Live Blog - Round 3, Game 2 - Detroit 3, Anaheim 4

Welcome again, Ladies & Gentleman. Please sit and enjoy game 2 of the Western Confrence Finals.

Looks like the Wings are counting a lot on Homer to screen pucks from Giguere. At the same time, the Ducks will be counting on former St. Louis foe, Chris Pronger to not get it in the chest with the puck and lose conscienceness. Good Luck.

Game 2 of the Western Confrence Finals up next.

Game On, bitches!
Laptop = Bitch. I shall do my best.

Back in Detroit today. I feel better in Detroit.

It'll be a good day.

Live blog coming up. 13 minutes to 2. see you soon.

FYI - Laptop is being a buttcracker again today. I hope to get this done. Right now my battery is at 1% and won't charge. Game on - Already.

First Period

20:00 FO controlled by: San Jose.

Last week, the game took 15 mintues to start. There are so many empty seats. Its depressing. I'm going to say that people are just late to the game... yeah, thats it.

Detroit did a great job keeping that puck in the San Jose zone.

16:55 Offsides by San Jose.

FO - Detroit... maybe

Detroit likes to come up with the puck from the boards.


Lidstrom gave it away and it was scarily shot on Hasek - who isn't spending a lot of time...

15:05 San Jose scores. Goc. Right past Hasek's foot. Horrible goal.


FO - San Jose

.... a lot of time real far in the net. He stands at the top of the crease and scares me. As it should... I didn't get that sentence typed when Goc scored.

Hasek had to make a sick save at about 13:10.

12:33 - Detroit gets a penalty.

COMMERCIAL

Penalty on Detroit - Hooking on who effin knows

FO - San Fucking Jose

Detroit keeping it fairly cleared out of the zone. 6 times they got it out of the zone.

Shots with 10:30 played is 5-4 on San Jose. San Jose plays better evenly then they do with a man advantage.

8:46 - Stop by Hasek
COMMERCIAL
Steve's bitching

FO - Detroit - Finally


Detroit is doing a horrible job getting it out of their zone. They allow San Jose to just walk that puck in. Its gross. And we can't get it in their zone when we do get it in. It's taken back out almost immediately every time.

Our only shots on net seem to be shot in from the neutral zone.

6:16 - Save by Hasek.
FO - San Jose

Matheiu Schneider is not on the ice or the bench. He's hurt?

Quincey needs to anticipate passes better

COMMERCIAL

So, mama's pissed. My laptop - dead. It's second intermission and i'm sure you'd love to my reactions to the end of that period. Homer will be sitting on a roughing penalty at the end of the second.

Sorry. Wings win 4-1. Woot.

Congratulations.

Rob and Scott Neidermayer (The latter of which is really rather unattractive in the adjacent picture) teamed up last night in the second period of overtime. While Rob put the HARD hit on Jannick Hansen along the boards, the puck squirted out to Scott at the point who shot towards the net - to an unsuspecting Roberto Luongo. Luongo was busy trying to get the attention of the refs - arm up in hopes of getting a penalty on the aformentioned hit - looked back with barely enough time to lower his glove as the puck cleared his pad and hit the netting just inside the left goal post.

The crowd jumped up - cheering loudly - as Luongo looked back into the net before falling to the ice, face first in defeat.. His season was over. All thanks to Neidermayer brothers.

The Anaheim Ducks have won the series 4-1 and they won't know until Monday, at the very earliest, if they'll be playing Detroit or (god forbid) San Jose.

So Congrats to the Ducks - and the Brothers of Neidermayer - for thier defeat against the Vancouver Canucks - one of my least favorite teams.

Live Blog - Round 2, Game 4 - Detroit 3, San Jose 2

Woot! Hockey... for now.

Homer is back - We should have an easier time getting pucks past "Nabby" You know, as long as we can get the pucks TO Nabby. Unfortunately, Hudler is out. He's a little penguin of a guy - and the only Shark that is under 6 foot is the backup goalie. Hudler gets beat up a lot and knocked about by them guys. Can't have that.

See you in 37 minutes... now its 23 minutes

2:02 left in the New Jersey/Ottawa game. New Jersey down by 1. Keeping an eye on Brodeur.

