DMac's fired up:

@D_Mac25: What a f'ing joke - Abby gets 2 games for playing hockey how I grew up playing it. The way it should be (cont) http://t.co/lb1gd0ynkQ

+1,000,000 to the first one to burn their Shanny jersey and post it on youtube....

 

You really don't want me to do that.  My Shanny jersey has the highest win percentage out of all my jerseys...

Shanahan's a figurehead, this is so much bigger than him.  He has no autonomy and is not solely responsible for these decisions.  When he first started, many of us were applauding the consistency of his decisions and how much better he was doing than Campbell.  After a couple months, things started to smell bad and all of a sudden decisions were being made that didn't make a lot of sense.

 

I always go back to the non-suspension on Weber when things like Abby's hit and the Eller situation come up.  If it was truly a "safety issue," then the decisions would be different.  They're not.  It's politics.  And honestly, I'm glad Z didn't play up some phantom injury after the head slam, because lord knows if he'd magically had a concussion Weber might have actually gotten a couple games.  Just shows how much classier a guy like Z is to shrug it off than these other butt wipes who seem to think it's acceptable to be a giant diving poopy diaper pansy.

 

That being said, this whole situation can go f*** itself.  Absolute joke.

And then this:

@reallisa: More Selanne:"It's interesting to see what Shanny's gonna do. He played here too. I think everybody is following close. It's a tough job too

LOL already playing the preemptive "Shanny played here" card...

By the way, Lydman is not currently at the Ducks' practice.

 

:scared: Shocked, I tell you!!

 

Was just coming here to post this.  Apparently he's there, but won't take the ice.  Has "migraine and sore neck."  According to the Ducks' radio color analyst, Lydman "not likely to play anytime soon."

This will not surprise me at all. 

 

If I were Babs, I would sit Abby for the series regardless of what the decision is from Shanny.  Putting Abby back out there would just give Anaheim a righteous "reason" to take out Jimmy or Pasha... like, "the Wings DESERVED this!"   Tell me this couldn't happen with tools like Perry leading the pack?

 

This is the part of this whole scenario that bothers me the most, honestly.  I called it in the GDT right after it happened that they were going to start spouting "possible concussion" nonsense as soon as they could get in front of a microphone in order to infulence discipline.  Sure as s***, immediately postgame we have Boudreau yammering about "oh, he's got a headache, not gonna practice tomorrow."  I've got a headache this morning to, should the bottle of whiskey get supplementary discipline?  I cannot stand the PUNK ASS BABY s***.  Manipulating the system by crying injury after every hard hit, legal or not, to influence discipline is bulls*** and I hate that the league is heading in this direction.  It's bad enough that legitimate injury, like in the Eller case, determines discipline on a clean hit, but when you flop on the ice for an hour after a hit to not only try to draw a penalty, but set the stage for a later suspension?  :nono:

@CraigCustance: Bruce Boudreau said Toni Lydman dealing with a headache right now and doesn't expect him to practice tomorrow.

What did I tell you?

which is a big help, since he shoots his fart-notes out the right side of his ass, much like Brunner and Sammy do

 

I <3 Brunner, but he was definitely first chair in the ass trumpet section tonight.  But so was everyone else, so I'll give the rookie a pass...

 

He gets excited and pees on the carpet sometimes.

And where's the 5th member of our PP unit?

 

You can't see him, he's on the point playing the ass trumpet...

Call me a sucker, but I have never turned off a Wings game until the final buzzer unless I had to. I like to suffer for my team.

Just gonna put this here...

@GriffinsGameDay: Tatar drops the gloves! Squares off with Kampfer and gets the big takedown. That's a Gordie Howe hat trick for Tatar.

Since you all asked so nicely, I will volunteer to punch Perry in his ridiculous face.
