I Guess What We’re Talking About Is A Game 1 Live Blog

And here we go.

Live Blog starts now.  My commentary will go in the comment section along with all of yours.  And, honestly, I tend to pace…so don’t expect too much from me.  I’ve been home for almost two hours and have spent every minute in the Hasek Club Car. 

Again: the keys.  Power play.  Taking the violence to Bubba instead of receiving.  And, by god Dom…go frigging completely insane.  Because we dig that.

There’s that lucky bounce goal someone was just talking about…

I’ll count that hold in the zone as our lucky bounce.

Great play from Lilja standing up whichever nondescript redneck was trying to enter the zone, and a great job from Cleary drawing that penalty. liking this german beer.  The Hasek Club Car is getting rowdy.

I just hope that before this series is over, someone knocks the crap out of “Toots”. Hate that puffy-faced snot.

Eh. I knew they’d dominate and win. I don’t know what you were all worried about.

...

I’m gonna go throw up now.  But not because I was stressed. Not me.

Wings doubled their shots. No surprise. Was very happy with overall play.  Puck possession in the second and third wasn’t what it was in the first, but a good strong playoff game. 

And..no problems with Hasek’s play.

Not sure if anyone else has heard, but NASHVILLE HAS NEVER WON A PLAYOFF GAME ON THE ROAD.  The versus guys just told me.  Again.

1 down, 15 to go.

Wings win and I’m headed to the Laundry Car to wash out my shorts. Why can’t these guys do what the Pens did to Ottawa? It would save us all a lot of angst…not to mention the laundry bill.

The good news: this game is over.

The bad news: We’ve got 38 hours to wait until the next game.

Porter! Bring me all of the $6 wine you’ve got.

Bring. It. On.  They look good.  Dominated in shots.  Of course Ellis gets eight million saves, but how could you imagine anything different?  I was at a business dinner all night and had my blackberry refreshing every 30 seconds.  Zetterberg’s goal shows up and I interrupt a speech with “YES!  ZETTERBERG!”

Awesome.  3-1, Chase.  Write it down.
