Vladifan

I think we should get extra "likes" this time of year. I find I'm using up a lot of 'em on this thread. Not that I mind!

Speaking of Vladifan, it seems she lied. Big time. She is about to waffle, welch, and wuss out at keeping her pledge at $5 a goal. God love them Wangs and I fervently hope they'll keep playing out of their heads but bankruptcy ain't an option. My zeal was obviously bigger than my wallet. SO. Let's round the present amount out to $100 and from now on let's put it at $1.00 a goal. I should be able to take it over sometime this Wednesday, Catherine. THANKS!! *ducking, dodging, weaving*

THIS!! I'm sitting in the hotel bathroom cause I couldn't sleep anyway. So it's 2-1 with Abby's short-handed goal??!

I'll probably be getting up around 4am to pee here in London. If I can hold it long enough, I'm checking the score!! GO, RED WINGS!!!!!!!

Flashy - Your work is wonderful on all levels. This is steller stuff. I think my fave in this one is Boudreau the Hutt. I'm guessing even the Ducks are checking these out. At least the pictures, since there's really no proof they can read.

We're in London, UK (THANKS for keeping track of the charity thingie, Vladdy16!) . We've not been online much because it was costing a fortune. But we're in a hotel here now and it's free! Whee! It's also now 12:10 am here, while it's not even game time there. Aaaack! We'll know the score tomorrow. BUT OUR BOYZ CAN AND MUST DO THIS. GO, BELOVED RED WINGS!!

OK, I needed that. I'm laughing out loud. Thanks! Me too. Where else can you lose a big game and still laugh afterward?! Thanks, Karen!!

Who IS John Thorson/Foursome/Whoever? Who does he work for? He's an idiot.

blackhawks just scored. Don't know who. Don't care who. Sure hope they're beat up though.

I don't think they're the real Ducks' announcers, but they are just as bad. The one with the higher voice needs to wear a bib when he rhapsodidizes about the Ducks. ...urp....

DAN CLEARY WITH THE FIRST GOAL. Gutsy work in front of the net. GO FRICKIN' FIGURE. GO, RED WINGS!!!!!!!!!

I want to know where NBC is going to put the Wings/Ducks game. Directv just blacked it out on FoxD. Damn them ALL!!! And the Blues game is not over yet either. SOMEBODY BETTER FIGURE THIS s*** OUT!

Still a helluva'n idea. THANKS again, Catherine. I have none of Karen's creativity when it comes to how to set this up, and we only have two dogs already named Dave and Mylie; so I'm gonna say $5 per goal and $5 per shutout, throughout however far they go. Yeah, it could hurt but in a good way! And there can't be as much pain as our guys will probably go through fighting off the cheapshots from the Quackers, et al. LET'S GO, RED WINGS!! $5.00 per goal as far as they can take it! $5.00 per shutout has far as they can take it!

I LOVE checking these out! Can't thank you talented ones enough for your talent, effort and creativity.

He might very well have been. In fact, the only one I'm sure was called back to Austin was Matt Fraser. Sorry 'bout that.

The most promising part of this is the chemistry all lines have developed. I know they're gonna at least bring in Bert and Helm if they can. But still...when you think about it, a miracle took place with this team the last few weeks .

Your comment about the Euro twins reminds me of when I got to watch the Russian Five on the ice. I loved watching them. But I wish I'd realized at the time how lucky I was to get to view that kind of dynamic action on the ice. Guess the perspective wasn't quite there for me. Thanks for the reminder.

But you have no control over what they think. And it's over. In every sense of the word.

He HAS a brother who's annoying as hell. But in a good way. Geordie. He plays here in Austin with the AHL team.

I wonder if that was rrasco?! I almost hope not. He'll miss most of the third. AND HOW'S ABOUT BIG E??!!

YEEEHAAAA!!! I anm SO happy for Zetterberg!!

Doors are shut (it's hotter'n hell here) but the dogs run out of the room when I let loose.
