Heroes of Hockeytown

Pretty obvious call.

Uh ooohhh

Attaboy Flipper.

Predictably, LA wins.

Hawks defeat the Flames 3-1, Wings are in for at least tonight no matter what happens in LA.

They were weird goals, to be sure. At the dizzying height of my rage I was ready to drive out to St. Paul and give them a piece of my mind, but upon further review even Mike didn't seem too upset at the meltdown. Maybe this meltdown was a fluke and all the other ones were legit. What I do know is that this place would be going absolutely nuts if Flip (and then Miller) hadn't scored, so we can be thankful for that if nothing else. Their next game is against the Kings so whether or not those guys win tonight, playoff spots are on the line Saturday.

Heh, the guy Philly traded Carcillo for scored a natural hat trick tonight and is closing in on 20 goals.

DREW ******* MILLER!!!!!!!!!

Cleary always goes five-hole, and never scores.

C'MON JIMMY, FINISH THIS!!!

I can barely stand to watch.

They are just hanging on for the shootout (that they normally lose).

These guys have been blowing leads since game 1 of the year in Sweden. This is just out of control.

I can barely stand watching them go into a meltdown every single game anymore.

Hohoho, didn't think they'd make it easy do you?

Suddenly, Meech in Norris-mode.

Hallelujah!!

For everything good in this world, score here Wings. A two goal lead would do my soul good.

PATTY!

Ericsson, that was ******* dreadful.

Lebda-Ericsson would be the number one pairing on any other team, for sure.

I'd be very surprised if this doesn't count.

Oh look, a stupid fluke goal.

Well, 2 goal lead isn't really anything anymore, but whatever a comfortable lead is, the Wings can't ever get it, and it's usually not for lack of chances. It's maddening.

These guys cannot get a comfortable lead to save their lives. They will never, ever have a 2 goal lead.
