Marty…We’re Not Kidding.  Put The “V” Away.

Dude.  You gave up like 11 goals to the Wings last week.  Enough is enough.

Put the V away.  And to all you transplants out west?  Good on ya.

Bob Duff

It also doesn’t hurt that many ex-patriot Michiganders make their homes in some of those opposing towns. “It helps,” Osgood said. “In San Jose, they don’t like us there and it’s the same in Dallas, but there’s a lot of (Wings) fans in Anaheim and L.A. and especially in Phoenix, which just makes it fun and enjoyable for us to play. We enjoy the support and we want to perform well, because they only get a chance to see us once or twice a year.”

It’s a Live Blog bitches.  On Versus.  Oh, the quality.

I can’t believe that ya’ll are complaining about the commentary.  Creative use of the language, sure, but at least they’re talking about hockey.  They’re even usually talking about what’s happening on the ice.  That alone puts this miles above what I’ve come to expect from Versus.

Okay, Osgood hasn’t been all that bad, actually. I retract my earlier statement. This is the Stars and their good luck together with the Wings’ apparent disinterest in playing defense.

And you’d think that guy’d been shot in the back, eh?

Posted by Matt Saler from Grand Rapids, MI on 01/12/09 at 09:43 PM ET

Now Ozzie and Ribeiro are even for going down like they’ve been shot after a stick gets up.

The difference is that Ribeiro should have been suspended for his chop.

That isn’t even the proper word to use - they wanted “regroup.”

Did the Wings just decide that things were going so well in the 1st that the 2nd wasn’t worth showing up for?  Good Christ, what a horrible period.

Ribeiro thought he saw a baggie of smack lying on the ice so he throw his gloves off and got his face down there quickly.

Maybe we could borrow one from another network. I’m pretty sure Jack Bauer is up to his ass in snipers.

Does anyone want some of this fricking snow?  We have gotten like 12 inches of snow in the last 24 hours and the “storm” isn’t even supposed to start until tomorrow morning.  I need the beach and a beer.
