The Detroit Red Wings were looking for revenge after a shootout loss in Boston. Fortunately, the scoring drought ended just in time to see them win 5-4.

Hi again,
nice and complete report to read indeed, thanks. The problem with the injured is that it is going to damage the griffins, somehow. Who will come to the big team ?
I’m following Wallstedt a little and, though Cossa is doing very well, is he going to be as good ? Wallstedt said the team was playing well, and I think he’s right, a goalie cannot do everything, at least for the long season (he can win some games by himself sometimes though). The Griffins are probably playing well too in front of Cossa. Hockey is a team game, and Detroit has to get better in front of its goalies.Good day, Jeremy and fans!!
The W vs BOS was ok, but there are cracks showing in this team; Defense is a sieve, we lack speed, and our G is abysmal. YES, it’s nice to have the win, cannot argue that (really nice to see 2 Bruins sent off as well….), but watching the final 1/2 of the 3d period worried that we can’t shut it down isn’t sustainable. Something has to give.
LOTS of chatter about Hughes, some of it says we’re in the mix, but at what cost? Seeing offers such as a 1st, high-end current roster player, and high-end prospect. Some have stated the discussion would begin with ASP and end w/MBN. What’s the price to pay? We cannot continue the rebuild/complete it with what we have in the pipeline. Cossa will probably be called up this year, and he may well stay. That will help, but it won’t if our D continues to give out free passes to the net.
Some are going to flip their lids on this, but I’d offer that ASP may be the price to pay for a Superstar player this team is in such desperate need of. We can’t even remotely out-score our shoddy defense and have to score 4 to win each game – that’s just not a sustainable model for SCF eligibility. Frankly, Hughes makes this team exponentially better, if not a viable SCPO-bound club.
How long do we wait, and exactly who are we willing to give up to take the next step? If not Hughes, who else do we go after that raises the bar and makes this a viable SCPO-bound club?
