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.

the avs aren’t going to be able to roll four lines if they want a chance to win this…its nice to see our third and fourth lines getting lots of ice time.

Holmstrom went down again, you sure you don’t want to call him for tripping?

they are having trouble on the checking line keeping up with us.  despite the make-up goal, we are dominating play right now.  nice chances, passes, and ice washes for the goalies thrown in for good measure.

Tripping? I’d say he was checking the ice from behind. 5m major.

Q did a pre-game interview on TSN, they asked his strategy… keep it simple.  that generally doesn’t work against our Wings, and it is showing.  Sakic best player on the Dive right now, still love the guy

If the Wings keep the pressure on for a full 60, I don’t think there’s any way the Avs can keep up. We can roll more players. Simple.

I like Billy Jaffe, I can’t help it.  Despite being a Devil fan, the man is just too positive and up front to be an NHL analyst.
