We’re going early and I have my reasons.
With a win tonite, the Wings head home with 6/10. Still…the most depressing, disgusting, hazardous-to-your-pets road trip any of us can remember.
Noted.
Nobody cares what the rival bloggers are saying, or the MSM. Nothing would bring more joy to more people than a disastrous Detroit season.
But the bandwagon is getting light and the time is coming. You’re either in or you’re out. There’s a difference between being a passionate fan who takes losses personally, and being a “Wing fan” who seems to literally enjoy the struggles of the past month to confirm your own agenda. Read that again if you have to. Blasting the Wings for poor play is one thing and it’s expected. Reveling in it behind the facade of being a “real fan” is bullshit.
Nobody’s being banned from this site. That talk is tiresome. But when the Wings turn this around, we’ll see who climbs back aboard. When it’s no longer easy to pretend you know more than Mike Babcock, we’ll take a look back to October and see who stuck and who fled.
These Wings have given us a lot of amazing memories for much more than a decade. They deserve the benefit of the doubt and a lot of frigging rope.
Those who stay will be rewarded. I know this. Do not give up on this team.
It’s a Live Blog bitches and if anyone’s got a feed? I’d appreciate it. iwocpo at gmail dot com.

All that red in the stands….
Trying to find a Wing fan is like playing ‘where’s Waldo’.

We held them to one shot on the PP.
Quote of the night from Ken, “Considering Vancouver and Edmonton a much better start tonight.”
Nice save Ozzie. Thank goodness Zet came back for that one.

Where the F is section 300?

Expect Ozzie to play good (great) ‘cause he is in front of family - I think his dad is in the stands (plus several others, I would think).

It’s where Alzy is. Pay attention.

Can you imagine if Nik Jr. were 6’3”, 209 instead of Staffan? Martin Havlat would be dead now.

Doesn’t that mean we’re supposed to troll their blogs? They seem to do the same to us.

Jeebus is Drapes losing his sight in his old age.

Good God. Next time, we should all chip in and buy Alzy a better seat.
Posted by Bella on 10/31/09 at 10:26 PM ET
From the previuos post:
__________________________________________________________
I will be in attendance at the Saddledome, trying to improve my 0-2-1 record when seeing the Wings live thus far. So yes, I’ll be the official game-wrecker if Jobu can’t fix my voodoo when it comes to seeing the Wings live.
I’m salivating at the thought of what Draper, Taz and Eaves are going to do together.

__________________________________________________________
Give me a treat tonight Red Wings, end this road trip on a high note so I can pick up my first W seeing you live. If they happen to pan up high to a drunken bastard in the 300 section, wearing a red Datsyuk jersey, that’s me.
LET’S GO RED WINGS(exclamation point)

Tuning in late and you want positive…..I got yur positive. Ten minutes in and we are still tied….we got that going for us.
Let’s Go Red Wings !!!!! (5, count em)

Good pressure by Z’s shift. A little more of that, please.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 10/31/09 at 10:31 PM ET
Z looks “on” tonight. He’s flying on both ends of the ice.

Rosby and Ovechkin ask, “The ice has two ends?”

Sigh this ad says “There’s nothing like watching Detroit hockey in high definition.” Yes, I wish I could thank you Center Ice.
