Ozzie lets that last one in and it would be time to consider warming up Dom.

Damn that was frigging awful 2 on 1
Wings aren’t in the game at all
Must be nerves

Is it over yet?
Posted by Margot from Atlanta on 06/02/08 at 07:49 PM ET
Kronner mistake forced by hall…even Babs said they looked nervous.
We’re rolling four lines; Newman’s blessing(s) will not be denied.

I can’t freaking believe that. Sheesh.

Helm on a break—and what did he hit???
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 06/02/08 at 07:50 PM ET
Great chance by Helm…but am I the only one thinking if only it was someone else?

Cats? Anyone?
This lady downstairs has several. There’s a feral cat and her kitten outside too.

“Next Kris Draper.” Yeah, couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn…

HOLY CRAP SOOOOOOO CLOSE!!! GET IT IN THE NET WINGS!!!
Posted by wingsfan5664 on 06/02/08 at 07:51 PM ET
Ok, the Wings need to get their act together SOON.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 06/02/08 at 07:51 PM ET
First intermission better be character time.
Yeah, time for a trip to the shed with Uncle Mike, fer sure.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 06/02/08 at 07:51 PM ET
That was nearly beautiful. Please reward Fil’s hard work.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 06/02/08 at 07:52 PM ET
I need to get to my buddies house ASAP. I’ve watched games 1, 2 and 4 at his place. Guess where I didn’t watch game 3.
Posted by Alex in Cambridge, Ontario (Canada EH!) on 06/02/08 at 07:52 PM ET
I am not going to make it through this one. I thought I was on the stress train but I think I’m actually strapped to the tracks.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 06/02/08 at 07:53 PM ET
That period just frigging sucked
Not at all what I was hoping for
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 06/02/08 at 07:53 PM ET
Whew. Nashville Ice Girl ugly. Uncle Mike’s gotta earn that contract this intermission.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 06/02/08 at 07:53 PM ET
Homer is dishing vengeance tonite.
Wings are playing mostly well. But they mistakes they’re making are doozies. Everybody settle down. Thank you end of period.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 06/02/08 at 07:54 PM ET
Someone needs to pump the keg please….I’m gettin’ nothin’ but foam.

Game’s off. I’m watching “Night at the Museum.” It’s about a bunch of lifeless museum props that mysteriously come to life at night and rage against the dying of the light.
Ok, I’m seriously reaching here, people.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 06/02/08 at 07:55 PM ET
Pens are playing their game. Wings are not. Simple really.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 06/02/08 at 07:55 PM ET
Countdown to 11…...
t-minus 87,87,87,87
Houston, we have a problem.

This is a Haynes commercial, and we’re playing the Cuba Gooding Jr. to Pittsburgh’s Michael Jordan.
This is unacceptable.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 06/02/08 at 07:56 PM ET
Dang…is it February….I need a cat!

You can’t blow a chance like this. And with the kind of leadership they’ve got in the locker room, they shouldn’t.
Regroup. Simplify. Attack. Attack. Attack again. Do the stuff that got us here.
And let’s have some NOISE from the Joe crowd. This game ain’t over yet.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 06/02/08 at 07:56 PM ET
Two own goals. That’s a craptastic way to start.
(The Hossa goal was wide (or damn close) and Ozzie put it in off the shaft of his stick)
The Pengu’s don’t need any help.
Posted by moocat on 06/02/08 at 07:57 PM ET
We were down a few in Game 4 in 98, too, weren’t we? Or was that Game 3?
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 06/02/08 at 07:58 PM ET
wow…..

this overconfident base goes from parade to jumping off the Ambassadors Bridge
Posted by dr. turkleton on 06/02/08 at 07:58 PM ET
Homer need to stop the crap and play his game.
Kronwell needs to fine tune his shot by 180 degrees.
Two shots and this games tied.
But, they have to take the shots…

kinda like Hudler’s wide backhand off of MAF & in for the GWG….
karma’s a bitch, ain’t it?

Posted by dr. turkleton on 06/02/08 at 08:00 PM ET
Dr. Turk, here’s a clue. It’s called sarcasm. Also you OBVIOUSLY don’t get the whole concept of the Hasek Club Car or The Stress Train.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 06/02/08 at 08:01 PM ET
when’s the….
we’re still up 3 games to 2 gonna start????
-wait for it…
-wait for it….....
Posted by dr. turkleton on 06/02/08 at 08:02 PM ET
OK, OK, OK. Settle down boys. Let’s regroup during the INT and come out blazing. They were down 1 in Game 4 and came back to tie and win. No reason they can’t kick it in gear and do the same. They have stepped it up when they had to this PO season. MULE! DATS! ZETTS!~ Let’s see some magic and maybe a little mojo from Demolition Man. *drinks heavily*

I wanna know what Pens fans sacrificed to the hcokey gods tonight.
