Every once in a while, at Game 2, a small but vocal band of Hawk fans made their presence felt. They were in one of those overhang deals, kind of a private box in the 202 section. They’d pick and choose their spots and yell it in unison.
“Detroit sucks.”
Idiots in the crowd got angry. They swore and pointed. A few drank some more and yelled more bad things at those people. The Hawk fans laughed and taunted the idiots.
But when Dan Cleary scored to give the Wings a 2-1 lead, something strange happened. Two entire sections, hundreds of people turned at once, peered up at the Hawk fan box and waved. All at once waving. It was awesome.
And I’ll tell you this, no matter how much you hate the Hawk fans…those guys handled it well. They laughed along with us and took it. And when Sammy pooped in a box to end it, those guys shook a few hands before they left. Pretty cool.
Tonite? It won’t even be close. Tonite? If you’re a Wing fan in Chicago you’re not safe and that’s just the way it is.
Because everyone knows what this game means. Wings win and this bitch is done. Over. Hawks? Not so much.
Half a dozen to a dozen.
It’s a Live Blog bitches.

GREAT move by the refs calling all these penalties after they’ve ejected one of our main PP weapons from the game. Gawd. We’re making Khabibulin look like Uke here. Shooting straight into the chest, no rebound, no lateral movement…
...spoke too soon. Another good move from Sammy. Let’s hope it’s enough.

About time. That’s it. No more. No less. I don’t care if they got a goal now or not; they still are playing like shit.

Burrish tries to give the Captain lip. The Captain responds by deflecting his shot off Pahlsson and scoring. Payback is a bitch.

Relief… Just…Relief.
Hossa absolutely created that when he decided that passes should be fast and crisp.

Smart Burish, real smart

Funny thing is, Hawks fans who know anything about anything are probably crapping themselves right now, knowing the Wings are still in the game.
Posted by Bella from puddle of her own vomit on 05/22/09 at 08:38 PM ET
Helm blew up Toews. Attaboy.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 05/22/09 at 09:37 PM ET

Did someone forget to to change the team’s clock back an hour or what?
Posted by mrfluffy from Long Beach on 05/22/09 at 08:43 PM ET
Charlie Buckets has been outstanding. Gotta love the boyo.

IF IF IF we win this, Kronner is no doubt suspended for Sunday.
Incidentally, that goal was all down to the sighting of a legendary beast all too rare this game—a Wings forecheck.
