WCSF Game 1 GDT: Red Wings 4, Avalanche 3

You mean the one that goes "there ain't no party like a Detroit part 'cause a Detroit party don't stop?" If not, then it's probably ''Detroit Rock City" that you are talking about which is by Kiss.

Ah, if those are the lyrics, and it is Kid Rock, then it's definitely the EMSP outro.

Talk about a Jekyll and Hyde game. The Wings responded amazingly well early and dominated the first half of the game. But we all knew that it wouldn't be that easy.

But the Wings looked like the Sharks trying to protect a lead out there. I'm stating the obvious, but they need to not sit back next time. The middle of the third was particularly brutal. But I thought the last four minutes the Wings did a great shutdown job--except that blow coverage with 10 secs left, and Ozzie was there to bail them out.

But the important thing is that the Wings did hang on, and they'll come back with a much better effort for game 2.

Speaking of which, I expect much more complete efforts from both teams Saturday. Especially if Floppa is back for the Avs (and Hannan and Wolski return), and if the Wings get Stuart and perhaps Malts back.

That was a fun game, Wingies. Don't do that to me again! :lol:

Aww where's the "other" doggy?

Other doggy's gone. This is the playoffs and ugly is the word. Mean and ugly. Just like our win today.

Yeah Red Wings thats the s*** right there.

I heart public holidays and I especially heart them when the Wings win. And I especially heart them even more when I'm drinking and going to a BBQ.

Yeah Wings fire that s*** up!! Woo!!

Entertaining game for sure! Dats, Franz, Z and Kronwal looked very good tonight. Lebda looked lost, and Cheli, well Cheli looked 46 tonight, maybe it was an off night but yikes. Getting Stuart back will help I guess cause then Lilja should be down on the 3rd pair with Cheli. Honestly though, if we lose a game I would like to see Meech make an appearance in this series. Sammy has got to get off that point on the 2nd pp too, he'll cost us a game at some point if he plays there all series.

Osgood let in one bad one, but came back strong in the 3rd when we needed him so maybe next game we'll play hard for the WHOLE game.

Osgood is my #1 favorite person ever in the world after that save he made with ~5 seconds left. holy s***.

Playing the last 10 minutes in our zone is a great way to get scored on. Jesus.

Granted game 1 against the preds was almost as bad.

Great offense tonight, s*** defense.

Great pics, seedless! How was the crowd tonight?

So I was just reading the detroit freep article on the game tonight and saw this. Pretty funny stuff coming from Oz, as usual.

“What are the odds of the goalies fighting each other in this series?” I asked Osgood.

“Zero,” he said.

“Zero?”

“We’re both too good looking.”

I've tickets for Game 5 (don't tell my wife- they're birthday presents), and I'll bust out the camera.

Here's to hoping the 80mm max lens length is real- I've a 35-75mm that would be perfect.

*looks up*

There's the bloody 5!

Didn't get to watch this one, but very happy that we won. Atta boy Franzen, keep it up. Looking forward to Saturday (why do we always play Saturday afternoon? It sucks).

2 shots on goal.

Well yeah I just looked but it seems like more ( few probably got deflection). Maybe it's just because he's had like 2 shots on goal over the entire second half of the season so any shot from him surprises me, let alot multiple in a single game.

Either way, i'm pleased.

The crowd was nuts. Everyone was on their feet and loud as hell the final 2 minutes. The Ozzie chant at the end was REALLY loud. We were going crazy. :scared:
