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.

Ever since Pavel stopped using the green Reebok “O” stick, he’s been on FIRE

Now let’s see how sleepy Conklin is. Columbus is skating Ambien.

Finally, 1-nil Wings. Datsyuk from Holmstrom and Hossa at 3:45 of the third.

Looks like the Pens are off the schnide. 3-0 over Atlanta in the 3rd.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 01/06/09 at 09:29 PM ET
Hey ambien kept me sane when I traveled for a living!
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 09:29 PM ET
Hoss! I’m telling ya, break open the dam, bitches!
Posted by clemshady from Greenwood, SC on 01/06/09 at 09:30 PM ET
sweet hossa
Posted by RWBill from jabbing a six inch sewing needle into my eye. on 01/06/09 at 09:30 PM ET
There’s a goal for Hossa. That has to be a relief for him.

That post is what it took for Hoss to come off his schnide? Creepy.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 09:31 PM ET
Big Hoss, with the primary assist going to Homer’s big fat ass!

Nice to quote you again, Baroque. Hello to the rest of the bitches.
I picked a nice time to drop in as we’ve got a couple under our belt now, and the Wings scored twice too.

Zetterberg with the insurance goal please.
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 01/06/09 at 09:32 PM ET
Anyone else worried that the Wings started playing their good 10 minutes too early...?
Posted by HockeyTownTodd from upset when blogs don’t live up to my expectations on 01/06/09 at 09:33 PM ET
Heh, I love when Mick talks to himself. Ha!
Posted by clemshady from Greenwood, SC on 01/06/09 at 09:34 PM ET
Phone call from Lil Gary finally got through.
Posted by HockeyJoe from Upstate New York on 01/06/09 at 09:35 PM ET
You guys may have missed it, but Mick just said “what a horrible *#$%@& call”
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 01/06/09 at 09:35 PM ET
time for a Shortie, and I’m not talkin’ skank (this time)

That’s makin’ up for Gabe being AWOL.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 09:35 PM ET
Did you all see the video clip on the KK Page of the linesman yappin at someone about “keep your EFFING head up” after he got dumped?
Classic.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 09:37 PM ET
In other action, after two periods, Colorado 2, Nashville 1.
Who is rooting for:
A: Avalanche
B. Predators
C. Meteor impact in Nashville.
Posted by Baroque from Michigan on 01/06/09 at 09:37 PM ET
Has Conks looked this good all night? Because he looks on top of it right now!
Posted by clemshady from Greenwood, SC on 01/06/09 at 09:37 PM ET
PEN DET Lidstrom for hooking with 12:45 left in the third. I thought it was a soft penalty but the cross-check by Tyutin was just as soft. An even up penalty for sure.
Posted by SYF from Las Vegas, NV on 01/06/09 at 09:38 PM ET
D. Meteor impact in Nashville AND Denver.
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 01/06/09 at 09:39 PM ET
It’s encouraging to see Sammy actually putting his shots on the net now.
Posted by HockeyJoe from Upstate New York on 01/06/09 at 09:39 PM ET

Yes, he has. He had a fabulous save on Peca (I think) in the first period that should make the highlights.

Classic. I’d like to take out Bubba, but then where would Hamilton/GTA get its team from?
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 01/06/09 at 09:40 PM ET
Conks can thank Freddy Modin for takin his iron pills too
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 09:41 PM ET

Game is in Nashville. Is Denver just on general principles? :D
Chicago smacking Phoenix upside their little puppy heads. 4-0 already with time still left in the first.
Posted by Baroque from Michigan on 01/06/09 at 09:42 PM ET
That was the only highlight I saw before the 3rd period started. With Conk’s playing well and (hopefully) Ozzie turning it around, I’m hoping the goaltender troubles are behind us. Too bad I’m not that optimistic.
Posted by clemshady from Greenwood, SC on 01/06/09 at 09:42 PM ET
“Nine? Woops”. Keep shotgunning beers during the commercial breaks Murph.

Well, in all fairness… their 1sts are a damn blitzkrieg lately.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 01/06/09 at 09:43 PM ET
In my less than humble opinion, shotgunning is about the only reason to have canned beer really.

You betcha.
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 01/06/09 at 09:45 PM ET
‘Hal is alive and well’. I’m pretty sure that’s the only ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ reference ever heard during a hockey game. Eesh.

Which reminds me...back in a minute.

Oh, I know. It’s easy to see why the fans are coming back.
I wonder if the Lions would go through a similar rebirth whenever William C. Ford finally shuffles off this mortal coil? For the sake of the Lions fans I know I’d like to think so. I hope it doesn’t take a death. That’s a bit morbid.
Posted by Baroque from Michigan on 01/06/09 at 09:47 PM ET
Evening bitches! Sorry for the late game driveby blogging… battery on the lappy is nearly dead so this is it for me tonight. And of course it happens on the only night Baroque is on. And of course I have to miss a fun live blog. booo.
See you all next game. Go Wings!
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 01/06/09 at 09:48 PM ET
As a Lions fan, I’m pretty sure that WCF is Satan’s right hand man. Don’t feel too badly about it, Baroque.

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
