And how, you’re wondering, did it occur? Ready. Set. Vomit.
In addition to contributing two goals and one assist in Tuesday’s 5-4 victory at Vancouver, Datsyuk also prevented the Canucks from scoring.
“I have blocked shot,” he said today. “I’m surprised myself, too. Today, it’s hard to put on skates.”
According to people who lie professionally, AKA the Red Wing coaches and trainers, Datsyuk is, umm, good to go. Kinda like last year’s Finals, I guess.
Oh, and Jimmah’s starting tomorrow. Maltby and Home Keys will be healthy scratches.
And…speaking of the Finals? Uncle Mike’s got some humor for you. Gather the kids because this is just plain funny.
“I told you that last year in the playoffs, when he got a shot in the foot, too, and it ended up being a hole in his thigh, so you can’t trust me one bit,’’ Babcock joked. “No, he got a shot in the foot and he should go. He just was sore today and it wasn’t going to be comfortable getting his skate on.’’
Ha ha. Mothefu**er’s got jokes.

Whatever. Just cut off the foot and give him a peg-leg, no matter how serious it is.

You know what I love about you this young season, C3PO? Your idiocy is pointed inwards at the suddenly dysfunctional Dead Things organisation. So much funnier to watch you take out your heroes, rather than other teams. You’re such a classy guy, you dumbass military lunkhead.

dynastical Red Wings organization
fixed that for you
Hate on the military, you broken condom. Also, learn to speak German and Heil the Fuhrer.

Throwing in the towel so soon?
Anyways, nothing like coming home from a 12 hour day to a report like this.

yeah Mark, I dumped Rask,really thought he would do good,but,...

The next game at The Joe will feature an on ice heart-attack on captain Nicklas Lidstrom, in front of 20066 people.
When everybody is crying their asses off, Uncle Mike (as in that dirty old fat drunken uncle that shows up once an year at Christmas) will tell everyone it was a practical joke, via Jumbotron.

Yeah, so I was wrong a little bit, but look at the time, I posted this when we were behind so give me some kind of credit.

Dats has a hole in his thigh? So does Karen.

I’m guessing, Yes?

“I have blocked shot,” he said today. “I’m surprised myself, too.”
Is “blocked shot” a new form of VD or other communicable disease?
Posted by CaptainDennisPolonich from Warm and sunny SoCal on 10/28/09 at 06:41 PM ET
At this point in the year, if he needs a day or 3 to heal… it is what it is. Don’t rush just cause we’re on a one game winning streak now or anything.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 10/28/09 at 07:00 PM ET
Prolly just a flesh wound. No worries. None at all.
Set em up Voox.
Posted by Rumbear from Top O da Hasek, when in doubt, pinky out on 10/28/09 at 07:07 PM ET
Yeah, I noticed the play that I’m pretty sure he got hurt on. If I remember right it was in the 3rd period, he was near the bottom of the left faceoff circle as the Canucks were attacking. He kinda buckled when it hit him and I thought oh no, here we go, but I didn’t notice any limp for the remainder of the game. Just hope his foot fits in his skate.

Some consolation is tonight’s Live Blog should be epic, Chief.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 10/28/09 at 07:16 PM ET
Yeah, John W. I remember the shot too and panicking for a half-second. I thought it was nothing after he skated it off.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 10/28/09 at 07:20 PM ET
he’ll be ready for game one.
Posted by Itrusteddrrahmani from Nyc by way of A2 on 10/28/09 at 07:28 PM ET
Calgary scores 2 in the first 70 seconds against the Dive.
Posted by HockeyTownTodd on 10/28/09 at 08:43 PM ET
I saw him take what I assume was that shot in the 3rd and was worried about it when it happened. He skated off without showing any ill effects so I thought no more of it. I hope it isn’t serious. Figures though…
Posted by Bent from The U.P. on 10/28/09 at 09:07 PM ET
Guess I should have read some of the comments more thoroughly, I basically repeated everything John W. said. I wasn’t copying, honest!
Posted by Bent from The U.P. on 10/28/09 at 09:08 PM ET
Maybe it’s all the Guinness but I think you’re all just freaking a little bit. Maybe I make it tattoo..
“I’m a shooter now, shooter,” Datsyuk said. “I’m happy to shoot. I need more shoot. I’m looking forward to shoot. Sometimes I shoot, sometimes I forget I need to shoot—maybe I make it tattoo.”
Pure poetry….

