As usual, I’ll be aboard for the drop of the puck. It’s essential that you leave all adult pretense behind. There is no room, and I’m serious, for mature thought.
It’s a Game 4 Live Blog. Finish it.

Since WHEN is Versus ‘good TV?’
When they play fishing shows. They’re good for insomnia.

DAL gets their first lead—in the last minute of the 2nd
FRACK

So WHY wasn’t that waved off? Eriksson was in the crease…
Should be a tie game, zebras.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/14/08 at 08:36 PM ET
Ah, goal in the last minute. Let Robidas walk in and the rebound gets buried.
Posted by Dave on 05/14/08 at 08:36 PM ET
This freaking sucks that it’s so late in the period. Because there’s no real time for the Wings to pot an even up goal.

‘WORD’
Damn. Now watch the VS guys wank all over Dallas.
Posted by PB on 05/14/08 at 08:36 PM ET
the fans at Andrew’s Dallas Stars blog are creaming all over themselves at having a lead.
LOL

OK...if the Dats goal was waved off for interference, how can that goal POSSIBLY NOT be interference? Was he not in the paint?
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/14/08 at 08:37 PM ET
Up 3-0. One good period away from the finals. And I still, and I really can’t put this strongly enough, hate the playoffs.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 05/14/08 at 08:38 PM ET
Unfrigginbelievable. And not in a good way.

I want Congressional hearings on Lil’ Gary’s ability to head a hockey league!
Posted by jrl123 on 05/14/08 at 08:38 PM ET
he was in the crease, and whacked Osgood in the leg with his stick before the puck was even there. but hey, the refs know better right?
sheesh.

being in the paint is not what determines interference. you can be in the crease as long as you don’t interfere with the goalie’s ability to defend the net.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/14/08 at 08:39 PM ET
Watch these guys get picked to referee the SCF…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/14/08 at 08:39 PM ET
Of course he was, but he doesn’t have Homer written on his back so its okay according to joke that are the refs.
Posted by PB on 05/14/08 at 08:39 PM ET
Get this:
SHOTS ON GOAL
1st 2nd T
Detroit 5 14 19
Dallas 9 6 15
DET 14 shots in the 2nd to DAL 6
Wonder what DET does now??
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/14/08 at 08:39 PM ET
I know Samuelsson brings other qualities to the game with his defense and forecheck. But my god he’s pathetic in so many other areas.
I’ve heard “Samuelsson shoots ... and hits the glass” so many times. It’s almost automatic in my head now.
Sammy Glass.

Now watch the VS guys wank all over Dallas.
On TSN, the plan is to wonder why the Wings’ PP goal wasn’t allowed.
We need to come out FLYING in the third.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/14/08 at 08:41 PM ET
No changes for Uncle Mike, keep the foot on the gas and that score will take care of itself.
Posted by J.J. from kansas on 05/14/08 at 08:41 PM ET
I think Gary, Ass. wants his saturday NBC game.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/14/08 at 08:42 PM ET
Jeff - The skate is on the throat, the officials and Lil’ Gary are taking it off for the meantime.
I’m sure they’ll be watering the rink down instead of putting the zamboni out there to make sure things stay this even.
Posted by HockeyJoe from NY on 05/14/08 at 08:42 PM ET
I swore to myself I’d be satisfied with a split in Dallas. This, however, it starting to piss me off.

All I can say is I would have liked to see Datsyuk’s goal reviewed.
Posted by Dave on 05/14/08 at 08:43 PM ET
Detroit does what they’ve been doing. Forget the nonsense calls, shoot, score.
Posted by jrl123 on 05/14/08 at 08:43 PM ET
well it should be 1-1 but oh well...we are going to score a quick one in the third and then it will go to ot and we will score one early in the first ot!
Posted by yzer19man from chicago on 05/14/08 at 08:44 PM ET
the video review judge is supposed to review EVERY goal, and can call down if the call is wrong. the ref can request a review on ANY goal. they both blew it. big time.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/14/08 at 08:44 PM ET
McKenzie: “I wonder if sensitivity to Holmstrom being in Turco’s face was heightened about thirty or forty seconds before the goal...”
I got news for you, cha-cha: it wasn’t forty seconds before, it was TEN YEARS before. They see #96 anywhere below the hash marks, it’s goalie interference.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/14/08 at 08:45 PM ET
wingsfan in denver.
I’m feelin’ the same way…
Posted by Gapik from DC on 05/14/08 at 08:46 PM ET
Wings looked better in the second. Keep the pressure on Dallas and good thing should happen.
Posted by Dave on 05/14/08 at 08:48 PM ET
I make no apologies for saying I’d let that edge girl in my nostril.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 05/14/08 at 08:49 PM ET
Let’s keep this thing positive.
I’m calling #51 for next goal.
Posted by lilja4ever on 05/14/08 at 08:49 PM ET
the ice is only going to get worse in the third and if it goes to ot, its going to be sloppy
Posted by yzer19man from chicago on 05/14/08 at 08:50 PM ET

I hear ya Joe - - unfortunately I do hear you.

this league has now officially lost credibility with me...can you say S-E-T-U-P?

kinky...Navy training I assume
Posted by Osrt on 05/14/08 at 08:51 PM ET
I’m still pissed about that goaltender interference. I want the Wings to win this one so bad right now. I want Homer to score the game-winning Eff You goal. Eff You Dallas. Eff You refs. Eff You Gary. Ass.
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/14/08 at 08:53 PM ET
alright bitches, the dogs of war have been called out and it seems a few of them are wearing stripes.
the battle is not over, and I hate seeing us lose even if I have a stake in Game 5, so let the beast be unleashed. our grind lines have seen a lot of I/T so time for our scorers to make Dallas’ legs seem heavy.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 05/14/08 at 08:54 PM ET
Game On!! Lidstrom carries the mail this period, he’s pissed b/c he is a -1

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”
