These are the projected lineups:
SHARKS
Joonas Donskoi - Joe Thornton - Joe Pavelski
Patrick Marleau - Tomas Hertl - Joel Ward
Melker Karlsson - Chris Tierney - Tommy Wingels
Matthew Nieto - Micheal Haley - Mike Brown
Paul Martin - Brent Burns
Marc-Edouard Vlasic - Justin Braun
Brenden Dillon - Matt Tennyson
Martin Jones
Alex Stalock
Injured: Logan Couture (broken leg)
Scratched: Nikolay Goldobin, Ben Smith, Mirco Mueller
RED WINGS
Justin Abdelkader - Henrik Zetterberg - Pavel Datsyuk
Tomas Tatar - Dylan Larkin - Gustav Nyquist
Riley Sheahan - Andreas Athanasiou - Teemu Pulkkinen
Drew Miller - Luke Glendening - Darren Helm
Niklas Kronwall - Mike Green
Danny DeKeyser - Jonathan Ericsson
Jakub Kindl - Alexey Marchenko
Jimmy Howard
Petr Mrazek
Injured: Johan Franzen (concussion), Brad Richards (back), Kyle Quincey (ankle), Landon Ferraro (knee)
Scratched: Joakim Andersson, Tomas Jurco, Brendan Smith
Status update: Marleau will probably play some center, according to DeBoer. … Datsyuk's return moves Sheahan from second-line center to third-line left wing.
Who's hot: Athanasiou scored his first NHL goal Tuesday in Detroit's 1-0 win against the Washington Capitals. … Ward had a goal and an assist Tuesday in a 4-2 loss against the New York Islanders.
H-hello? Anyone there?
am I the only one that wants Tatar gone? I mean... I see nothing in him and nothing in it for Wings to keep him.
Abby is going to open up the wings scoring.
Go wongs.
>tfw Paris got me down
At least there's hockey and alcohol
>>63532377

>>63532515
Yea, this. Gonna try and get my mind off that shit and enjoy some beers and hockey for a bit

Wasn't his fault desu senpai
As a Kings fan I have such mixed feelings about Jones lately. On one hand his poor play keeps the Sharks from getting points. But on the other, he's a good guy and he was a great back-up to Quick.
>>63532934
Doesn't make it right. Yeah, their immigration policies are fucked, but have a little sympathy, bruh
>>63532945
Regardless
>>63532957
I have sympathy for anyone who was against accepting any of the refugees. I have no sympathy for anyone who is pro-refugee and then gets killed by them.
>>63532945
It's still worth saying desu
>>63532986
>implying the citizens made any of those decisions
Go back to /pol/, lets just talk about hockey
>>63532954
As a Kings "fan", shouldn't you be glad that he's been keeping them from getting points?
FUCK YOU, JIMMY
>>63533021

Welcome back. Gtfo

hooooooooooooly fuck man he looks shaky
Bit wrapped up in the terrorist attacks in France atm but
>howard
>>63532986
>actually being an edgy kid
>>63533020
That's literally in my post. I'm not sure how you're confused by this.
MELKMAN
Why the fuck didn't he start out this season?
He was great last season.
>>63532986
Hey, what's it like to be 16? It's been a while for me
>>63532986
Grow up and get out. Let us enjoy hockey
>>63533076
Then I don't understand the mixed feelings. He did well in the KIngs net, he does "well" in San Jose.
Or are you not sure if he is good or not? But that wouldn't have to do with feelings.
>>63533163
I like Jones, so I'm a bit bummed he's struggling. but his struggles = less points for the Sharks, which is awesome. Hence mixed feelings. Do you understand now?
It's not that hard.
>>63533196
Ahh, thanks. Yeah, I should have got that.
I'm torn between wanting the sharks to win because I'm a fan, and wanting them to literally lose every game for the rest of the season because maybe some fanor even Mike Brown will go crazy enough to kill Doug Wilson.
>>63533233
I'm just waiting for the Seals to make a return tbqhwy
TRADE HOWARD IMMEDIATELY
THERE ARE PEOPLE
RIGHT
NOW
WHO THINK HOWARD IS A BETTER GOALIE MRAZEK
REAL FUCKIN NIETO
It's like the same fucking goal Howard!
Matty NEETs
>>63533368
Howard is literally worse than the French at responding to terrorist attacks
found out red wings are playing in my city tomorrow
is seatgeek still the best ticketing site?
How did Magic Man do in 1st?
>>63533566
Bees, you live in Boston?
>>63533916
Had a killer fucking shift at one point. No scoring plays, but he looks good.

