A muddy track deepinthehearta. Sloggy and slushy. Haze frigging gray and underway. As it should be.
Wings win tonite? Game, set, series. Wings lose? Start shoveling coal because we’ve got ourselves a Stress Train Special.
It’s a Game 3 Live Blog. Commence your conversations. The only mandate is juvenilicity. I’ll join you when they drop the puck.
Updated 1940 EST: Wanna guess who said this?
“We don’t think much of them on a personal, character level. We think that’s to our advantage.”
Yep. Turco.

Homer’s still inside Turkey’s head. Scrambling his brains.

Turco never struck me as an immensely stupid person. But talk like that is just crack-laden babble. Wings win tonite and you’ll be seeing that quote again. It will become an A2Y hallmark.

Lehtinen a no-show for the pre-game skate.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/12/08 at 06:56 PM ET
Ronnie Wilson fired. Guess he’ll be taking those morale-building trips up to the mountains by himself.

I see Dub over there; I was trying to post but it wouldn’t let me. They must have Wing fan detectors on or something. Bitches…

You can also pull in the VS feed by opening the following URL in Media Player; it’s the best streaming quality that I’ve found.

Hola WingNuts!
No Lehtinen—darn
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/12/08 at 07:01 PM ET
Yeah. What a shame Okie. Tornado-like weather in DC today. I hid under my desk all afternoon.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/12/08 at 07:02 PM ET
Damn…I have to watch VS tonight. CBC isn’t carrying it…grrr..
“why didn’t the stars win last game?”
—> because the wings shut them down you tool..
Posted by Osrt on 05/12/08 at 07:03 PM ET
Did ya know DAL is 2 - 4 at home, and have lost 4 of the last 5?
Just saying
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/12/08 at 07:03 PM ET
Yeah, Osrt. But listen to the VS tools, and Melrose a few minutes before on ESPN News. “The Stars played much better.” Really, other than the obvious? Prove it. They got out hit by a wider margin. Lost more faceoffs. The shot differential was greater.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/12/08 at 07:04 PM ET
Quit bitching OSRT—I’m always stuck with the VS. At least Emerick is tolerable, and Jones is okay—but thats it
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/12/08 at 07:04 PM ET
Hey, good advice from the Vs. commentators! “It doesn’t matter what they do, it only matters what we do? Then stop trying to play like the Detroit Red Wings!”
And proceed to get hopelessly outclassed.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/12/08 at 07:04 PM ET
“why didn’t the stars win last game?”
I heard that Osrt…the stars played a “terrific game” why did’nt they win??....jeez the love fest begins early!

thanks for the links guys…good work!
Posted by yzer19man from Chicago on 05/12/08 at 07:05 PM ET
Really Okie? Melrose said they’ve played “very well at home.” He must have access to super-secret Thhhhom-like stats that you and I aren’t privy too. You’re damn right I said privy. I’ll say it again…privy. I have no problem saying privy, because that’s how I roll motherfuckers.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/12/08 at 07:05 PM ET
“why didn’t the stars win last game?”
Because the Star scored once, and the Wings scored twice.
Posted by jrl123 on 05/12/08 at 07:06 PM ET
OSRT—thanks for the Post at the Forum, I notice lots of hits there, but nobody usually leaves any comments, I appreciate it—really.
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/12/08 at 07:07 PM ET
I think Pavs is due to crawl back inside Marty’s head. Datsyukian dekes are in order tonight.
Posted by Dave on 05/12/08 at 07:07 PM ET
Tornado—must be a good omen for the Wings—a howling wind sweeping into town!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/12/08 at 07:08 PM ET
Yes, Stars fans…your team’s name is the ‘Stars.’ Glad you know the national anthem.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/12/08 at 07:09 PM ET
Right on Jeff! I’m sure I’m just voicing a lot of people’s appreciation. 
Posted by Osrt on 05/12/08 at 07:09 PM ET
I’m out of the box Osrt. Plus the censors missed it.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/12/08 at 07:09 PM ET

Indeed. didn’t he make that move in their arena?? ok.. talk to you guys in a bit
Posted by Osrt on 05/12/08 at 07:11 PM ET
let’s get an early jump before the ice turns to slush. thank goodness I am spared the Versus treatment as I am watching TSN right now.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 05/12/08 at 07:11 PM ET
WOW OZZIE—feeling the early heat and standing freaking tall!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/12/08 at 07:12 PM ET

Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/12/08 at 07:12 PM ET

Just waiting on some direction Okie. See above.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/12/08 at 07:14 PM ET
Gads, I forget how fast Cleary is until he does stuff like that. Getting in Turckey’s face early.
Big PK there.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/12/08 at 07:15 PM ET
Survived the 1st good opportunity for DAL to gather some momentum
GOOD freaking Kill!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/12/08 at 07:15 PM ET
Not real fond of the playoffs right about now.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/12/08 at 07:16 PM ET
Yeah, I am LOVIN’ Ozzie right now! Is it me or do the Starz seem a little testier tonight? Think its home ice or the Robiero/Osgood thing?
Posted by WingBitch on 05/12/08 at 07:16 PM ET
I wish Doc would Shut Up and call the game.
Posted by Bhernard Bhudzhev from Traverse City Mi on 05/12/08 at 07:17 PM ET
Good on ya Chief!!!
Perhaps the Hockey Gods took note, as we survived the DAL PP ringing one of the crossbar
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/12/08 at 07:17 PM ET
everything’s fine… fine…
namu myoho renge kyo
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 05/12/08 at 07:19 PM ET
Nor I, Chief, but I think it may be a case of weather the early storm and then open up on them…
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/12/08 at 07:19 PM ET
Ok. I’m calling it. I’ll sacrifice one pet for the first goal.

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.

I noted on the KK Hockey page that Turco seems intent on providing the Wings some bulletin board material, and it’s hard to say whether or not he’s looking to get his bell rung, or embarassed by an offensive display.
It’s sad, really. I never used to have negative feelings towards Turco and the Stars in general, but my how things change…
