Seriously.
Is this guy going to deny the Detroit Red Wings a spot in the Finals where providence has decreed they belong?

Ummm….I don’t think so either.
5 to 12 and it’s a Live Blog, bitches. Because The Captain says it is.

Yay, Nick!
I’m eating Arby’s for dinner because I didn’t feel like cooking and Marian Hossa is such a tease, I got tired of waiting for him.

Ladies and Gents -
LOOOOOOOONG time lurker here, figured I might as well start posting. I’m deep in the heart of Hawkland sporting my red number 96.
GO WINGS!

One way or another I’m going to have to DVR a Saturday game thanks to work. Let’s put the kids to bed and make it the Penguins. Forget the extra rest, this team will never be more prime to get finished off than they are now. Don’t let them think they can get back into it.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 05/27/09 at 05:40 PM ET
One game at a time. Skate to throat. Give no quarter. Bitches.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Marian’s gonna send out a message tonight that he’s on his way…

I’m off to the bar tonight to watch with friends. High hopes that we’ll be done with the Hawks when I stumble in the door.
Hossa is done teasing you Ms. B. Tonight’s his night for 3.
Let’s Go Wings.

A II R, got any predictions for us tonight? You did quite well on Sunday.

Let me step in here before the action starts.
Wanted to thank everyone for their donations and kind words regarding KK/A2Y.
You folks really came through when I needed it the most- Thanks again!

You mean before we get hysterical and incoherent? Wise man.
You’re quite welcome - it’s our pleasure to help.

I’m headed for the local watering hole.
Y’all have fun in here.

Don’t have much of a feeling tonight Incog. Really just want to end this series and be on to the finals. Like many others that have already posted, I do think Hossa is going to continue to roll. Him and Fil just looked great out there lately.
Posted by A II R from Los Angeles on 05/27/09 at 06:03 PM ET
Btw, I have a friend who will be at the game tonight. He’s been to the other winning home games so I’m hoping his lucky streak doesn’t end here tonight.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/27/09 at 06:07 PM ET
Weird. I’ve got two computers open to this same page. It’s like A2Y in visual stereo. ![]()
(I just bought a new computer and I’m trying it out - my old one is having periodic mini-strokes.)
Posted by Baroque from Michigan on 05/27/09 at 06:12 PM ET
glad to be back to a liveblog after having to miss the last few. lets go wings!!!!!! hossa smells blood in the water, and by blood i mean the stanley cup by demolishing his former team.

Here’s a pic he just sent me:

I’m so freaking jealous.

I think its been said before in the thread earlier, but YOU’RE the one who really comes through when a lot of people need it.
Waiting for a check to clear to do my part.
Not sure about tonight….
LET’S GO RED WINGS!!!!
BTW - Ken Daniels was just on the pregrame show on NHL network. Good to hear him but pisses me off that we are left with Vs and NBC.
Posted by eyesris from Asheville, NC on 05/27/09 at 06:15 PM ET
Well, after the long weekend and a couple of unfortunately timed power outages (frickin DTE) I’m back and ready for this shite. But damnit, why did Pav AND Lids have to get busted?
Still watched both games over the weekend, but it’s just not the same without the liveblog. Even when watching in a brewery.
Lastly, screw you gary and your bass ackward SCF scheduling, you cockmunching dicklick. And Thank you CBC for being sensible and carrying this series and prematurely all of the next. Just try not to say anything stupid tonite please.

MacLeod uses Twitter to break the news that Ericsson’s not on the ice for the warm-up. Meech is skating with Chelios.

It’s the very least any of us could do. Our lives are enriched thanks to the hard work you’ve put in putting together and maintaining this site.
Any donation is invariably smaller than the therapy I’d have to pay for without this support group. Besides, I don’t think hockey addiction is covered by my insurance.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 05/27/09 at 06:20 PM ET
MacLeod now says Jonny had acute appendicitis and underwent surgery this morning. The team claims he’ll be back for the next game.
Posted by Matt Saler from Grand Rapids, MI on 05/27/09 at 06:21 PM ET
If not for you, Paul, none of this would be possible. Kinda makes you think…...Thank You.

Big Rig out with appendicitis…we are getting thin on the blue line

Hrmph.
Thats bad.
How the ell do you have your appendix removed and play the “next game” be it 2 or 5 days? I don’t care what anyone says, hockey is where its at
Posted by eyesris from Asheville, NC on 05/27/09 at 06:21 PM ET
Per MacLeod’s Twitter,,, Ericsson acute appendicitis.

So what does that leave us…
Kronner-Rafi
Stuart-Lebda
Chelli-Meech
wonder if Chelli will get more minutes tonight

Did you guys hear that the Big E is out for the game. He had his appendix out this morning.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/27/09 at 06:27 PM ET

I hope it’s a freaking good one. Bitches.

Sure thing, Paul. Stay healthy and keep on bloggin’ on.

acute appendicitis
Jonny E is taking the game off to eradicate acute appendicitis from the face of the earth. There’s one less thing I have to be afraid of.
Seriously tho…*#$%@&
Posted by cephalopod from Chicago...nope, still not over it. on 05/27/09 at 06:30 PM ET
I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if one day we found out that Jonny Ericsson removed his own appendix, without anesthesia. Then he gave it to Franzen to feed to Kane tonight.
