So much for that lead.

I missed that story apparently.

YAY for scoring first.

I didn't say the two things DID have anything to do with each other. I said today was basically a great day, so let's make it even better by winning. I don't see how you missed that.

On this great day of celebration and joy, let us conclude it with a Wings win.

The ability to put someone's face through the bench and act like it's no big deal. They're clearly missing that last ingredient for a Cup run.

I miss him. I wish he stayed with the Wings, but I understood his reasons for wanting to move on. I wish him well.

Honestly, I'd rather the Wings beat teams by scoring more goals than having someone on the ice whose sole job it is to beat the s*** out of people. I know that's not what everyone here wants when they say the Wings need an "enforcer", but I'm sure it's what some people want. With all the rule changes that have been instituted recently in regards to fighting/physicality on the ice, I'd rather just concentrate on the players we do have. An enforcer, at least in my mind, would be more trouble than its worth. Just my .02.

Provided his putrid carcass is in the lineup on Feb. 25, I'm taping that game. Lord knows SOMETHING is bound to happen. If it doesn't, I'm going to be very disappointed.

I knew he had hidden talents.

I went to bed about 12:30. Woke up about 15 minutes ago. Damn it. That's both for waking up and for us losing the game. At least we came back and made a game of it, it's better than lying down and getting stepped on. Damn.

This was about a decade ago, but a friend joked with me that Red Wings fans must think Yzerman is God. I told her she wasn't far off.

Well, I think this is it for me right here. Morpheus is calling because I'm about to collapse on the keyboard. The Wings will win, keep the faith and all that jazz.

Oooh, considering he's out for the rest of game that is indeed, quite the bold prediction.

This game is still very winnable. For us, that is.

Aww, that was cute.

I don't hate Ozzie, won't hate Ozzie, but he's not looked good tonight. I think it would have been smarter to start Conklin, but at this point we just have to send some positive vibes and juju his way and hope that an invisible force field surrounds the crease.

Did someone on the Wings sleep with a Shark's wife or something? They're awful chippy tonight.

Is that your way of saying I'm not a "passionate" fan because I'm not screaming how much I hate this player or that player? If so, I think you need to check that statement, because I won't have anyone questioning how much I am fan of this hockey team. It's a big game, everyone's hyped up but that's no reason to start going "ZOMG I HATE ____________". Save that for the fans of lesser teams.

No, my argument is that you need to calm down. And before you start ranting again, YES I'M WATCHING THE GAME.

Why do you ask people who are either questioning or disagreeing with your opinion whether or not they're watching the game? Are you convinced that people who disagree with you must be watching a Ron Popeil informercial instead? YES WE'RE WATCHING THE GAME. QUIT ASKING.

........and all this means you hate him, because? No one is thrilled with this game, but I don't hate anyone on our team. I save my hatred for people who AREN'T Wings. Funny how that works. "ZOMG OZZIE SUCKS TRADE HIM FOR A BAG OF LINT". Be frustrated, but be sane too.

Overreacting much?

Remember after Hossa's goal I said I wanted 5 more like that, 3 from Hank and 2 from Pasha? Well, they each have one. Get crackin', boys.
