Update 1836: This one hurts. Franzen, concussion like symptoms, out for tonite.
Starting the Live Blog a little early tonite. Apparently, the Hasek Club Car is filling up and you know those idiots need something to do. I’ll be here for the start of the game. Commence your conversations. Juveniliciousness is the only mandate.
Oh, and all those lower bowl seats the Delicate Genius was talking about? The empty ones he noticed after Kronwall’s hit? Here they are, thanks to Dave Guralnick of the Detroit News.
Gaping holes Mitch. Gaping.

Despite Refs’ Best Effort, Wings Remain In Lead. Thanks Gary.
(I’ll leave the eleventh word up to you.)

Maybe it’s me… or the new anti-depression drugs I’m taking… but I agree that, even though the Wings are getting a lot of penalties, they are controlling the game.

Mule head hurts Helm scores Ott Sucks Screw Turkey links
It’s not haiku, but you get the idea, Rumbear…

Ten word snyopsis eh?
Mule out. DAL top line dead. Ozy strong. Circus magic.

Hoorah… martini’s
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 05/10/08 at 07:55 PM ET
Very close game so far… Dallas is committed to the chip and chase, but the Wings are doing a good job keeping them outside. The absence of the Mule is being picked up well by the rest of the team.

Hits
DET 30
DAL 17
Faceoffs, DET 30 something, DAL 9
Next goal may very well determine who wins this game

Martini is an adult beverage? Someone should have told my parents.
I guess that explains one thing or another.

Only 12 shots on goal for the Stars. If the Wings can stay out of the penalty box [heh] they can hopefully lock the Stars down in the 3rd.
Posted by Dave on 05/10/08 at 07:57 PM ET
Marty’s gonna blow it this period. The ghost of Joe Louis haunts him.
Posted by PDXWing on 05/10/08 at 08:00 PM ET
I want to see a softy for us, as a prelude to a Turckey melt (down) in Game 3…
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/10/08 at 08:01 PM ET
The squirrels in Turco’s head are running!
Posted by Rumbear from Top O da Hasek, sippin rum & catchin some rays on 05/10/08 at 08:02 PM ET
Lord Helmet working on that predicted hat trick.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/10/08 at 08:03 PM ET
Dave—the shot and hit differential is huge right now.
we are all they can handle, I would just like to see another goal for comfort.
namu myoho renge kyo
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 05/10/08 at 08:03 PM ET
Nice odd man break for the Wings there!!
DAL sure hasn’t started the 3rd with the energy they had in the 2nd
Hopefully they used up all their go power
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/10/08 at 08:04 PM ET
Ribero breaks in and shoots it square into Ozzies logo—brilliant
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/10/08 at 08:06 PM ET
Ozzie standing tall again. Giving us a chance to take the wind out of their sails.
Now let’s capitalize on those chances.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/10/08 at 08:06 PM ET
Dallas is just KILLING us when it comes to checking the boards tonite…

Yeah, and Wings are countering by going very short shifts right now. Expect the fatigue to factor in at about 12:00.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/10/08 at 08:07 PM ET
This dump and no chase crap is not gonna fly, guys… Ozzie saves our bacon yet again.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 08:07 PM ET
Nate, I think fatigue is already here…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 08:09 PM ET
oh fatigue is definitely here, but with rested wings, it should be even more pronounced.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/10/08 at 08:10 PM ET
Ribeiro looks like Wolf Man….pretty creepy fella.
Posted by yreland from Van Dieman's Land on 05/10/08 at 08:11 PM ET
That call better be against Bubba…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 08:12 PM ET
4th line draws the penalty. Top line is rested. The stage is set.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/10/08 at 08:12 PM ET

I thought you meant the other way. We look like we’re skating in sand most of this period and the last…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 08:12 PM ET
Fourth line drew that penalty nicely.
Now let’s get the insurance goal, PLEASE?
PP’s been working so well, that’s not too much to ask, right?
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/10/08 at 08:13 PM ET
Wings to the PP
For the love of octupus, and to save my cats skin,
CAN WE PLEASE SCORE
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/10/08 at 08:13 PM ET
Hopefully the PP gets some good looks…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 08:13 PM ET
Great work from Mac and Helm. I think they may have played two minutes, max, in the second. Looks like Uncle Mike’s gonna use them a bit more here, especially with Bubba’s tired D.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/10/08 at 08:13 PM ET
Turdco looking a little rattled
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/10/08 at 08:14 PM ET
Turkey is such a beeyotch. I’m ashamed to be from the same state as him…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 08:15 PM ET
Wow, what a diver. 4.0 from the Russian judge.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/10/08 at 08:15 PM ET
Olcyk can bite my hairy sac…always crying about every little thing about the Wings. Shut up Edso (douche)
Posted by yreland from Van Dieman's Land on 05/10/08 at 08:15 PM ET
and Turco ‘accidentally’ knocks his net off the pegs
Posted by wingsfanindenver on 05/10/08 at 08:15 PM ET
Call him Captain Hook… Thanks, Gary. Ass.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 08:16 PM ET
Ohhhhh… I get it. It’s okay for Turdco to pop anyone when he feels like it… what would happen if Homer did the EXACT same thing to him… Hmmmm
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 05/10/08 at 08:16 PM ET
The Mule’s absence is felt pretty strongly, especially on our 2nd power play unit.
Posted by PDXWing on 05/10/08 at 08:17 PM ET
BTW, Howie Long wants you to buy him some lunch.
I’d like somebody to buy Turkey Legs some lunch.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 08:17 PM ET
UGHHH—I think I’ll head back to the club car for the duration of this game
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/10/08 at 08:18 PM ET
@ PDXWing
I thought the same thing. That unit just ain’t anywhere near as dangerous w/o the Mule.
Posted by Dave on 05/10/08 at 08:20 PM ET
Plan on starting the one goal pace at the five minute mark.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/10/08 at 08:20 PM ET
Great. Icing is always nice, especially with eight left and a one-goal lead.
At least the Circus is out there.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 08:20 PM ET
Wings do look to have more energy in this period
