I also don’t know what’s fun about blowing an 8 point lead in the standings?

If the Red Wings worked as hard during a game as they do with making excuses and celebrating moral victories they’d likely win the President’s trophy.

It’s how they’re playing which bothers me.

No compete.

Embarrassing themselves.

This Red Wings team quit whether the sunshiners want to admit it or not.

The Red Wings writers don’t want to hear the truth.

All Red Wings fans are supposed to be lemmings and not have a differing opinion.

We’re just supposed to shut up and wave Red Wings Pom Poms with the acolytes.🙄

It has to be said, every time I hear a player describe this as a fun part of the season, it makes me cringe. Fun is when you’re competing and winning. I’m not having a lot of fun right now and if the players are saying they’re having fun with the run we’re on, they’re downright lying. In fact the only thing funny at the moment is that nobody seems to want that second wild card spot but sooner or later, some team is going to do something very unfunny and snatch it away from everyone else. I wonder how “fun” thats going to be.

I dont know which is worse, to be out of the playoff picture by Feb/Mar, as we’ve been used to in seasons up to now, or being a part of it without a prayer – which is torture and pretty far from being fun. I’d like these guys to stop having “fun” and start competing. Now that would be fun.

“Is losing fun?”
“huh?”
“IS LOSING FUN?”
“No.”
“Then what are you having fun for?”
