PrintSan Jose Sharks at Detroit Red Wings, May 6, 2010 6:30 PM CDT
A virtually insurmountable task faces the Detroit Red Wings. Step one is tonight.
It's Game Four of a Western Conference Semifinal between the Red Wings and the San Jose Sharks, and all San Jose has to do is win one of four to advance.
Meanwhile, Detroit suddenly looks like the Red Wings from mid-January: unable to close out a game, shaky on defense, and hoping beyond hope that their goaltender can keep them in the game.
Faceoff is 7:30 PM ET. The game is on FS Detroit, Comcast Sports Net (California), and TSN. Versus will join the game at the conclusion of the Pittsburgh/Montreal game. Comment away below.

Playoff Beard
I really don’t want to shave tonight..Let’s go Wings!
I'm gonna be honest
I haven’t slept in…..39 hours, and i take absolutely no responsibility for whatever my sleep-deprived self does if the wings lose. I hope that made sense?
GO WINGS!
I will feel real
good if we win tonight.. and then somehow win i sj.. if we get to come home again i will be confident
So say you're not in Detroit....
How do I see the game given VS and the NHL’s decision to compete against itself?
sometimes you can watch on an internet feed
that’s how i do it. I don’t have a link for tonight though- later once more people get here hopefully someone will give you one.
i apologize
if my answer was a little difficult to read. like i said before- sleep deprived.
Hard to get pumped up for this game but...
Definitely looking forward to just watching the guys for what could be the final time this year
if it makes you feel better...
everytime i’ve been negative they’ve won and everytime i’ve been positive they’ve lost haha
for god's sakes
be negative! be negative!
yup
how do you like it?
We wanted to get rid of the pinks so we added some more contrast with the black, grey, white
It looks good to me.
I really only noticed because the comment box color changed. And yeah, I wasn’t too big on the pink.
yeah they home part of the page changed too (like the roster, schedule, etc.)
i’m working on a logo change. Any suggestions?
Aww. I actually love WIM's logo.
I haven’t been around the homepage enough yet, just came straight here. I’ll check it out.
watching house.
they just showed a crosby fathead… i might not be able to what this show anymore
i'm predicting that for the first period
and then the wings stay on pace- 12-3 victory….. that’s realistic

never heard of it
the closest i’ve heard is ‘penalty kill’
And look at Bert
Being all useful like that!
Goals make me happy.
Versus makes me sad.

if you get some free time
you should give it a shot lol
One of my favorite books period.
The movie sucked.

I prefer to enjoy douglas adam’s ridiculously dry humor by reading
Yeah.
It didn’t really work well in film form.

I guess I'm not going anywhere during the first intermission...
…since I cannot for the life of me remember the last two goals.
I have to write the recap, and I’ve found the readers like a little more content than “Then Franzen scored again. Then Franzen scored again.”
"Franzen Scored"
But the scorekeepers took his goal away which angered him and caused him to score 3 straight
then after his first four
he really turned it on
I think I know who I'm getting on my next jersey...

man
i gotta admit, i’m a huge wings fan but i take things so hard, i wasn’t going to watch this game. i checked espn at 2-0, and i think this is a sign from God.
This is the kind of thing Detroit is going to need from ALL their big players
…if they want to win 4 straight.
But damn, when some of these guys get going its SCARY.
Blackhawks bleed Red & White.
We are all Canucks...including Toews, Sharp, Keith, Seabrook, Brian Campbell...need I go on?
So this is what happens when the Sharks aren't flopping around like schoolgirls....
Back off man, I'm a scientist

We're being outshot...
And it’s 4-0… I’m surprised they haven’t pulled Nabokov. Even though those goals were not all his fault, it’s still 4 goals on 7 shots.
maybe it is Karlsson?
if there’s been a chance. I just know Greiss has been the main backup so maybe if he was injured its Karlsson
I don't have a tv
so I’m not watching the game- but is the team stepping up around mule?
Yes.
This is what happens when you practice a little puck possession.

