They are just disinterested. They'll wake up at playoff time, however I'm not sure that their forwards are as defensibly sounds as in past years. They seem to not be as instinctual with their coverage in front of their own net. Too many times when they were playing at the top of their game this year there were too many defensive breakdowns.For fuck sake Wings. Not even 10 minutes into the game and you are down 0-3. THis team won't last long in the playoffs.
The wings will live and die by their ability to control the puck and by not letting the other team get a sniff at their net. They can do this when the game is being played at a full gallop, not this trotting around. This is where they shine, when plays are made without being given much time to think, but if they hang Howard out to dry they won't be hoisting any cup.
