Oh, it was a barnburner. Right down to the 1830 deadline. And I have to tell you, the first band I cast a vote for? Grand Funk. Part of me was hoping for Glenn Fry so I could yank out some classic Eagles. But there will be many other opportunities for that.
It’s a Live Blog bitches. A provincial LB sponsored by some boys from Flint, a few of whom stayed above a buddy of mine’s grandma’s garage for a few months. Outfriggingstanding. See you guys around 1920.

You want a Madonna tune to headline a live blog? Move to Denver.
You bastard. That was a joke.

Age comes with wisdom? I always thought wiadom was in the isle next to the booze… Guess I’m still young.

I got good feelings. The Wings will play the way they did in the 3rd period of Game 5 just because you mentioned it.
Probably not…just wishful thinking. I really want to see them play that well again someday.

As an ex-resident of Flint town, I’m sad that most people my age know that Flint is the hometown for the thugs from The Dayton Family and fewer realize that’s were GFR came from. Stupid Flintstones.

“You kids don’t know Grand Funk? Mark Farners wild, shirtless lyrics, the bong-rattling bass of Mel Schacher, the competent drum work of Don Brewer?”

I have no idea what to expect of the Edmonton Oilers and their coach tonight. Their record does not jive with the mood of the collective, and as such I can only conclude there are forces at work that we are not privy to at this time.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 11/17/08 at 07:35 PM ET
I think MacTavish is in trouble. I think that some players may be tuning him out and that this may be the beginning of the end for him. I like MacT but I don’t necessarily think that a change behind the bench would be a bad thing.
I think its coming.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 11/17/08 at 07:37 PM ET
Yeah but McT mas been there for 8 years of sucky teams. Why is this cast of players going to oust him over the previous?
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/17/08 at 07:39 PM ET
12 pack of 12 oz’ers you mean Sir?
Confirmed.

Wow. Openly calling out Penner like that…fricken harsh.

Fil, Kopy n Huds…?
WTF did Fil do to deserve that?

MO, I’m not going to be around the liveblog tonight, but I’m thinking Saturday against Calgary might be a good opportunity. Email me at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) and let’s see if we can get something set up.

And just like their respective playing days, 8 years of Mac T is better than 16 games of the Mullet.

Decision: McCarty. Attaboy Mac.

the bong-rattling bass of Mel Schacher,
Amen Brother!

Murph made a point!! Murph made a point!! Mac does look better with the fists.

And not just the fight…good jump on his shift.

According to my slide rule, which says that the Wings’ effort in the 3rd period is inversely proportional to their 1st, we will give up 13 goals in the 3rd.

Ouch. How can you Souray bitch about that one?
Posted by clemshady from Greenwood, SC on 11/17/08 at 07:46 PM ET
Guarantee no one understood a word Souray just said.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 11/17/08 at 07:46 PM ET
Sammy on the point. Maybe he just smells bad and Babcock doesn’t want him on the bench?
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 11/17/08 at 07:47 PM ET
Nice job, Homer - the lift of the foot made the play happen.
Posted by Matt Saler from Grand Rapids, MI on 11/17/08 at 07:48 PM ET
Good thing he hit the net or he’d have cranked Z behind the net.
Posted by clemshady from Greenwood, SC on 11/17/08 at 07:49 PM ET
Look at Homer letting that puck go past him. Genius move. Great pass from Hank. And all as I was typing that I was about to set myself on fire if Uncle Mike puts Sammy out there for another 5-3.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 11/17/08 at 07:49 PM ET
yes!!!

Seriously, I’ve got the same slide rule Gabe.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/17/08 at 07:49 PM ET
Matt, I thought he was trying to redirect hte pass into the net with his skate and just missed. Shows you what I know.

I think there’s a minimum number of characters required for a post, Rummy.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 11/17/08 at 07:51 PM ET
Could be, Gabriel. Maybe I’m giving Homer too much credit! Either way, it let the puck through, though.
Posted by Matt Saler from Grand Rapids, MI on 11/17/08 at 07:51 PM ET

ummmm….never mind.
