3 Consecutive Loses

The Red Wings Loose once again, for the 3rd consecutive game to the Blue Jackets last night.
In all fairness, it would have been really surprising had the Wings won with all that was stacked against them.
For starters - Nicklas Lidstrom Pavel Datsyuk were both suspended from the game for not appearing in the all star game over the weekend due to injuries.

Brad Stuart has broken ribs, from the last game, so he wasn’t around either, and if all that wasn’t handicap enough Zetterberg quite after the fist period (in which he played well) due to back spasms…

Its actually quite surprising to me that the Wings lost only by a point under the circumstances.
Truly, I am more worried about moral than anything else. a 3 game loosing streak is enough to influence any teams moral.

Interesting read - Kevin, from Hitting the post posted a list of What To Watch for in the Second half

its sees as if the Wings recent loosing streak is running havoc in their reputation.
