Hey TD, that’s good work. 

You should post that over on LGW photoshop forum.  The submissions on there kinda suck so far (even mine).  You’d be hailed as conquering hero.

Makes me thirsty just looking at it…

And, speaking of “ownage,” are the Pens planning to ever lose a game???

At the risk of putting the cart waaaayyy out in front of the horse, I hope somebody in the East knocks them out before the finals…

If you think the Stress Train fills up given the likes of Sakic, Smyth, Floppa, etc., what effect do you think Crosby, Malkin, Hossa, Sykora, Roberts, Gonchar, etc., will have on the level of spleen-venting and liver abuse ‘round these parts, should the Wings be fortunate enough to make it out of the West?!?

Boggles the mind.  Can’t hardly wait.

Detroit would be destined to win that series, although it would take seven games.

Iwo has already foreseen it - just a year off, perhaps.  smile

I can’t believe anybody remembered that Baroque.  I was saving it for a later date.

The Wings would slap the Penguins around.  It’d be pretty fun to watch.  The Wings are the best faceoff team by a country mile, and the Penguins are the worst by even more than that.  They’re also tied for dead last (with Minnesota) among playoff teams in shot differential.  They’re tied with Ottawa for second worst penalty kill among playoff teams (Boston was last).

Chief, those of us who would have loved to have seen that match-up last year remember your prediction pretty well.  In fact I was thinking about it after the Ducks were eliminated that the only other team that still concerns me is the Pens. Nobody else in the West or East...and it would make for a fast, terrifying series.  Personally, I’m hoping for a Wings/Rangers or Wings/Habs SCF.

But...we’re still 6 wins away from that. I don’t want to get ahead of myself.

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:

A2Y Stuff

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 realize it’s the slow summer season, but can this guy tone down the tough-guy histrionics? His posts are fatiguing on an otherwise excellent site."
--A2Y Fan, Eternal_Fields

"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

"Have you ever *read* A2Y? Its the most opinionated, juvenile stuff i've read."
--Paul Nicholson

"I actually like the Detroit team and have a sh&% load of respect for them, but their fans are the biggest douches next to Canadians."
--KStewy, PensBlog Commenter

"Just when it looks like we have bottomed out, the 19 hit a new low."
-A2Y legend, Hockeytown Todd

"And for the record, I don't hate the Red Wings, I hate their fans."
--Douche Bag at Puck Daddy who isn't Wyshynski

"You’re nothing but a douchebag ****, c3po. Go f**k yourself, and learn something about hockey in the process. Nothing ruins my day more than seeing your byline on the kk page."
--Hector, A2Y fan, statesman, Pittsburgh Chapter of Jonas Brothers Fan Club President

"I can just imagine the kindergarten teacher’s reaction when the tyke blurts out 'Mommy says Gary Bettman is a f*cking f*ckface! He wants to give ‘Rosby the bad touch.' ”
--Bella, of the 19
