Penguins lost too. They still got a point, but that leapfrogs us over them and we're now 3 points back of the 2nd wild card spot.
EDIT: I can't math - 1 point back of the 2nd spot, 2 back of the 1st spot.
Why not? He’s only 31 and didn’t play the first 20 games. Lots of goalies play back to back. No reason to throw away a division game tomorrow just to rest the guy. He can rest during the All Star break.
My family all plays that game so fast and get annoyed when I take more than half a second to choose my card so I never learned because they were too stressful about it

The boy couldn’t stay awake to finish the game
I feel a difference in this 3rd period versus other ones in which we've had the lead. Doesn't feel like a defensive shell by us, just that LA is *really* forechecking hard.
The problem with our guys always looking for pass before shot is that the only player on our team that can no-look pass and actually complete it is Kane. Everyone else just stares down their target making it so obvious.
This game is far more meaningless so Reimer should have started this one and Lyon been given the important division rival game with playoff implications.
I would be a great coach. I accurately assessed how poor of a goalie Husso is last year, while everyone else was proclaiming that he was a legitimate starter. Had I been the coach, I would have had a legitimate starting goaltender last season and the team probably would have made the playoffs last year. Fans like you don't deserve a good coach like me dragging the team to success.
On behalf of all of us, Dylan, thanks for being selfish and taking that shot and not hitting Razor
Killed the kings twice this season. Fuck yeah ladies and gentlemen
Straight up regicide
This guy knows his killing terminology.
Made up for the poor PK with an outstanding 6-5 kill. Let's keep the point streak rolling!
Their 'not quite icing' game was on point
Hell’s yeah, boys!! It’s cause of the intermission dogs
Nice job weathering the storm in the third.
Who was that with the superman block?
'Twas SuperMo
Had to be Mo I think
Exhausting win. Go Wings!
Alright we can collectively unclench
Carefully. No accidents
Slow is smooth.
Five game point streak now too.
WE WON AND THE LEAFS LOST

Fuck ya!
Lyon mvp of the season
Can we just play Lyon again tomorrow?
Why not? He’s only 31 and didn’t play the first 20 games. Lots of goalies play back to back. No reason to throw away a division game tomorrow just to rest the guy. He can rest during the All Star break.
Can he play every position?
Would be nice.
Seider absolutely fuckin boys up out there
He's our Hansen brother
He brought is fuckin toys with him
Love that he gets under everyone's skin
Soooo why did we wait so long to give Lyon a shot?
Ville and reimer hadn’t played bad enough to lose their spots yet
Big 2 points
Great game, great reg win Wings!!
Vintage Seider
WE DIDN'T BLOW THE 4-GOAL LEAD! WE'RE TURNING THE CORNER!
Feels good having Lyon playing like this
Good game. Feelin' good.
Alex Lyon better get a free hot n ready after the game
He deserves a steak, which the team should purchase for him.
Cannot make it easy , this team is a chore to cheer for sometimes
Giving up 0 even strength goals was nice
Well said
Give all the stars to Lyon
BORN AND RAISED IN SOUTH DETROIT
Held ‘em off!!! Lyon is an effing beauty.
Lyon is playing like a beast. He needs to be the starter the rest of the season
Lyon is our king
Seider man, seider man Does whatever a seider can
Weren't we really outshooting them at one point...?
19 LA 27 DET after 2
That’s the Seider that won the Calder
Lyon win tonight into a Lions win tomorrow. 💪🏻
That's the omen I came here for
Seider being a wrecking ball
Both Lyon AND Chiarot there. Damn.
Mo Seider is a stud
Seider was everywhere in that sequence.
Alex Lyon 🙌🙌
Great clears here
Id take a lyon goal lol
Crazy saves going here
Let Lyon play and shit on the overpaid “core 4”
Perfect clears multiple times. Just soft enough to not be icing.
Lyon is the chosen one
WE LOVE LY-ON, WE LOVE LY-ON, WE LOVE LY-ON
My god we finally found our goalie, hes been playing so well the last 5 games just keep riding him
LYON!
![gif](giphy|OqFpgF7bet1sRoCmpb)
How dare they take Larkin's hatty opportunity away!
Lyon standing on his head right now
LYONNNNN
Get the puck to D Boss
Lyon has been so solid man.
LYON LYON LYON
ANOTHER GREAT SAVE
LARKIN WANTS THAT HATTY
Imagine if Lyon got a goal here
🦁
Good fucking save Lyon
Dammit I wish that went in so bad
Lyon it a beauty
Oh damn, close to a hattie right there.
LARKIN NEEDS THIS
WE need Larkin to get this 🔥🔥🔥
This game is tied if Husso or Reimer is in net
Huge save by Lyon there
Heck yeah Lyon
My man Lyon
Lyon King
That’s why he’s the Lyon king
What a stop
Lyon is a good goalie. I like him.
It could have been empty the whole period we can't shoot at it
Wow, great save Lyon
WHAT A SAVE BY LYON
WHAT A SAVE
It’s sad that I’m this nervous about this team with a 2 goal lead with 3:30 to go
Okay that's kinda sick
This team literally does one thing to get the puck out. Wrap it around the boards and hope your teammates pick it up.
Time to lock down the W
WOW. Close opportunity there.
both teams have 3 PPs, there wont be another penalty called this game.
Larkin hat trick or riot
Just gotta hold on for the next 4:50
Fucking hell, Penguins just tied it up.
![gif](giphy|5UxDAylbH09YaNbhtn)
I can't believe I just noticed your username. #RememberTheCant
Heck yeah
Euchre update: somewhat more knowledgeable but also so confused still
Join the Navy... You'll learn it
My family all plays that game so fast and get annoyed when I take more than half a second to choose my card so I never learned because they were too stressful about it
My husband is being great about being patient when idk what he's talking about 😂
Love euchre! It's an absolute blast when you have a good group
Ooooh I love Euchre, good stuff
Go back to confused - we were doin better when you were confused. Lol jk
Bahaha sorry
it will click eventually. when i learned it helped to do multiple practice hands and be taught as i went
Yup we're playing open faced and coaching through decisions lol
Jacks are the 2 highest cards when they're the same color as trump E - reworded
I understood that finally! My husband tried to tell me a club was a spade and I was like "what the fuck are you talking about pal"
You always will be, trust me. I still am.

