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.

How many ineffective PP for the Stars now this series?
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 05/14/08 at 07:23 PM ET
positional play for Ozzie…
...and the Olczyk begins riding Oz’s jock…
Posted by Osrt on 05/14/08 at 07:24 PM ET
I guess the cliche’d first ten minutes just turned into the first twelve.
Lidstrom in the box. Not good.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 05/14/08 at 07:25 PM ET
Nick in the box. #%^$@$%
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/14/08 at 07:25 PM ET
Yeah, I saw interference too, ref-- only it was a green sweater…
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/14/08 at 07:25 PM ET
I must be hallucenating but I could have swore I saw Nick in the Sin bin

Z is a frigging wizard
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/14/08 at 07:27 PM ET
May have saved a goal...they’re playing for their lives!
Z is challenging Oz for the Conn Smythe
Posted by Osrt on 05/14/08 at 07:28 PM ET
If selke voting was still underway it would be unanimous for zetterberg.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 05/14/08 at 07:28 PM ET
Way to kill a penalty there, Z. Take the puck and make 80% of their skaters chase you.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/14/08 at 07:28 PM ET
Ok boys, Ozzie has kept the team in the game—how bout we score one or two to share the love
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/14/08 at 07:29 PM ET
Second line has to be a lot fracking sharper.
Posted by Ryan from Toronto on 05/14/08 at 07:29 PM ET
boy the refs are gonna give dallas every chance possible to get a win tonight
Yah, I noticed that too.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/14/08 at 07:30 PM ET
This is muckety-muck crap. What clutching and grabbing?
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/14/08 at 07:31 PM ET
What the F.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/14/08 at 07:32 PM ET
Interesting. Dallas seems to be playing Angelic hockey. Wow
Posted by Osrt on 05/14/08 at 07:32 PM ET
“OK Stars, this is your last freebie.”
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/14/08 at 07:32 PM ET
One of the commentators just called Z, Dats, Homer, Nick, and Raffi The Fab Five...now I want to punch a nun.
WHY must these commentators be such fairies?!?
Detroit #25, two minutes, Having a 3-0 Series Lead.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/14/08 at 07:32 PM ET
I’m just glad is playing such a disciplined, clean, skill game tonight. It would be a shame if they had to, like, try to kill a penalty or something.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/14/08 at 07:33 PM ET
WTF!!! Again to the freaking penalty box!
boy the refs are gonna give dallas every chance possible to get a win tonight
DJ may get the award for Understatement of the night!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/14/08 at 07:33 PM ET
Well at least the officials know their whistles work. Where was that holding the stick last game!
Posted by Dave on 05/14/08 at 07:33 PM ET
Forgot the “Bubba Sr.” in there… Buckets comes up big.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/14/08 at 07:33 PM ET
it’s ok, some even-up bs penalties will be called against the Stars…

Posted by Osrt on 05/14/08 at 07:34 PM ET
Have we got any more information on the tests that were run on Franzen?
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/14/08 at 07:35 PM ET
At what point does desperation turn into despair?
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 05/14/08 at 07:36 PM ET
woo hoo internet back up!
The next time someone says that Osgood didn’t really play spactacular i’m gonna point to this period.
Posted by wingsfanindenver on 05/14/08 at 07:36 PM ET
Hey Hagman, indecisive much?
There’s another way to kill a penalty-- stand there and watch their pinched-in point man stickhandle badly in the same spot for twenty seconds.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/14/08 at 07:36 PM ET
Datsyuk, Samuelsson, and McCarty? wtf is going on?
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/14/08 at 07:36 PM ET
Raffi’s gonna give me a heart attack…
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 05/14/08 at 07:36 PM ET
Hank—Selke play again denying the far side of the cage
No shots on the Stars PP
So we know DET can play defense
How bout some goal scoring skills
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/14/08 at 07:36 PM ET
“Holding the stick”...isn’t that what Pronger is doing right about now?
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/14/08 at 07:37 PM ET
Is Ozzie breaking a sweat? I think I just saw a sweat bead.
Posted by Osrt on 05/14/08 at 07:37 PM ET
Ok, Wings gotta get some offense going. Enough with the PK.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/14/08 at 07:38 PM ET
Datsyuk, Samuelsson, and McCarty? wtf is going on?
That’s what I was noticing earlier. Is that just middle of change stuff?

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
