The polls are closed. And after 119 votes, I’ll admit it. I recorded the first one this morning and it went to Triumph. “Magic Power” is easily in the IwoCPO top ten. I’m also a big Guess Who fan and I even dig me some Neil Young when the time is right.
I can also tell you this: I’ve never listened to a second of a Tragically Hip song, I don’t think. But peer pressure’s a bitch so I stuck ‘em in there. It came down to the wire between Rush and Young, with a push from Ronnie Van Zant’s pal the last 90 minutes or so. The selected lyric? Well, that just fits.
Oh, and Subdivisions? Not the song we chose, obviously. But to set the record straight…“Conform or be cast out..” followed later by “be cool or be cast out.”
I’m just sayin’.
It’s a 3-man genius of a Provincial Live Blog bitches.
And if you’re without TV? Yahoo’s got it.

Well not only is the food questionable at best, but it takes like 11 bucks to fill me up whenever I’ve been there. That, and I think I could recreate the Arby’s meat with motor oil and some construction paper.

Crapola. Seems like Ozzie hasn’t been able to control the puck very well tonight.

Sammuelson “tried” to clear it….

Sounds like the call from Toronto was heard loud and clear?

Uncle Mike should waive the white flag, Nielson style

You can’t do that to my boy.
Are you F*(#$&%*($#% KIDDING ME???

Ack!!!! What the crap. I’m having awful flashbacks right now.

Zeeeeeeeeeeebrrrrraaaaaaa. In that nasal voice…...

That stick looks a bit illegal…

See all you guys started going on about hat-tricks and what-not. ARGH… jinxes.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/20/08 at 11:22 PM ET
Looks like Oz is guessin’ alot hence the lack of rebound control
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/20/08 at 11:24 PM ET
WHAT THE HELL DRAPER!!
Shoot it down the F$^^#&^%#& ice!

I tried to warn them. The hockey gods hate hubris. They become vengeful and angry gods.

Kinda like a 3 goal lead tends to lead to sloppy borderline lazy play at times.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/20/08 at 11:28 PM ET
That’s totally unrealistic. My girlfriend would rather I give her the clap than Arby’s.
Posted by Tyler from Lansing on 11/20/08 at 11:29 PM ET
I’m not going to be able to breathe for this last freaking minute and a half.

Awesome. Truly.

I hate it when I hate having a lead at them very end of a game. Doesn’t make sense unless you are a Wings fan.

That should be a permanent staple of this blog somewhere.

Damn Fil, you couldn’t hit that empty net? Shanny hit one from centre ice under much more strenuous conditions.
Posted by Alex from Innisfail, Alberta on 11/20/08 at 11:33 PM ET
I’ll take an ugly win over a pretty loss any day.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/20/08 at 11:34 PM ET
Score not indicitave of the game really. We carry much of the play but have to pucker up at the end.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/20/08 at 11:34 PM ET

hell, ozzie can hit it too

Z wasn’t under much stress on his chance either
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/20/08 at 11:36 PM ET
Fil and Z missed the gaping net. Wings just love one-goal games I guess.

My own Wingian version of a Yogi-ism. Makes perfect sense in it’s nonsense.

happy:
“we’re in canada, and they love hockey here”
GD i love hockey player interviews
Posted by rwingscup19 from Dallas on 11/20/08 at 11:40 PM ET
Maybe it’s a good thing that I rarely get to watch the Wings. I’d probably have a heart attack by the end of the regular season if I watched every game.
