two goals up, less than a period and a half.  Wings need to shut this thing down.

Parity Nate, parity.

they can’t stop him fairly so they get a little leeway on the “rules” in order to give the game a little parity.

there have been a few missed calls in the last 5 of the 2nd.

Alright. Been drinking and have something unpopular to say. Little Gary…ass? I just can’t get behind it anymore. Since he’s taken charge (92? 93?), the Wings haven’t missed the playoffs, have picked up three Cups, 6 president trophies, have dominated the whole league…

Gary’s an idiot…an ineffective leader, a poor choice when it comes to handing over the keys to the NHL…he’s dilluted the talent of teams, he’s expanded into the wrong markets, made sure you can’t find hockey on TV, partnered with companies that make a joke of this league…

but…

None of that has been bad for the Wings. In fact it’s been good for them. Even putting the team in the West and making sure they have one of the most grueling travel schedules in the league hasn’t shown that it hurts them. His attempts to create parity have only highlighted the genius that is Ken Holland.

So I just wanted to say thanks Gary. Yes, you’re an ass, but you’re okay. Feel free to screw this league over for years to come if it means I get to keep watching the Wings spank the Avs in the playoffs.

The Wing’s PP is about where it was at in the regular season - 20.20%.  It’s at 19.04% after those two PP goals tonight.

You know, what I like best about this board is that when someone has a legitimate question one of the regulars takes the time to explain and educate the person. Kudos to all of you on a job well done… Now, back to the snide comments..

Didn’t the DC pick the Snorks to come out of the West?

I know he picked the Rangers in the East and Sidney and friends are going through NY like Oprah through a ham.

Around 8 minutes of power play time in that period, but only 9 shots?

Well WingsinDenver, the DC is a hockey genius, that’s why no GM will offer him a position in the game.

thanks for the link, IWO.  Datsyuk looks unbelievable.  every time he’s on the ice, the Wings have a scoring chance.  almost got the hat trick on the breakaway.  i’m calling a Datsyuk hat trick tonight!

As much as I hate to say it, I think the Wings are really going to play tight defensively in the third.

Alright. Been drinking and have something unpopular to say.

Gabriel, definitely not the way to start a sentence.  In AA they teach you that it is “not all about you.”  So find a friend and stop drinking alone.  At least that’s how I took their advice. 

Me? I’m on the roof of the Hasek between periods hitting golf balls.  Chief said we need to get out more on the other thread.  C’mon up…. buck a ball…unless “Lucky” the three legged dog brings them back, then it’s free.

Well kids, it’s been fun, but between the pain and Vicodin, I’m toast. Here’s hoping things don’t go south after I go nighty-night. Have fun watching the rest of the game. See you all for game 4!

He’s zen now because he just became a father. He brought new life into this world, so a petty thing like a hockey game can’t penetrate his own little world right now.

I however, amd not a Dad that I know of, so I’d like to say, “Be a LITTLE more careful please. This is the freaking PLAYOFFS!”

That’s all.
