Gotta get out the bracelet stuff... Good luck with the beards, guys!

Late games on Friday. Grr. If they were early, I'd be able to see them. Instead, I have to go to work. Oh, well. Get it done, boys!

Looks like it's going to be stay in tonight. Bf has the phone off. Again. Norm Abram or Mike Holmes?

Help!- the Beatles

What was Ericsson thinking? How bad are you when you make Koko look good?

Little C's. Wine or wine coolers?

No kidding. That looks painful. I'm really liking Eaves. He brings some nice offense for someone I think of as a defensive guy.

I've sure been hearing Kopecky's name a lot this game.

And I can't find my toenail clipper anywhere. If that's not an omen of impending doom, I don't know what is.

After a season where every game was crucial, it's actually kind of nice to watch a game where the world won't end if we don't win.

Thank you so much!!!! I was ready to take single-edge razor blades and rip his lips off, chop them in a shredder and force feed them to him through his nostrils.

Man I wish drum was streaming. This idiot can't even shut up during the National Anthem.

Hawks announcers but better than nothing. Plus the guy streaming is some sort of a moron who babbles and plays music instead of letting us listen to the announcers.

I wish I had an 18-year-old daughter. I'd offer her hand in marriage.

Spell. It's hard to cast a speak. Chicken fried rice or granola bars?

All By Myself= Eric Carmen

Bumping to the front page so people will see it, but to add actual content, I'll make a suggestion. If we do this in the playoffs, maybe we could do each round as a new game, keeping the running total just for that round. Then we'd have four champs (hopefully). It would make for good bragging rights.

I was chatting with a truck driver and he told me this joke: Q: What's the difference between Detroit and New York City? A: In Detroit, you can actually understand them when they say "Give me all your money!" So he doesn't like Detroit. I don't blame him. I'd hate any city where I was going to get my butt kicked on a business trip.

Either way is good, but warm is better. Frozen or canned veggies?

Mine's 1 month and 22 days after Loo's. I guess you'd call that soon. The person below me would like to *****-slap those little bastards who try to get them fired from their job in the name of public service.

Detroit: Raffy, Dats, Helmer Chicago: Kane

Money, Money, Money- ABBA

I'm relieved. I know some people feel that the Wings can beat anyone in 7, and that is what I hope for, but I just have a bad feeling about Chicago. I feel that after last year they will be gunning for us. We knocked them out just when they were feeling like they were going to make it. That's got to sting. They will be approaching us with the same venom that we will have should we face the Pens again this year. Their young players now have playoff experience under their belts, which they were sorely lacking last year. Think of the difference between the '08 Pens and the '09 Pens. They do have talent there. Of course, there's talent everywhere, but I just feel more confident against Vancouver (assuming that My Sammy is out) or San Jose. Not a popular opinion, I know, but it's mine.

It was a contest. They beat out a drunk polka band, a mime, and the Lower Michigan School for the Deaf.

I hope the "energy" he shows is applauding wildly from the press box.
