Our Girl Kara: Are The Wings/Bubba Really That Good?

You know, the woman just irritates me. She said she’d be boycotting the NHL earlier this year and I looked forward to her absence. But she keeps on writing and it just makes me sad. She was offended, shocked, dismayed by the violence. She lit the torches.
If the hit on Williams and the many others we’ve seen this season was part of the game—as old-school apologists suggest—I want no part of this game.
The violence never stopped Kara. The hits kept on coming as they have for fifty years. And we thought we’d seen the end of you. But, alas, no.
Be careful of those predictions declaring Detroit and Nashville powers to reckon with come playoff time (predictions the Sporting News makes in this week’s magazine), because what might happen when they meet up with those tough teams from the Pacific Division like Anaheim and San Jose and Dallas, which beat each other up and stole points back and forth all season.
Yes. We should be careful. Last year should have given us reason to worry, and Kara should be the provider of logic. But, see, this year’s a little different.
How have the Wings done against the oh-so-tough Pacific? Well, we know the team We Don’t Speak Of has treated us poorly, but what of the Anaheims and Dallas’ she references?
2-2 against the Ducks. Not bad, considering they led the league in points for most of the season.
Dallas? 3-0-1, and the 1 was a game the Wings blew and everyone knows it.
We know what we don’t want: a first-rounder against San Jose. But we also know what we can handle: Dallas, and a late-round match-up with either the Ducks or Sharks.
Pretty easy prey there Kara, especially considering you promised us you’d go away unless everyone conformed to your schoolgirl sensitivities.

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.
