The Ducks Are Going To Use One Of Those Elmer Fudd Guns And Blast Us

We're about to Live Blog a shipwreck.
I have nothing good to report. Anaheim is the best team in hockey right now. We are the 7th best team in the Western Conference, if that. Anaheim hasn't lost at home since 1985. The Wings are in a fun little dance we like to call, "One step forward, eight steps back right into a pile of steaming dog shit."
Mike Babcock actually said...
“Bert and Helmer and Sammy (Mikael Samuelsson) have been on our roster, but I haven't seen them. It would be like a trade-deadline deal (getting one or two back). It would be unbelievable to have them.
God. Please. Just STFU.
But hey, don't worry. The trade deadline's right around the corner and the Wings are ready to stick some shishkabob spears into some burning meat just to see if it's raw or cooked and if it's cooked, well then shit let's send it down to GR to get even more cooked but if it's raw? Well hell. If it's raw, you let a good talented defenseman sign with Edmonton instead of making a big push to get him in Detroit because Kyle Quincey, for instance, is wayyyy better than, oh I don't know...Justin Schultz?
And if you don't learn your lesson from that, then you go ahead and do what the smart kids tell you is the stupidest fuching thing ever...you repeat the same mistake. What am I saying?
Don't even think about this Dekeyser kid. Thinking about it is setting yourself up and that leads to nothing but disgust because Tick Tock's trying to decide whether we can afford yet another young player who makes less than 500 thousand, eh?
What he's really trying to do, and he's said as much, is figure out whether the Wings are a playoff team. Well, are they? Huh? We'll find out soon enough. Tonite. Sunday. In Anaheim. It's not looking good. Not one bit.
Live Blog it, bitches. The ugliness is just beginning, really.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like they are a sadomasochist for watching the Red Wings?

as I posted in the GDT:
thanks, Okie
” ... DET take their 5-6-2 road record ... “
[38.5% winning pct., only 12 of possible 26 pt.s]” ... away-and-away with ANA ... “
[how often is an ‘away-and-away’ scheduled? 1 in 1,000? 1 in 10,000? 100,000? ???]” ... ANA (13-1 at home ... “
[92.9%, 26 of 28 pt.s]” ... then go to PHX (10-5-1 at home), ... “
[62.5%, 21 of 32 pt.s]” ...and finish the road-trip at SJS (8-1-4 at home) ... “
[61.5%, 20 of 26 pt.s]” ... before ending the month hosting CHI (13-2-2 away). ... “
[76.5%, 28 of 34 pt.s][ ...if my math is right ... ]

Us. Many of us.
Posted by CaptainDennisPolonich from Warm and sunny SoCal on 03/22/13 at 08:15 PM ET
can we please make that a theme for this season: Babcock STFU ?
I’m so sick of uncle Mike theory.
Were doomed. We can’t possibly do what we HAVE to do, which is get 3 points in the next 48 hours. Screw it. lets do it any way. We’re riding the new third line FTW.

Tertiary scoring? I vaguely remember that concept.
Posted by CaptainDennisPolonich from Warm and sunny SoCal on 03/22/13 at 08:46 PM ET
+ 19 Cap’n . It could and has been much much worse in the darkness with Harkness days. A team when Terry Harper was our TPH and Paul Woods was our Pavs?
I took a bite out of the that shit pile earlier today and am looking forwars to a better night. Like last Friday?
Go Wings.

Time to crawl through a river of shit and come out clean on the other side. Let’s do this.

Any Wings feed around? I’m so not in the mood for this other announcer crap.
It’s not that Ken and Mick are better.. They aren’t the typical homers. They call shit how it should be. A bad call is a bad call, no matter the team. A good call is a good one. All these other bastids don’t credit anything unless it’s their team. Makes me fuching sick.

Hola Beetches!
So, which personality of the schizophrenic Wings will show up tonight? I am fully expecting them to get stomped….so….I predict a 5-2 Wings win.
Just because I don’t know jack squat.
Posted by Thunderpriest on 03/22/13 at 10:05 PM ET
but do we score on the pp while on the road?
pregame song being sung.

Greetings. NHL Network shits all over us by giving us the worst broadcast crew in all of sports. Proving once again that the NHL is the very definition of EPIC FAIL
