The Day After and the Day Of

I'll say it again, and I'll mean it this time: It's December and our hopes rest with the Lions.

Last night was disgusting.

But, you handled it admirably.

And that, in itself, is yet another referendum on Kenneth Holland.

No one, not one of you, was surprised to see the Wings give up that lead, against that team.

Five years ago? We would be apoplectic today.

This year? Nice job getting a lead against the Stanley Cup champs. Didn't keep it? That's ok.

The Team That Ken Built isn't supposed to beat That Team.

This team? The Islanders?

That's a team the Wings are supposed to beat.

The Lions are 8-4 and that is...amazing. Naturally, every one of us expects them to finish 8-8. I blame that on Ken Holland, too. Why? No idea. But I do.

It's a Live Blog, bitches.

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.
