Schneids_is_awesome

Wow, i am so way beyond excited about the game tonight that I am on LGW rather than listening to my lecture. Hopefully the wings are feeling my excitement as well, so Wings 3 Ducks 1.

You're a Detroit Red Wings fan if...you still owe your roommate 100 dollars for those round one playoff tickets.

OMG, I am totally guilty of that--I find myself still thinking that if I do something the Wings will win but then sadly remember they aren't playing anymore

I'd go with the obvious choice of Danny Cleary--the guy made a complete 180 from the season before. Even if he fails to put up the same numbers next season his energy and passion would be plenty of a contribution. After Cleary, I'd go with Markov--not really as most improved because he was never playing poorly, but when Schneids went down Markov really stepped in and played awesome. I definitely want to see this guy in a Wings jersey next season

I went to first round game 5--and I was there for my favorite moment of the playoffs: Cleary's short handed penalty shot goal. It was amazing and the Joe erupted.

Holy crap that was horrible. I don't think of Weber as dirty, but that hit might have proved me wrong.

My flight for Florida leaves tomorrow at 6am--meaning I have to be up at 3ish--meaning I have to choose between getting more than 2 hours of sleep tonight or the Wings. I think we all know what I pick, but they better not lose because then I'll be super cranky after no sleep and a wings loss. That said, I feel confident and wouldn't stay up unless I did: Wings 4 Sharks 1

All the conversations going on about this game have been focused on the negatives: like Lebda's conscussion, Langkow's suckerpunch, Noodles' hack/wack/slash on Franzen. So I thought I'd bring up a huge positive for the Wings: Dan Cleary. The man has been amazing. When he went down in the second I was really worried about losing him for tomorrow night's game. His shootout goal was a beauty and his reaction was priceless. The story of Danny Cleary and not being wanted only a few short years ago to being a huge part of a team is a great thing to see. Now I avid Cleary fan, so I'd like to hear what everyone else has to say about the guy, beyond my biased mind. Plus, any others props you'd like to give to other Wings players. Let's focus on our teams huge win, not on Calgary's crapass, sore losing mentality.

NJ SCOREESSSS I just came on to support the Late Night Crew and look what happens, the game ends. Boo. At least NJ won.

Great pic ...if you can't tell already I love Danny Cleary. But seriously the guy doesn't disappoint. He steps up with the big goal and plays with soo much heart. A couple weeks ago I just bought a Cleary game worn jersey and got it signed--I don't regret spending the 400 dollars now.

Leave it!! Pavs is clutch, but we gotta show Cleary some love

The late night crew is hoping for some OT--except I missed last nights' 2OT thriller, boo. I am in the mood for some hockey tonight, so I'll be watching the NJ/Ottawa game.

Looks like Quincey will get the nod regardless, since Lebda is not playing in game one ...I have confidence in Quincey though. Cleary definitely deserves a shot on the first line. That said, the Cleary/Malts/Drapes line has really been clicking. I don't think I'd want to touch that line.

ESPN is reporting that Lebda will be out for game one with a sore ankle and concussion.

LMFAO, that was good--gotta love Cheli.

Nice, I like

Aww yay, thanks. I have confidence that you will come up with a new, creative avatar for Kyle

LMFAO--I love it too

I heard about this yesterday on ESPN and they were making the biggest deal about how horrible it was that Avery said he was going to "hurt" the Sabres...I mean, come on the only reason this is getting attention is because it is Sean Avery saying it. It is just an expression, I seriously doubt he is going to go out that trying to injure people. Yet even more proof that ESPN sucks.

OMG, awesome

Haha, I'm a huge Cleary fan so that one is my favorite!

Agreed...at first thought I said Cleary was the MVP--the guy played amazing, but that said Lidstrom had 8 points and still managed to shut down Igoonla. The guy can honestly do two things at once, he's that good.

Yay they landed and my stalker levels have reached an all time high.

The Calgary Flames took Dom and the Wings for granted and now they are booking tee times. Let's hope that trend follows suit.
