The Wings are facing off against the Cawks tonight, and, it's always a huge deal when these two teams meet. Classic rivalries are always the most fun to watch. These teams are pretty evenly matched so it's anybody's game, but, it always so satisfying to beat this team.
D-Boss is showing just why he's the Captain. He's been on a mission of late, playing extremely well with such determination and heart. Here's hoping he can bring this team together, and, tonight bring one home for all Wings fans to enjoy.

Hi Kate, Cal and Bigfrog,
Just dropping in to say hello and LETS GO REDWINGS!!!
When I think of Blackhogs, I think of Eddie Balfour, Michelle Goulet, Stan the man Makita….
and we always kicked their asses! Well, for the most part.
I will drop in during the game for Cal’s comedy relief.
Be well and have fun!
GO WINGS!

Remember when Bryan Watson would ‘shadow’ Bobby Hull and drive him nuts.

Evenin’ Bitches!
WTF am I watching? Got TNT through ustvgo dot but they haven’t started the game yet. Maybe I can find a stream for BSD.

Hey, Kate. It’s.. Off to a start. That’s about all I can say. Finally have a slab poured for the new house since Hurricane Laura down here wrecked us. Long slow process.. like Mr. Blashills Process. But it is coming along. Lumber should be delivered soon so they can start the framing and roofing and whatnot. So that’s good.
Then the wife gets Covid, but she is doing well now. Seems she got a very mild case of it. Only felt bad for a day. But we are not done yet. Which made me test as well, and of course I am positive as well. But I don’t have any symptoms. So I am good in that regard. But yeah, 2022 should be good. We should finally have a house this year. I hope everything is going well on your end.

Sending positive thought you way. Good Luck.
Posted by calquake from Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst on 01/26/22 at 08:52 PM ET

Appreciate it, Cal. But so far, we are both doing well. But I’ll take all the good vibes coming.

Hola 19. Just caught the last of the pregame with a goat and wine for Gretzky’s birthday. Lord help us if this is the new NHL we have to digest.

That’s good news Ror. Hope the materials shortage doesn’t cause you too much delay or expense.
Posted by RWBill on 01/26/22 at 08:57 PM ET

Sounds like ya got a bunch of lemons Ror and you are making lemonade. Keep er goin. You got this.
Posted by cigar_nurse from On LTIR for the Greenville Pylons on 01/26/22 at 08:58 PM ET

The expense has been the huge delay so far, which was expected. Contractor went on to Mississippi to get some lumber cause it was cheaper there.

But yeah, 2022 should be good. We should finally have a house this year. I hope everything is going well on your end. smile

Sorry about the set backs, but, you sound as if you’re looking forward. And that’s a great way to carry on. All the best and more for you and you family.

He’s got a certain flair about him!
Then again somebody needs to clear the rebounds!
Posted by RWBill on 01/26/22 at 09:05 PM ET

Hron should be fired. Why in the hell did he drop his stick..

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.
