Blues blast Red Wings,10-3,not a typo...

Blues 10,Red Wings 3... you know that i am a fan when i saw every minute of this game... this game was a bomb after first period,and you knew that Mike Babcock was mad,because he put Joey MacDonald back in game,at start of third period... with five games to go in season,Red Wings better get their heads out of the sand,and use the time between now and Saturday afternoon,against Nashville,to get healthy,and forget this pile of cowflop of a game... what upsets me about the Red Wings,right now,is not this grand turd,of a game,because every team has these games,but it is the way that they are playing(1-2-2,in last five games,all at home,but they play Nashville,in Nashville,Minnesota,Carolina,in Carolina,and then a home and home,against Chicago... good news... they need only three points,to clinch Central Division(and they do have first tiebreaker,against Nashville--less shootout wins than Nashville,if they tie in points,but they have left the door open,for the Sharks to climb over them into second,in Western Conference,with two points(a win)tomorrow,against the Dallas Stars... second seed gets home ice,through first two rounds of NHL playoffs,and maybe home ice throughout playoffs,until Stanley Cup Finals,if Vancouver loses... that is not likely,until maybe the second round,because Vancouver has had a very good year,but even they have major injuries to their blue line,and can Roberto Luongo be "the rock",in goal,for the Canucks throughout the playoffs... his playoff record overall is just so-so,in his NHL career... if i was Detroit,i would toss this game,on the scrap heap,of team history,and get ready for five games,in ten days,in the month of April,and get back to business,of winning games... they played well enough,on defense,minus this game,on this homestand to go forward,and play well,in April... it is their offense that sucked,overall,on this homestand... they should their injured players,back on Saturday afternoon... Jimmy Howard should be back on Saturday afternoon,along with Pavel Datsyuk(and Chris Osgood could be back for the home and home,against Chicago).... right now,their weak spot is in goal,but that is not Jimmy Howard's fault... they need a steady backup,in goal,and Osgood's sports hernia injury really have hurt the Red Wings,overall,because it did not help Red Wings,with leaving them,with only one major goaltender.....
