I’m not sure what he was expecting

Who doesn’t love a little empty net NHL drama? Well if you do, we got ourselves a pretty good one last night! The Detroit Red Wings hosted the New Jersey Devils in what was a frustrating game for the Devils. Despite them heavily outshooting the Red Wings, Detroit was pesky as you could feel frustration brewing for New Jersey throughout the night. This all came to a head in the 3rd period where we saw Dillon and Fischer get into it as well as Chiarot and Kovacevic. What happened in the final seconds of the game though, was my highlight of the night. With an empty net, Rasmussen went to seal the deal when Jack Hughes came flying down the ice and attempted to lay a hit. Hughes, the much smaller player though, quickly was humbled when he hit the ice. I cover that and everything else from this game in todays NHL hockey video!

  1. Red wings fans dont act like "this is our year" youre getting lucky like you do every year but once teams start to buckle down you choke, you're like the sabres but with more heartbreak, at least sabres fans expect it at this point.

  2. i'm the first to make fun of Hughes for being soft, but going for the body, even while being the smaller player, was the right call. if he had focused on a stick check, one move would quickly dodged the poke, but Hughes knew exactly where the lumbering body of Rasmussen was going. if anything, good on him for attempting the physical play even though he was physically outmatched

  3. Rasmussen stood over Hughes like Mohammad Ali In that famous photo. The way Hughes got up as if he was going to have a go told me he'd fail the concussion protocol.

  4. Devils must have been REALLY pissed to lose that game. They played 45 mins or so of really good hockey. The wings 15 mins of great play won the game on Talbott great net tending.
    Great video!!

  5. Awesome review and highlights of a great Wings game. The Moose’s goal. When you showed it I rewound it 15 times just to laugh some more. 🥳💩😆😆😆🥳

  6. HEY it's someone pronouncing Määttä almost correctly, as a Finn it's just weird hearing "Maada" all the time. (This time it was "Määdä" but it was RECOGNIZABLE)

  7. Hey man, i really love you videos, and your style of humour. I look forward to the weekly recaps from you and hockey psychology every weekend. Please keep it up man!

  8. The officiating on this one was just brutal. First the clear boarding on dillon which resulted in a roughing penalty for the devils. Then kovacevic gets slapped with a fighting major despite not dropping his gloves, nor throwing a single punch. Then the call on chiarot, although that one was clearly a makeup call for their earlier shenanigans. Then to top it all off, possibly to make up for the chiarot call, a clear tripping by raymond on hughes goes uncalled.
