Go back with me, won’t you? Back, back, back to October when we so redolently pointed out the fact that the Wings were being scheduled nothing but weekend games in order to pad owners’ wallets early. We mentioned it here and next thing you know the trolls came out and said mean things.
“Little Gary’s letting “us” play hockey again”
Man is that self-indulgent and whiny.
Is Bettman the scheduler? Is a 5 game break in October really a huge blow? I believe a comment section is there to keep a writer a bit honest.

Actually, the comment section is there to..well, I’m not sure but I just know that I dig it and always have. My response was brilliant and long-winded.
He’s the commissioner. Therefore he’s the scheduler, disciplinarian, overseer of transactions, janitor. Every bit of it. It’s all his responsibility. It’s called leadership and it’s why he “earns” those 7million every year.
Two five-day breaks. Not just one. Two, in the first three weeks of the season. No big deal now but wait until Jan and Feb when we have all those games crammed together and the injuries start piling up.

Now, to present day. Luckily our injury situation is better than it has been in years. But tonite’s a prime example of why that could change quickly. Last night in Hockeytown, tonite in Dallas where Gary wanted to build from the South up. Detroit, Dallas all in 48 hours…when the Wings stewed and sat over the course of two five-day breaks in the first three weeks of the season.
Nice schedule, Gary. Nice league, toad.
Live Blog it, bitches and hope for health.
12 in ‘12, baby Jesus willing.

Was Homer just staring right at the camera?
Nope. Staring at you.

Cleveland had SuperHost on channel 43 on Sat afternoons. He ran three stooges, godzilla movies, ultraman and Marx bros. It was awesome.

And let’s not forget Milkey’s Party Time, where if you’re team won you got to reach your hand in a glass bowl of loose change.

Geebus…why does this guy make the Wings look less than average?

Flip not quite as smooth as Pavel, but just as dogged these days.

White’s arms too sore to shoot the puck.

Zata’s line with some great pressure. No finish.

Wings finally find their game - with 3 minutes left to go.

redxblack, that’s exactly who I was remembering. Channel 43 plays favorites!

We had The Ghoul as well (followed by the mad ghoul and preceeded by Ghoulardi)

Just how in the fuch do you milk a 5 goal game?
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Good lord, Conk nearly lost it in the final seconds.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 01/18/12 at 02:00 AM ET
Given the fact that it’s a road game and the fact that we should be first in the conference, I’ll take the fuching consolation point.

Murph: Its a game of breaks.
In other news: Overtime Bitches.

I remember the morning programs getting shuffled and Woodrow Woodsman getting the prime before school slot. He had a talking owl.
Hated that show.
I think that’s when I started drinking.

You can count the number of Jimmy’s softies on one hand. For Conk’s, not so much.

My younger brother loved that stupid show. That is when Tim became Richard. Couldn’t call him a Dick in front of Mom. He has been called Richard ever since. He is gonna be 50 this July.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Penalty Shot! I demand it bitch!

17.6 seconds left and the Wings get a PP.
Finish it, Wings.

Penalty shot!

Should have been a penalty shot. The Dallas feed are saying it wasn’t a penalty/bad call.
Posted by redxblack from Akron Ohio on 01/18/12 at 02:10 AM ET
And the OT ends on a pass, not a shot. How fuching typical of this team afraid to shoot the fuching puck!
