The Wings will beat Washington and Pittsburgh in the same weekend and every single one of us will spend the rest of the spring and summer pissed off that talent resides on this team to win like that, over those teams, and still miss the playoffs.

It would be nice if the Wings defeated Pittsburgh today. That would be fun, because defeating that team--from what I remember--seems to be fun.

But, during commercials or waiting for the shootout to start, I'd like you to ruminate over this little nugget.

“I’ll do anything to win,” he said Friday. “If we have to fix our cap situation, we can do it after the season.”

Remember when Ken Holland said that? Do you? Do you remember when he had the nuts and the spunk, the swagger, to say that?

Me either. That was Jim Rutherford, Pittsburgh GM, last week, via 30 Thoughts.

What do we get? "Trades are hard" and we're going to "kick some tires."

Enjoy your Sunday.

LGRW and for God's sake FKH ASAP.

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.
