Because that’s what will be required tonite. I see overtime in our immediate future and all that does is suck.
Your tax dollars have done me no favors this week as comms off the warship have been non-existent. And I don’t have the right kind of thumbs to post consistently from my phone. This serves as an exception.
OT tonite. Guaranteed.
Also: a belated thanks to all who showed up for last weekend’s west coaster. Game 6 may be a redux.
Live blog it bitches.

whhaaa is it me or does that “Let’s go Wings” organ sound exactly like the Joe?!! Would make sense, since this has always sort of been Joe Louis West

Well - - at least the PK rocks - -
No call on the goaltender interference - - imagine that

REVIEW THAT YOU PRICKS

Jovo stepped on Jimmah’s pad there. That was pretty bizarre.

That *#$%@& better come back. Yeah…no review. *#$%@& you Gary.

Wait, wasn’t Homer’s shadow in the crease on that one?
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 04/23/10 at 11:19 PM ET
There you go, just kick Howard in the chest, open up some space.
Posted by monkey from lighting my nuts on fire on 04/23/10 at 11:19 PM ET
Homer stands within a foot of the goalie and they call it back, but that’s a good goal?!
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 04/23/10 at 11:19 PM ET
I dont know if that is interference… Jimmy was outside the crease.
Not saying we dont deserve a shit load of called back goals going the other way, but that looked ok to me.

Astoundingly enough, this isn’t going to Toronto…

Even worse is that Franzen just got interfered with worse in the zone than what Datsyuk supposedly did.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 04/23/10 at 11:20 PM ET
So kicking the goalie is legit now?
Posted by FranzensMouthguard from Chicago, IL on 04/23/10 at 11:20 PM ET
Hey Wings! The 2nd period has started. Christ.
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 04/23/10 at 11:20 PM ET
Think it’s been answered already—it’s Howard tapping his own posts while play is down in the other end to remind him of his positioning.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 04/23/10 at 11:15 PM ET
Really? makes sense i guess, but didn’t think it was that simple

Shades of Game 1 all over again
The ‘Yotes hang around - - DET fails to add to their lead - -
and suddenly it is a whole new game
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 04/23/10 at 11:20 PM ET
that was very lucky but we got a break on that Schneid shot during the PK…
Posted by pgoody on 04/23/10 at 11:21 PM ET
And if their defensemen are going to pinch that far down, I want to see some odd-man rushes going the other way.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 04/23/10 at 11:21 PM ET
I don’t like what I’m seeing from the Wings today. I hate playing this Phoenix team. I’d rather be running and gunning with the Blackhawks right about this time…
Posted by cainer4wingsglory on 04/23/10 at 11:21 PM ET
I only know that if that play happens the other way it IS interference every goddanm time!
Posted by WestWing from Portland, Oregon on 04/23/10 at 11:21 PM ET
Jovanovski is a dirt bag jagoff.

Agreed.

Wow, WTF is this? Maybe he’s wearing those newfangled 3D glasses.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 04/23/10 at 11:22 PM ET

the crease is basically meaningless blue paint in today’s NHL.
(2) an attacking player initiates intentional or deliberate contact with a goalkeeper, inside or outside of his goal crease
http://www.nhl.com/ice/page.htm?id=26480
This rule is based on the premise that an attacking player’s position, whether inside or outside the crease, should not, by itself, determine whether a goal should be allowed or disallowed

LAME bad call and a crap ass goal! eat it zebras eat it Gary eat it dogs!
LGRW!!!!!!
Let’s get it done bitches!

wtf call? Anyone know? Anyone?

Really?
Posted by WingsFanInBeanLand from Lidstrom's head telling him 1 more year on 04/23/10 at 11:22 PM ET
well, hell. jimmy was out of the crease, and interference isn’t really reviewable. well, sort of it is in this bettman league. regardless, time to dig in. come on PK
Posted by Hochs from The Kingdom of Fife, Scotland on 04/23/10 at 11:23 PM ET
You are kidding me.
Make up calls galore.
I hate Bettman and I swear to God if I ever see him in person I’m going to punch him in his smug little face. It’ll be worth the jail time,

The energy is starting to resemble game 1.
Posted by RWBill from the Capital of the Confederacy. on 04/23/10 at 11:23 PM ET
69.4 Contact Outside the Goal Crease - If an attacking player initiates any contact with a goalkeeper, other than incidental contact, while the goalkeeper is outside his goal crease, and a goal is scored, the goal will be disallowed.

Nice hit Stuey.
Posted by pilgrim from the ice at the bottom of the world on 04/23/10 at 11:23 PM ET
Nice hit by Stuie.
Posted by Wings_Fan_In_KC from ...somewhere southwest of The Motor City... on 04/23/10 at 11:23 PM ET
Jovanowsky literally stepped on Jimmah before the shot went in. I’ve never seen that before. That was serioulsy freaking bizarre.

make sure the cop is a hockey fan, and you’ll get the key to the city instead of the cuffs.
