haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted March 3, 2013 Just turned the game on. Good god they're letting Edzhole call the game? They should have Mickey Redmond there instead of Pierre just to balance things out. Has he said "active stick" or pointed out the Red Wings subtle interference yet? 2 Vladifan and b.shanafan14 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
b.shanafan14 733 Report post Posted March 3, 2013 We need Howard on his game today. Good saves so far, but rebounds atrocious. Need to take care of it. Listening to Edzo and Pierre playing Hawks homer is making me ill. "Penalty, right Edzo?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I think it should be a conflict of interest. But if you're going to do it, why not Kenny Daniels? It is a home game and he should be the play-by-play guy with Doc.

unsaddleddonald 357 Report post Posted March 3, 2013 Are we tired or is Chicago just that good.... Skating circles around us..... Decent 1st... We need to mainline some ephedra at intermission! We are REACTING to everything they do. The Wings are trying to not get scored on which explains no urgency or aggressiveness in the offensive zone. 2 IllinoisRedWingsFan and Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a home game and he should be the play-by-play guy with Doc. Ken has called some national games. Don't think they've involved the Wings though. Other broadcasters have called national games involving the team they do the local broadcast for, like Strader calling one for the Coyotes. But unlike Olczyk he manages to be professional and keep rampant homerism out of his broadcasting. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anijuice 93 Report post Posted March 3, 2013 The one thing that we have that gives our offense an advantage over every team in this league is Datyuk's creativity. We need to uitilize him as much as possible. Can't do that with his current linemates Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,802 Report post Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) Not enough chances on goal. Crawford could have taken a coffee break during the period and not missed anything. Edited March 3, 2013 by GMRwings1983 1 IllinoisRedWingsFan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave 324 Report post Posted March 3, 2013 We look terrible. Just down right like a team that is not good. And you all got your wish about new linees for Dats. Didn't work. Huh? Dats played with andersson because they were caught in an icing. Other than that the worthless duo of abs/clears continues to hit the ice with dats. 1 esteef reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hockeymom1960 5,107 Report post Posted March 3, 2013 How are you blaming the game on the announcers and not our players?! Nobody is blaming the announcers. We were just talking about the conflict of interest with Eddy the Oaf doing play-by-play when the Hawks are playing. We want to have somewhat an enjoyable experience.

dat's sick 1,002 Report post Posted March 3, 2013 We look terrible. Just down right like a team that is not good. And you all got your wish about new linees for Dats. Didn't work. No we look like a team that wasn't really awake that period. Happens these early games, hopefully they'll get their legs under them in the 2nd. Also , no, Dats just got caught out there with Eaves and Andersson because of an icing. And that's hardly the players we want for Pavel. Still Cleary-Dats-Abby. And I'm not sure I can take 2 more periods of that. It's like the other team gets 2 free guys trying to shut Datsyuk down. 1 esteef reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crymson Report post Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) Every time I see Keith Jones: "FLINTSTONE!" It's Edzo who looks like Fred. Keith Jones, who was with the Avs during the early days of the rivalry, also despises the Wings. To be honest, Milbury---obnoxious though he might be sometimes---is the only one who sides with the Wings on a regular basis.

Vladifan 680 Report post Posted March 3, 2013 So I suppose we have to listen to that biased moron Edzo today which he should NOT be commentating at any NBC national games when the Hawks play?????
