And Then There Was One…Live Blog Our Last Best Chance For A Title

Looking back to October we had two teams with legitimate title hopes (the Wings, of course, and the Tigers), another giving us plenty of reason to be optimistic and one more that I was actually hoping would stay locked out forever.
Down went the Tigers. Drew Brees and a Detroit secondary with the hands of William Tell finished off the Lions today. The Pistons are back and none of you care, which makes you good Americans.
So, as it should be, that leaves the Wings.
And tonite’s matchup is relevant because one way or another it’s gonna happen again in May. Before the midget shrew hands over the Twelfth at the Joe in front of 20K plus 19 and the sad Pens, the manger baby’s Wings will have to get by baby brother. And that’s gonna be some series, sister.
So the preview part two continues this evening and for some reason Jim Fuching Howard played last night, pushing the Conk into a tight spot tonite.
And you can take that in any direction you want.
It’s a Live Blog, bitches.

Sacrilegious…hearing Ted blaring in Chicago’s barn. Guess it’s better than hearing Chelsea Dagger.

I know some of you don’t like Doc on play by play, but he is Michigan with a real knowledge of the history of the game.
Sadly, one can only be so good when saddled with dopes like olczyk,mcguire,milbury…..

I don’t know about anyone else but Clear’s and Kronner’s passing lately has been giving me chills. Hopefully they got a bit of work on their clearing passes during today’s morning skate.

Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

And the Wings on the PK.

Why is this guy still in the lineup? Forget the money. Kenny Holland, Mike Babcock, or whoever needs sit his ass down and let’s see how Kindl/Commodore look…

The PK of Death does what it does best!! 0-1
Posted by WestWing from Portland, Oregon on 01/08/12 at 10:46 PM ET
Certainly could’ve used Conner against the Cawks.
Posted by SYF from the Flood on 01/08/12 at 10:46 PM ET
and a goal scored on an e52 penalty. everybody drink two more.

Like 8yr olds playing soccer, everyone chasing the puck again.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 01/08/12 at 10:47 PM ET
This is NOT the way to get Jimmah in the game.
Posted by SoDakWIngNut from Rapid City, SD on 01/08/12 at 10:47 PM ET
Conk sucker.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Posted by Kate from Pa.-made in Detroit on 01/08/12 at 10:47 PM ET
Conklin is just terrible. Wings need to do something because every game he plays, we’re gonna lose.

OK, 2-zip. One more for the Cawks, and the Wings will be ready to play.

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.
