Uncle Mike’s Not Stressed. Are You?

What, him, worry?
“I’m not concerned one bit, as long as Ozzie just gives himself a break, goes home and enjoys his family and gets on with it,’’ Babcock said. “He’s a real good goalie, knows how to play; and by his numbers, he knows how to win.
“And yet, to me, he’s being way too hard on himself, letting one goal affect his mindset.’‘
Uh huh. Strong possibility my plane hasn’t landed by the time you read this. I’ll try to catch up sometime in the third period.
It’s a Live Blog bitches.

I agree with Uncle Mike. As far as stress goes, it is an integral part of being a Wings fan. No matter who is in goal. Bitches.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Good evening ladies, gentlemen, and the 19.
Nice… 
Good evening, bitches.

Being a goaltender means having serious short short term memory. I’d rather see Ozzy be calm after a sucky game and say ” hey we will get better ” then see him go psycho Eddie on us. I think Babs is trying to say this and keep the pressure off him and his team but at the same time expect them to shore up their game as a team. they will, might not be as soon as we want though. lol
If your not out shopping, you’re watching the Wings, stress is everywhere. lol

Evening, bitches.
Tim Tebow is on my screen again. Maybe he could lend his sublime genius to the Wings goal? Even if he thinks it’s spelled ‘hahkie,’ there’s a fifty-fifty shot he can save better than what we’ve got.
Dammit.

Evening bitches.
Hudler and VooX checking in.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 12/06/08 at 07:11 PM ET
Ok… this is not going to be good. Watching hockey while suffering from laryngitis is not a good combination.
So, I’ll scream it here…. Go Huds!!!
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 12/06/08 at 07:11 PM ET
Did Fil get the credit for the goal? I thought Ken and Mic said Hudler got it.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 12/06/08 at 07:12 PM ET
looks like fil has it with some good traffic work from the little one Huds.
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 12/06/08 at 07:14 PM ET
Fil and Huds… Eurotwins v2.0
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 12/06/08 at 07:14 PM ET
And I’m STILL WATCHING the goddamn Gators.
Somebody will pay…
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 12/06/08 at 07:14 PM ET
Like I said… 2-0 Eurotwins 2.0
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 12/06/08 at 07:15 PM ET
Wow, now it Hud’s for sure ; lol SWEET!
Third line looks good tus far!
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 12/06/08 at 07:15 PM ET
WHOOO HOOO!!! Go Huddy!
The Oooompa Looompa strikes again.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 12/06/08 at 07:15 PM ET
Been readin’ not posting… someone the other night mentioned that center ice didn’t do the pregame. Not sure what provider they were getting the feed thru, but I’m pretty sure if you have the NHL Network you get all the FSN channels (until they air something that falls under some other premium package)..I never watch the (Wings) games on the center ice channels…always tune into 663 on DTV, which is FSN Detroit.
Two.
Nice.
Lets hold it.

Just getting home from huntin’ again… freezin freaking cold but nice to come home and see Hulder bury a gift from Fil from Huet.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/06/08 at 07:17 PM ET
Gee if we score 3 or 4 more we have a chance to win by the time the 3rd period ends…. Just sayin’.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/06/08 at 07:18 PM ET
Sammy doesn’t always take a hit to make the play, one thing that irrates me the most!
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 12/06/08 at 07:19 PM ET

I was just thinking the same thing.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 12/06/08 at 07:19 PM ET
Oh for god sakes, I just watched players waiting on a review of a play, now they reset the clock…ugh. Forget the Stress Train, I’m on the Anger Train. Whole different set of tracks. This may make me re-think my Florida vacation plans…
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 12/06/08 at 07:19 PM ET
Zettererg and Datsyuk’s lines need to score more…less cutesey plays please
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 12/06/08 at 07:21 PM ET
I missed the Murphy interview… is he slurring yet?
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 12/06/08 at 07:22 PM ET
ohhh. bad bound for conk. could have been costly

Dude, I pitch a bitch when I have to go to FLA for work on someone elses dime… I’ll never part with a penny of my coin to go there.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/06/08 at 07:23 PM ET
VooX…not yet. Give him a few more shots…I think he takes one for every wings shot.
Ewww…..
Posted by eyesris from Asheville, NC on 12/06/08 at 07:23 PM ET
Ah crap…. I knew this would happen.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 12/06/08 at 07:23 PM ET
Wow… sick goal by the Hawks that makes me vomit a little in my mouth as they gave us a taste of our own medicine.
Posted by VooX from Behind the Bar in the Hasek Club Car on 12/06/08 at 07:24 PM ET
So uh…how’s the game? I may have to catch the entire first period on rerun at this point.
God, I hate the SEC. I mean, why even have universities south of the Mason-Dixon line? That’s like opening a steakhouse in India.
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 12/06/08 at 07:25 PM ET
Pavel and Hank are 8 games each without a goal… how about a reunion for a period or 2 Uncle Mike? Please.
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 12/06/08 at 07:25 PM ET

Need at least five more for that.

wings are still collapsing on top of their own net. very passive on defense
Posted by wingsfanindenver on 12/06/08 at 07:26 PM ET
Key to the game… Premium scoring. Screw the secondary scoring. We need our top people to get it in the twine. If Z keeps this up…. I will curl up and cry. Not to say that I don’t like secondary scoring, but there is a reason its called secondary.
I think the Hawks goal is on the D, not Conk.
Posted by eyesris from Asheville, NC on 12/06/08 at 07:27 PM ET
As much as it pains me that was a slick pass from kane and a nice goal from Sharpe.
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 12/06/08 at 07:27 PM ET
Conks ate his Wheaties, big strong save!
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 12/06/08 at 07:28 PM ET
Well, I’m trying to watch online. Some solution. Crappy DSL bandwidth I hate you…
Okay—they won, I don’t need to see Tebow celebrating in his wholesome Christian way. Game on, please…
So who had the second Wings goal?
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor from Fortress Europe on 12/06/08 at 07:28 PM ET
One terrible hooking call, a goal, and the Wings have fallen apart. Throwing the puck to random locations in our zone, not throwing the puck anywhere when we get into their zone. So…bad…
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 12/06/08 at 07:28 PM ET
2-1 Holy Jumpin…I have been hanging Christmas Lites thinking it was a 4:30 start.

Z keeps this up…. I will curl up and cry.
Didn’t Z have a slump about this time last year too? And Pav is a little streaky as well, but he doesn’t usually go too long before he buries another.
Posted by wingsfanindenver on 12/06/08 at 07:29 PM ET

big conk block
Right on both counts, Denver. Don’t forget the post that helped out earlier.
I’ve noticed we’ve been collapsing into the slot a lot these days as well.. It has been mentioned by others here hat the lack of confidence in our goaltending might be causing it.
