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.

CBC: Head of officials says O’Halloran made the call because Kronwall “hit an unsuspecting player high”. What an absolute abortion of a call. I am so embarassed for the league right now. We look like pro wrestling.

Hey RWBill, don’t bother with the Bacon lip balm. It smells and tastes like raw bacon, seems like a big waste.

IF IF IF we win this, Kronner is no doubt suspended for Sunday.
One of the unmistakable truths of this evening.
I’m calling it right now. Win or lose, Kronner will NOT be suspended. The puck was in Havlat’s skates, so it wasn’t a late or early hit. Kronner, for once did not leave his feet until contact was mad. And Kronner kept his elbow down until contact was made. It was a clean hit.
It also occurred early in the first period, so Kronner effectively missed a whole game already.
HABI got pulled!

Wings have outscored opponents 15-5 in the 3rd period in the playoffs this year. Time for a few more boys.

Pure Phugging Panic by Chicago

Hrm. Third-string goalie dressed for the Chickenhawks. Betcha they say Khabi’s got the flu.
Huet hasn’t played in over a month.
Most of our points coming from the blueline…they’ve stepped it up. What other team can boast a defense corps like ours?
Ozzie, savin’ what he saves best. BACON!

His services will still come in handy I feel. There is time yet, grasshopper.

Lebda misses a glorious chance
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/22/09 at 09:08 PM ET
We’ve been hearing Supernintendo Hjarlmalsson’s name a lot. Usually as victim of a hit, but still.
Posted by Stevis on 05/22/09 at 09:10 PM ET
Gotta hustle on those icing plays, guys…
Posted by EFWolverine from Dearborn on 05/22/09 at 09:10 PM ET
I’m calling it right now. Win or lose, Kronner will NOT be suspended.
I place my faith in you, Cap’n.
Almost a hell of a hit by Stu.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 05/22/09 at 09:11 PM ET
Nice job, Stu. Time to friggin’ play, boys.
Posted by mrfluffy from Long Beach on 05/22/09 at 09:11 PM ET
wtf is the Versus announcer talking about? Stuart is on the bench with an equipment problem, while simultaneously on the ice throwing huge checks and touching up for icings.
hmmmm…
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/22/09 at 09:11 PM ET
Good defensive shift by Hoss…picking up where Pasha left off.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 05/22/09 at 09:12 PM ET
C’mon boys, lets get the lead!!
Lets go Red Wings!!!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/22/09 at 09:12 PM ET
Nice job, Stu. Time to friggin’ play, boys.
We’re lucky they didn’t execute him on the spot for the audacity of hitting a Blackhawk hard.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 05/22/09 at 09:12 PM ET
Second straight icing against the Chickenhawks…
