It's not so bad that they lost, but the way that they lost is what bothers me. The way they respond will say a lot about them.

Re: 2008 Red Wings Playoffs

Is there some sort of curse that I'm not aware of?

Reminds me of a couple of those early losses to the Ducks last year that they never recovered from. Three one goal losses to the Ducks last year and 2 in OT

Too close for comfort was right. I switched channels at the end of the first period with the wings up 1-0;, to the Raptors/heat game and then to the Cavs/Sixers game and actually for got about the wings game. I turned back to the game hoping it was over and lord and behold we were up 3-2 with only 4 minutes left. 20 seconds later it was tied and 29 seconds after I tune it on we were behind and I had no faith they would tie let alone win it........Have to hope that the perceived Predator momentum is squashed on Wednesday.

Re: 2008 Red Wings Playoffs

I watched the latter part of the 3rd period and even though Wings were leading, it looked like it was just a matter of time before Nashville ties the score. The Wings barely spent any time in the offensive end, and they had problem clearing the puck out of their own zone. Wings were just running around chasing Nashville players. It just didn't look right.

Daily Tribune : Nashville has scoop on Hasek 04/16/08

Babcock said that he might make lineup changes for tonight's game after using the same group in the first three games. "There might be, all based on how guys are feeling," said coach Mike Babcock. So is anyone banged up? "Everyone's pretty good," answered Babcock.

Re: 2008 Red Wings Playoffs

I think the Wings still win the series. Tough loss.

Re: 2008 Red Wings Playoffs

Well the in studio commentators said it best in between the second and third periods. The wings don't react to goals whether they score them or when the opposition does. Monday night they allow the predators to score two goals within 9 seconds with the latter being the winning goal and tonight after scoring a goal themselves to put them back in the game, they give up another quick one in 11 or so seconds and that turned out to be the winning goal.

The dominator was yanked quickly and I would have done the same thing...although you can't blame the whole thing on him....

Re: 2008 Red Wings Playoffs

I watched most of the 3rd period and Wings looked out of sorts. There was no offensive pressure and way too many turnovers in their own end to let Nashville have great scoring chances. I wonder if the move to Ozzy is permanent. But the team just didn't look good. They need to pick things up if they are to win the series. Wouldn't really want to see it going to game 7.
