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.

Fil is centering the #2 line with Cleary and Sammy

Has the NHL given into that retarded rule yet or was Al just being cheeky? He was standing as close as possible to the ice without being on it.
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 05/10/08 at 06:11 PM ET
Good sign. Sammy puts one on net. Strike up the band bitches.

That turnover never woulda happened if Franzen had been in…

Love the Drake.

Boom Drake!
Damn Euro softies…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 06:13 PM ET
Drake isn’t happy about having to share his name with these yahoos. Mule being out has made him angrier.
Somebody in a white jersey is gonna get hurt tonight.

Jeff, I didnt see the first game, but tonite, Dal is being very aggressive on the forecheck. Right now it’s workin, wings passes aren’t connecting.
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 05/10/08 at 06:18 PM ET
Neither of those Windows Media player links I posted at 7:07 are working right now…

Posted by Steve from New Jersey on 05/10/08 at 06:24 PM ET
Hell, just ask Medicine Hat if he’s a clutch performer…
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/10/08 at 06:25 PM ET
Wow, that hit on Mac didn’t look good.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 06:25 PM ET
Its funny listening to the CBC announcer pronounce Filppula. Its like he’s trying to say it in french or something.
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 05/10/08 at 06:26 PM ET
Okay, ten minutes in --
Stars have 1 shot
They do appear to have more intesity in the DET zone.
They STILL APPEAR SLOW
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/10/08 at 06:26 PM ET
Definitely letting them play tonight.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 06:27 PM ET

Not good. Wishing I had a cat at this point…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/10/08 at 06:28 PM ET
Damn, Nick’s getting to be a real penalty machine. Look out Sasquatch.
Stupid delay of game rule. Makes no sense at all.

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
"A2Y is what other blog sites aspire to be when they fail to grow up: intelligent immaturity for the juvenile genius set”
--Captain Dennis Polonich, of the 19
