Saw this yesterday and decided to save it for tonite’s extravaganza from the Ass Can. Adrian Dater, after several paragraphs devoted to the Dive’s number one center—-Tyler Arnason—-has this recommendation for the 14 die hard Denver fans left in his dear city.
...if I’m a fan of the Avs, I’m taking a good, stiff drink before tomorrow’s game.
All the spritzers you can sip, Dive fans. Send the bill to Adrian.
It’s a Live Blog bitches. Let’s hope this one turns out better than the one December 15th.

Evening bitches. Since I’m hanging with the family, I’m not sure I can get away with live blogging tonight. But I’ll jump in when I can. Luckily my dad has good booze so I can manage to sit through this one.

LOL Gabe! Flame on my brother…
Anyone with feeds? I think this one is going to be hard to find for some!

We lost to Nashville last night, and of course, these guys before that, so just because Stastny is out, if I were Avs fans I wouldn’t be completely freaked out.
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 12/27/08 at 08:38 PM ET
I’ve polled the interns on that Gabe. You’re safe. Snow blower jokes are fair game.

Malik reports Chelios in for Lidstrom.

Evening ladies!
Alright Gabe going for the jugular right outta the blocks! Joe’s learning that opposable thumbs are a gift!

I’m fine with Conks again. Hopefully Nik isn’t out more than a game or 2. Be awful nice for him to play in Little Gary’s WC.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/27/08 at 08:47 PM ET
I’m praying Lids gets to play in the WC. Chelios too.
BTW, I’m still looking for recommendations on 19-based signage to be displayed at Wrigley if you all have suggestions.

Anybody got a live feed??
Posted by Rumbear from Top O da Hasek, sippin rum & catchin some rays on 12/27/08 at 08:52 PM ET
Yeah, My awesome sis got tickets for us. We’re on the 1st base side. I’ve already got my Chelios jersey laid out in preparation for all of the friends I’m bound to make.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 12/27/08 at 08:53 PM ET
J.J. You MUST include a shout out to the Douche Canoe from the rear of the Hasek.
Vinegar and water freezes in sub-zero temperatures doesn’t it? Now I’m concerned.
Slow hockey day = talking about Hank’s beard. I’d rather hear them talk about his lack of performance last night.
Posted by The Hurricane on 12/27/08 at 08:55 PM ET
Feed. Just saw this yesterday.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 12/27/08 at 08:56 PM ET
Nothing up on Justin TV.
Time to pause the search and pour a splash of 10 Cane rum. Cheers MO!

By the way….was the Knitting Lady a member of the 19…honorary or otherwise? I imagine that old lady had a brick and a vial or two of Octopus urine in her purse.
Another landmark gone….thanks Gary! ASS!
Posted by The Hurricane on 12/27/08 at 08:58 PM ET
I think knitting lady should be made an honorary member of the 19 postumhousely.

“It Ain’t a Rivalry Again ‘Til We Meet in The Playoffs”
or
“The Red Wings Do Not Have Any Rivalries With Non-Playoff Teams”

“It Ain’t a Rivalry Again ‘Til We Meet in The Playoffs”
Bill takes the early lead on that one. I like it.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 12/27/08 at 09:05 PM ET
MO, the access code should be: detroitsports. i tried it and it took me to the emerald bowl. not sure if that’s going to switch at game time or not.
RWBill: i like the second one.
And JJ, if it’s 45 and slushy my recommendation for a sign would be: It’s freezing in Ann Arbor Gary. Ass.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 12/27/08 at 09:06 PM ET
Access code “detroitsports” but I get the Emerald Bowl from ESPN on that link.
Looks like I’ll have to delay the video feed cuz they’re showing the freaking Altitude Sports.
wxyt.com it is.
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 12/27/08 at 09:08 PM ET
Altitude idiots: “...looking for a revival of this rivalry.” Sorry boys. That thing is dead and buried.

With a broom stick shoved in the ass of the Dive for good measure.

We found the body that way. Honest.

So I’m stuck watching my folks play mario kart on the wii while we DVD the game. Argh. Gonna need a LOT more alcohol.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 12/27/08 at 09:12 PM ET
Oops meant dvr the game. Stupid spell check.

That is classic Jen. We may need pictures.

Sup peoples…
Lilja got saved by Raffy, but I’m generally liking this “try to take them out early” approach to stepping up. They’ll think twice about going up the middle.
Lilja on the first line should be a sign of the appocalypse.
Posted by Osrt on 12/27/08 at 09:16 PM ET
Hmmm already tired of seeing the little old lady behind Uncle Mike. She scares me.
Posted by The Hurricane on 12/27/08 at 09:17 PM ET
Chelios almost beat up a ginger kid…I would have paid good money to see that.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 12/27/08 at 09:17 PM ET
Altitude now talking about how old Chelios is. Only took them 5 and a half minutes of game time.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 12/27/08 at 09:18 PM ET
terrible. we were scrambling like kids with add.
Why the hell is Raffy trying to cover a point shot?
Posted by Osrt on 12/27/08 at 09:19 PM ET
Deflected off a Wing stick, a shaft if you will.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 12/27/08 at 09:19 PM ET
Wings look listless at best. Mentioned this today, I think. Two days in a row, each day flying into a road city the day of the game, is *#$%@& ridiculous.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 12/27/08 at 09:21 PM ET
Looks like it’ll be another bad start. No flow…
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 12/27/08 at 09:21 PM ET
WTF 3 things wrong on that goal.
1. Rafalski should have going with momentum behind Conklin and blasted the puck out instead of stopping and reversing.
2. All 4 Red Wings were below the goal line at the same time.
3. Rafalski back handed the puck out in front of the net (did I see that right?)
Is this why we are not the same team without #5 on the ice?
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 12/27/08 at 09:22 PM ET
Big save by Conks there. we need some energy out there.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 12/27/08 at 09:24 PM ET
I’m running around…
from the BBQ, to the big screen to the computer (no F$@@*&% link!), another drink and back again…..
just like the the Wings.

Leopold has no balance and Kopecky gets punished for it?
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 12/27/08 at 09:27 PM ET
What was the call on that? The specific penalty? What a horseshit call.
