I Take It All Back

Before the last game against Dallas, I went ahead and looked at the standings. The Wings were behind 7 teams for the final wild card. That made me sad.

After the game I looked again, and man things are looking up.

Now we're behind only five.

But wait, according to the interns from Wayne State...if we win tonite, and NJ loses (if they even play and you know I'm not gonna look), then we're in the second wild card spot and next thing you know we're all clamoring for Finals tickets and then the hookers are wheeling up from down river and the fire trucks are lining Woodward and we've got ourselves a damn June parade.

Oh, I know. I know.

But, um, five out of six points? That's kinda good.

There we are. That's the life we live in now. That's our optimism.

LGRW because it's a Live Blog, bitches.

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.
