they're comparing him to Gretzky on the Chicago broadcast

is no one I’d want on my team if the other team has the puck. except for Lidstrom. its up in the air, esp after wed.

hmm
maybe Kane does need to play. help bring the Blackhawks down
Penatly shot. Fuck you Edzo.
How about the 20 penalties the Hawks didn’t get called on you stupid fuck.
Edzo
Fuck you with your penalty shot talk. That was not a penalty shot. If that had been called, this computer would have gone into the TV, and I would have sent you the bill for a new one of each.
Idiot.
Zero penalties for Chicago
Two Hawks goals scored on power plays/delayed calls. That’s the difference at the moment.
by Michael Petrella on Dec 17, 2010 9:47 PM CST reply actions
Are we crazy?
Are we just being “those fans” by railing against the lack of calls against the Wings? I’m not normally one of the conspiracy fans, but the refereeing seems to be awfully one-sided tonight.
They're letting a lot go... both directions.
I stand by my comments on TP:60 about it. If you’re relying on ANYONE ELSE to help you win a game — including fairness from the refs — you’re not playing hard enough to win on your own. And that’s never an excuse.
by Michael Petrella on Dec 17, 2010 9:50 PM CST up reply actions
Agreed
I’m never one to blame the refs. But to not get 1 PP 50 minutes into a game seems weird. I find it hard to believe that the refs have not seen one infraction on the Hawks that deserved to be called.
But that is not the reason the Wings are losing. It’s just something I want to blame to make myself feel better.
Agree 100%
If the refs are calling a game correctly, no team would ever go an entire game without one penalty.
It is odd.
In any era of hockey, that’s fucking odd.
But the fact that there’s only been one TOTAL is odd, too. Letting them play, I guess.
by Michael Petrella on Dec 17, 2010 9:53 PM CST up reply actions
It's the standard
They score on the power play on an Ericsson hold and then holds stop counting.
At this point, Rig isn’t getting a minus for the hold. I’ve seen one by Kopecky, one by Seabrook, one by Kronwall, and one by Bertuzzi which were all equally as egregious.
by J.J. from Kansas on Dec 17, 2010 9:55 PM CST up reply actions
Agreed
There have been calls missed by both teams. But if it’s a penalty in the first, it’s a penalty in the 2nd/3rd.
But the refs have let them play.
This is why I like you
You have the same outlook on the game as I do. I love my team to death, but I don’t have to blame conspiracies/refs/etc when they lose.
It's not a conspriacy
Walcom acted alone
Blatant Twitter Promotion, rarely updated, occasionally funny
Of course they are
Chicago’s stars (and PP line) are banged up, the Wings’ aren’t. Bettman says let them play, otherwise it’s a 7-2 circus in our favor with a standard flow of penalties.
Oy. Tinfoil hat time.
It’s not “calling things one way” if NO ONE’S getting called. And it doesn’t BENEFIT the injured Blackhawks to have a five on five contest for sixty minutes.
There was one penalty called tonight. This isn’t second grade… not everyone needs a valentine. It doesn’t have to be even. It doesn’t have to be “fair.” No one’s going to go home and cry.
One team got the job done tonight, and the other didn’t. The end.
by Michael Petrella on Dec 17, 2010 9:59 PM CST up reply actions
HA
I’m always in a mood. I just can’t stand when its everyone’s fault but the Red Wings. Sometimes, they’re just outplayed, regardless of the referees or the shot count or the goaltender. Tonight was one of those nights, sadly.
I don’t mean anything personal by it, obviously. You all know me well enough to know I love you all. I just call it like it is, and try to think like it’s me on the ice. I’ve been in similar situations and sometimes have a relatable story to tell.

In all seriousness, you’re like our voice of reason. Sometimes the refs suck, and we get mad, and that’s cool. But at the end of the day it’s never the “refs’ fault”.
There will be mention of this in my post-game.
by Amerinadian on Dec 17, 2010 10:04 PM CST up reply actions
Nice.
There are like three axioms I can share about playing hockey at a high level:
1) It’s no one’s fault but your own. If you rely on someone else to get YOUR job done, you suck at your job.
2) If you play all sixty minutes like you’re down 1-0, you’ll have the fire that you need to keep playing for the win.
3) If you play for the consolation point, you’re a loser. It’s two points or nothing, and it’s never okay to “be fine with one point.”

That’s exactly what I said on my wedding…..oh wait, this may not be the right forum for that.
I’ve got a few stories from my mens’ league team that I should share with you at H2H2. They are not really fit for public consumption (but not that bad in the grand scheme of things).

I have some excellent men’s league stories…especially since I didn’t play men’s league until after playing in college. And our men’s league team WAS the college team. Things got interesting when old accountants tried to play tough guy with us. HA

HA! I love that guy...
Some dude was slashing the shit out of my arm once, and I snapped his stick over my shoulder… and he was like “WHAT THE HELL DID YOU SEE THAT REF?! HE BROKE MY STICK!”
And the ref was like “well what was it doing by his ear?”
by Michael Petrella on Dec 17, 2010 10:30 PM CST up reply actions
Haha
He hit the oldest guy on our team (he was in his 40s), and after during our post-game beverage in the dressing room, we joked that the crazy guy hit all our guy’s hair off.
It was one of those “had to be there” moments.

I agree with Graham. You're the voice of reason.
And I should’ve said EVERYONE’S in a mood tonight. That kind of day, apparently.
I never said "calling it one way"
But how in the hell do you explain in “the new NHL” a team not getting a single fucking power play? How many games are we listening (or not listening in the cases of silent treatment) to Mickey bitch about the ticky-tack penalties are? You just need to look at someone wrong to get sent to the box, so we get to a Detroit/Chicago game and there’s only one/two penalties?
Oh, and I'm not coming from a "We didn't get PPs, that's why we lost"
I’m coming from “I love hockey. I’d like to be able to spot a penalty and know it, along with everyone else.” Just freaking confusing, cause there easily could have been 4 or 5 apiece.
True
At the same time, the Wings only got 1 penalty, and the 2nd one was a high stick which was the right call. I really think we’ve got to chalk it up to a “letting them play” kind of night.
by Amerinadian on Dec 17, 2010 10:26 PM CST up reply actions
Agreed
And I apologize for the confusion. I was just venting about the “calling it one way” thing — not attaching that to you.
You’re totally right, though. There EASILY could have been a few on both sides if they were looking for one. When it became clear that they were NOT looking for one, it’s time to adjust and play the beautiful game that we all know the Wings are capable of playing. Ya know what I mean?
by Michael Petrella on Dec 17, 2010 10:28 PM CST up reply actions
I think that's an easy agreement
The reffing standard was atrocious. If I’m a Hawks fan (then I’m still wondering why Babcock didn’t call his second timeout in the third) then I’m just as unhappy about all of the shit that Detroit got away with.
Ok, maybe not as unhappy, since my team would have won, but still unhappy.
by J.J. from Kansas on Dec 17, 2010 10:50 PM CST up reply actions

I know they scored on a couple of delayed calls, but has there been a 5 on 4 either way tonight?

I guess all things said and done…our tardy play in the first two periods and instances of the third cost us. Do not want to harp about the lack of penalties…..We just did not play Wing Hockey…
I celebrate Festivus!!!
I can tell you one thing about tomorrow....
….practice won’t require sticks.
Dancing Datsyuk Decidedly Dazzles Dainty Defensemen
I just saw the Panthers score.
When did they start scoring? I know 6 games ago their PP was at 6.5% and they were averaging 2 goals a game.
Their last 2 or 3 games have been awesome though.