God, I remember that. The Wings ended up losing, but seeing that Ducks fan get BTFO was priceless
go wings
Ugh, why is Ericsson top line defense?
>>63534058

PULL HOWARD

When does the Wings play against the Ducks next time?
blöööööhhhhhh
>this game
Larkin loves the wrap around. Tries it almost every game
>>63534183
>his captain isn't a gorgeous Swede
lmao
Honestly, though, keep it up. Score at least five on Howard tonight. Maybe they'll keep him benched for a while this time.
that was a great tip
with the fucking shaft
>Detroit
>scoring 3 goals in one game

>>63534206
Blööh indeed, maybe even blääääh

I can tip your sister with my shaft ;^
>>63534244
Perhaps som blaargh too
Hockey noob here. Why isn't mrazek tending the net? Do hockey teams alternate goalies a lot?
can we get something for howturd
>>63534280
On back-to-back games they often do. Otherwise, no.
But Detroit doesn't have a "starter" since the coaching staff considers Howard and Mrazek to be very close.
>>63534280
>Do hockey teams alternate goalies a lot?
Generally, no. There's always a backup to cover in case of injuries or in case there's a situation where you have to play two days in a row. Wings are in a different situation because Howard was the starter for a long time, but when he got hurt last year, Mrazek rose up as the new hotness and blew everyone's fucking minds. So there arose a goaltender controversy. I think Mrazek should be the obvious choice -- definitely moving forward.
>>63534298
A bag of chips, maybe

Good trips.
I only remember a Pavs stick deflection and goal, Nieto goal did't see it, and Melker scored by posting up near the post.
>Detoilet
>Kindl
stop giving it away in front of the net kthx
>be down by 2 at the start of the third period
>have 3 SOG after half the period
Might as well start tanking if they don't want to put any effort into 90% of the games
what is wrong
I want to shut this off
>>63535274
you know what I wanna know: was it the staff or the actor who made cox a red wings fan?
>>63535316
>implying they both aren't red wings fans
Can't fault Howard for the loss tbhf. Can't exepct to get a point if you only score one goal.
How long until Detroit have less than 2 goals forward per game?
>>63535316
No idea.
>>63535350
But you can expect more than 11 saves on 14 shots.
Datsyuk came back too soon, he should have waited another week.
>>63535380
Eh. He's fine. I think a lot of the issue tonight is the sudden change of lines. We were getting in a groove with the lines we had, and now it's all jumbled.
>>63535368
Yes, I was a little unclear. This isn't an okay outing for Howard. But I don't think he is the main problem today. They have had plenty of time to get back, and San Jose haven't been playing that good themselves.
>>63535380
I though it would make sense to put them in after their opponent has been on the road for a few games.
>>63535316
>>63535342

Gad damn..

Here come the empty netters.
>playing boston tmrw in boston
i don't see it getting better between now and then
>>63535413
That's part of what I meant. He needs to be healthy enough to compensate for that.
>>63535472
>was expecting them to win this game and lose tomorrow.
>they're going to lose both.
ughhhhherer
HOLY SHIT HE ACTUALLY HIT THE NET
SCAR
LET'S GO BOYS KEK

>>63535316
John C. McGinley is friends with Chris Chelios.

They actually scored!!
>>63535503
Ha. No he didnt
that was fucken dreadful
lel this spaghetti
>He seriously missed by 2 feet.
utter shite
>score
>play the rest of the game like shit
gg (not detroit)
Shit game.
Shit thread.
I guess shorks fans are all right though.
Honestly though, someone work with Pulkinnen. He's got to have another trick besides just shooting the fuck out of the puck.
Two of SJ's goals were blown coverage by the Detroit defense. Asinine to blame Howard for that when the team couldn't put together more than one goal after scoring three minutes in.
>>63535614
He's scored second most goals on the team though, despite playing on the third line
>>63535637
And he plays on the third line most of the time, too. And most of his goals.
>abby signs mega contract
>hardly plays (cause he's not that good)
