And Later That Night When The Ship’s Bell Rang?  That Was A Game 3 Live Blog, Brother

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

Two player thoughts:

Cheli playing a strong game tonight.  Even that second goal when he was on the ice, he looked strong.  He’s been roughing bitches up all night out there like a Baltimore collection agency.

Homer…god bless him, but he looks like shit skating out there.  Can we just have Z tow him in out in front of the net and leave him?

Disch, Cheli deserves third star tonite.  Zetterberg, Datsyuk, Chelios.

Anybody else seem to think that Sammy passes shen he should shoot

and shoot when he should pass

Jeff, I’ve been thinking that all season. Especially true manning the point on the power play. So many shots into the shins of the opponent.

Shots on goal this period
DET 6
DAL 3

and DAL is the team that needs to score twice, and oh yeah

they had 4 mins of PP time this period

I dunno, Chief—Game 4 didn’t have this edge, nor did it look this good with only a little over five to go.

At this point in Game 4 against little Bubba, Andrew? I was about to type, “this looks a lot like ‘98.”

I had to go back and find that in the thread.  I’ve seen children born, ships sail, wars won and victory parades. Rarely have I been as proud as I am right now.

Damn, Chief.  You’re makin’ me tear up too.  A regular Patton.  Crap, shouldn’t say that to a Navy man, should I? oops.

Wings are playing a supreme game of keepaway.  Dallas must be frustrated as hell right now…and tired.

Cheli deserves 3rd star, but as things stand now, betcha Hudler gets it for the current winner.

Damn, Z’s goal reminds me of Mac’s game 4 goal in the ‘97 finals.

Chief—That’s not the first time I’ve been compared to the child berthing process.  I’ve got an employer and a few ex girlfriends who might back you up on that.  Just know, you’re in good company.

Fiancee goes to bed early and its time for total Wings geek-out with A2Y.  with players like Datsyuk and Zetterberg, this isn’t even fair.  And neither of them a first rounder.  And the oompa loompa scores the go ahead.  Amazing.  Steve Ott is classless.

Remember when Melrose said the Stars did so well in getting Richards at the deadline?  And the Wings had a dissappointing day?  Who would you take now, Stuart or Richards?

DATSYUK!  ZETTERBERG!  DATSYUK HAT TRICK!  THE CIRCUS!!!!!

Game. Set. Series. Score first Wednesday.  Score again.  Stay healthy. Coast on in.  Most impressive shutdown performance from a Wing team in ten years.

All hail Uncle Mike.
