You’re damn right I switched to Seger. It’s not Night Moves.
Name it.
Then finish it. Please.

Oh come on-- that call on Stewie sucked.
Get with it, CBC.

I want a Zetterdrake stick! Mine says Recchi on it. Lame.

Wow...Lilja actually DREW a penalty
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 05/19/08 at 07:46 PM ET
how is that a penalty on Filpulla?! the guy dove into the zone!
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/19/08 at 07:46 PM ET
Said it before, say it again. Brad Winchester. Dumb as a freaking shovel.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/19/08 at 07:46 PM ET
Way to take one for the team Lils.
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 05/19/08 at 07:46 PM ET
it was the LINESMAN that tripped the Dallas player!
what a bunch of bs.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/19/08 at 07:47 PM ET
Goota love a Lilja who gets up laughing after a guy runs after him…
Posted by Osrt on 05/19/08 at 07:47 PM ET
CBC’s replay shows that Modano tripped over the ref, not Filppula.
Posted by Ryan from Toronto on 05/19/08 at 07:47 PM ET
Can’t wait to boot Brad Winchester from the playoffs. What a tool.
Posted by Dave on 05/19/08 at 07:47 PM ET
No shots on that DAL PP
Not even an inch!!!!

I’d set my neighbor’s house on fire and suffer the consequences tomorrow if the Wings are up 2-0 after 1.
well?
flame on!
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/19/08 at 07:48 PM ET
Yeah Chief. And pictures or it didn’t happen. 
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 05/19/08 at 07:49 PM ET
At least Dallas didn’t have their power play carry over to the first minute of the second period, when the ice’ll be nice and smooth.
Oh, wait…
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/19/08 at 07:49 PM ET
20 down...that couldn’t have gone much better

I’ll be back. Andrew...cover me.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 05/19/08 at 07:50 PM ET
I’m so happy...I feel like… dancing.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 05/19/08 at 07:51 PM ET
Kelly? Mr. Hrudey? Dave Tippett’s trying to get your attention. I think he wants you to get your gear on. You’re going in in the second.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/19/08 at 07:51 PM ET
Andrew...that post at 8:36...poetic.
You in to the absinthe already?!!!
Posted by Rumbear from Sandy Eggo on 05/19/08 at 07:51 PM ET
227 posts by the end of the 1st? Nice.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 05/19/08 at 07:53 PM ET
@Rumbear
No, it’s worse...he’s into the Tom Waits.
Posted by BuzzFledderjohn on 05/19/08 at 07:53 PM ET
3-0 leads make me nervous. I wonder why?
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 05/19/08 at 07:54 PM ET
Chief - a little Talking Heads action?
Posted by hockeychic from Denver, CO on 05/19/08 at 07:54 PM ET
I’ll be back. Andrew...cover me.
Erm...okay.
“Nobody’s gonna tell a Navy man when he’s had enough to drink! Stow the grog! Man the chowder! All hands on deck! Blow the man down! I’m Popeye the sailor man! Er...”
That’s it, I’m out of material. Chief, did you mean you wanted covering fire? I’m much more capable of that.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/19/08 at 07:54 PM ET
Chief, I hope you at least gave them a coupon for the local Holiday Inn.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 05/19/08 at 07:55 PM ET
You in to the absinthe already?!!!
WAY too early for that...it’s 3 AM.
Gotta be at least 8 AM before I break out La Fee Verte.
It’s ALWAYS time for Tom Waits, though.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/19/08 at 07:57 PM ET
Watching the justin.tv feed. Having a ball with some Wings fans.
I’m registered as PmaguireDcanoe....come in and say HI!
Not too confident peeps....about to face a cornered dog. Injuries are inbound!!!!! Let’s just hope we’re dishing.
Posted by Scott H from Kalamazoo on 05/19/08 at 07:57 PM ET
Nah. They’re Air Force Mike. They’ll get by ok.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 05/19/08 at 07:57 PM ET
Well then… they’re used to adversity.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 05/19/08 at 08:00 PM ET
NASN usually has info for the games along the lines of “[Player Name] and the Detroit Red Wings roll into Dallas looking for a road win against [Player Name] and the Stars.”
Tonight? “Resurgent Dallas will look to continue their remarkable fightback against the Detroit Red Wings in game 6 of the Western Conference Finals series.”
Screw you, NASN. And screw you, Bettman.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/19/08 at 08:00 PM ET
Shots on goal:
DET 13
DAL 6
My math isnt that great. But Marty’s save % is like .64%
Eat.It. Marty!!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/19/08 at 08:03 PM ET
Excuse me while I sharpen my nails
And just who are you this time?
You look rather tired
Tough to talk smack with Tom Waits.
Posted by Dave on 05/19/08 at 08:04 PM ET
Mike from LA...I think you meant Diversity.....
Posted by Rumbear from Sandy Eggo on 05/19/08 at 08:04 PM ET
“le tour” ... are you sure we’re the right demographic Versus?
Posted by lilja4ever on 05/19/08 at 08:05 PM ET
1st Period
03:45 Kris Draper, Assists: Dallas Drake and Brad Stuart
11:41 PPG - Pavel Datsyuk, Wrist Shot - Assists: Nicklas Lidstrom and Henrik Zetterberg
16:17 Dallas Drake, Wrist Shot - Assists: Brett Lebda and Mikael Samuelsson
Drake a goal and an assist
Stuie with an assist
Sammy with an assist
Good call by Uncle Mike juggling the lines, eh?
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/19/08 at 08:05 PM ET
wow, Draper is amazing. he was in two places on the ice at one time!
Versus idiot: “he gives it to Kris Draper who chips it in for Dallas Drake. on the other side, there’s Kris Draper...”
dolt.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/19/08 at 08:06 PM ET
Notice Turdco is standing up trying to draw the foul as opposed to making the save...TOOL!
Back to the BIG screen!

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
