Instead Of Whining? Let’s Make Some Sort Of Sick Contest Out Of It

If we were Pens fans, we’d be piling up the alibis, pointing to different injuries as to reasons why our guys can’t possibly be expected to win with any frequency.

But, thank Jebus, Santa and the patron saint of serial killers, we’re not fans of a one-trick team whose “captain” requests permission from his owner to wear powdered blue around the house. 

Instead, we’re starting to take an obscene enjoyment in watching the Grand Valley Haven Rapids Detroit Griffin Wings play better team defense than we’ve seen in a year, clamp down on the PK and actually give us hope for the goaltending of the future.  That’s homegrown Jimmah to you and me.

But, oh the horror.  Players keep falling.  I told you bitches yesterday that this wasn’t the end.  Not by a long shot.  Ericsson’s the latest and there will be more.

So the only thing we can do is guess who it’s gonna be.

For a $25 gift certificate from Ice Jerseys, name who it is.  First tie breaker is what the injury is.  Second tie breaker is anticipated time to heal.  Make it specific in case that’s a deal sealer.

And don’t forget, you have to be a KK member to participate.  Register here if you still need to.

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
