Update: “Sailor” should be capitalized. Baby steps Paul.
The sailor asked me to let you know he should be online around puck drop time.

I had a vision that Turco gets lit up for 5 G/A, and gets pulled!!!

It’s 8 bells! or 7:15, or something.

Pre-Game on Versus!

I’m afraid to switch over to any Versus produced show, but at least it’s not NBC.

Doc and Edzo on the call tonight—better than some other choices
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:13 PM ET
Jeff, consider this: Beninati and Eliot have the Pens-Flyers Final.
Now tell me, do you feel lucky?
Posted by Steve from New Jersey on 05/08/08 at 06:14 PM ET
going to Vegas Steve—going to Vegas
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:14 PM ET
Note that unlike the last series, the commentators WILL NOT change. You have Doc and Eddie for the whole series.
In my opinion, while Doc deserves the accolades, I’m hoping Pat Foley can whip Eddie Olczyk to a more big-game-ready analyst next season.

By the way, that song on that Versus “Competition is Life” promo is “Welcome Home” by New York prog-rockers Coheed & Cambria if your looking for a download.
Posted by Steve from New Jersey on 05/08/08 at 06:20 PM ET
OSRT, that is the number my 15 y/o prgnisticator called as well.
I’m praying that Turco gets chased, so that is my darkhorse call.
I’d more than take your call, so long as Wings 3rd goal isn’t the E/N!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:21 PM ET
Bet Al swirls the octopus about 30 secs prior to opening faceoff!!!

And no DAL player even touches it—bad mojo for the opponent
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:25 PM ET
I hope Ozzie can keep them in the game till they find their legs…;)
Posted by w2j2 on 05/08/08 at 06:25 PM ET
No stress OSRT—-I really think DAL is going to be alot like COL—just too slow to keep up with the Wings.
UNLESS Turco stands completely on his head for the whole series—and he hasn’t ever done that.
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:30 PM ET
Osrt, does that mean all the rocking back and forth I’ve been doing all day has been unofficial?

Wonder if Chief got shang-hai’d?
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:39 PM ET
I’m not stressing Jeff; the baby pacifier if my mouth is all the range amongst the kids these days.
Gabe: rocking only becomes official when Versus and Comcast conspire against me.
I’m not getting the game in HD!
Posted by Osrt on 05/08/08 at 06:40 PM ET
Nervous? Me? Nah… just because my kitty won’t come near me and the wife pleads for me to quit shouting at the TV… nervous? Me?
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 05/08/08 at 06:41 PM ET
Heya guys and gals… trying not to puke…
Go ‘Wings.
Posted by TeamDub from The gratch. on 05/08/08 at 06:41 PM ET
Wings looking just a little rusty!!! EGAD
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:44 PM ET
Howdy Jeff… hope you’re strapped in.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 05/08/08 at 06:45 PM ET
good on Homer pissing people off in front and not throwing jabs back.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/08/08 at 06:48 PM ET
questionable call? where’s the mute button?...
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/08/08 at 06:48 PM ET
Sammy on the back-check—cant believe I just typed that
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:50 PM ET
Great start boys…. a full 60 minutes.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 05/08/08 at 06:52 PM ET
why do all the linesmen play that “I’m gonna drop it! haha fooled you!” game? wtf?!
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/08/08 at 06:54 PM ET
#2 line looking really freaking good again
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:55 PM ET
um, no you moron…that was not “it” - that was long after the penalty was called. how do these guys have jobs?
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/08/08 at 06:56 PM ET
does anyone know where the game is streaming online? need help!
Posted by Alex from San Francisco on 05/08/08 at 06:57 PM ET
alex, I think someone posted a link earlier
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/08/08 at 06:58 PM ET
Well, Paul, at least it’s not the ultimate “dumb it down” commentary team of Thorne and Clement.
Posted by Steve from New Jersey on 05/08/08 at 06:59 PM ET
hmmm…Maltby in, McCarty out…wonder what Babcock’s reason is. McCarty was playing very well. maybe it’s just to get Maltby some game time to get his pace back.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/08/08 at 07:00 PM ET
I wanna see a goal by Hoodlum tonight.
