Handed our Lunch? Really? They're up because of their PP's (and we get the make-up as I type this).

If Tootoo had any balls, or any liver, or any indian, left in him he would've obliged Kassian after taking a run at Tanev. Nobody on Detroit will fight us. We are the tougher team and we need to play a skilled game or we'll spend the whole game in the box.

The way Boston played a skilled game to beat us?

Now a bench minor?

Our special teams are destroying us this year.

We are not earning this. The refs are giving it to the Wings.

Really getting sick of this league and it's officiating and supplementary discipline.

Who cares about this game anyway?

Detroit - Vancouver games have been quite enjoyable in the past. But LaRue and Morton are bad referees.

I say relieve Luongo, put Schneider in, and then just continuously swear and yell at the refs - who cares? They've already ruined the game - just take unsportmanlikes until it's ridiculous.

Take a stand.

Since when is this the playoffs? And we need to play a game similar to last year's Boston rematch (regular season game, ya know?)
Now a bench minor?

The Refs are giving it to the Wings. Since when do NHL refs call Unsportsmanlike conduct penalties for chirping? Unless Kassian called the ref's mother a barren c*nt, I don't think chirping should warrant a penalty. Especially when they've been feeding PP's to Detroit for garbage calls all day...

The way Howard has sucked we could get this game back... its only a 2 goal lead.
I say pound these guys on the walls and go for the win. It's not like they're shutting us down

Some bad calls for sure but not all have been bad. An early whistle gave us a break on a good goal so call that PP even out. Bottom line our special teams are crap this year, compared to past years. But we had little or no energy in the 2nd, in good part due to all the penalties. Too bad the refs have to insert themselves into a good match up.

We have a chance to get back in this if we play the way we did in the first. Get an early one on the PP and push the play. Obviously stay out of the PP.

Trade Luongo now. 5 goals against already and only the 2nd. :D

Our defence is definitely missing something this year. I'd say a strong presence on the R side to start. WE have to part with one of our 4+ L sided D men and get that position filled. How do other teams do it?

Hamhuis should NOT be on the PP. He is too indecisive with the puck and wastes opportunities.

Our PP is such garbage.

I agree, staple these guys to the boards for 20 min. Who cares if we have to play 5-on-3 for the rest of the game, it's already 7-on-5. Just make the Wings remember this game. They can limp around and cry about a full IR list but console themselves over a win given to them by the refs. I bet if every team that ends up on the short end of shitty refs just pounded the other team into the ice I think the league would finally start disciplining refs for shit calls,

There are some teams, and Detroit is one of them, that are continually getting the benefit of shit reffing.

This feels like a playoff game, drunk in the daylight and every shot going in with assists to awful reffing. I think I'll start my beard.

Wow. This team needs some emotion.

I hate the lack of physical play from this team some games, when you are down at least go out and make them pay for it.

Fuck do I hate the emotionless Canucks.
