One big old Red Wings post running all the day (and night) long

If the Wings aren't your cup of tea, and we DO have doctor referral slips if they're not, you might wanna come back later tomorrow. Johnny's rules today. We're gonna try to go with one big updated free flowing post of all the fun and moment to moment emotions and superstitions of today. Feel free to post away in comments. We're running with this thread all day unless Ypsilanti or Ann Arbor suddenly blow up or Mt. Ypsilanti erupts.

The Wings, when presented with a chance to eliminate the opponent in the Finals the last three times are 3-0. Hopefully 4-0 tonight.

Could be a banner night

Thought #1-This is the day Gary Bettman dreads most in his miserable life

Thought #2-Hey, it's a Joe Louis standard when the Wings take the ice


Thought #3-Did you know when they watch the game in Birmingham England tonight, they'll be watching Channel 5?

Thought #4-5:40 pm Johnny begins pricing Zetterberg sweaters WITH the Stanley Cup patch in earnest. Could it be that some of his government stimulus check will stimulate the Canadian economy?

Thought #5-Does anybody think this excessive coverage of all things Wings on the local news is bothersome? Normally we'd think that would be the case but after all this area has been through lately, let's be narcissists for an evening and be proud of ourselves.

Thought #6-Must breathe

Pre-game--Goal light, check, squeaky octopus, check. Let's get it on

High Def feed goes out, Johnny gets angry

OK, that sucked. A little rain must fall apparently. Datsyuk will win it.

WHEW, into the humid night it goes. What netminding by this Penguin kid

Looks like the parade will have to wait a few days

Trixie COULD NOT concentrate at work today. Dumbass Pens fan got in my face first thing this morning and I shut him down informing his dumb ass there IS NO WAY the Pens can win two in JLA. NO WAY IN HELL. This guy is the equivalent of the loofah-loving hippie teacher from Beavis & Butthead - says he USED to like the Wings (he went to Albion) but apparently he also started drinking the Kool-Aid around the time of the 2005 draft. I have a Red Wings pencil on my desk that I used all day today and waved in front of dumb ass when I was talking to him. One withering look and he skulked to his desk and away from me. Coolest young chickie who's desk is near mine is from Lansing and she's as excited as I am.

Please feel free to provide suggestions for my first comments to Dumb Ass tomorrow!!!

As to oversaturation of all things Red Wings on the news - HELL NO. Detroit was named the number one shittiest city to live in and the mayor is a CRIMINAL. Red Wings are a BRIGHT SHINING SPOT in that city and for my beloved home state and all proud Michiganders should dig it.

Ozzie's standing on his head, but so is Fleury. Don't worry, the good guys will prevail.
