In The Ruins Of Her Ice Water Mansion: It’s a Game 4 Live Blog

I’m tired. Tired of my wife kicking my butt in Wii bowling. To quote Appollo Creed, that’s very hard for a man of my intelligence to take. It is, however, what it is.
The solution? A Game 4 Live Blog set to yet another lyric from the greatest folk song of all time. A folk song that kicks the living hell, by the way, out of anything Bob Dylan ever did.

Not only have all the goals been scored by Swedes, all the penalties have been taken by Swedes too…even tho two of those were BS calls on Holmstrom
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/01/08 at 11:01 PM ET
WOW. 32 consecutive touches on the puck before that last goal.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/01/08 at 11:01 PM ET
No goals yet in the third? WTF? Must be fight fighting the altitude.
Posted by O’Long-apo~J’oe on 05/01/08 at 11:02 PM ET
I think they come out and try to get as few whistles as possible so it’s over as quickly as it can be.
I hope. Still smarting from February and the Injury Express.

And another Swede…Lilja…helped the Avs score their one goal with his “defense”
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/01/08 at 11:05 PM ET
Uncle Mike not letting the foot off the gas, #1 PP unit in. Maybe trying to get Z a hat-trick
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/01/08 at 11:06 PM ET
The Avs have tried Theodore, they’ve tried Budaj. Here in the third they should just pull the goalie and try with an empty net, can’t be much worse.

Addendum: Actually, nevermind. If the Dive start pulling crap, Sammy can start blasting pucks into the Dive bench.
That was intentional!
No, dude, really. I have no aim. Ask Charlie.
Posted by jrl123 on 05/01/08 at 11:06 PM ET
Wonder what Grapes would think about that scoring line, well since there are no good Canadian boys in there.
Obviously the only reason the Swedes are running roughshod on the Dive is the absence of so many good Canadian boys on the injured list…

Hanging 7 goals on the buttholes from Colorado before the end of the 2nd period…....PRICELESS.

Yeah, so I think it’s a pretty safe bet this is the last NHL game that will ever be coached by Joel “Would You Like Fries With That?” Quenneville.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 05/01/08 at 11:09 PM ET
i missed the beginning of the game. Who is Lilja in for?
Posted by wingsfanindenver on 05/01/08 at 11:10 PM ET
Nice save there by Ozzy. This game has lost any semblence of intensity.
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/01/08 at 11:10 PM ET
SHOW NO MERCY—LEAVE NO DOUBTS
Posted by wings fan in KC on 05/01/08 at 11:11 PM ET
If the Dive start pulling crap,
and so it begins…
Hammer Time!

I am actually a little pissed at the Dive for not making this a more competetive series.

WE WANT ROY! WE WANT ROY! WE WANT ROY!

SCORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sammy!
Posted by stonehands-78 from the beginning ... a WingsFan, on 05/01/08 at 11:14 PM ET
Sammy getting close to a hat trick. All Swedes all night long…
Posted by Dave on 05/01/08 at 11:14 PM ET
Sammy has a multiple goal game. It’s official: this is completely absurd.
Posted by BuzzFledderjohn on 05/01/08 at 11:14 PM ET

Too true Clark, Too True!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/01/08 at 11:15 PM ET
Total domination.
Posted by stonehands-78 from the beginning ... a WingsFan, on 05/01/08 at 11:15 PM ET
Homer Formsby would be proud!!!!!!!
/too obscure?
Posted by ScottH from Kalamazoo on 05/01/08 at 11:15 PM ET
Sammy with two? Further evidence that scoring on the Dive tonight is as easy as scoring at a Nashville family reunion.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 05/01/08 at 11:15 PM ET
It is absurd Buzz, must be why I find it so freaking appealing to my mind
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/01/08 at 11:16 PM ET
“a giveaway by Lilja”
Who’s surprised to hear that phrase? Hooray for a 7 goal lead.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/01/08 at 11:16 PM ET
Lets see, if the Wings can score while defending a 5 on 3, then absurd will have a new definition
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/01/08 at 11:17 PM ET
You *#$%@& call THAT a delay of game for a 5 on 3 in the NHL playoffs?
What a disgusting joke, regardless of score.
*#$%@& you, gary. Ass.
Posted by TeamDub from The gratch. on 05/01/08 at 11:17 PM ET
Hah, the Ass Can sounds like they just tied it up.
Posted by BuzzFledderjohn on 05/01/08 at 11:18 PM ET
Wow…the fans are really excited about that one.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 05/01/08 at 11:18 PM ET
Bond is dead.

Your latest gadget blew up his head off. You’re fired, Q. Die. thxkbai

well damn—there goes the Wings PK numbers

Red Wings,
Join me at the royal castle for supper.

Oh. A Colowado goal. How ohdinawy.
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/01/08 at 11:19 PM ET
Ozzie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by stonehands-78 from the beginning ... a WingsFan, on 05/01/08 at 11:19 PM ET
Here it is! The comeback is starting! They only need one goal every 80 seconds. It could happen.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 05/01/08 at 11:19 PM ET
I know its still a 6 goal lead, but there’s no need to get sloppy AND lazy here.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/01/08 at 11:20 PM ET
All the Dive must be skating around thinking “Just 7 more…just 7 more…”
Posted by BuzzFledderjohn on 05/01/08 at 11:20 PM ET
Wings playing like that last goal was an affront to them. Keep up the intensity.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 05/01/08 at 11:21 PM ET
Yeah Gabe it could, kinda like “Q” thinking “Lose 3 or 4” could actually stop “Tre Kronner”
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/01/08 at 11:22 PM ET
Oh, good for the Dive. Bless their hard-working little hearts. 8-2.
