Offsides

Maybe Lang will sign with us again for less money...?

Well, a lot of things in hockey are determined by an individual. Like penalties...and penalty shots, and stupid mistakes. 1 persons mistake can result in a loss for the whole team. It's just an aspect of the game, like any other. In any case, it does add a lot of excitement to the games, something the NHL could use to draw more fans, even though us who are already fans want to cross our arms and say we don't need anyone else...ha ha. It would be nice if we could win one though. We are going through quite the dry spell. Ah well. But we still get the point, which would have been the same as the old days that end in a tie...or (the one I hate the most) if we'd have lost in OT. You shouldn't get a point for losing in OT...

Who cares about the shootout. If we were 2 years ago...guess what, we'd still have one point.

Bwahaha, you guys musta never been to a good DRW/Avs game back in the good old days, then. With Roy. You know how the Avs would go OS-----GOOOOOD OS-----GOOOOOD Well at the Joe they did the same thing Ro---------oy Ro----------oy (don't know how they got Roy to have 2 syllables but it was so) Man it always annoyed me when they did it to Ozzie, but it was kinda funny to the hated Avs. Anyway, Roy just turned around, faced the crowd and kind of held his hands up like they were praising him. It was funny...no one is more cocky than him! So, I think some goalies thrive off the chanting if that is possible. Honestly I'm more of a cheering for my own team than booing the other team kind of person, but that's a kind of funny story...and basically Red Wing fans are not above razzing a goalie.

We suck in OT too. Despite everything I still like watching a shootout. Either way...end in a tie, or shootout loss we'd have 1 point. So, at least it was an entertaining 1 point.

I might be psychic but I can't create miracles. Too bad, woulda been nice to see Big Bert be the big hero

Cool, Bert now!

Hey, I called our shooters right, cool

Bertuzzi, Dats, Cleary Says I Then Huddles

Oh, Loo, that was funny Osgood gets blamed for everything except for the 5 nightly things that get pinned on Lang or Lilja

Holy how did that stay out Batman?

Holy how did that stay out Batman?

Well...I mean...duh

This is reminding me of last year where we'd get up by a few goals and then totally colapse in the 3rd. It's so unfortunate for whoever is in net.

Seriously. That was painful. What could Dom do? It was sitting 2 feet away from him and he couldn't touch it or get a penalty...that rule bites us in the ass every game...

That is the WORST rule ever...

Holy Crap...wtf?

Come on Wings, play better! They're looking tired...

To puckhandling...yes, I agree Bert is awesome. I've been impressed with the team all season at really good puckhandling...you know...keeping it in on pp's, crisp tape to tape passes, and stuff like that. I've been really impressed. So with the addition of Bert...yeah, another reason why he's a great fit!

Eh. It's only one. It's the lonliest number, I hear.

Yes it is.

I dunno. I get it. I've visited a lot of other cities though. I think the thing that annoys me most about Red Wing fans is that they are so elitist and think everything everyone else does is so dumb. Not ALL Red Wing fans, but you know what I mean. And then we do things like boo Fedorov, and that's OKAY...and that's OKAY because WE decided to do it, so it's classy. I heard all kinds of things about Blues fans and they were all really cool when I went there, and I met lots of nice people. And Toronto fans were supposedly bad, but other than getting accosted by one drunk person everyone else was really, really nice, and even appologized for the drunk guy (who they didn't know) and most of them were afraid of ME because I was from Detroit and they thought I was in a gang or something. So, you see...other people think the same things about us that we think about them, but it's not true (though I have also been yelled at once or twice at the Joe by drunk fans too) and everyone has good and bad fans, and what is 'good' or 'bad' is just arbitrary anyway.

It seems like every single day someone says Z is ready to be back, then the next day there's a relapse, and back and forth. It's getting really annoying.

Yeah, if other teams did that to us they'd be all..."RED WING FANS DON'T EVEN LIKE THEIR OWN TEAM." ha ha. But yeah, when we lose there's so many bad comments most of the time that it would be easy to make us look bad.

He said they'd been playing a better team game for the last couple of games, and that he misses getting to play in big games and that he was really excited when he got to play in games like this. Stuff like that. It wasn't really long...basic questions, etc.
