And there’s even a Woodward Avenue reference in that one. A mini-slump has sent us back to our roots.
It’s a Seger-driven Live Blog bitches. Complete domination of the Central begins this evening.

On tape delay blog again. Hopefully the dynasty can get more scoring go their way this game.
Charlie Buckets returns and I’ve had this ditty in my head all day:
“I can see Cleary now, the pain is gone.”

CBJ: worst PP in the league. Barely over ten percent.
Not a good sign for us.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 11/28/08 at 07:46 PM ET
not even a shot for the BJs on that one, but i’m wondering if we can ever put one in shorthanded, still none

Come on Kopecky, score...take advantage of this opportunity…
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 11/28/08 at 07:48 PM ET
Man did Lils get destroyed there
Posted by metaltje from philly via gun rue on 11/28/08 at 07:51 PM ET
Still making bad decisions with the puck. Filppula should’ve shot, then Samuelsson of all people decides to pass even though he had a clear line of sight to the net.
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 11/28/08 at 07:56 PM ET
Mickey’s right - that was an idiot move by the linesman. What was he thinking?
Posted by Matt Saler from Grand Rapids, MI on 11/28/08 at 08:08 PM ET
Great shot Hank!
Posted by Aimee from Austin on 11/28/08 at 08:10 PM ET
Nice, Z. I was starting to worry. Franzen looked sharp keeping Nash from a full-on breakaway at one end and then getting out of the way of the shot after laying a good screen.
Posted by metaltje from philly via gun rue on 11/28/08 at 08:11 PM ET
Great shift from Cleary and Fil, and even Maltby.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 11/28/08 at 08:12 PM ET
Whoa...Zetterberg ran over that dude at the end...nice. Cleary is playing well too...these refs have some problems though.
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 11/28/08 at 08:16 PM ET
hope we kill this penalty and get our act together.
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 08:24 PM ET
Uh...why are Lebda, Samuelsson and Datsyuk leading in 3 stars voting?
Posted by Tyler from Arizona on 11/28/08 at 08:29 PM ET
It might be all the Yuengling, but I’m telling you the Bernsteins look shady.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 11/28/08 at 08:29 PM ET
my belly hurts, it’s those darn dark chocolate cherries i bought by mistake. supposed to get milk chocolate.
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 08:30 PM ET
Nice save my Ozzie!!! Killed the penalty!
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 08:35 PM ET
looks like meech is wearing bigger shoulder pads.
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 08:37 PM ET
this is a boring game. Wings on a pp, juice things up I hope!
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 08:42 PM ET
I’m sure I’m just being greedy but I wanted a penalty shot for that.
Posted by DetroitHockey on 11/28/08 at 08:42 PM ET
WTF, Lebda was leading at first intermission as player of the game 44%?
Let’s pick one up on this PP. “One stubborn mule.”
Posted by RWBill from jabbing a six inch sewing needle into my eye. on 11/28/08 at 08:43 PM ET
my mind went to a penalty shot too!
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 08:44 PM ET
Ugly scrum goal, we’ll take it, like the Habs goals against us the other nite.
Posted by RWBill from jabbing a six inch sewing needle into my eye. on 11/28/08 at 08:45 PM ET
Oompa Loompa. 5 G his last six games.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 11/28/08 at 08:45 PM ET
Lilja...WTF. I’m confused. I like the way he’s playing this year.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 11/28/08 at 08:48 PM ET
I am glad i didn’t cut Hudler from my fantasy team.
Yeah lilja is a mystery, not bad though.
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 08:50 PM ET
Lilja = Enigma, Jr. ??
Posted by RWBill from jabbing a six inch sewing needle into my eye. on 11/28/08 at 08:52 PM ET
Argh Hossa!
Posted by Aimee from Austin on 11/28/08 at 08:56 PM ET
Well that just stinks!! 2-2, piss ants!
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 09:02 PM ET
Had a feeling those two were gonna connect tonite.
Posted by IwoCPO from Washington, DC on 11/28/08 at 09:04 PM ET
You bad boy, HOSSA 3-2 helper from dats sweet!
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 09:04 PM ET
Freaking Datsyuk, fade-away, backhanded pass leading a rushing Hossa right to his wheelhouse.
What a freak stick. I’m glad he’s our freak.
Posted by RWBill from jabbing a six inch sewing needle into my eye. on 11/28/08 at 09:07 PM ET
Would you let one bad eye keep you away from a BJ?
Posted by Nate A from metro Detroit on 11/26/08 at 05:26 PM ET
As long as the good eye was seeing this

I could really go for an Arby’s roast beef and some cheddar cheese rings.
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 09:21 PM ET
Goal from center ice? Vintage Osgood.
Posted by metaltje from philly via gun rue on 11/28/08 at 09:25 PM ET
Man skipped up
Posted by RWBill from jabbing a six inch sewing needle into my eye. on 11/28/08 at 09:25 PM ET
Oh for the love.....
Posted by Aimee from Austin on 11/28/08 at 09:25 PM ET
Please tell me that didn’t happen. Shades of jamie langenbrunner from playoffs years ago!
Posted by hankyspanky40 from Michigan on 11/28/08 at 09:25 PM ET
On further review he just gaffed. Ozzie’s working on a .750 save pct tonight.
Posted by RWBill from jabbing a six inch sewing needle into my eye. on 11/28/08 at 09:28 PM ET

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
