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.

The only part of the PENS game worth a crap is their PK
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/26/08 at 09:05 PM ET
ugh… Another lousy PP. <begin rip>I’m pretty sure it’s all Filpulla’s fault. <end rip>
And did I just hear my Cyclones get mentioned on national teevee???

PP moving the puck well and getting good chances, but they just can’t seem to put ‘em in the net. Nuts.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/26/08 at 09:05 PM ET
I said earlier the PP was looking ordinary or just bad, and it’s officially been moved to the bad category. Just as Nate A says, it’s lazy and uninspired.

Hey, a Penguin got tossed out of the faceoff circle! Is that the first time this series?
Give ‘em hell, Dats!
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/26/08 at 09:08 PM ET
Pavel mixing it up for the late hit on Z!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/26/08 at 09:08 PM ET
I love Datsyuk… he’s got some of the biggest balls on the team!
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 05/26/08 at 09:08 PM ET
that is an obvious roughing penalty. will the refs have the nads to call it?
wow. they did.
but they even it up and put Pavel in the box. what a bunch of bs.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/26/08 at 09:08 PM ET
Now’s the time for some power play success. Nevermind 4-4.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 05/26/08 at 09:08 PM ET
Way to get feisty Pav. He’ll still win the Pussy of the Year Award. Heh.
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 05/26/08 at 09:09 PM ET
Who would have thought anyone would call Dats a big hitter a couple of years ago?
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 09:09 PM ET
Why did they throw Drapes out of the faceoff against Gary’s boy? Sheesh.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 09:10 PM ET
Osgood run into again...and no call. big surprise.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/26/08 at 09:12 PM ET
Sammy’s back to old Sammy. Passes when he should shoot and shoots when he should pass. Argh.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 09:12 PM ET
No interference call on Malone again.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 05/26/08 at 09:12 PM ET
Did Zets say “Worses” in his VS clip?

I was thinking the same thing

Shots 4 each in the 3rd!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/26/08 at 09:14 PM ET
There’s Cindy, doing what he does best...complaining to the officials. Think the ref said, “Hey, come back when you’ve done something?”
Posted by number9 on 05/26/08 at 09:14 PM ET
What the heck was that about??
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 09:15 PM ET
Datsyuk is absolutely mugged, and no call. unbelievable.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/26/08 at 09:15 PM ET
Nice mugging on Dats. What the F.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 09:15 PM ET
How come the Pens get to run Ozzie and they NEVER get an interference call? Just asking?
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/26/08 at 09:17 PM ET

refs must have heard us.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/26/08 at 09:18 PM ET
Officiating?
Horrid and biased, yes…
But irrelevant.
They have no answer.
They have no answer.
*#$%@& superstition or jinxes,
P.S. Conn Smythe to Malone. Thanks pal!
Posted by TeamDub from The gratch. on 05/26/08 at 09:18 PM ET
Speaking of the Devil, Pens do get an interference call
Imagine that
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Hockey Netherworld on 05/26/08 at 09:18 PM ET
Pens are 50.0% on the faceoffs...and that’s a POSITIVE for them? I guess it’s slightly easier when the refs keep throwing Wings out of the circle.
And THAT’S a goalie inteference call!
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 05/26/08 at 09:18 PM ET
Finally a goaltender interference call on them. Sheesh.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 05/26/08 at 09:18 PM ET
Stuart pushed him?! OMFG. Stuart pushed the OTHER Penguin who was going to run into Osgood.
what a joke these announcers are.
Posted by PaulinMiamiBeach on 05/26/08 at 09:18 PM ET
About frickin time!!!
Posted by Squiboda from Port Huron, MI on 05/26/08 at 09:19 PM ET
I think that’s the first time this year I’ve seen a team take a goaltender interference call when playing against the Wings
Posted by BuzzFledderjohn on 05/26/08 at 09:19 PM ET
Filpulla makes them pay!
Posted by Squiboda from Port Huron, MI on 05/26/08 at 09:20 PM ET
FLIPPER! Man. End-to-freakin’-end.

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
