Down 0-1 to this team is not necessarily a concern. Down 0-2 would make me sad but not fetal.
Am I stressed? Yes ma’am.
But concerned? No.
Blogging from a mobile device? That makes me itch. The San Jose Sharks do not.
Live blog it. But don’t stress too badly, too soon.

and no, I’m not particularly worried.
not considering the first period was 3-0 San Jose and the second two periods were 3-1 Wings. once the Wings got their legs going, they were the better team. hopefully tonight we’ll see that the extra day’s rest did them some good.

Right now, somewhere in San Jose, Pavel Datsyuk is making Evgeni Nabokov bark like a dog. No worries, mates.

60 minutes.
Play like the Red Wings.
Win.
And then there will be no stress.
Until then, ...
L.G.R.W.

I have a feeling we will be seeing Zata draped all over Pavelski tonight.

No worries? Your great team gave Sidney Crosby his first Cup, I wouldnt be talking.

Im trying to figure out which is worse, listening to Ken Daniels voice for 60 minutes or watching glitchy, shitty quality atdhe feeds

I’m stressed! But that’s just what I do, and because it’s the playoffs, and because it’s the Wings we’re talking about, and because…
ACK!!!

Oh there’s the trolls, finally.
What does that have to do with this series?

Are you serious?
Posted by stayouttamalibu from California on 05/02/10 at 09:36 PM ET
and by not being skilled enough to make it to the finals last year your team also gave crosby his first cup, silly troll.
Posted by koalacaust on 05/02/10 at 09:37 PM ET
San Jose doesn’t make me fetal. The playoffs make me fetal.

Don’t worry about the troll. What would a Sharks fan know about the Stanley Cup Finals?
Posted by Stevis on 05/02/10 at 09:38 PM ET
Are you serious?
unfortunately, thanks to versus, I half am.
Posted by koalacaust on 05/02/10 at 09:38 PM ET
Ken Daniels has the larynx of an angel, you dirty heathen.

I think you mixed up your announcers.

Exactly.

The only time I’m NOT worried is when the gameclock reads 00:00.0 and the Wings are ahead on the score. Until then, start up a mainline of the Jameson’s IV, won’t you, VooX? Thanks, man…

Stanley Cup Finals? What does a Shark’s fan know about the conference finals? That teams got more choke in it than a class on the heimlich…...Anyway, finally home for a game, where I can watch undisturbed….

Sit Nabby! Roll over Nabby! Good little bitch! Good little bitch!
And speaking of which, evening bitches!

We did have the Cup to give. That much is true.
Posted by monkey from Finland on 05/02/10 at 09:42 PM ET

Hmm….the judges will let you pass on that one, but the correct response was “More choke than Crosby in a room full of dick.”

Well since the DC was of course working the Pens game today, at least we are spared from listening to him.
Posted by stayouttamalibu from California on 05/02/10 at 09:45 PM ET
Puck, CreaseMonkey, and HippyDave are holing it down at the Tank, row 6 bitches. Let’s DO this.

Not fetal - - but just a little stressed
Joe Pavelski scares me.
Hopefully Mule and Buckets can start chipping in a few goals.

Rain and storms rolling thru SE Mich. If I lose power, I’m gonna be all kinda of pissed off.

Hippy Dave’s beard is pretty epic. Perfect color.

Well since the DC was of course working the Pens game today, at least we are spared from listening to him.
I woke up this morning and smiled because the Wings weren’t playing at lunch time and they weren’t on NBC which meant no DC. When I hear his voice I automatically feel a little uncomfortable and filled with annoyance and rage. And when I see him and his creepy eyes, I feel molested by his creepiness and stupidity.
That being said, Hello hello all
