Every One Of You Needs To Skip This Live Blog, Because The “Streak” Ends Tonite

Don’t get all sad on me now. It had to end some time. You didn’t really expect the Wings to win every remaining home game on their schedule, did you? That’s just crazy talk. And there isn’t a single redolent one of you who doesn’t know precisely what I’m talking about. This thing ends tonite.
The Blue Jackets are the worst team in the league with their 13-28-5 (31 points) record…They have the worst goal differential in the league (minus-41), allowing 152 goals while scoring 110. …The lone bright spot, as usual, is RW Rick Nash (16 goals, 16 assists).
Go on Rick. Scoring when it matters the least. Attababy.
So count it. Nash will be a monster and will register more shots shorthanded than the Wings will on the power play.
Steve Mason will be incredible and we’ll remember the days we wished he was our baby boy instead of Tiberius. We’ll chuckle at that, though, because there isn’t a goalie in hockey I’d trade for F’ing Howard now or ever, ever.
The Wings will outshoot the BJs by a factor of 3-1 and will still lose by two goals.
Someone will explain to me the whole pencil joke from the other night and I still won’t understand it.
The Wings will lose this game because “trap” doesn’t even define it. It’s a pit of quicksand mixed with baby shit, Ten High whiskey, vomitus and baby oil sweated off Gary Bettman’s back.
So yes, we’ll live blog it. And we’ll be bitches while we do. It’s just important that reality rule the evening. Because there is no chance in holy hell we’re winning this thing.
There. That do the trick?

Another PP successfully completed with no goal scored. That is the point, right?

Whenever the other team takes a penalty, Red Wings get a play.

Every time we get a power play I just imagine the team thinking “Can we just….you know….not?”

homer with the hold. that’s 2 penalties on homer so far this game.

Homer again, pretty weak since they haven’t managed to catch the BJs doing that and I know I’ve seen them do it a few times.
Posted by SolidTG7 on 01/21/12 at 11:10 PM ET
As always, 2 minutes for nothing.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Then again its not like the Wings would do anything with the resulting PP so I don’t know why I’m complaining.
Posted by SolidTG7 on 01/21/12 at 11:12 PM ET
And there’s the generous Wings PP again.
Fuch…

So that is what a power play goal looks like. Damn shame the BJ’s had to show us.

I’m signing out for tonight gentlemen. That last goal dampening my spirits but did not put out my burning desire for an overwhelming red wings slaughter fest. Good luck and good night.
Posted by Yzersyuk on 01/21/12 at 11:16 PM ET
Well, with 6 skaters on 4 we weren’t any better than a regular PP.

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.

I know there is still time left but I’m already gonna say: crappy power play…. again.
