is Howard to step up when the play was going his way and he just didn’t measure up.

It’s almost like watching Quick fend off all 26 shots in the 2nd got in Jimmy’s head.

by Elfuego51 on Dec 13, 2010 8:44 PM CST up reply actions  

More punishment would be...

Score 4 goals but then Quick turns unstoppable after that and they watch the clock run down in a cruel, slow fashion….

Go for it

by DetroitSports on Dec 13, 2010 8:45 PM CST up reply actions  

Does it matter anymore?

I don’t care how good Quick was, giving up 5 goals is never good.

But FWIW, a shutout would be poetic justice at this juncture.