Yes sir, time to fire that bitch up.
Posted by monkey from here to Timbuktu on 10/28/09 at 09:23 PM ET
Like everyone, I saw the play too and was surprised to see Dats play so well for the rest of the game. It probably swelled after he took his skate off. But yea, MO is right. Think bigger and let him heal. I’m sure he’s itching to go, especially since he’s a tattooed shooter.
From last post, but I need to clear something up.
I’ve been called worse by better.
Cap’n Dennis. This a good insult. But it’s unwarranted. That post, as my hyper-butch-bitch TDT pointed out, actually I don’t know what the fuch he said.
Basically, if I was insulting anyone they would know it. I’m not shy. But that post was for shits and giggles. I wasn’t actually schematize the range of reactions people were having in three sentences. That’s Chief’s gift.

Yeah, John W. I remember the shot too and panicking for a half-second.
I pretty much panic on every shot block and fight after what we’ve gone through the last year or so. Even more so when we have Franzen finish a game with little to no indication anything is wrong, only to find out he’s gone 4 months.
Posted by John W. from a bubble wrap cocoon on 10/28/09 at 10:30 PM ET

Good game in Calagry right now.

Week 4 Power Rankings
21. (20) Detroit Red Wings (4-4-2): The Wings are still kind of treading water but got a boost from goaltender Jimmy Howard, who relieved Chris Osgood on Tuesday in Vancouver.
1. (3) Colorado Avalanche (10-1-2): Goaltender Craig Anderson wins the 13-game MVP with his 10 wins, 1.97 goals-against average and .940 save percentage.
2. (1) Pittsburgh Penguins (10-2-0): The Penguins reached 10 wins first in the league, a few hours before the Avalanche did. Sidney Crosby had three goals against Montreal.

Just wanted to share this little ditty from the NHL.com game “preview”
On a roster that currently looks like the proverbial leaderboard in a golf tournament with all the minuses, Nicklas Lidstrom leads the Wings with a plus-4.

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. Uncle Mike should give the fans a kiss. I always like a kiss when somebody’s pulling my doodle.
Man’s a better liar than Al Lasker.

I saw Pasha take that slapper off the foot, winced, and forgot about it until now….feck.
Just a flesh wound.
Posted by Animal Drew from A Nightmare on Helm Street on 10/29/09 at 07:35 AM ET
As a precautionary measure, I suggest we take the Hasek out of mothballs to the refit facility. Anyone still curled up inside might want to make for the exits.
EGAD.
Red Wings 09-10 is starting to resemble the proverbial SNAFU.

You’re such a classy guy, you dumbass military lunkhead
Hector, usually such asinine comments like that are ignored.
But what the military does, and who these people are, really hit home this past week for me. You see, I lost a former student in Afghanistan. It’s the first time as a teacher I’ve ever had to deal with that. And it really puts things in perspective.
And this isn’t about me, it’s about them, the military. Chief and others like him do more ‘real’ work every day then either one of us could even fathom in a lifetime. To call our military personally “dumbasses” and “lunkheads” is so detached from reality it boggles the mind.
So, at the risk of getting banned, I’ll go ahead anyways: F*** off you massive piece of sh**.

Who’ll get me plane tickets for Edmonton, or for the next home game (or, fuch, I’m now 21, take me to Vegas, baby!)?
And I hope I’ll be a zetter man at 21 than I was at 20.

The Oil are riddled with the flu/H1N1 or something. The Wings better win and not catch any flu bug/mad cow or any of that nonsense.

I apologize osrt. As TDT pointed out, I’ve been bitchy, especially yesterday.
Hector, get your fuching ingorant ass to Arlington National Cemetery. Spend the day there walking around. Listen to the families of the newly dead sobbing at the loss of their loved ones. Loved ones who died protecting the liberty and freedom you enjoy but obviously do not deserve. Make that trip Hector. And if after that trip you do not feel compelled to come back to A2Y and apologize to the Chief, then I feel sorry for you because you lack even the tiniest shred of humanity. Enjoy rotting in hell.
There, is that less bitchy?
