  1. Elmer should be a big hitter on the ice. Instead he avoids hitting people. LOL Imagine if he finished his checks? Oh well.

  2. Keep shooting Elmer, please Don’t pass it to Rasmussen to stand on the puck behind the net! 😂

  3. The only practical way that the Wings can continue winning is skate hard and fast, keeping up with the opponent always, or put a body on the opponent's threat players, assuming that they're out-skating the Wings. When the Bruins beat the Wings the other day, had the Wings slowed down the Bruins skaters by putting a body on them and checking them hard into the boards, the results of that game may have been different….. I think the Bruins lost respect for the Wings when the Wings didn't pay them back with hard body checks….

  4. The Wings need to have a couple of Kronwall types on the roster in the event the opponent, like the Bruins, rough them up with board checks…

  5. Elmer has been playing with a lot more confidence this year. His board work and puck protection is insane, I really liked that Soder, Ras, JVR line that was running earlier in the season. Let’s win this one tonight boys! LGRW
