Game Thread: Red Wings vs. Coyotes Game 7

Detroit Red Wings at Phoenix Coyotes, Apr 27, 2010 8:00 PM CDT


Well, at least the league graciously scheduled this thing at 9:00 PM ET instead of 10:00 or 10:30.

Yes, it's Game Seven. Winner travels to San Jose. Loser makes a tee time.

The game airs on FS Detroit, FS Arizona, Versus, and TSN. Comment away below.

Laughing at that! I was thinking of passing on the live blog but realized I needed the “support group” tonight. Crapola but we’re not supposed to stress during the first round.

the only thing that is calming me

Is listening to baseball on the radio. Early in the season, so a loss is a bummer, but not crushing. :)

I was really hoping for no Game 7

But now that we’re here, please win. I haven’t got any sleep last night, and will probably doing the same tonight preparing for exams. But I’m going to spare some time for the game because I believe this team will deliver. LET’S GO RED WINGS!

I’m very interested to see how the teams come out. I think all the pressure is on Washington, at home, their incredibly regular season, Norris-nominee Mike Green (HAH!), all that talent – and Montreal has already done more than most people thought they were going to in this series.

I don’t believe Versus handles regional coverage. Generally, local teams get all of Round 1, then Versus can pick a game or two per series for exclusivity for Round 2, then they get the Conference Finals and Stanley Cup Finals.

We had a game start at 6:30 in this series

So they are willing to push the earlier games back a little as well

I know, I was like ah, he missed… wait, wtf? that went in!

Me too. I didn’t think it went in. But great shot. Big time play.

That’s what I usually think on Dman breakaways, but Stu… delivered!

by Gander on Apr 27, 2010 9:48 PM CDT up reply actions  

What? Who?

This game is very confusing. Nice that Detroit actually scored some goals in the second period, but why couldn’t the dorks have done this in an earlier game?

They keep pressing until the horn blows at the end of the third.

Mickey York is right

If you didn’t enjoy that, check your pulse

I thought I was going to be blissful when that goal was scored

But I was too confused that Stuart actually did something completely correct.

by Elfuego51 on Apr 27, 2010 9:48 PM CDT reply actions  

I was

So I was wondering, will he make it?

by Gander on Apr 27, 2010 9:49 PM CDT up reply actions  

Is Casey or Petrella around to make an overflow thread?

We’ll need one for the third period. It’s getting sluggish for me.

I was trying to determine if they were booing Howie. He made them so angry with his “lucky” comment.

out of it fine

But don’t boo your own team, people.

Nick is too old?

He could drop his play 5 levels and STILL be one of the best defensmen in the league.

Welcome friend

Good so far. Active thread tonight of course. Great game to be watching together.

Terrible pass by Stempniak there. Guy coming out of the box, and he fires a hard diagonal pass in the air past his pointman for the clear breakaway. May be the Worst pass I’ve seen all year. Terrible, terrible.
