Wow thats a whole lot of excuses you got there.
The Wings got beat by the better team on the ice last night. A homer using skirt? No. Facts are facts they have lost 3 of 4 to the Sharks this season.?

Since we are throwing out excuses the only game the wings won against the sharks this year was when atleast half of the defense was on call up from the minors and the team was playing horrible. If the team was healthy you had a chance to go 0-4. Will it translate in the playoffs I dont know. The Sharks are the hot team right now. I think there is a chance Howard didnt play because they didnt want him facing a team in the playoffs he had lost 3 of 4 to and that was the potential reason behind the decision. Maybe not, but its a possibility. Many of the goalies in the league are getting no nights off. As I said this was a 4 point game instead of 87-80 its 85-82. If the wings end up the third or fourth seed and play a tougher opponent it would matter then. It was just a theory, but glad it got some conversation going.
