Wow. Big day. For the first time in three years, a savant actually used the word “brah” in the comment section.
It threw us all for a loop, but I think we’ll recover.
When? Now.
Just in time for the Live Blog Bitches. BJ’s for all, courtesy of Rick Nash.

Oh. We’re gonna have to see that one again.

Whip it out the Conk.
Or $hit luck to make the save.... flip the coin.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 07:53 PM ET
Holy F*cking Sh*t.
Conk BLOCKED.
Posted by Alzy from Innisfail, Alberta, Canada on 01/06/09 at 07:53 PM ET
Least on Sammy’s behalf, that one was tipped into the netting, for a change.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 07:54 PM ET
I wants the replay! Or else it gets the hose again!

What’s the old saying about penalty killing? That your goalie has the best PK’er?
Damn. CONK-BLOCKED.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 01/06/09 at 07:55 PM ET
Isn’t he still up there in points though?
Zero points in five of the last six games. Three assists at Wrigley.
Still second on the team tho...I agree with Chief and Andrew, he is due.
Posted by eyesris from Chestertown, MD on 01/06/09 at 07:55 PM ET
No way Conklin made that save.
Also, I’d say Z is due more than Hossa.

The other 18 can relax, no matter how bad it looks, now that Baroque is back to entertain us.
Welcome back Baroque,
You were missed

Errrrr....none of you saw fit to mention this to me?
It through us all for a loop
Right there on the front page for all the world to see. DAMMIT.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 01/06/09 at 07:56 PM ET
Wow. Conks.
Posted by monkey from Waiting for the lambs to stop screaming on 01/06/09 at 07:56 PM ET
Game 6 finals anyone? What a replay.
Posted by eyesris from Chestertown, MD on 01/06/09 at 07:56 PM ET
Oh my, goodness gracious
I love Mickey.

Good thing Peca’s not a goal scorer or it’s one zip. He had all day so to speak.
Send Peca a Christmas card this year Ty

I’ve had six bottles of eight percent and no dinner. This is pretty much what my childhood was like when I’d been bad.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from a foreign computer on 01/06/09 at 07:51 PM ET
And I got grief for telling how my dad shared his PBR and porn with us by the furnace in the basement on cold Shiawassee County winter nights… or summer evenings.
I’ve gotta ask, what did you get when you were Good?
Posted by RWBill from jabbing a six inch sewing needle into my eye. on 01/06/09 at 07:58 PM ET
Stu getting “repairs”, sounds like me might be back?
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 07:58 PM ET
Chief, by now the 19 know what you mean whether you actually say it or not.
Posted by calquake on 01/06/09 at 07:58 PM ET
It’s so much more relaxing watching a game when you already know how it ends and can tell when a goal is coming because you looked at the box score.
Resume breathing ... Wow.

I’m sorry man, I saw it right away, but didn’t want to be the spelling nazi. Consider me warned.

Um...I hope you only had sisters...or brothers....cripes, that looks bad with whomever you were sharing it with.
Posted by eyesris from Chestertown, MD on 01/06/09 at 08:00 PM ET
STOP THE TURNOVERS, ALREADY!!!
ONE OF MY RESOLUTIONS IS TO LAY OFF THE BAKED GOODS!
Posted by Baroque from Michigan on 01/06/09 at 08:00 PM ET
Spelling, grammar… same difference right?
At least in a live blog I blame it on watching the game while typing....
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 08:01 PM ET
Holy crap guys, move the damn puck forward!
Posted by Alzy from Innisfail, Alberta, Canada on 01/06/09 at 08:01 PM ET
Typos happen. Homophones are slippery little devils.
Posted by Baroque from Michigan on 01/06/09 at 08:03 PM ET
Second period will be better...we (and especially Pavs) will have the wind assisting us.
Posted by The Hurricane on 01/06/09 at 08:04 PM ET
Homophones are slippery little devils.
Now why would we bring Dive fans into this?

I blame all my spelling and grammatical errors on my iphone keyboard. Other times its just the booze

Then they unlocked the chains and left sharp objects out in the open, Bill.
Oh, I’m back, BTW. Happiness, as John Lennon said, is a cold beer.
What? Happiness is a Conkblock? Are you sure?
I think happiness is a faster machine than the one I’m currently on. On the Information Superhighway, it’s a ‘72 Pinto with bald tires and an oil filter that hasn’t been changed in years..
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from a foreign computer on 01/06/09 at 08:04 PM ET
Line changes are looking a little clumsy....
Like nobody knows who they are supposed to be playing with,
nor who they are replacing.
Posted by HockeyTownTodd from upset when blogs dont live up to my expectations on 01/06/09 at 08:06 PM ET
You guys should all know that I’ll be making a special Andrew-related announcement tomorrow morning here on A2Y.
Oh, and those of you in the DC area? Leave your calendars open Thursday night.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 01/06/09 at 08:07 PM ET
so, because I’m a cheap bastard… anyone have a feed?
there’s always a feed at atdhe.net
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 01/06/09 at 08:07 PM ET
I thought a Conkblonk meant blueballs for someone?
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 08:07 PM ET
See, that is what Peca is good at. Dumping someone like Hoss on his arse.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 08:08 PM ET
Can you say “old NHL?”
This is New Jersey Devils trapping show being put on by the BJs.
Posted by Alzy from Innisfail, Alberta, Canada on 01/06/09 at 08:09 PM ET
That was kind of a disjointed period.
Kronwall:
You may be unaware of this, but you can’t actually pass a puck right through an opponent’s ankles. It’s easier to go around him.
Posted by Baroque from Michigan on 01/06/09 at 08:10 PM ET
That was pretty unimpressive...all kinds of discombobulated.
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 01/06/09 at 08:10 PM ET
Chief, I’d noticed the typo as well, but the fact is grammar and spelling restrictionism is the last refuge of a scoundrel...and I didn’t want to piss you off.
The meaning is clear, so why semanticize the wording?
How is Cheli out of breath? He barely got any ice time in the first.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from a foreign computer on 01/06/09 at 08:11 PM ET
on Rob Parker…
Fox television showed the question, prompting analyst Terry Bradshaw to say: “You’re a disgrace to your profession, my friend. You’re a total idiot.” Others chimed in.
the rest of the sports world just figured out what we have known for a loooong time.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 01/06/09 at 08:11 PM ET
Who was it that said the Wings play to the level of their opponent? Because that’s exactly what this is.
Posted by Alzy from Innisfail, Alberta, Canada on 01/06/09 at 08:12 PM ET
They said the Jackets are looking for a puck moving defenseman.
are they showcasing Lebda....
?
He has been moving up every chance he gets. Flip and Sammy have been doing a good job of covering for him.
Any word on Stu...?

