Red Wings look lifeless in loss to Pittsburgh Penguins | Simon Edvinsson snubbed from Team Sweden



The Red Wings could get nothing started offensively against the Penguins on Saturday, registering only 12 shots on net. John Gibson and the 2nd line were the only ones who looked serviceable in the loss. Dylan Larkin is an olympian, which we were fairly confident would happen, but shockingly, Simon Edvinsson was left off the roster for Team Sweden. #LGRW

  1. How about a forward checking someone. Did they think they were playing in a church league. I have never been this disappointed with the Red Wings.i know no one likes hearing this but move the first line down.

  2. Ya rough… no reason to panick. But I like Coach mixing up lines a bit. Let's see how it changes the players' attitudes…. #LGRW

  3. Larkin seemed so “meh” in the televised shift change when speaking about how they were playing. Didn’t seem like a fired up captain and not what I’d call inspirational or motivating. He’s been great for us in patches this season but the guy needs to be a consistent bar for the team.

  4. Tbh I think half of Raymonds struggles have been a lack luster center. Sorry I said it. Captain has not been playing hard out of the gates and setting the tone. Yes he is putting team on his back in (some) games, but it is in the 2nd half. See more diving than driving from larkin so far. Hard take/hot take, but he whined last year they didnt get a spark and absolutely the guy who should be providing it!

  5. Larkin sucks right now, hate to say it but if he cant engage physically and stop diving looking for penalties they need to trade him. He cant be a no show for as long as he has been, and if its an injury, it doesnt matter because that means hes injured again around the same time of the year and has become a liability for this team. Hes not skating ou there literally as soon as he gets the puck hes looking for someone else to give the puck to, thats not larkin at his best. Im not even sure what larkin at his best looks like anymore.

  6. If yer 2nd line is now your 1st line, and Andrew Copp is centering..
    the rest of the lineup can only be 3-4 liners, the Wings are now the Seattle Kraken trying to spread the depth.

  7. Chemistry rears it's ugly head yet again. We are 3 players from contention not including between the pipes.

  8. It wouldn’t bother me if none of the Wings played in the Olympics – too much opportunity for injury & they’ll come back tired from for the playoff run. I would rather have playoff games than Olympic games. My selfish opinion. #LGRW

  9. I see Rasmussen back to his old self of not checking not scoring and being 3 steps behind. Rasmussen needs to sit out for a few games.

    I watch Rasmussen play and it makes me want to change the channel.

  10. 12 shots tonight and 10 checks the other night Yzerman has the wings looking like a soccer team

  11. How are the Redwings not excited about their position in the standings and have the confidence to bring a decent performance ? It was the kind of ugly performance that undermines hopes in them becoming a playoff team this year

  12. Being realistic… its impossible to win nearly every game, unless your this years Avs. But the Pens smothered the Wings this game, but it's not the end of the season just yet. As long as thus isn't the beginning of a downward spiral… I still have faith.