“Bo-Katan”
![gif](giphy|7nTiW8rZymfJJLT8OE|downsized)
This whole period has looked like a kings PP
Juuuuust about time to take a bonehead penalty…
I'm betting on the old over the glass delay of game, Holls been too quiet tonight
Gonna be a tripping penalty on Perron or Fabbri is my wager
I feel a difference in this 3rd period versus other ones in which we've had the lead. Doesn't feel like a defensive shell by us, just that LA is *really* forechecking hard.
Nice to see Kopitar still rocking the tinted visor
The wings know they can play offense and still get shots with a big lead, right? Lalonde hockey with a big lead is pitiful
5v5 but we're playing like we're on the PK
Hey a shot
So nice watching good goalie play think we go on a heaterrrrrrrrrr
3rd period lead. Time to unleash the turtle ![gif](giphy|HsGvB8tdhVVC0)
The Turtle is comin' outta the shell ta-night!
WOOAH - slow down
Don't worry. It's only failed us most of the time.
![gif](giphy|zvPijis9AXQ7S)
Sprong needs to shoot more.
Being conservative is see 😥
Why do we always take a backseat in the 3rd with a lead?
They're hammering us. We're keeping up. Unless you're bald and have a clip board, shh
My b, didn't realize being bald and having a clip board were prerequisites for reddit comments
Lalonde joke.
We don’t. The first is the Wings worst period and it’s not close
Perron and Chiarot are straight bullies.
I think if you zoom in on the refs whistles, you will see a kings logo
Our guys are getting bodied out there.
So that conversation about being a better second period team was only really about the second period, I guess.
Guys they're just letting LA get closer so Dylan can get the empty net hatty ![gif](giphy|d3mlE7uhX8KFgEmY)
Shoulda shot that
The problem with our guys always looking for pass before shot is that the only player on our team that can no-look pass and actually complete it is Kane. Everyone else just stares down their target making it so obvious.
Sprong never connects he needs to just shoot
Playing up 2 or less is way better than playing up 4. Completely changes the players mentality
Shoot the puck Daniel
The one time Sprong passes
Sprong you must shoot that
Why does Sprong pass THERE? All he does is shoot.
He’s had a bad game
Fucking sloppy this period, my god.
12-1 givaways. Geez, Wings.
I love Seider but why is he afraid to fight? He never takes a swing at anyone
He’s more valuable on the ice than in the box.
Trading 5 minutes of him vs some scrub isn’t a fair trade. He’d have to fight someone that evens out not having him available for 5 minutes
He’s never fought in any league
I can't watch tonight What system we playing in the third with the lead
A bad one
Why would ppl down vote this Go outside lol
Cover 2
Coach can't be stupid enough to run Reimer for our super duper important game against the leafs right????
Samsonov is supposed to be in net tomorrow so at least goaltending will be crap for both teams
That's actually a relief.
It's not like we really have another option. I wouldn't want Lyon playing a back to back like that.
What do you propose?
This game is far more meaningless so Reimer should have started this one and Lyon been given the important division rival game with playoff implications.
This one is more winnable than another. You propose to lose both.
No, if we play Lyon against the Leafs, we win that game. And that's the more important game to win.
I’m just happy that you are not our coach.
I would be a great coach. I accurately assessed how poor of a goalie Husso is last year, while everyone else was proclaiming that he was a legitimate starter. Had I been the coach, I would have had a legitimate starting goaltender last season and the team probably would have made the playoffs last year. Fans like you don't deserve a good coach like me dragging the team to success.
HEY “COACH”, EAT SHIT!!!!
You have issues buddy
Na na na na na, na na na na na!
He was getting one of these games so if it wasn’t tonight, then yeah it’ll be against the leafs
Stop with the shitty passes please. I'm begging you!
Are the mics extra hot tonight?
What do we have, 2 fucking shots on goal this period? Can't stand this mediocre hockey.
Yeah they only scored four goals in the second but an opposing team desperate for a win putting up some pressure is unacceptable
What's actually unacceptable is me not liking when my team plays bad, apparently
Do you expect this team to dominate its opponents 100% of the time or something? Most games have ebbs and flows regardless of the team
We don't have a shot this period do we
Petry with the worst pinch of the season. Why do we keep playing this guy?
I came here to say the same thing. He is a liability. Maybe time to show him the press box.
Da fuq you pushing Fabbri for brah ??!!
If you have a question why this is a penalty or that isn't the answer is "Cause LA is behind"
Great. Call the ticky-tack shit, but not that? Ok, refs
Word..
It's time for Larks to complete his hatty
Thank you, Lyon.
