Paul here subbing for IwoCPO who emailed me earlier today, asking if I could post the live blog since he was about to lose web access.
So here I am, not dazzling you with my vanilla vocabulary but rather stating it is time to ride “The Mule”.
The Wings need a strong game from Franzen tonight and if so, everything else falls into place.
If not, someone unexpected will need to step up.
So enjoy this ‘late-nighter’ and you have my permission to take Friday off.
It’s a Live Blog bit****!

Though I’m guessing they get more of your grudging respect?
No.

Sam Gagner has a hat trick AND three assists.
+4 and only 4 SOG
turn him loose.

Yes, because they get more of the scorn. That’s why we call them “Little Brother”. We haven’t been inspired enough yet to put you guys on that level. But we’re watchin’ you!

What is the deal with Z? He doesn’t suck, but, he isn’t the same Z that I have been accustomed to either.

Nucks got some energy in the 3rd here. Push back.

How bad are Hank’s back problems?
Unsure but Flip will probably start to get some since he keeps carrying Z.

We don’t know but if it’s not his back then it might be between his ears.

Time for Kessler to go fight the building manager again…he was just hit REALLY hard by that ice…

Is Emma dressing instead?
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 02/03/12 at 03:00 AM ET
He was tripped but that is what happens when you are a douche.
Posted by SolidTG7 on 02/03/12 at 03:01 AM ET
Wow….8-4 Edmonton. Use up all those goals tonight.
Posted by Valek on 02/03/12 at 12:01 AM ET
My thoughts exactly.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Posted by Kate from Pa.-made in Detroit on 02/03/12 at 03:03 AM ET
Yeah, Kesler tripped there, but he probably didn’t need to go down flailing around like he was electrocuted.

Wow… sounds like Hawks are laying… naw, I can’t do it.
Posted by calquake on 02/03/12 at 03:03 AM ET
Weak fight, but at least Bert’s not taking shit.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 02/03/12 at 03:04 AM ET
What is with these Canucks and fighting?
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Posted by Kate from Pa.-made in Detroit on 02/03/12 at 03:04 AM ET
8 minutes into the 3rd, and no SOG for the wings
Posted by TheRealYooper from within sight of the edge of the Earth. on 02/03/12 at 03:05 AM ET
These Canucks are hitting the ice like there is a sniper in the stand.
Posted by SolidTG7 on 02/03/12 at 03:06 AM ET
Wings are dumping every loose puck into the offensive zone. Guys thats not really how we play the game. . . . .

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: wphoulihan@gmail.com
At least we both hate the Khawks. Though I’m guessing they get more of your grudging respect?
