A muddy track deepinthehearta. Sloggy and slushy. Haze frigging gray and underway. As it should be.
Wings win tonite? Game, set, series. Wings lose? Start shoveling coal because we’ve got ourselves a Stress Train Special.
It’s a Game 3 Live Blog. Commence your conversations. The only mandate is juvenilicity. I’ll join you when they drop the puck.
Updated 1940 EST: Wanna guess who said this?
“We don’t think much of them on a personal, character level. We think that’s to our advantage.”
Yep. Turco.

Even if Osgood wins this game and every game to the Cup all the boneheads will say it’s because of the team in front of him. Let’s be honest… the guy is Hall of Fame potential. If he gets the Cup this year and gets 400 wins… he’s a lock. Unless of course Little Gary has anything to say about it.

let’s finish strong and put a choke hold on this puppy

Alright people, let’s shut it down. No OT here. I’ve got to be at work at 4AM.

Steve, agreed. Great period of hockey. But if Doc had said, “I itch. Edzo…powder, hurry,”, you’d be liking that too. Don’t fret. We feel the same about Mick.
You’re saying Edzo being reduced to powder boy wouldn’t make you happy?
I don’t care if Joe Beninati or even Gary Thorne were calling that period: That was incredible hockey to just watch. Though I can understand why a fan would be a little nervous about it.

LOL
VS announcer begging for Modano to return for the third period.

Anybody think those “The Cup Changes Everything” are a jinx? Ovechkin, Thorton, Brodeur, Iginla, Miller…all out already or didn’t even make it in. I think the only one left who’s done one of those commercials that’s still playing is Zetterberg. It’s creepy.

Put a Viking helmet on him.

We will “finish strong”
DAL can’t keep up with the Wings speed; even in the slush.
They are getting frustrated; combine that with the fact they HAVE TO SCORE, and expect a DAL parade to the penalty box.
Write that down, and shoot me if I’m wrong.
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/12/08 at 08:53 PM ET
That was a pretty back-hander by Hudler and all, but I tell you, it used to piss me off royally when Sullivan and Little Paulie used to cherry-pick like that against the Wings.
That said…ha-ha, Mind-Srcew

Understatement Steve. This might be a little too much info for the meek, but I could swear I smell urine.

36 hits fro Dallas??! Is that for real?

Nate, that pic is f*ckin’ funny! I’m dyin’ over here! “drunk chipmunk” indeed. I don’t say it lightly, because I love the man, but that is the worst pic I’ve seen of him.

Get Edzo. Quick.
Can we can him Powder Boy from now on? I like that nickname. If that’s not harsh enough, “bitch” can easily substitute for “boy”.

What’s creepy is that commercial is playing right now.

Damn…I was hoping nobody would notice.
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/12/08 at 08:56 PM ET
Dude…that toolbag playing the guitar in the “touch of grey” commercials cracks me up every time. I’m not sure why. It’s so weird.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/12/08 at 08:57 PM ET
How long before Ott takes a stupid penalty?
Posted by J.J. from kansas on 05/12/08 at 08:58 PM ET
There it is. One game later than expected. Thanks Gary. Ass.

Thanks Jennifer, that’s comforting to know.
I feel a lot better now.

Interference? Homer? Musta looked at Turco crosseyed or something…
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/12/08 at 08:59 PM ET
Bad mojo Marty… bad mojo.

Drawn out analogy that keeps popping into my head…
The stars are out there working hard with a solid gameplan and a lot of talent. They’re getting good chances…they’re getting close to potting a few goals…but something just doesn’t seem to work for them.
They’re like the head of the chess club trying to bang the lead cheerleader. One night, he’s really on top of his game. He’s got all the lines. He’s got his look just right and he just waxed the family Roadmaster. After working it all night, he’s got the cheerleader alone in the corner of the party. They’re both drunk enough to consider what might happen. But then, just when he goes to make his move, the first string quarterback (The Wings), who’s been shotgunning beers all night and playing air guitar to Journey, comes up, grabs the cheerleader by the g-string, throws her over his shoulder, gives the chess guy the finger and pounds her out in the back of his ‘Stang.
He’s a closer. He knows that’s his piece of ass. He takes care of business.
OK…maybe I took that too far

As soon as Doc said “Richards back”? This series ended.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/12/08 at 09:00 PM ET
If you’re going to make yourself a total bitch to get a penalty called, you might want to not let a goal in during your team’s power play.
Posted by jrl123 on 05/12/08 at 09:01 PM ET
Z with the SHORTIE!
THERE’S the insurance goal!
Grizzatch!

that’s what you get for diving Marty. The hockey gods are smiling on the winged wheel
Posted by wingsfanindenver on 05/12/08 at 09:01 PM ET
Damn that could be the proverbial nail in the coffin
A Swedish Nail

I will never get tired of seeing Turckey spinning out on his ass as the puck goes in behind him. Priceless!
