The Feeling I Get When I Look To The West? Nausea. Let’s Wrap This MF’er Up With A Live Blog

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.

Homer, late man, not all that bad being the slowest on that line.
Posted by HockeyTownTodd on 10/31/09 at 11:33 PM ET
And who did that start with? Dat’s who.

A beautiful take away by Dats led to that goal.

What’s with the Chipmunk scoring further than 6 feet away?
Posted by mrfluffy from Long Beach on 10/31/09 at 11:34 PM ET
This game had the feeling that once the first one was scored, that they would start coming like butter. Let’s see one more Wing goal before the intermission.

Homer’s scoring 70 this year. You heard it here first.

Goals, or on an IQ test?

Gator needs to bulk up, he’s getting tossed around like a freshman at the varsity team tryouts.

Yikes, those last few seconds couldn’t go fast enough….
Posted by hockeychic from Denver, CO on 10/31/09 at 11:38 PM ET
Who needs Hossa. We have Homer. Bitches.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

AHHHHH…now I remember this Osgood of which you speak…nice of him to show up this evening.
Posted by The Hurricane on 10/31/09 at 11:38 PM ET
So was Meech paired with Stu at the end of the period, or was Babs going with 5 D?
Posted by Bella on 10/31/09 at 11:40 PM ET
Fear the Chipmunk bitches.
Don’t fear the reaper, but an Angry Chipmunk has God trembling.

CBC did an amazing job of isolating Pav on that goal. He came straight off the bench to strip the puck and setup up Homer’s goal. He also knew exactly how far Homer’s shot could go before falling harmlessly to the ground.

I think it was just a broken player change, should have been intererence on that icing call.

Everyone showed up. Z and Dats especially.
Honourable mention to Cleary and Bertuzzi.
And I <3 Helm. He has much Essence.

I’m still laughing.
Posted by HockeyTownTodd on 10/31/09 at 11:47 PM ET
Everyone showed up.
Shut your whore mouth. Kindly, that is.
Posted by mrfluffy from Long Beach on 10/31/09 at 11:48 PM ET
Hossa…is he playing yet?

Shut your whore mouth. Kindly, that is.
I know. Honestly I could handle losses with efforts like tonight.
It’s the losses from efforts like we’ve seen recently that have the local authorities wondering where all the neighbourhood pets are going.

Anyone see the Wisniewski hit on Doan? Serious head-hunting elbow left Doan seeing almost KTFO.

Classic…......and that ladies and gentleman is precisely why he is the man behind the bar. Voox, he’s been here all week.

Ahhh yes…a Bernstein commercial. A Halloween tradition. CREEEEEPY.
Posted by The Hurricane on 10/31/09 at 11:53 PM ET
Hola Gang, sorry I’m late to the party, family Halloween duties.
Read the LB, guess the “D” has showed up??

I miss The Mick.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Posted by Kate from Pa. on 11/01/09 at 12:00 AM ET
Thanks for the correction, Kate. I said Mick above; I meant Ken.
Ken. Don’t say ‘Helm nearly pulls a groin trying to stay on sides’.
fixed

CBC said Doan’s head slammed the ice very hard.

Complete with an appearance by Melvin the Mop Boy.

Except for Meech. Hell, 5 out of 6 ain’t bad.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 10/31/09 at 11:55 PM ET

He was so wobbly, he really should not have returned to play, let alone fight Wisniewski later in the game. Much balls, little brains.

Healthy scratch. Uncle Mike says he need a time out. Oh wait a minute.

He has looked better than Ericsson so far….
Bet he feels better, too.

Holy crap, Bert checked someone off the puck

This may be the first time that we can say “Skate to the throat.”
Cut the jug bitches.
Posted by WingsFanInBeanLand from Lidstrom's head telling him 1 more year on 10/31/09 at 11:59 PM ET
Why did they give Borque so much space? Sheesh.
Posted by ITDeuce from The Land of Ice and Snow on 11/01/09 at 12:00 AM ET
Gator—nice wheels, good hit.
And he didn’t fall down.
Posted by WingsFanInBeanLand from Lidstrom's head telling him 1 more year on 11/01/09 at 12:00 AM ET
Helm don’t dangle right in front of your own goal. Just don’t.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 11/01/09 at 12:00 AM ET
Elbows starting to fly
