Turnovers cost Red Wings game against Bruins | Montgomery hired in St. Louis

1. We are in Nov, still a lot of hockey to be played, but the way the Wings are playing sucks. And, a trade to help with scoring? Fischer, a hitter, for a past MVP with 2 goals. That really helps to get to playoff hockey. They are treating this team like the old Olympia, just put a fresh coat of paint on the inside and it will be okay! NOT

2. Fire lalonde!! Why are people still waiting to fire him. Makes no damn sense to me

3. Gerard gallant is out there

4. Since Yzerman took over in 2019, the Red Wings have gone from a terrible team with no cap room to….. a terrible team with no cap room.

5. Oh please! This team was horrible in the 3rd.
   Post game comments lack any passion. It feels like "oh well".

6. Yzerman is just about out of time to make a change in an extremely tight division. It's not impossible, but i just don't see Lalonde guiding them out of this.

7. The turnovers are not the problem, the problem is THIS TEAM CAN"T SCORE! Yzerman, LaLonde and about half of the roster must go. They skate in quicksand and they have outlawed body checks. Yikes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8. All they are doing is digging a deeper hole. Lalonde must go. That experiment has failed.

9. Quinneville is available not sure why he isn’t being considered. He’s a better option than newsy

10. So here is my take on the turnovers. Number 1 changing the lines every game. Number 2 the players and coaching style are not in sync probably because the players actually want to win games. Number 3 Detroits passing isn’t superb to begin with. Number 4 seider and edvisson are taking the brunt of the defensive metrics with edvisson being a rookie pretty much he will make some bad passes. Keep in mind Lalonde prefers petry over Johansson. Fast young kid that might make mistakes as a rookie or slow old guy that will make mistakes with his walking cane

11. You cannot win a game with 14 turnovers in the 3rd period. No passion on or off the ice. Post game interviews say it all. Lalonde, at least publicly, has absolutely no leadership skills. Need some fire in the belly

12. Couple things here. Kane's age, I think, is finally catching up with him. He has lost a step, and while it's disappointing, is it really all that unexpected? Two… Talbot has been a very bright spot. I didn't want Gibson because he's old, and while Talbot is an upgrade over him, I was still somewhat disappointed when we signed him. But he's been great, all things considered. As a bonus, I've said since the start of this mediocre season that if Lalonde is fired, it'll be in the summer. While I'd love to see Stevie have a line of guys waiting to take coaching spots, I think we're more likely to see wholesale changes in April rather than now. We need changes from head coach to professional scouts, penalty kill, all the way down the line. PP is good, goaltending is decent for who we have, but Lalonde shouldn't be the only one in the firing line.

13. You guys don't know "suffering" as you put it. We are not the Maple Loafs. They've been re-building for another cup since 1967. Just relax. We'll be in the playoffs this year.

14. "Doing the same thing over and over is the pure definition of insanity." We lose because of poor coaching, then we win one and everybody says, "Hey, we can do this…" until the next loss. If Lalonde stays, we end April with 65 points or less. If he goes and soon, we might be able to scratch our way in and maybe even do well in the first round. Lalonde's system will not work. We're wasting talent, we're wasting good players. Or we're trading them off. The die hard Yzerplan people keep waiting for the rainbow to appear. Not to beat this is in, but Ghost and Walman are scoring or assisting like crazy. Tarasenko is a slug. Kaspar and Mo are getting wasted, Kapsar is a time bomb waiting to go off, but the Lalondeplan keep peeing on the timer. Hull and Charot are not the same caliber as Ghost and Walman. Maybe we could pick up Callaway as a sponsor. We'll need em in May.

15. Besides Lalonde you have Petry, Holl, and Chiarot boat anchors. Veleno and Ras are doing nothing and I think that they have trade value, but I don't trust Yzerman to get a good return. Time to sweep up and try to save the evolving good draft picks that we had.

16. Won't even touch blue sky

17. Uncle Fester needs to go.

18. I think it’s funny. The biggest mistake and failure by yzerman isn’t copp or Holl or Husso they all can be explained. His biggest failure is Lalonde. I mean with a good coach. Holl and Husso would never even play right now lol. They would only affect salary cap. Lalonde can’t make a line to save his life. At least not completely. He might get a few lines right then fuck up the other ones.

19. Thanks for your podcasts. You save me from watching the Wings.

20. Part of the reason Cat scored under 30 goals last year is his new focus on the defensive side of things. He was leaps and bounds better defensively last year than any before that, and is doing it again this year while still being one of our best offensive forwards. Would love to see him crack 30 this year, though.

21. Kaspa is a 2nd line centre for us lol, dont get me wrong, i think hes great, but compher and copp need to sort it out

22. Everyone on this comment thread is a total moron!!
