WCF GAME 4 GDT: Red Wings 6, at Blackhawks 1

[EuroTwin 240]

Well, there's Ozzie's drinking problem.

Guzzle up, kiddo! We need you!

Nicely played.

[Outsider 42]

Phew.....

Just saw/heard.

Hopefully a quick recovery.

With the RIGHT kind of fluids, thankyouverymuch.

[betterREDthandead 58]

I sort of doubt this dehydration thing. I think it's more along the lines of, Babs didn't want to give the Hawks any bulletin board stuff by admitting that he thought they had no chance at all to win the game with a whole period left.

[Guest Shoreline]

All speculation right now. Apparently Oz talked to the trainer coming off the ice after the 2nd.

Could be that Babs took Oz out for:

a ) Precautionary reasons

b ) Because he might not get a better chance, this Post Season, to get Conklin in there for qualifying purposes.

At least.....

I HOPE that's all it is.

<knock on wood>

While Conk was one game short of the half for a season, the Wings would have petitioned him on it for all the games he played in the regular season and he would have made it on anyways.

[Vladifan 680]

who is that guy?! is he real or fictional?

I certainly don't know but it's a stupid ad. Not really connected to anything.

[Jwo 7]

This game could have been easily 9 or 10 - 1. You could see the Red Wings were backing off when breaking close to the net when it was 5 - 1.

Quenneville is bitching about the officiating already. First thing he said. Said "they ruined the whole game." Very classy jackass.

worst call in history...lol

[Electrophile 3,554]

Joel complaining about calls.

[selkie 10]

I lost my sekrit playoff injuries decoder ring. Was 'dehydration' supposed to mean knee injury, dislocated shoulder, or ruptured appendix, or does it actually mean dehydration?

[Guest mindfly]

Omg queenville, stay classy... whine whine whine *sighs*

[Systemfel 33]

Quenneville is pathetic.

[TCbrizz 2]

Well that was a fun game to watch...despite Chicago completely falling apart...i've never seen a more immature meltdown like that from an entire team...the players should be ashamed of themselves and their fans should be completely embarrassed.

[P. Marlowe 748]

Poor Joel.

[ChelisChick 174]

You have GOT to be kidding me! Joel blaming the refs for them blowing this game???

:rotflmao:

[#18 the _Hoss_ 2]

Oooooh Q crying about refs !

[puckloo39 5,686]

Finally, double lulz to Brian Campbell being on the ice for the first four goals-- including being hte VERY LAST PLAYER BACK on Hossa's shorty. Seriously, how did he end up so far away from the puck?

AND to Mike Emrick for being hilariously non-neutral half way through the game, saying "It's a shame this [united Center] crowd won't get to see another home game," all but throwing Game 5 to the Wings.

Both items: classic, priceless, and wonderful in the extreme.

[Vladifan 680]

Does anyone else think we've got Chicago off their game? They're so concerned with getting "even" with Kronwall (even though he didn't do anything wrong) that we're completely dominating.

SCOREBOARD. SCOREBOARD.

Yeah, I know...Easy to say after the game!

[Electrophile 3,554]

Quenneville is bitching about the officiating already. First thing he said. Said "they ruined the whole game." Very classy jackass.

I knew he would. Therrien all the f***in' way.

[Mike 0]

Quenneville thinks he started the 3rd shot handed. It was the 2nd period moron.

[EuroTwin 240]

Quenneville you make my ears bleed.

[10 Minute Misconduct 104]

wowo quenville whining more then therrien!

[55fan 5,133]

55 you need to add a red to the bottom of your comments... only have red red white.. Hahaha

sorry , just happy its red!!!

Had to make the bracelet first. Tradition, you know. Bracelet is on. Sig is updated.

I don't have enough red thread for a Cup Win. Good thing it's cheap.

[Vladifan 680]

I love the "I stand by the officials" "would you call it the same way?" "um, I stand by the officials"

I was in the kitchen when that was on, so I only caught part of it, but whatever it was Mike was saying, I loved it!

Right after that was when Milbury said it was the "wimpfication" of hockey. PERfect term.

[Electrophile 3,554]

Jesus Joel, just man up and admit the wheels fell off. Babs would do it.
