Here Come The Banker, The Lawyer And The Cop…All Looking For A Game 2 Live Blog

I guess it goes without saying that should the Wings take a 2-0 lead?  You can start thinking about the lame excuses you’ll use to get out of work for the parade.  Pens win?  Little Gary rejoices and we’ve got ourselves a series.

Reminder:  Predict the game’s first scorer in the comments.  First one to get it right gets a program from Game 1.

Name the song without looking it up and you get…well, nothing really.  But you’ll be cool.

Stuart, short handed

nice call.  too bad it wasn’t shorthanded.  Chief is going to have to review your win and see if it should be waved off.

lol…. well, not NOW! smile  But I think I’ll still rip on Malts a little and see if it works to help him get on in.

Hal Gill takes out Scuderi’s face… I knew he was a pylon when he played on the Leafs… “All Skill” my ass.

Heh, Nate, that was cool.

And I thought Flip got a free pass from a double-minor there—which would have made up for the missed calls for us, but on video review CBC saw Scuderi get hi-sticked…by Hal Gill.

What awesome players.

These close-in shots need to go to the net…not the glass.  Lads?

Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/26/08 at 07:33 PM ET

Gabriel's avatar

Aww c’mon Cleary…you gotta hit the net.  10 minutes in and still no shot from the Pens?

Is there another way to win a hockey game besides putting the puck in the net that we just don’t know about?

Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 05/26/08 at 07:33 PM ET

Not only is that Gill’s stick that smacked Scuderi - CBC showed the replay of the goal, and Stuart’s shot went off Gill in front of the net as well.

So far the big guy is not having a stellar game - but deflections even go in off of Lidstrom, so it isn’t his fault.

At least I picked a defensman!  smile

My wife:  “Were you standing up most of the game?”

Me: “Mostly.”

My wife: “So the people behind you couldn’t see?”

Me: “Umm. There was nobody behind us.”

My wife:  “How much did you pay?”

That’s how it starts.

Still no shots from the Pens.  That’s how you play shutdown, puck-possession hockey.

And Zetterberg gets his!  GOOOOOOOOAL!!!