Oh, it’s alright. I guess it just made me sad, plus I mentioned Toby Tyler’s circus this morning and nobody commented about it. I’ll be ok.

I almost mentioned that a bit ago, but that Devils team and THAT trap will make me furious with primal rage for ever.
It ate us up and spit us out 4 games and buh bye baby.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 08:12 PM ET
How is Cheli out of breath? He barely got any ice time in the first.
All the comments about him on new years made a point....he really has not impressed me so far this season. Someone else said it earlier, but I kinda almost sorta miss Lilija. Kinda. Almost.
Posted by eyesris from Chestertown, MD on 01/06/09 at 08:14 PM ET
I’ll be ok.
As ok as someone can be to get up at 3am to play Call of Duty.
Tee hee.

Hitch has always played this way because he always favored untalented stiffs across the board and jerkoff defensemen that had no talents other than hitting guys cheaply.
How soon we forget how gross the Dallas Stars and Flyers were.

Rainbow Six now. And when I finish that I’m buying the new SoCom. I’ll practice on that for a few weeks before I find PaulinMiami and kick his ass all over the playstation 3 network.

About Abel to Yzerman
Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that. Your suggestions and critiques are welcome:
A2Y Stuff
-----------------------------
Wanna Feel Smart?
Does confusion make you sad? When you read words like "enigma" and phrases like "Thanks Gary. Ass", do you wonder why mean people speak in languages you don't understand? Fret no longer friend! The A2Y Glossary will bring you great joy and enlightenment.
-----------------------------
How Others View The A2Y 19
"Hell, I guarantee the content co-opters at Abel to Yzerman were about to link this article under the heading “Bitter Blues Fans” again right up until they just read that last half-sentance. Thanks but no thanks, you Kukla hangers-on."
--St. Louis Game Time
"I realize it’s the slow summer season, but can this guy tone down the tough-guy histrionics? His posts are fatiguing on an otherwise excellent site."
--A2Y Fan, Eternal_Fields
"I constantly marvel at how Bill (IwoCPO) and his disciples at Abel To Yzerman can be so pompous and full of themselves throughout every regular season, but come playoff time they collapse into wavering puddles of stress and nervousness as they anxiously await the impending and unavoidable collapse of the Red Wings in the post-season."
--Mile High Hockey
"I hate them because they are better than us. Of all the frigging teams…"
--In The Cheap Seats
"It's just a shame that the most classless, uneducated, lowbrow fanbase in the league gets this sweep. Red Wing fans don't deserve their team."
--Thhom
"I really don’t care what fans or bloggers think."
--Drew Sharp
"Why is it you Detroit fans are still so classless when you have such a classy hockey team, with such a professional GM and gentlemen players? I understand that the author of this blog is a manner-less cad, but the rest of you should be better."
--A2Y Fan, Jeff Beaumont
"Have you ever *read* A2Y? Its the most opinionated, juvenile stuff i've read."
--Paul Nicholson
"I actually like the Detroit team and have a sh&% load of respect for them, but their fans are the biggest douches next to Canadians."
--KStewy, PensBlog Commenter
"Just when it looks like we have bottomed out, the 19 hit a new low."
-A2Y legend, Hockeytown Todd
"And for the record, I don't hate the Red Wings, I hate their fans."
--Douche Bag at Puck Daddy who isn't Wyshynski
"You’re nothing but a douchebag ****, c3po. Go f**k yourself, and learn something about hockey in the process. Nothing ruins my day more than seeing your byline on the kk page."
--Hector, A2Y fan, statesman, Pittsburgh Chapter of Jonas Brothers Fan Club President
"I can just imagine the kindergarten teacher’s reaction when the tyke blurts out 'Mommy says Gary Bettman is a f*cking f*ckface! He wants to give ‘Rosby the bad touch.' ”
--Bella, of the 19
"A2Y is what other blog sites aspire to be when they fail to grow up: intelligent immaturity for the juvenile genius set”
--Captain Dennis Polonich, of the 19

Blogs the Chief Likes
Yeah, right.
