Versus went to black on our tv. And we can’t it on any of the other channels right now.

Effing great… now the Wings are self-destructing. It’s going to be a loooooong night someone steps up and provides leadership.

This is BULLSH*T.

Thus concluding the worst period of playoff hockey I’ve seen in, well, ever.

I am in the fetal position, rocking back and forth, hoping it’s just a dream…

Good to know the Wings really changed a lot from Game 3. What a joke.
Posted by Jeremy on 04/16/08 at 08:55 PM ET
Uncle Mike had better be in the locker room figuring out a way to make this team pull their heads out

Oh yea, a double minor for being a Red Wing. Called by the Freddie Mercury of refs. He has always been called that in my house. Only because he looks just like him. Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Larry looks and talks like he’s already downed half a bottle of Beam

To say the least… this is not championship hockey we are seeing so far… unless of course you’re talking about the Preds. Kudos to them but we still have two full periods of hockey left. Show us what you’re made of Wings. IMPOSE YOUR WILL! MAKE US PROUD! GO WINGS!!!
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 04/16/08 at 08:59 PM ET
I’m thinking I’ll probably keep drinking.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 04/16/08 at 09:03 PM ET
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the Wings be timid, sloppy and lazy all in one game. Quite frankly, it’s embarassing to watch this.
Bubba, on the other hand, has combined desperation and toughness into a game plan. Who woulda thunk it?

OK this reminded me of some of our no-luck moments during the last month of the regular season.
The Stress Train is rolling now, and I’m popping antacids like candy. I do remain positive, as we have talent and desire. Our coaches, veterans, and grinders will turn this around.
LET’S GO RED WINGS!

I am victory. I am defeat. I am victory. I am defeat. I am victory. I am defeat.
SHUT THE F-BOMB UP, HAL9000!!

Right on Dub.
We lose this and I see Abbadabadoo is in like edible underwaear
Posted by Osrt on 04/16/08 at 09:07 PM ET
Wow, I miss the first period and this how I’m rewarded, by another 2 quick goals? Will someone please fly in Leyland to talk to this team?
Posted by Hap from Grand Rapids, MI on 04/16/08 at 09:07 PM ET
How the HELL did the Wings outshoot them in the first?
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 04/16/08 at 09:09 PM ET
The next two periods is where Uncle Mike needs to show me he is the right guy. In game adjustments need to be made. So show me Uncle MIke, help me dispel those rumors critics keep bringing up about your coaching. About you being stubborn and not able/willing to change tactics. Please help me stop the voices…
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 04/16/08 at 09:09 PM ET
Wow, I never realized just how awful and frickin shrill that Tootoo wistle is. Dont hear it on the radio and didn’t hear it on NBC over the weekend. Its loud and clear on CBC.
Isnt that something like playing music during the game?
And howabout we complete a pass once or twice?
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 04/16/08 at 09:15 PM ET
they took a page out of the 2005 Edmonton playbook. Keep the wings on the parameter.
Posted by Tuba Guy from Royal Oak, MI on 04/16/08 at 09:15 PM ET
I’ve been on the phone fighting with Versus and now Directv. I can’t believe that they have us blacked out since we’re no where near either market right now.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 04/16/08 at 09:16 PM ET
I can’t believe what mouthbreathing morons they have on Customer Service at Vs and Directv.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 04/16/08 at 09:19 PM ET
Might be a nifty time to have a successful power play.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 04/16/08 at 09:19 PM ET
Coincidence? Wings go on PP, my v-word is “96now”
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 04/16/08 at 09:19 PM ET
As Elvis would say...."It’s now or Never...”.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 04/16/08 at 09:19 PM ET
Wow, waited, waited, waited, score.
Posted by Nate A from Dark side of the moon on 04/16/08 at 09:21 PM ET

Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 04/16/08 at 09:21 PM ET

Posted by Osrt on 04/16/08 at 09:21 PM ET
Thank you Elvis… and you too Dats.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 04/16/08 at 09:21 PM ET
You have got to be MF kidding me!
Posted by Matt from Chicago on 04/16/08 at 09:21 PM ET
Jennifer: just sent you an email with a possible solution.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 04/16/08 at 09:21 PM ET

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
