Abstinence Is The Only Cure

We've endured losing streaks before. Usually in February, like this one. Only those were different because our midget commissioner hadn't ordered a five-month snow day.
This one is horribler, a word I rarely use but it's a real word because I checked. It's horribler because if there's one thing we learned from The Natural, it's that losing is a disease as contagious as syphilis. I don't want to catch sypilis and I've taken certain steps over the course of my life to ensure I haven't. But if losing is contagious like that disease does that mean only the players themselves will catch it or the fans too? I do not want syphilis.
Please win. I'm allergic to penicillin and I really dislike Nashville.
It's a Live Blog bitches. We're all in serious trouble.

What.. The. Fuch. Is. Cleary. Doing?
If he doesn’t know, why would we?

“Ellis couldn’t hold it in.”
Reminds me of the post Prom party with my date, my second cousin.

Rhetorical? Repetitive? Redundant?

Jimmy has already stopped a couple of point blank chances, if we lose he will crucified, however.

The “relative humidity” is always high that time of year.

Pavel and I would take Franzen or Bertuzzi in place of Cleary in a heartbeat.

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.
