The Wings return to the land of sunshine and silicone for yet another afternoon weekend game.
Thanks to Gary. Ass’ schedule it is the third weekend in a row we play an afternoon game.
But I am in a very bad mood about our last game, and that means today’s LB will feature some nipping and tucking of song choices.
Kronwall is out, as is May who is replaced by Maltby today. I know this because our good friend Jeff from OK told me so in today’s GDT. You see, the past couple of days I haven’t been able to stomach any work of our Diggers. I don’t need drooling analysis of what we all know is a lack of heart and commitment on the Red Wings. I’ll stick to reading the 19 and their blogs for insight with some venom. God bless them all, each and every one of them.
After the amazing victory in San Jose to drop a turd in Anaheim has everybody pissed off. And rightfully so.
So until the Wings start winning games, as we know they are capable of doing, there will be no musical selections for the Live Blog.
If the Wings make us suffer, we shouldn’t sugar coat the LB’s with fun musical choices. It is the homestretch of the season now, the time for fun and games is over. It is time to put the skate to the throat and press down. Bitches.

The fact that we don’t have Leino to deal with anymore makes me automatically more optimistic about today’s game.

Straight to the point, we need to fuching win more than one in 3 games.
There’s no time for fiddling around. It’s make the playoffs or not. Bitches.

I’ve always been confused as to how exactly I should say “Gary. Ass”.
Is it Gary (dot) Ass…like a website (http://www.gary.ass/clusterfcuk) or as a pause. Gary (pause) Ass.
I would understand if I am not privy to this kind of insider information, but this has always perplexed me.
Love the show. I’ll hang up and wait for your answer.

Los Angeles is on a roll and playing very well. The Kings are right now a better team, I think. I don’t expect a win for Detroit in this one.
Of course, it would be just like them to win anyway - and then drop their next two games via skills competitions.

No live blog for me today.
I need to find a new apartment and today is the only spare time i have to go out and look at some places. Being a part-time working student leaves me with very few options…
So. Here is to hoping I find a nice new affordable place and a good Red Wings win to come home to.

Pretty good game in Montreal right now.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Posted by Kate from Pa.-made in Detroit on 02/06/10 at 03:28 PM ET
Happy apartment-hunting, Nati. Good luck!
Posted by Baroque from Michigan on 02/06/10 at 03:33 PM ET
At least Center Ice has both home and away feeds today. Yay.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

I think the *ucks just have the Wings’ number this season. Their forwards match up favourably (in their favour, obviously) to our defence, and there’s not a whole lot they can do about it.
Posted by RedMenace
It is no mystery how the Ducks have manhandled us with what I consider inferior talent.
It is their vigorous forecheck, pressing our D into errors, frantic passes and broken plays. About the same game plan that every team that has beat the Wings in the last 2 seasons have used.
I am afraid today’s game will be ugly.
It is gonna hurt….
Keep the painkillers handy.

Afternoon bitches. I am considering this a must win game. We are currently two points out of 8th place with Dallas three points back from us. Can’t afford to lose.
Posted by stayouttamalibu from Temporarily in Tempe, AZ on 02/06/10 at 03:46 PM ET
No we cannot afford to fall back of Calgary.
I took something easy to understand like a standings list then complicated it with graph-like lines and axis and made it difficult to understand. But what he said is true, we need to win.

Good luck apartment hunting Nati. There are few things I hated more. I will likely have to do it with and for my daughter in Southern California this summer.

1 minute and counting.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Still pissed off from the glove-off-the-stick-redirect-the-puck-with-your-hand goal ? that Anaheim scored.
Hoping for good things today.

FSD feed on center ice, thank god.
Murphy is drunk !!
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 02/06/10 at 04:01 PM ET
Murph with a good bye jab at Leino there… “depth at playoff time”. I see what ya did there Murph.

John Keating. Ugh.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Posted by Kate from Pa.-made in Detroit on 02/06/10 at 04:04 PM ET
God, why do I want to play Call of Duty or masturbate instead of watching this game? Probably because I can more likely achieve a happy ending with the other two.
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 02/06/10 at 04:05 PM ET
26 inches of beautiful snow on the ground. I love it.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Posted by Kate from Pa.-made in Detroit on 02/06/10 at 04:06 PM ET
Can we please NOT give up a first minute goal this game and have to play from Freakin behind all game for once? JFC FML.
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 02/06/10 at 04:06 PM ET
Ready bitches?

All 3 have an end result of a mess? Bodies, a sock & the score.

I hope the Wings saw the same highlights we just saw, talk about wanting to kick someones ass after seeing the *ucks film.

Christ, Quick is tied for the league lead in wins with Martin Brodeur at 33. Wow.

Watchin’ Z chug a lug on the boards in our end… feet pumping away and hardly looked to get going. Something slowing him down we dunno about?
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 02/06/10 at 04:12 PM ET
Jeebus that was close.

Is Ken high? WTF is he talking aboat “have your sights set on LA”. Are you kidding me? We struggle to get our sights set on Calgary.
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 02/06/10 at 04:15 PM ET
Hey Gramps, why does Uncle Mike insist on Lebbie and Big Error game after game? 
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 02/06/10 at 04:15 PM ET
How often do you hear the words “good job by Lebda” for anything.
Posted by stayouttamalibu from Temporarily in Tempe, AZ on 02/06/10 at 04:15 PM ET
Afternoon, bitches. Just heard about Leino. And to think this summer I thought he’d be a Calder candidate.
Posted by Bella on 02/06/10 at 04:15 PM ET
Is that Yahoo feed a Det or La feed?
Posted by stayouttamalibu from Temporarily in Tempe, AZ on 02/06/10 at 04:17 PM ET
Dats has to be one of the best in the league at drawing penalties.
Posted by RedMenace from the darkest recesses on 02/06/10 at 04:17 PM ET
Brilliant pass by Raffi getting it back to Z right there.

I saw you guys have been getting socked in hard by the weather. Have you got your bread, milk, and toilet paper supplies laid in?

As I just posted in another thread on another board:
Here’s hoping we get a Shark-like game and not a Duck-like game.
I think the *ucks just have the Wings’ number this season. Their forwards match up favourably (in their favour, obviously) to our defence, and there’s not a whole lot they can do about it.
I expect a much better outing today. And it’s in HD.
