About Abel to Yzerman
Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that. Your suggestions and critiques are welcome:

Wanna Feel Smart?
Does confusion make you sad? When you read words like “enigma” and phrases like “Thanks Gary. Ass”, do you wonder why mean people speak in languages you don’t understand? Fret no longer friend! The A2Y Glossary will bring you great joy and enlightenment.

How Others View The A2Y 19
“Hell, I guarantee the content co-opters at Abel to Yzerman were about to link this article under the heading “Bitter Blues Fans” again right up until they just read that last half-sentance. Thanks but no thanks, you Kukla hangers-on.”
--St. Louis Game Time
“I constantly marvel at how Bill (IwoCPO) and his disciples at Abel To Yzerman can be so pompous and full of themselves throughout every regular season, but come playoff time they collapse into wavering puddles of stress and nervousness as they anxiously await the impending and unavoidable collapse of the Red Wings in the post-season.”
--Mile High Hockey
“I hate them because they are better than us. Of all the frigging teams…”
--In The Cheap Seats
“It’s just a shame that the most classless, uneducated, lowbrow fanbase in the league gets this sweep. Red Wing fans don’t deserve their team.”
--Thhom
“I really don’t care what fans or bloggers think.”
--Drew Sharp
“Why is it you Detroit fans are still so classless when you have such a classy hockey team, with such a professional GM and gentlemen players? I understand that the author of this blog is a manner-less cad, but the rest of you should be better.”
--A2Y Fan, Jeff Beaumont

Eur An Idiot Too

The Attendance Dilemma even has the reputable mainstreamers sniffing glue. Bob Duff, who typically keeps a level head for the Windsor Star, has bought into the Euro-conspiracy.
Study the history of this so-called Hockeytown and one thing you’ll learn is this: They don’t take a hankering to foreigners.
When things went wrong for the Wings in the 1990s, it was always Sergei Fedorov’s fault. Hasek and Datsyuk took much of the heat for last season’s playoff departure.
And…
Whether they come on four wheels or two blades, the Motor City won’t pay for imports.
While We’re At It…You’re An Idiot Too

So nice to see you. Just when we thought USA Today had come to their senses, here you are again to enlighten us with your glow of genius.
The Central Division looks interesting.
I think that may be the first time in four years anyone’s been stupid enough to actually put that thought in print. But Ted Montgomery doesn’t stop there.

I told you I wasn’t going to talk about attendance anymore, so I will today. But only because my hand has been forced...again. Apparently, there’s a guy in Grand Rapids who hosts some show on some radio station that some people probably listen to.
I don’t know if Bill Simonson is genetically an idiot, or if today was the exception. I don’t know because I’ve never heard of him before.
