So is Crosby, but who’s counting.

That first period was a nightmare. Holy turnovers, Batman. Kronwall - just a bad break, ai yi yi. Pens are bringing the game. Wings look sloppy. I hope they regroup during intermission and come out in the 2nd like we know they can. I’m back here in the Hasek car on the floor once again. Please don’t step on me.
LET’S GO RED WINGS!!!!!

We’re still up 3 games to 1 nimrod.

The Wings r obviously not on their “A game” but lets see what happens in the second period.
Posted by wingsfan5664 on 06/02/08 at 08:04 PM ET
Ha. Doc, we’re upset because we wanted to win it at home in game 5. We’re confident because Crosby’s not willing 3 consecutive wins.
And this game’s not over.

mudshark we were down 2 goals to the caps in game 2 1998. Doug Brown had a big 3rd period and we won in OT.

“The power of Karen’s breasts compel you…”
Hey Gabriel,earlier today,someone told me that women have a hard time on the internet.
I’m confused here:-)
Posted by dougie on 06/02/08 at 08:05 PM ET
Also you OBVIOUSLY don’t get the whole concept of the Hasek Club Car or The Stress Train.
Oh he gets it, he’s been here before. It helps to ignore him. (Gets up, picks up drink/entire bottle and moves to the back of the car.)

Mike…he was suggesting that we’re soon going to concede the game by saying “We’re still up 3 games to 2”.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 06/02/08 at 08:05 PM ET
Well Dr. IF your little pens win, we still will be up 3-2 in the series…
so there ya go

Karen Newman marry me, if Chief’s daughter wont.
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 06/02/08 at 08:06 PM ET
Is anyone else tempted to watch the game on mute so they don’t have to hear the Sidney Crosby stroke fest?
Posted by jeffreyonfire from Edmonton, AB on 06/02/08 at 08:06 PM ET
Dougie, I respect her. But if she wants to show ‘em to me, I’m not going to complain.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 06/02/08 at 08:07 PM ET
I’m not desparate or anything, what no, I’m not doing anything with this knife or my cat.
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 06/02/08 at 08:07 PM ET
I concede NOTHING. If this series isn’t over then this game isn’t damn well over.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 06/02/08 at 08:07 PM ET

nice. snappy. comback.
I’m surprised crysby wasn’t used instead.

When my girlfriend broke up with me she said “I can’t keep seeing a pedophile.”
I said, “Pedophile?! That’s a pretty big word for a 10 year old!”

Is that thing still around? I thought for sure you sacrificed it for the last game.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 06/02/08 at 08:08 PM ET
2 own-goals but 40 minutes to go. MAF is prone to soft goals and big rebounds. Fire away.
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 06/02/08 at 08:09 PM ET
Okie Jeff…nine iron?
or shall I play thru?

spellcheck,troll.
Posted by dougie on 06/02/08 at 08:10 PM ET
Turk, a Wing comeback would be a stretch after the way the first period was played. Clearly, Detroit looked like garbage, two own goals, missed open nets, misfired breakaways.
But…if the unlikely happens, and the Cup is raised tonite, I really hope you’re around to soak it in right here at A2Y.
One way or the other, the Wings are winning this series. Tonite. Wednesday. Saturday. And when they do, your BS will be cut and pasted.
Go Wings. End this thing tonite.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 06/02/08 at 08:10 PM ET
Ok here we are… Period 2 lets see how it plays out. (Hopefully not like the first.)
Posted by wingsfan5664 on 06/02/08 at 08:11 PM ET
Dammit. Dammit. Never seen these guys play with nerves before. Ugh.
Posted by TDeters on 06/02/08 at 08:11 PM ET
Doug Brown had a big 3rd period and we won in OT.
Do it for Doug Brown, boys!!!
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 06/02/08 at 08:11 PM ET
@ Rumbear, you can play through, just watch out for those flaming intestines, as Hobbs has given his last full measure for the Wings.
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 06/02/08 at 08:12 PM ET
where’s my team???
Posted by Rumbear from Top O da Hasek, sippin rum & catchin some rays on 06/02/08 at 08:12 PM ET
WOW. This is surreal. Turnover after turnover. We are going to get run out of the arena if we don’t freakin get it together
Posted by A II R from Los Angeles, CA on 06/02/08 at 08:12 PM ET
Oh hell that was a shitty start to the 2nd…
What is going on here guys…
Posted by arelius19 from maryland… unforunately on 06/02/08 at 08:12 PM ET
Damn this is awful
Cindy on a break good grief

BS???...you guys have it piled so HIGH with all the pregame Cup-passing talk…I couldn’t see my monitor [and it smelled like I was standing at the corner of Jefferson & SY Way]
Posted by dr. turkleton on 06/02/08 at 08:14 PM ET
All the pressure on us for this game. And they’re taking the pressure to heart.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 06/02/08 at 08:14 PM ET
Why is the 4th line scoring all the goals???
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 06/02/08 at 08:15 PM ET
woooooooooooooooooooooo! right back in it boys!
Posted by A II R from Los Angeles, CA on 06/02/08 at 08:15 PM ET
Soft Goal!! What I said - Fire at MAF He’s soft!
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 06/02/08 at 08:15 PM ET
Freaking A YEAH!!!!!
