I really like the confidence of the Wings at this point. The Dive ran them to begin the game and scored an early goal but the Wings played their game. They look very steady, and dare I say it, ‘championistic’ in their determination.

What HAT did Franzen wear during that interview between periods on FSN? I love it!!!

Octopi on Avs ice?
Posted by red from SE Michigan on 04/29/08 at 09:54 PM ET
Helluva period. Even when the Avs took the lead the Wings were playing better and making more chances.
Avs lucky it’s not 4-1 by now.

Versus stats show faceoffs 14-6 Avs. that can’t be right. anybody paying enough attention to know if that’s accurate?

“In terms of” dim-witted play-by-play men, how many times did this guy re-use “in terms of ” in the first period. “____ leads his team in terms of ____” “The _____ lead the NHL in terms of _______”
Still he’s better than Milbury, in terms of being a douche bag.

The NHL.com scoresheet agrees with VS.

Let’s hope we can send Floppa back to the dressing room.

Dub, that makes my heart happy.
Thank you sir.

Face offs 14-6 Avs as shown at the NHL.com game summary also.

Stasny’s done for the night, per the Late Night Sneaky Uncle…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 04/29/08 at 10:04 PM ET
did you guys see the guy with the Kocur jersey, right where Kronner made the huge hit
Posted by Osrt on 04/29/08 at 10:04 PM ET
did he just say that was kronner’s first good hit of the playoffs? is this the first game he’s seen?
Posted by scheisskopf on 04/29/08 at 10:05 PM ET
and no hooking call on the Avs against Datsyuk. pathetic.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 04/29/08 at 10:06 PM ET
Eh, especially the end of the season, Paul. I’m thinking we’re seeing his last games.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 04/29/08 at 10:06 PM ET
Maybe it’s the Vicodin… but i missed the Stastny thing. What happened?
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 04/29/08 at 10:06 PM ET
How was that not a hook on Datsyuk?
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 04/29/08 at 10:06 PM ET
That’s gotta be a freaking hooking when Datsyuk was going to the net. WTF?
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 04/29/08 at 10:06 PM ET
Nevermind…they just replayed it.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 04/29/08 at 10:06 PM ET
Hi Guys, sorry I’m late. Mule might need an upgrade to thoroughbred!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 04/29/08 at 10:06 PM ET
Jesus. Nobody shake Forsberg’s hand, yeah?
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 04/29/08 at 10:07 PM ET
Nice 1st period commentary folks, I’m all caught up now.
Looks like Draper took out Petey with an ankle check…hee hee.
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 04/29/08 at 10:08 PM ET
When McLeod got called for high sticking in the first, I asked my family, what was that a penalty for? And my brother quickly responds, “Just being an Avalanche player.” I was so proud of that comment.

Naw, that’s “old time hockey,” Colorado-style.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 04/29/08 at 10:09 PM ET
BEAUTY!!!
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 04/29/08 at 10:11 PM ET
good job Foote. way to try to be a pussy and cover the puck up for a faceoff.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 04/29/08 at 10:11 PM ET
WHOOO HOOO Dats!!!
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 04/29/08 at 10:11 PM ET
amazing pass to the point by Datsyuk, and he gets it back. beautiful!
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 04/29/08 at 10:11 PM ET
Osgood makes a couple brilliant saves, the puck goes the other way…and into the Avs net.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 04/29/08 at 10:11 PM ET
So there’s the 3… where’s the 4?
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 04/29/08 at 10:11 PM ET
and there’s datsyuk, the so-called “playoff choke artist”
Posted by scheisskopf on 04/29/08 at 10:12 PM ET
Dumb F—kers everybody going to the boards to deliver a hit and leave the goalie hung out to dry. Avs .... such a mindless play.
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 04/29/08 at 10:12 PM ET
Man, it sucks that we’ve got a perennial playoff choker like Datsyuk on our team.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 04/29/08 at 10:12 PM ET
Av’ guy left the point to go hit a Wing on the Wall, and Pav’s buries the puck— SWEET
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 04/29/08 at 10:12 PM ET
Well, there’s three, give us four.
Thanks Jose.
Posted by BuzzFledderjohn on 04/29/08 at 10:12 PM ET
And there’s the even-up call. Good on ya, Gary. Ass.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 04/29/08 at 10:13 PM ET
Agreed Nate. And that we don’t have the grit to handle the playoff grind.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 04/29/08 at 10:13 PM ET
So there’s the 3… where’s the 4?
Gee Jen, wait til at least the 10:00 minute mark, LOL
