Aloha. Here’s the wager with the PensBlog girls. If the Genitalia-less flightless birds win tonite, I’ll be writing the game recap for the geniuses who frequent the C-blog. Vice versa. When the Wings win? You’ll be reading the prose of Charlie and his sorority sisters here tomorrow.
It’s a live blog, bitches. Your even-keeled and objective commentary is welcome.

Icing on Pittsburgh and they just went to commercial. WTF?
Posted by DetroitHockey on 11/11/08 at 08:30 PM ET
It’s so much better when they forget they shouldn’t go to commercial and they show about 30 seconds of play without commentary. I think VS and NHL Center Ice should offer that up as part of their programming. Commentary free coverage.

My first game was at the old Olympia sometime around 1975.
Lucky. I’m too young to have been to the Olympia, but the stories my father tells…
My first game at the Joe was in 1989...man, were the tickets cheap back then. I remember how huge the main concourse looked. I spent ages staring up at the concrete buttresses. First time I took a plane out of Metro (when I was young my father used to drive us everywhere) I thought the same architect had designed the Smith terminal.

I did see the Fab 5 of the Celtics play at the Garden, three times.... back when.

you jest, but not a bad idea if they jacked up the volume on the ice and gave it a tv-ma rating

It’s good to be with the 19.
The A2Y 19...It’s everywhere you want to be.
DAAAATS!
(Nice avatar, BTW, Clemshady)

Oh....man. Datsyuk and Hossa. Unfriggingbelievable.

Sweetness!

Look at those long faces on the Pens bench. I heard a nutless flightless bird spine snap

Actually, I’d pay extra for that. It’d be just like being at the game but the beer is cheaper and there are no lines for the bathroom. Should I get nostalgic for the Joe pissers then I’ll just piss in my bathroom sink.

The wife just said “Who was that with the Hull move?” Yeah, stick in the air for about a week waiting for the puck, that’s Hull’s influence right there.
Posted by DetroitHockey on 11/11/08 at 08:35 PM ET
Anybody know who the new arena announcer is? Where’s Budd Lynch?
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/11/08 at 08:35 PM ET
Datsyuk had his stick in the air (no, not an Enzyte commercial) for about five second before that puck got to him.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 11/11/08 at 08:35 PM ET
SCORE BABY SCORE
Posted by monkey from Waiting for the lambs to stop screaming on 11/11/08 at 08:36 PM ET
That was only the second goal Datsyuk has EVER scored in the NHL with a slapshot.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 11/11/08 at 08:36 PM ET
hahaha if you got real nostalgic you could piss in the corner for two days before hand to get just the right smell
Posted by rwingscup19 from Dallas on 11/11/08 at 08:36 PM ET

Noticed that as well - by the time he got it I didn’t think he’d get that good of a shot off.
It helps having Homer in front casting shadows.

You may be onto something. Although, I’m pretty sure no one would ever come watch a game with me at the house ever again. Ha!
Posted by clemshady from Greenwood, SC on 11/11/08 at 08:38 PM ET
Don’t forget to sweat in there for about five days beforehand...gotta get the odor just right.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/11/08 at 08:38 PM ET
zetts is having a great game. i hope he gets rewarded for it.
Posted by rwingscup19 from Dallas on 11/11/08 at 08:38 PM ET
if Pav’s one times it on one knee, that’s Brett living vicariously
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/11/08 at 08:39 PM ET
Where’s Budd Lynch?
Might have had other things to do today, he’s a WWI vet if I remember right????
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/11/08 at 08:40 PM ET
i remember how great it was to go to the joe as a kid and piss in that trough, felt like you were breaking the rules. like pissing outside.
Posted by rwingscup19 from Dallas on 11/11/08 at 08:40 PM ET
Hully doesn’t need to live vicariously through anyone-- he’s having the time of his life alternately stuffing and running off his mouth down in Dallas. What a character.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 11/11/08 at 08:40 PM ET
the mullet totally banged her. or at least sexually harrassed the crap out of her

Yes you’re right he is… it’s just that this isn’t the first time lately that I’ve heard the new announcer but I hadn’t heard anything about him retiring or anything.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/11/08 at 08:42 PM ET
Sorry, Chief, for sullying the thread into comments about the wonderful aroma of the Joe’s pissers. Y’all can’t take me anywhere, evidently.
Posted by clemshady from Greenwood, SC on 11/11/08 at 08:42 PM ET
Malkin after two: 3 giveaways. 0 shots. I’m just sayin’.

Holy Shit Brian Engblom got a haircut. Still looks horrible, but an improvement nonetheless.
Posted by monkey from Waiting for the lambs to stop screaming on 11/11/08 at 08:43 PM ET
Shady, no offense taken. Urine is an aroma of happiness.

He’s tired. It’s been a long season.

didn’t know that. i can’t even imagine everything that guy has seen in his life. i hope by the time i’m done i can look back and think i’ve lived as well as budd

I guess you could say he’s into playoff form.
Posted by clemshady from Greenwood, SC on 11/11/08 at 08:45 PM ET
Oh, now you’re gonna make the Pensblog kiddies foam at the mouth.

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
