Everything that had been going wrong up to Monday went right against the dastardly Poultry. All ills: solved. Sustainability? We’ll see.
That’s the key: sustained superior performance.
It’s a Live Blog bitches. Your neutrality is valued and appreciated.

Anyone fully comfortable with this lead?
Hmm.....?

I haven’t been paying attention to Luongo’s backups...anyone have the story on the new goalie?

My feed has quite a lag to it. But that’s ok, because it’s high def.

I take it you mean Schneider? He was posting the best GAA in the AHL before being summoned to Vancouver.

Dirty deuce for Charlie Buckets.
He and Oompa Loompa are in a competition for the Wings’ first, you-know-what this year.

Think they’ll wait another 10 days for Bobby Lou now??
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/04/08 at 09:39 PM ET
3 goals in 17 shots still makes me sad.

what a back handed pass to a teammate to get it out of our zone and start the transition game by ZZZZZZZZZZ
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 12/04/08 at 09:41 PM ET
...game’s not over yet. How many did we have on the Penguins before they beat us 7-6?
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 12/04/08 at 09:41 PM ET
that will make you even sadder chief. is sadder a word?
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 12/04/08 at 09:41 PM ET
20 foot rebounds usually mean bad things.

Make that 4 in 18… now where was that Canadian Tobacco again… sigh.

yeah spanky, sadder’s a word. a very appropriate one. look for a vancouver power play any minute. thanks gary. ass.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 12/04/08 at 09:42 PM ET
Dur. Why am I looking forward to when we have a home grown legitimate #1 goalie?

I already asked how comfortable this was.... same thought just didn’t wanna say it
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/04/08 at 09:43 PM ET
now where was that Canadian Tobacco again
That like a “left hand cigarette”?
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/04/08 at 09:44 PM ET
I’m sick of this crap, stop allowing goals. Jesus Christ, it’s just the Canucks.

I am bilingual and ambidextrous, MO.

This team is effin bipolar… And the refs haven’t even gotten themselves involved yet.
Posted by lilja4ever on 12/04/08 at 09:47 PM ET
Somebody want to tell the Wings they aren’t in the Eastern Conference?
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 12/04/08 at 09:47 PM ET
Voox, “left handed cigarettes” were of the 5 leaf variety where I grew up, if that’s whatcha meant by ambidexterous. Just sayin’.
What other language ya speak?

very sloppy right now, we are getting lucky instead of good right now.

Woops. First time I read that I could have sworn it said “somebody want to tell me why the Wings aren’t in the eastern conference?”
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 12/04/08 at 09:53 PM ET
ice looks kinda weird tonight and that is odd.

hence my discomfort in any lead we’ve had this year.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/04/08 at 09:55 PM ET
the mules hustle forced a turnover there. nice.

Well, MO I would never say anything illegal on a public forum. Besides drugs are a sin. Aside from pork and corn, marijuana is Canada’s third largest agricultural cash crop. Lots of sinners.
I would never be sitting down watching a Wings game smoking a glass bong of the finest canadian marijuana. Never. That would be illegal. And a sin. Sinners.

I noticed it last game too but didn’t say anything as it’s normally decent at the Joe til May or so.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/04/08 at 09:57 PM ET
Sickening. 6-5.
I could never be a sinner in times like these.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 12/04/08 at 09:58 PM ET
Of course.
Even if they eek out a win here....looksl ike the last game was a fluke. If we had played this game against a competitive team, the Wings would have been slaughtered.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 12/04/08 at 09:59 PM ET
That’s a goal and we’d better all just get used to this shit right now. We don’t have a goalie capable of stealing, stopping or stemming a *#$%@& thing.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 12/04/08 at 09:59 PM ET
Sinners
Huh. What. Who?
Gary. Ass. On the phone. Goal stands. Call a penalty soon, Zebra.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/04/08 at 10:00 PM ET
Zeebra’s saved the game for us?

I keep saying “It could be worse, we could still have Cheveldae, it could be worse, we could still have Cheveldae.”
But no, we are better than that, we need SOME goaltending. NO stealing games, just playing solid for 60 minutes.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 12/04/08 at 10:02 PM ET
Absolutely freakingly ridiulous win.
Really. 6-5? Seriously.
I said I wasn’t going to bitch but, good grief.

About Abel to Yzerman
Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that. Your suggestions and critiques are welcome:
A2Y Stuff
-----------------------------
Wanna Feel Smart?
Does confusion make you sad? When you read words like "enigma" and phrases like "Thanks Gary. Ass", do you wonder why mean people speak in languages you don't understand? Fret no longer friend! The A2Y Glossary will bring you great joy and enlightenment.
-----------------------------
How Others View The A2Y 19
"Hell, I guarantee the content co-opters at Abel to Yzerman were about to link this article under the heading “Bitter Blues Fans” again right up until they just read that last half-sentance. Thanks but no thanks, you Kukla hangers-on."
--St. Louis Game Time
"I realize it’s the slow summer season, but can this guy tone down the tough-guy histrionics? His posts are fatiguing on an otherwise excellent site."
--A2Y Fan, Eternal_Fields
"I constantly marvel at how Bill (IwoCPO) and his disciples at Abel To Yzerman can be so pompous and full of themselves throughout every regular season, but come playoff time they collapse into wavering puddles of stress and nervousness as they anxiously await the impending and unavoidable collapse of the Red Wings in the post-season."
--Mile High Hockey
"I hate them because they are better than us. Of all the frigging teams…"
--In The Cheap Seats
"It's just a shame that the most classless, uneducated, lowbrow fanbase in the league gets this sweep. Red Wing fans don't deserve their team."
--Thhom
"I really don’t care what fans or bloggers think."
--Drew Sharp
"Why is it you Detroit fans are still so classless when you have such a classy hockey team, with such a professional GM and gentlemen players? I understand that the author of this blog is a manner-less cad, but the rest of you should be better."
--A2Y Fan, Jeff Beaumont
"Have you ever *read* A2Y? Its the most opinionated, juvenile stuff i've read."
--Paul Nicholson
"I actually like the Detroit team and have a sh&% load of respect for them, but their fans are the biggest douches next to Canadians."
--KStewy, PensBlog Commenter
"Just when it looks like we have bottomed out, the 19 hit a new low."
-A2Y legend, Hockeytown Todd
"And for the record, I don't hate the Red Wings, I hate their fans."
--Douche Bag at Puck Daddy who isn't Wyshynski
"You’re nothing but a douchebag ****, c3po. Go f**k yourself, and learn something about hockey in the process. Nothing ruins my day more than seeing your byline on the kk page."
--Hector, A2Y fan, statesman, Pittsburgh Chapter of Jonas Brothers Fan Club President
"I can just imagine the kindergarten teacher’s reaction when the tyke blurts out 'Mommy says Gary Bettman is a f*cking f*ckface! He wants to give ‘Rosby the bad touch.' ”
--Bella, of the 19
"A2Y is what other blog sites aspire to be when they fail to grow up: intelligent immaturity for the juvenile genius set”
--Captain Dennis Polonich, of the 19
