analysis of Red Wings...

now for my analysis,of the 2011-2012 Detroit Red Wings:first of all,the Red Wings were mostly streaky,and had trouble winning consistently,on the road(had record:17-21-3)... most of the season they had the best record,in the NHL,or was near the top,and yet they seemed to be inconsistent,in February,March,and April... their power play was very bad,in last 35 games,going from 5th,in NHL,in December,to mid-20's,in March,and April... however,they had major injuries,to major starters,in the last two months,of the season,and their goaltending went from almost the top of the NHL,when Jimmy Howard broke a finger on his blocker hand,and then he had a tender groin,until mid-March,and his timing was was way off,as the playoffs approached... in February,and March,the Red Wings had a great deal of players,up from Grand Rapids,on the roster,like in 2009-2010,as the Red Wings struggled,winning games,and simply hoping to get healthy,for the Stanley Cup playoffs... now for the short playoff run,against Nashville:they were not ready to play,against Nashville,and got basically hammered,like a tent stake into granite... the last three games,of the horrid series,was the Red Wings basically playing like the Three Stooges,and the Keystone Kops combined,making mistakes at critical times,in all three losses,and they were simply bad...
