Oh…Stooges backers made a late run, but Uncle Teddy was consistent throughout the afternoon and into the evening.
It’s a Live Blog bitches, and the game’s on Gary’s Closed Circuit NHL Network. So post a feed if you got it.

Jen can’t be having too much fun tonite.

No Tyler. They know they won the Cup. But this team seems to expect everyone else to bow at their feet.
Posted by Alzy from Innisfail, Alberta, Canada on 11/26/08 at 08:59 PM ET
Just in case no one has mentioned it…. it’s time to put Z, Dats and Hossa together for the 3rd.
Posted by calquake on 11/26/08 at 08:59 PM ET
So if we’re trailing by three, we should start getting th even-up calls going our way, right?
Right?

YEAH Andrew, and the sun will rise in the west tomorrow too!!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 11/26/08 at 09:02 PM ET
Man you guys are extra abrasive tonight. They just got back off the West Coast yesterday. Sure they’re capable of winning tonight but there is still something to say about those long arse trips having an effect.
Posted by Moocat on 11/26/08 at 09:02 PM ET
Be nice if Little Gary’s justice worked to our advantage for once Andrew.
But I don’t know, I’d feel dirty getting a win that way.

A whistle against the Habs—gee Andrew, maybe you were right

Jen can’t be having too much fun tonite.
I’m going to have to sit her down and have a talking to with her. If you check the records, broadcast, print, and blogs 
, the games I was at the Joe during the postseason were called some of the loudest crowds of the year. No coincidence… I have a big mouth and get the other big mouths rallying for the cause.
Jen, one of the few ladies on the blog (where’s Baroque??) is letting Habs fans out-cheer us. And the Douche Canoe pointing out the Habs chants just adds insult to injury.
At least the refs noticed our guys getting mugged in front of the net for once and called a PP.

Yuck—can’t even set up in the zone—- UGLY

Future Red Wing (if I have my way) Stamkos drops the gloves tonight. Save those hands for the dynasty Steven!

Okie, I think we can all get behind the idea that this is all her fault.
Thanks Jennifer. Thanks a lot.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 11/26/08 at 09:07 PM ET
The refs ain’t the reason for miserable play tonight. The Wings need a cranial-rectal inversion delivered by Uncle Mike between periods.

Spot-on Gabe—
Jen is the proverbial “whipping boy” for tonights debacle. No more games at the JLA for her. It is all her damn karma fault.

She will be the fan version of William Tell, drawing nothing but ire all year. Poor girl, but she should have been cheering louder, so she deserves it.

Gabe…on that whole sandwich thing…just stop…I am sending pizza.
No legs tonite….didn’t we go thru this whole “....it’s the first game after a west coast swing…” garbage last year??
Where’s The Hasek…....it’s time for some serious drinking.

Anyone else tried of the “measuring stick” lingo?

Then get back in the kitchen where you belong and start tossing that dough, Rumbear. Maybe then we’ll pot one or two.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/26/08 at 09:15 PM ET
Put the big 3 together and ride that sucker for the rest of the game.
- Bilros at HFboards
Brought it over from the other board to say… let’s ride the Big 3 and the Hasek all third period. Tenth round is on me.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 11/26/08 at 09:16 PM ET
And I’m going to stay glued to the TV everyone. It may be karma, I don’t know, but the Canadiens have scored every time I’ve stepped away and not been able to watch. Usually it’s the other way around.
Posted by Alzy from Innisfail, Alberta, Canada on 11/26/08 at 09:16 PM ET
Andrew my man!! Stay outta my kitchen!!
How does one celebrate Thanksgiving in Fortress Europa??
Posted by Rumbear from Top O da Hasek, sippin rum & catchin some rays on 11/26/08 at 09:17 PM ET
What is this?!?! I have a horribly stressful visit to the grocery and rush home to catch the end of the game and see this mess… If I didn’t have a race to run tomorrow morning I would be downing a bottle of wine to ease the pain.
Posted by Aimee from Austin on 11/26/08 at 09:21 PM ET
whoops…back to the BIG screen….I have the kids duct taped in their rooms!

How does one celebrate Thanksgiving in Fortress Europa??
By going to work, coming home and having turkey dogs and cranberry juice for dinner. I don’t really hang out with the American expat crowd, so don’t get invitations for Thanksgiving dinners abroad. Half the years I’m back home for Thanksgiving anyway—since it’s unknown here, my wife’s family doesn’t mind that we don’t spend Thanksgiving with them. Conversely, being Jewish, Christmas has never been a big deal for my family, so we usually spend that one with her family. Works well.
Let’s hope that shot’s broken Gorges’ ankle. I’m still angry about his cross-checking Kopy and Hossa getting the penalty—that’s what’s led to this mess.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/26/08 at 09:28 PM ET
And Gorges does it again to Kopy. Is that one being called?
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/26/08 at 09:31 PM ET
“He’ll shoot one, and no one in front”
I’m getting tired of hearing that
Posted by HockeyTownTodd on 11/26/08 at 09:32 PM ET
Maybe the third period meltdowns will work against the Habs tonight and we can pull off a win.
A three-goal deficit and a Wings periodical third-period collapses. Good god, I almost can’t even watch Real Time.

Without Homer to lead them, the crease-crashers aren’t taking their cues.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/26/08 at 09:34 PM ET
Montreal has melted down in the third as often as the Wings.
Posted by HockeyTownTodd on 11/26/08 at 09:36 PM ET
How come Price has had plenty of meltdowns this year, but against us he’s playing like Ken Dryden?
*#$%@& Habs goalies.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/26/08 at 09:38 PM ET

Because we’re playing like the 1977 Boston Bruins.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 11/26/08 at 09:41 PM ET
Damn. Real Time is showing a bunch of Habs blocking shots like friggin’ demons. One “Blocked Shot” after another.

Touche.
Pardon my French.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/26/08 at 09:45 PM ET
I smell shutout…
I smell a first round flameout. But I’m fairly reactionary.
When in trouble, when in doubt…run in circles, scream and shout.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 11/26/08 at 09:45 PM ET
MULE with an ABSOLUTE BEAUTY!!
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 11/26/08 at 09:46 PM ET
Mule. That was…jaw-dropping. How the hell are we gonna keep him?
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/26/08 at 09:46 PM ET
Nice one Mule!!
Posted by Aimee from Austin on 11/26/08 at 09:47 PM ET

Us or Montreal, Gabe? Either one seems a distinct possibility after this game.
No shutout, anyway.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/26/08 at 09:47 PM ET
Well, looks like the improvements they’ve made since the Pens game have completely regressed in one night. Hopefully, one good thing will come from this game—they’ll learn from the Habs how to hold a 3+ goal lead.
Posted by Nathan on 11/26/08 at 09:49 PM ET
Wow, at least we won’t get shutout.
But my God, pass the puck. It doesn’t really help to just stand there and let a Canadien hit you.
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 11/26/08 at 09:49 PM ET
When in trouble, when in doubt…run in circles, scream and shout.
Amen, brother.
No shutout. Sweet Baby Jesus.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 11/26/08 at 09:50 PM ET
Oh, Raffi…leaving Nick with the two-on-one to clean up after you. That won’t do for six million a year.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/26/08 at 09:53 PM ET
Jesus, Conk did all the hard work, but where the hell was our defense clearing the crease?
That was ugly.
