BottleOfSmoke

This made me laugh harder than it reasonably should. Maybe because I read it in Mrs. Doubtfire's voice... LGW! My normally sophisticated palate is being compromised by the fact that the only alcohol in the house at the moment is a giant bottle of Jim Beam that someone left after our last party

Ugh dammit don't remind me of that game. I should have wiped my ass with that money. Did I tell everyone that I sat next to Bob Rouse's brother at that game? Because that was the only thing of note that happened during that s*** show...

@Bill_Roose: Franzen will be in #RedWings lineup tonight on a line with Helm and Alfredsson. And this gem from Helene: @HeleneStJames: "There's no one who's a bigger fan of Dan Cleary than Mike Babcock" - Mike Babcock

Happy Birthday Grace Kelly! You is young. No more excuses, no more bulls***. Tuck up your dicks so you stop tripping over them, and JUST. WIN.

Any MMA fans here? All I could think of is the Corey Hill leg break...thank god Stammer was socked and taped up so we didn't have to see it. *shivers*

The jokes really make themselves in this thread, don't they?

@NHL: I think about you guys a lot and Ill never forget what we were able to accomplish. Shanahan on time w/ Detroit http://t.co/MocFUrYpJD We think about you too, Shanny! Mostly when you're ******* things up now, but sometimes for good stuff too! So glad he agreed to participate in the AG Edit: this was one of the first comments under that tweet: @tbegley: @NHL - Disgusting and a perfect example of why he's not objective in his role with the league. He should resign or be fired! Hey @tbegley: trolololololololol!!!

My favorite Shanny pic of all time.

*throws tampon at E_T* I really want to like and support women's hockey. REALLY. I just...it's just so...ugh. But...grrls rock and all that stuff.

Here's the gif of the collision: http://twitpic.com/dkwvmt Vid is up at nhl.com. He looked MISERABLE on the ice. Hope his season isn't over...

Ugh that was an ugly break. He looked like he was in so much pain! Mule would never show that much passion on the ice

The Halloween conference has costumes, dude. COSTUMES.

Ok, I'm going to come in here for a short rant because I'm feeling surly this fine Monday morning. Disclaimer: this pertains to the topic at hand, but is directed at the media covering this kerfluffle and not so much about any of the opinions expressed in this thread. I want Steve Yzerman to participate in the AG as much as anyone. He is My Captain, the man I grew up watching lead this team longer than all others. I paid good money for my AG tix, and would love nothing more than to get the opportunity to piss my pants over seeing Stevie on a line with Feds again (because I like to party, natch). That being said, I am sick and fricking *tired* of the BS ENTITLEMENT being expressed in so many of the articles covering the issue. "Stevie owes it to THE FANS!!!111!!1!1" NO. No he doesn't. He gave up his heart, soul, body, you name it to this team when he was captain. He owed it to the fans for 23 years, a promise he made good on time and time again. He owes us NOTHING more than he has already given. People saying they're "losing respect" for Yzerman's legacy because he's being noncommittal about attending the AG? Good grief! Short of flying in by helicopter and taking a dump on JLA, there's not much Stevie could do that would make me lose respect for his legacy. That includes not giving a rabbit fart about the AG. Whatever. TL,DR and all that. Happy Vets day to all who've served and the families that support them.

LGW! I won't be watching this one, going to a concert. Here's to hoping I come home to good news!

I snorted falafel, if that's possible.

Then I'm just not seeing his play the way you have been, because I think he's stepped up admirably. "Be on top of his game more often than he has been?" So...10 games out of 10 instead of 9 games out of 10? I just think there are a lot of areas that this team can be criticized--in my opinion, Kronner is not one of them. He's not perfect, but I think he's been pretty damn solid.

Thank you. Kronner had an UNCHARACTERISTICALLY crappy game. He has been more than solid and reliable thus far this season. There are a lot of issues on this team--Kronner is NOT one of them.

Congrats to the Dallas Nills, who according to the refs played the cleanest game in the history of forever and all time! I reward you with a giant middle finger! Use it to passionately penetrate each other's anuses, please. YAY!

Shoulda had this one. Dallas had some help for sure.

We've beaten the refs before. Bring it.

******* joke

Pav...my precious... *scampers into the dark*

It doesn't have to be. That's what antibiotics are for. Is a two goal lead the most frequently blown lead by the Wings in the history of all time and space?

FML

Every time I see you post I feel like you should go to the doctor and get that checked out.
