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.

Johnny Gaudreau ill tonight, won't play for Columbus.
Pens up 1-0 early.
1-0 NYI.
1-1.
One of the few times I want to see Crybaby win.😀
2-0 Pens.
2-1 Isles.😟
2-1 Islanders.
2-2
3-0 Pens
Cool so far; 2-2 CBJ/NYI and 3-0 PIT/WAS
3-0 wow. The penguins keep winning over teams above them and Detroit, which is good but really jamming things up jelly tight.
Budding WWE star Aaron Ekblad out until playoffs.
The Bruins are just remarkable year after year. After the Canadians, they have the best winning percentage over the years by quite a good margin, given that the Canadians percentage is skewed by the early years.
3-2 NYI, 16 minutes left.
Drats!
Oh, oh. PIT-3, WAS-1. With 8 min left in the 3rd.
3-1 Pens
Remarkably the Isles are just minutes away from claiming WC2 coming out of nowhere.
CBJ go full Blashill and pull the goalie with 3:30 remaining.
4-2 Islanders, 30 seconds left.
4-1 Pens, 2 minutes left.
Wow just the third eng for the Isles gives them 2 points and their 25th RW.
What a crazy race now. Going to be fun to plot this out visually.
This is neat. If you cout a game in hand as 1pt we basically have a 4 way tie for 2 spots with a 5th team 1 point back.
The Red Wings have a tough game Friday Night.😉
ya. so fu$%^% win it.
This setup might be the most painful thing for Wing fans to endure. Even the "easy" game against Montreal will be much tougher if the Habs have the incentive of knocking the Wings out.
Get the Mallox and/or alcohol ready peeps.
Good game by the Isles tonight.... Columbus had to shift to a rookie goalie after their starter got hurt and this young guy played very well. They Isles won faceoffs, stayed out of the box. Since their special teams are not so good - this is a better recipe for success.... I am going to the game on Saturday vs. Nashville at UBS, so am now looking forward to it. I just can't bring myself to cheer on the Rag$ on Friday - so good luck to the Wings at that time. Pittsburgh has really turned up the gas. I keep thinking that the Isles are more likely to finish 3rd in the Metro than attain a WC. The Flyers just seem a bit flat and the PP is terrible. I've stopped handicapping this Eastern race - let's see how it plays out!
