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.

Way too many missed nets…whoo, great hit by Drake.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/26/08 at 08:31 PM ET
Lilja, it was mostly pushing behind the net. MAF should’ve gotten a butt-end as he sticked Homer in the gut coming around the net.

Not old or drunk. I think it’s the HepC.

Drake PLASTERS Orpik!!
I loved the quote, “Drake tries to put Orpik into the penalty box without opening the door”.

I wish CBC was in HD; that would be perfect.
You could see every girlish tear of Gary’s Baby Boy as it falls to the ice in absolute clarity.
‘Course, then you’d have to put up with an HD shot of that peach fuzz he calls a playoff beard. *shudder*
Drake on Orpik. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. And once again we’re reminded of why we signed Drake. AND he’s making the League minimum. Absolute steal considering the postseason he’s bringing us.

CBC HD rules!! Skate to the throat boys!

How does Drapes avoid penalties? He’s always hanging on the player he’s covering?
Not that I’m complaining, just amazed.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/26/08 at 08:34 PM ET
I’d have given twenty bucks to see Lindsay drill Little Gary right there.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 05/26/08 at 08:34 PM ET
Lilja(!) does it again… way to save us Ozzie!
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 05/26/08 at 08:35 PM ET
Cripes Lilja! What the F?
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 08:36 PM ET
JESUS LILJA!!
SIT. THE. F__K. DOWN.

correction… post saved us!

Seriously, Gabe? I didn’t know that. Gosh. Now I feel kinda bad.
Must keep up with celebrity news. I’ll switch over to E! after the game. Er, I might switch over to E from my tea. Er…
Lil’ Gary sullies Mr. Hockey by his mere presence. What I wouldn’t give to see that eighty year-old man give Bettman one of his famous flying elbows right about now…
And what a miss—twice—by Pittsburgh. Heh.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/26/08 at 08:36 PM ET
well…goodness Lilja reminds us why he should never be allowed on the ice..
Posted by Osrt on 05/26/08 at 08:36 PM ET
This image(also stolen, to big for the post) summarizes Lilja.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/26/08 at 08:36 PM ET
*snicker* No Andrew, I’m spreading rumors. But he was with the Hepatitis poster child…so I imagine there’s a better than average chance.

Where was Terrible Ted? CBC showed Lil’ Gary with Howe.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/26/08 at 08:39 PM ET
I love how Draper’s beard is a completely different color than his hair.
Posted by C3091 on 05/26/08 at 08:39 PM ET
Oh, that CBC shot of Crosby on the bench was priceless.
Looked like a lost little boy pleading for it all to be over with.
Posted by jrl123 on 05/26/08 at 08:40 PM ET
Wings really need to pot one on the PP, switch up the mojo!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/26/08 at 08:40 PM ET
Where was Terrible Ted?
Looked like he was in the Illitch family suite.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 08:41 PM ET

Yeah, but you’d risk hepatitis to hit that too…admit it.
Fleury coulda had that toss bite him in the butt. He’s lucky.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/26/08 at 08:42 PM ET
Alright guys, outta here. RB, check your inbox. Go Wings!
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 05/26/08 at 08:42 PM ET
Aww, why did it have to be Drapes with that chance?
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/26/08 at 08:42 PM ET

Might have had a better chance if it banked at the net off his face.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 08:44 PM ET
SHOTS ON GOAL
1st 2nd T
PIT 6 6 12
DET 12 10 22
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/26/08 at 08:45 PM ET
our PP has been pretty ordinary, if not bad tonight. We really need to get some better chances when we have the man advantage.
Posted by A II R from Los Angeles, CA on 05/26/08 at 08:47 PM ET
Whoa—Sykora’s only logged 8:40 of ice time tonight. That’s some tough minutes from your SECOND LINE!
Way to try to win, Therrien.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/26/08 at 08:48 PM ET
Oh, okay—Therrien’s mixing up lines mid-game, hence Sykora’s low minutes. That’s not desperation or anything, certainly not.

CBC glowing about Z and Dats (“the best player in this game”)....
why am I watching CBC? Because VS is breaking up and now has no sound! I had Comcast come out and check this out before, got it all fixed, and now here it is again. I HATE COMCAST, VS…
Posted by Osrt on 05/26/08 at 08:54 PM ET
Red Wings are turning this game boring.
It’s beautiful!
Posted by J.J. from kansas on 05/26/08 at 08:54 PM ET
Huh. Osrt, I’ve got CBC with the sound cutting out—but with my dish fixed, it’s NASN that has the problem—they’ve done this before. Another snotogram on its way to them tomorrow.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/26/08 at 08:57 PM ET
why am I watching CBC?
I’d rather watch CBC, but we don’t get that strange furriner teevee here in Kentucky.
So I’m stuck with the losers on VS.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 08:58 PM ET
PIT has 12 shots, 6 from the PP!!
Freaking Awesome “D” by the Wings.
Stay out of the Box in the 3rd!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/26/08 at 08:58 PM ET
CBC usually breaks up for us. Holding up well so far though. And, yeah, Comcast. Stupid internet keeps crapping out too. I’ll never call their 1-800 number again, though, unless it’s to cancel. That’ll be a good day.
Posted by jrl123 on 05/26/08 at 08:58 PM ET
Hold me…hold me…never let me go…
Take some more stupid calls, Pens.
Posted by jrl123 on 05/26/08 at 09:02 PM ET
Please pot on this PP, just to remove even more tension!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 05/26/08 at 09:02 PM ET
Ok seriously, the Wings need to it step up on the PP.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 09:02 PM ET
And is it just me or Sammy disappeared tonight?
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 09:03 PM ET
Yep, PP looking lazy still. Dunno whats going on or how the heck that’s the weak part of the Wings game tonite.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 05/26/08 at 09:03 PM ET
I do think the Pens have really stepped it up on the PK, though
