"Just Win" is the motto for the Detroit Red Wings, and they did just that against the Tampa Bay Lightning!

0:00.0	Welcome to the winged wheel podcast. Here to talk all things hockey are your hosts Brad
0:10.8	Crisco, Ryan Hanna, and Evan Lopsinger.
0:13.4	If you believe in the just win mantra, the hashtag just win bit we've been doing on the show, then you have to believe
0:26.3	in the moment that is Jeff Petrie being the reason why the Red Wings didn't go down 3-2 in that Tampa Bay game. I don't care how mad you are that he was in over
0:36.2	motto when Wollman came back. I don't care how mad you are at how bad he's been. I don't care how mad
0:40.5	you are about his deployment. We've talked at length on this show about
0:44.2	you know what Jeff Petrie's been able to do on the ice and whether or not he should
0:47.3	have all that ice time. Our opinions aren't a secret. But if you believe in

1:13.4	He's so concerned about the details.
1:16.2	We talked at length last episode.
1:18.0	The process for the first time in a long time,
1:20.4	it's not about the process.
1:21.6	It's just about the results. I don't care how you do it. I don't care if you have one skate on and your helmet on backwards. If you win the game, that's what matters. I think that's what the Red Wings have been doing, but they won the game. That's what matters. Yeah, it's been a while since we've been on the just
1:34.4	win baby mantra because they haven't been.
1:36.8	It's hard to be on that one they don't do it.
