Game notes:

Red Wings beat Sabres 5-3

- Wings have won 6 of their last 7. 2nd in the Atlantic as of 12/6

- Larkin 2 goals

- Wings have scored at least 1 PP goal in 7 straight games

- Raymond 18 points in last 19 games

- Alex Lyon 4 straight wins. 95.9 SV%. Kick rocks Reimer

Red wings lose to Sharks 6-5 in OT (Matt and Derek’s fault)

- Patrick Kane makes his debut playing over 16mins with veleno and ADB and getting pp time

- Husso in net

- Scoreless 1st period sharks looked better overall with 14-7 shot difference

- Wings score 4 quick goals. 3 being within 49secs of eachother

- Then…San Jose destroys us and scores 4 to tie it up where 2 were shorty goals

- NHL record 6 goals in 3:01

- Larkin breaks the tie in the 3rd, but was eventually tied again with under 90secs left in the game

- Wings lose 37secs into OT on a bad pass back to Raymond who looses it in his feet for a weird bounce and becomes a 2on0 situation for Husso

- Husso did not look well facing high danger shots and this defense really could use a boost

Red wings lose to Sens 5-1

- sens open scoring by Claude the Jew on the pp in the first 2mins of the game

- Matthew Joseph is a punk ass bitch for pushing Larkin behind the neck into Kelly who ultimately accidentally sucker punched Larkin and knocking him out starfishing on the ice. Luckily he did not need to be taken on the stretcher but it did not look good and hope he is okay.

- Matthew Joseph gets to stay in the game where the wings went on a 4-3 pp with Perron getting a 5min match penalty for going after another player not involved with Larkin

- Patrick Kane gets his first as a Red Wings with an assist by ADB and Lyon

- Refs have been super poor this 2nd period continuing from the 1st period

- Tarasenko and Kubalik score to make it 3-1. Joseph gets an assist on the Kubalik goal…

- Stutzle goal late In the 2nd to make it 4-1 with the wings down to 9 forwards

- Seider and Walman looked awful during the second period blowing assignments, missing passes and missing hits. Minus the Seider hit on Joseph

- Reimer starts the 3rd (what is a goalie at this point-derek)

- Mickey Redmond on the Christian Fischer vs Matthieu Joseph fight “This was long overdue”

- Sanderson goal with less than 4mins in the 3rd. 5-1 sens
