Detroit blew out Vancouver twice this year. He's probably basing his entire opinion of the Wings on those two games.

Someone already posted some of it for me.
EDIT - Here's some stats I had already posted for you:
And what you will see with Detroit is top level coaching and a system that will grind east coast style offences to a halt. The possession game. They won't be able to do those quick counterattacks when you are being grinded against the boards with the defence in pinch in/covered by winger positioning.
Honestly it's the same thing every time and you guys keep fueling him.
Tabris comes in says something nobody agrees with.
Everyone laughs or calls him out
Tabris continues saying it
Everyone continues to laugh or try to argue with him to no avail for a few pages.

the conference with the most skilled players tend to score more than the conference with less skilled players
ITS MAGIC
and then
it balances out with BETTER DEFENSE

well fuck....Reimer can't do shit on breakaways
I agree with you, Kat_Man. Shit is more boring than watching the Nashville Predators.

Fucking ridiculous how Stamkos roofed it from that close.

Actually pretty unusual for this year. That was by far the best one he's scored.
All I see is an aging core that will be another year older. Detroit would have been scary coming over 5-7 years ago. Right now zero fucks are given.
Those numbers I posted are points won in East-vs-West matches though, not goals.

Newsflash: We play the exact same system since our coach and his playbook are from Detroit.

We're posting from our smart phones.

I've been hanging out at boxstretchhockey.com, it's all the rage

Banning Tabris would be a much simpler solution.

East has more of the elite forwards, but that doesn't mean the forwards are better on average. The higher GF could be due to slightly worse defending, goaltending, or just different coaching. Or yeah, more skilled forwards.
But it's impossible to know without inter-conference play. For the last several years the West has been, without a doubt, the superior conference on average. The East has narrowed that gap, though, and maybe even closed it altogether.
Regardless, Detroit is not going to do any better next season in the East unless they address their problems.

Where the fuck has this Lightning team been all season?
Hey, Monty. You gonna step up to the plate again?
Sorry I don't know what you mean. Can you clarify?

Gonna defend him?
Only way to solve this is to come back to this thread in 2014.
But I don't want any excuses like "I didn't realize that Detroit would have some no names come up through their system and score a bunch of goals on my shitty team.". You take the onus on of not knowing what you're talking about with hockey.

Naah Mont already discovered that Tabris puts this on himself. He saw the light.
Nah I only felt that way before because it seemed people were unfairly bullying him. Here people are disagreeing with him and being generally civil about it (Red_Man pushing it but who cares).
You first.

I have to break my anger and silence to just laugh for a minute at some of these "predictions" by Tabris for Detroit...... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
*OK, going back to being miserable....
Edit: as much as I would like it, Detroit is going nowhere my friend even if they somehow make it by winning these last three games.

Yeah, I don't mind what anyone's doing here. I don't mind people disagreeing with me. I actually like to debate, especially when someone will get into instead of just waving it off. Socreges and CCF23 (depending on his mood) is great for that.
Red_Man and Dastardly take it too far with the name calling, a bit overboard and immature.
You should be less worried about Detroit and more worried about a closing window with two twins in the twilight of their careers.
