To The Residents of New York....YOU'RE GONNA LOSE!

[Darth Garden Gnome]

In approx. 1hr 45min, the 2nd to last game (for the Wings, anywho) of the pre-playoff season begins. For the uninformed it happens to be the Red Wings versus the New York Islanders at the Joe. I'm ready to claim victory as we speak, but I'll lay down some stats so ya'll can get a good idea of how poorly outmatched the Islanders are:

Wings are 2nd in the league (Ottawa and Dallas tied for first). The Islanders are eight, thats right EIGHT. Although both teams have played 79 games, the Wings have won 47 to the Islanders 45, the they both have twenty OUT of overtime, and the Wings have one more tie.

But heres the biggy. NY suffers six overtime losses to the Wings' three. Double! Ha! Expect to see plenty of overtime carnage, need the game last that long (it probably won't, considering in the Nashville game we scored three goals in the last eight minutes).

So I suggest you worry, and worry much New Yorkers. Despite the fact that we WON'T be seeing you in the Playoffs, your going to suffer one last shameful defeat here. And be on the lookout for more Cup Craziness (yes I know, freakishly clever) from yours truly. I'm watching this year like a hawk. And lastly: *slapshots puck into Dalton's face*

HA! I'm out, keep ya updated as the game goes by.

LETS GO WINGS!

Despite the fact that we WON'T be seeing you in the Playoffs

That's because Detroit will be bowing out in the first round!

I'm with Fgalkin.

Is this some kind of neighborhood dodgeball tournament, or something?

[Beowulf]

WTF is this about?

and who cares?

[Raptor 597]

Its hockey. Now all people ignorant of this will be thrown into a crowd of drunk hockey fans with sharp metal pointy things. Thats why you should care.

BLEHEHEHEHE! This has to betheworst show of hockeymenship(?) I have ever had brought before me since the Avs were massacered in game seven of the Playoffs last year. Seven minutes into the game, the Wings have only made two shots on goal, and guess how many goals they have? TWO!!!

Meanwhile teh Islanders have made five shots on goal, and accomplished nothing! I don't even know why I continue to watch this one.

Too bad I only watch hockey for the fights

*piledrives the Gnome*

CURSES! No, be jealous, be angry! Your team is getting mutilated out there, yell at me or something so I can laugh at the futility! Damn, any other NYers wanna fight?

To all others: I'm talking about hockey. Y'know, Canada's pastime, which is actually Michigan's pastime? I'd thought that you'd recognize the phrase "Red Wings" at least, we only won the Cup last year. Sheesh.

[Dalton]

Uh...DAMN YOU WINGS!!

[Darth Garden Gnome]

Uh...DAMN YOU WINGS!!

Ah yes, I now feel supremely arrogant. Thank you, losing New Yorker!

[Darth Garden Gnome]

UPDATE

For all of you who don't seem to care (but I'm going to tell anyways) the Wings have pretty much shut down the Islanders by now. End of the first period, Wings lead 3-1. I'm shutting this thing off, too pathetic.

This has been part of the ongoing campaign by DGG to promote the Red Wings in all their glory. Surrender cowards who oppose us! Yoru efforts are futile! DGG out.

FEAR THE WINGS!

[Utsanomiko]

Hockey, are you serrious?

I was going to pick that as a joke assumption, but I thought I might be on the mark with Dodgeball, and just make Baseball my second guess.

Anyways... bleh. Wake me when Rollerball starts.
