No, goaltending has the team outperforming their talent level by a mile. They are underperforming in every other aspect.

Surprised it took some people this many lazy turnovers to sour on him.

Players are probably shaken up too with the Greg Millen news, like many of us watching.

Tough to get vested in this game to be honest

Every player almost has been playing well above their usual capabilities.

There is only so much you can do with a lack of talent.

He has been skipping a lot of practices lately (including today), so he's almost certainly nursing something.

I bet once they're officially eliminated, he'll be shut down and we'll see Parekh.

Fine by me.

Helps Wolf's save percentage, and hinders their goalies'.

Like you, i don't understand what they think skewing shots accomplishes.

They do it in LA and Edmonton too.

The career stats of every player says you are wrong. Your story though, tell it anyway you like it.

Gives the visiting goalie better save % numbers too. Those shot totals in that period did seem quite a bit off.

Detroit used to have wildly wrong shot counts.

May be it's not Huska's duty to make sure the players ready to go in the start of game. But we can see how the team perform in the last 2 periods and how Huska manage the game.

If they could play the first period like they play 3rd periods they would be in a lot better shape this year.