Brodeur pulled, there is 00.2 seconds in the game and a penalty has been called on Ottawa.. Real Smart - dumbasses! They accidently added 20 seconds to the clock, but changed it to 2.4 seconds. I was pissed for a second. And the game is over. Ottawa wins 3-2 and now has a 3-1 lead in the best of 7 series.

Up in 17 minutes? The Detroit Red Wings!

Versus buries the National Anthem.

20:00 - Opening Face off controlled by - San Jose

FUCK - that is retarded. The Sharks fans doing the... i don't know, they open their arms up and open and close them in front, apparently in an attempt to make it look like a sharks mouth opening and closing, but it doesn't because it's arms... If you claw your hand, it looks like the sharks teeth... ya know, i guess. ?

Wings have cleared it twice. 10 left. 5 left Over.

13:53 - Offsides by the sharks.

( i never spell "offsides" correctly the first time.. its always offisdes)

FO - San Jose

11:53 - Score - San Jose. Delayed penalty on someone. Schneider. (But the announcers are usually wrong - i'm sure not this time) Hasek complained, but i think Schneider scored it. The Ref signaled "Goal" but SanJose having to many men on the ice isn't a reviewable play. But was the other ref going to call something? I have NO idea what the eff has happen. Why are they reviewing it. It didn't hit Schneider, it hit Lilja's head. Its a fucking goal, shut the eff up. Oh, Look. Its a goal. I think they just wanted to "review" it so they could sound the fucking horn and hear the crowd cheer again.

oh, I think San Jose won that Face off.

I've got something to do, so i'm going to be away... oh darn.

I DIDN'T BAIL!

My laptop took a shit. I cannot get the battery to charge and i'd be mid sentence and i'd try to close down.

I was working on that, and i missed the first goal - Holmstrom's goal with 4.5 left in the second.

In the third, When Draper was called for Delay of game, i turned it. The refs seemed to want us to lose. So i went on to be busy. Apparently, i shouldn't watch the game, cuz we score when I don't. But its OVERTIME!

WHY is it overtime? because with 34 seconds left, Lang scored to send it to overtime.

Way to score in the closing seconds.

BTW - didn't we win a game in OT last season against the Chicago Blackhawks when with .42 seconds left, we desided it was time to start scoring?

I'm convinced we won't win this one.

Update - Detroit gets a god damned hooking call in overtime. Cock suck refs anyway!

I'm not watching, but cringing and squeezing my head when the crowd and announcers (who also hate detroit) get loud.

Bill Geuren (Sp) took a puck to the mouth. By his own guy. The Fans: "Red Wings Suck"

ASSHOLES!!!

Homer has gone to the lockerroom. Why? He was "flexing" his leg, but he skated hard. I should have checked if the Dr. or the Trainer went with...

SHots are 45 - 26 for the Wings. Of course they are. Why would we want to play a goalie that could let a shot by? Like Brodeur?

Penalty on San Jose for Delay of Game. FUCK YOU SAN JOSE!

FUCK YES!! DETROIT SCORES AND WINS!!! SERIES TIED!!! WOOO FUCKING WHOOOO!!!!

Happy (?) Anniversary

May 1, 2006 - The Detroit Red Wings lose to the Edmonton Oilers in the first round of the playoffs.

Today - we are down 2 games to 1 in the second round against the San Jose Sharks.

Something i've not done in ages - update. SO...

Right now, Buffalo & New York Rangers are tied at 2 games a piece after tonight. Buffalo scored a seemingly goal with about 17 seconds left in the game, but it was ruled a no goal due to insufficiant evidence. The Rangers won, and now they are tied. Buffalo originally went up 2 games to None against the Rangers.

Ottawa is leading their series 2-1. The Devils won game 2, but were shut out in game 3.

Right now, period 3 of game 4 of the Anaheim/Vancouver series is about to play. Vancouver leads the game 2-0, but are down 2 games to 1 in the series.

So, no sweeps for the second round.

Wings - Wednesday at 10 PM. Holmstrom is coming back too. Woot! Let's stop Nabokov from seeing the puck!
