Good day and welcome to all. The Wings season is winding down, and with just four games left, it’s kind of a relief for some of us. So, let’s sit back, and have some fun this afternoon/morning(for some of the 19).
It’s the Penguins vs the Wings. The puck drops around 1:00 PM and will be broadcast on ABC/ESPN+, and SN. You can also listen on the Red Wings Radio Network (97.1 The Ticket in Detroit).
It’s a Live Blog!
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.
Good Morning Katie from my part of the world. I will gladly accept 3 consecutive losses after today if the Wings win. I don't like the Pens. Never have, never will. L.G.R.W.
I second that.😉☘☘☘
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Good Afternoon Kate and Calquake. ABC is pumping up Pittsburgh already.
Sickening isn't it. And hey bf.
Hi there frog. Heres hopping😉☘☘☘
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Bob Wischusen, Brian Boucher and Leah Hextall with the call.
If you have an extra $75M, you can buy Chris Chelios' Malibu beach front home.
Darn, my credit card balance is a little high this month, but thats an attractive price! 😝
Afternoon, Bitches!
Would not mathematically eliminate Pittsburgh, but just about. I would like to see Detroit help put an end to Pittsburghs consecutive playoff streak by sweeping the season series.
Im glad you made it today RW.☘😉
Lets Go Red Wings
Hola 19. I expect a good Wings effort that will be counteracted by questionable officiating. We shall see. LGRW
Of course. Look for the Pittsburgh 5 on 3.
We had family from Denver here this week. 86 year old sister in law and 65 year old Niece. Yeah, Avs fans as well. But, I will respect the much hated Avs.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
I agree Kate. They let the AVS and Red Wings play unlike Pittsburgh.
Holy crap, 65 y/o niece! That should make you feel old. My sisters oldest boy turned 50, that makes me feel old for sure.
Well, its my lucky halfs side of the fam. But, Ill never feel old. Im a woman, I only feel what I want to feel. 😉☘
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
poop
UGH!
GET IT BACK!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
0-1 And the announcers are drooling.
I dont think Ive ever heard a howl as loud by an (impartial) announcer.. Hes no Doc.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Sumbitch
I will respect the much hated Avs.
They have earned it. The Pens... not so much.
Whats up degens? This is probably the last game I get to watch this season, and my last LB. I welcome the spring, but this is bittersweet. Sad to say were not listening to Ken and Mickey. My contempt for Wishchusen or whatever his name is runs deep. The guy sounds like hes constantly on the edge of wetting* himself.
Yall are the best!
Thanks for coming on board this season bez.
Always glad to have ya here Bez.
Hey bez! Were all happy youre here. 😉☘
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Im glad I get to do this one more time this season. I miss chatting with you beautiful people.
Bah. Announcers not showing any favoritism? Get er back.
They arent acting way too excited at all.
Lil' Gary ordered it.
Penalty of course.
38 PPs in 8 games, 5 pp per game average when theyre battling for a play position. Who could have guessed that?
Me and my foil hat. Thats who. And were usually right.
A Pittsburgh penalty? That Ref will be punished.
Uhhhh it had to be cry baby boy.
NOOOOOO!
GET THEM BACK!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
FFS Jake!
0-2 Give away to Crybaby. That may be the game. Disgusting.
Oh jeebus phuck! That after a pretty decent pp .
sumbitch.
One good thing is it may drop the Red Wings in the standings.
Bad Wallman. Rosby capitalizes on it is a kick in the gonads in the Budd Lynch minute. Tear some plaster off the walls in the locker room coach.
I still think Florida and Isles get in, Cats opponents will be resting players.
Ok WTF is going on with Chellys hair? LOL.
There were 2 things I told myself I would never do when I reached 'old age' : 1) complain aboot my various aches and pains 2) make 'old man' sounds every time I get oot of my chair.
I'm now in my 70's and still working on both issues. ;)
A very different kind of Sounds of the 70s. 😄😄😄
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
TSOP
Haha
Ha! Good one.
I think youve earned the privilege.
"Get Off My Lawn"
Im thinking Eastwood from Gran Torino.
I more resemble the empty chair from the 2012 RNC.
Heck with 19+, you may set a record with up votes.
Seider pummeling Malkin, I like that.
poop on a stick
Eff it!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
I was just in the process of typing that the wings are actually creating some scoring chances, but the other end of the ice is wide open, and it remains so times three.
0-3 Glad I sold my tickets.
Suter!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Pope Pius!
1-3 Suter.
Tic-Tac-Toe! Nice..☘☘☘
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Score! You could feel that coming.
Thats about the prettiest goal theyve done this year.
Alright! LGRW!
WTF! No effing way!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
HABEMUS PAPAM!
FFS, but now have to kill off the PK.
Newsy needs to give Simon some Power Play time
The next three foals are huge.
Back from talking to my 56 y/o baby brother. Still down by 2 with the usual multi Pittsburgh pps. Plenty o time left with that December miracle game in our minds.
Did you give him a noogie ?
Yup. Mom isnt here to stop me. I can finally outrun her chasing me down with the stick. She is 96 now.
Would love for the Wings to get a Budd Lynch goal here heading into the intermission.
Looking for Wallman to make up for his earlier gaffe.
We can hope.
1-3 after two. I just wish the ABC announcers would shut up, and wipe their drool off the floor.
Gotta love Chelios and Messier rubbing it in on Poor cupless PK.
He didn't seem to really want it, could have played a lot longer
Yeah! Edvinsson!
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Nice knock down by Edvisson.
Larkins hurting.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
How many pps do these guys get?
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
As many as it takes. Bull feathers.
FFS poop
This sucks! Jeebuz! Christo!
Seriously though wish needs a new pair of pants after that goal.
WTF? No effin way,
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!
Sumbitch.
Four on Foreplay !!
What an effin joke. How much more blaitent can ya get?
How the hell do you make that call at this point in the season? The interference calls since the all-star break have been jaw dropping. Let them play for christs sake.
I am very pleased with Simple Simon's play since being called up. He's a keeper.
Maybe they can find someone to pair up with him with good results like theyve had with Walman and Seider.
I was afraid of this, the high point of my day looks like its going to be buying some mulch at Lowes.
Stop at the liquor store and your "high point" changes instantly...
These guys remind me of the jackitorium. Remember?
OMG I remember the name but not any image.
Its all about the image😉
Then thats my loss. Please help.
You bet! A great work! Who posted it? Anyone? Bueller?
I made the comment but I forget who posted the image.
Those were the days my friend. Eh?😉
A classic!
mulch poop
Oh well.
Goaltender interference? Never mind.
I cant listen to these guys make out with the Pens anymore.
Have a good break bez. Maybe see you around draft time?
Too much tongue.
Enough drool to drown a giraffe. Jebus.
I think tonguing has a different meaning in Irish sea shantys.
There once was a ship that put to sea
The name of the ship was the Billy O' Tea
The winds blew up, her bow dipped down
Oh blow, my bully boys, blow (huh!)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
Pens only need a loss by NYI or FLA to jump into the playoff position.
Okay. Next game? Anyone?😉
Thats it. Until next time, reprobates, another game lost by some egredious mistakes.
Another loss by an inferior team. Until next time reprobates. Later.
Monday and Tuesday, and thats it.
1-5 Final. ABC still sucking up.
Maybe if Paul can archive the old blog software, it can be found.
Until the next game, have a great Easter 19.
I will attend my last game as a season ticket holder Monday after 18 years. Many god memories.
