“Sleep well.”
I gotta let the vodka wear off first. I was expecting another period of OT, so I made another drink. Damn you, Johan!
On another note that nobody has really been talking about, what with all the other “stories” going on in this series...has anyone else notice that Bertuzzie is getting better by the shift?
I keep thinking about Kronwall, but with some alien taking over Lilja’s body, whose place would K take?

WOW! Amazing shot!
I apologize for all the rotten things I have said about Hasek! On to round 2!

Quincy’s, maybe.
I know Kronner has a “huge upside,” but dammit, how many injuries can he take? He does have a tendancy to cough up the puck and didn’t exactly light the world on fire with his offense.
That being said, F the Flames.
(Yep, still drinking and just threw a couple more logs on the fire. The neighbors *hate* me.)
Quincy played a good, steady game for a rookie… I was impressed.

Lilja is a new man, allright. How much better is he, Franzen, and Cleary this year than last? Bertuzzi is really playing well, using his body and controlling the puck. Calder and Bert were huge additions to the team.

Woooooooo!!!!!!!!
Unfortunately, I have a big paper due tomorrow that I still have a lot of stuff to work on so I’m gonna be up late for sure.
But I don’t care, go Wings!!!!!

Geez, I’m amazed he was even able to play, after the slash he took in G5. A modern day Bobby Baun, he is.

“Quincy played a good, steady game for a rookie… I was impressed.”
Yeah, but you gotta figure being paired with Grampa Chelly calmed his nerves.
I only closed my eyes one time this game - and it was the one time Quincy was deep in the corner forechecking…

Hi MC79
*#$%@& off, troll.
Posted by TeamDub from Toledo on 04/23/07 at 12:31 AM ET
Yeah, Lilja has looked surprisingly solid out there. Bert is making some nice strides. Good to see that second line start to make some noise.

MC makes a good point, actually.
There was no reason to suspend Iginla or Langkow considering they basically didn’t show up for last night’s game anyways.

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