ok guys ....
I have been away for a while while everything goes to hell. I am back but I need some help.
Being in Iowa I am a little disconnected from wings quotes. Somebody please give me some reassurance that the wings can play like banshees with their backs against the wall.

we can’t underestimate the sharks yet. we still got 40 minutes of game to play.

my wife and I take shots on wings goals
…. we just caught up and I am already drunk and she wont shut up about work … lol …. this should be fun!
Where can I find a woman like that?
"Career highlights? I had two. I got an intentional walk from Sandy Koufax and I got out of a rundown against the Mets." - Bob Uecker
I'm kind of hoping the Sharks continue to get some chances...
So they can challenge Howard and he can earn a shut out and get all of his confidence back.
Versus guys are announcing that they did officially change the first goal.

six goals aside,
WHERE has this detroit team been the past few weeks?
apparently it needs to be an elimination game
good news is there’s at least one more of those on the way
the team that looks like its been here before?
i’m not sure. but i missed them dearly
Oh wow.
Habs just took the lead 3-2.

Jeez
I know you guys are trying to make up for screwing the first three games, but this is a little ridiculous
Back off man, I'm a scientist
i wonder how many sharks fans
who just turned on the game glimpsed at the score and then did incredulous double-takes. and then turned off the game right away.
they should keep it going next game
but also keep scoring tonight
not just you
rest the top guys. make sure nobody gets hurt. concentrate on fixing mistakes.
I don't think
That when your team has been diving all series that you should be allowed to accuse other people of doing it
Not having 10 PP to score goals on kinda does that........
Kinda wondering how he got his 25 during the regular season, he only had a couple on the PP.
looks like the wings have played better D to eliminate some of the SJ passing
and fewer pucks finding his stick in the slot
theres a history will be made commercial
for him though. its not as spine-tingling as the datsyuk/Z one though

Yeah, he thought it would be wide.
But he still needed to close the 5-hole.
by ChristineRWBNB on May 6, 2010 8:13 PM CDT up reply actions
he's allowed some soft 5 hole goals
its disappointing
End of Period 2...
…if we didn’t score five goals in the first, I’d be pretty nervous after that period.

holy shit
halak almost scored at the end too. would have been crazy if that banked off the glass just right
who said that?
we would lose. undoubtedly
'flower power'
I wonder how much fleury hates that
I actually think putting in Osgood is a good idea
Howard’s had a good night, why let him get scored on 3 more times?
the war room in toronto
has been studying the rule book, determined to find something wrong with the wings first 3 goals
Hey guys,
I didn’t get to watch any of the ass kickage in the first. How confident do you all really feel about about game five ( if we finish this off, of course.) ?
Truthfully?
I’m just happy to see them win one at home, and not get swept with the final loss coming on home ice. This is what I’ve been asking for all day. A comeback would be awesome but I’m not going to expect anything more than this one game.
It depends which wings game shows up for game 5
Game 7 and Game 4 Wings were in control. Games 1 for both rounds they sucked
PENALTIES AT 3:52
SJ Heatley (2-Holding The Stick)
SJ Thornton (4-Roughing, 10-Misconduct)
DET Holmstrom (2-Roughing)
well, he coulda shoulda had 5 in the book right now
Not that I’m actually watching the game, but meaning that if they hadn’t credited Bert with the icebreaker

Detroit Power Play Tonight: 2/6, 13 shots
Ernie says........
Tonight, San Jose stood like the house by the side of the road and watched this game go by.
Game freaking 5. We are not done.
He also wants Draper to smell nice and be all clean before everyone else.
All these FSD announcers are being weird tonight.
This is starting to get out of hand.
I seriously hope they’re this dilligent about penalties in game five, because the Wings will make these retards spend the entire game in the box.
If this is how we play in elimination games...
I’m glad all the rest of this series is elimination games.

Wow
I wish I could watch the game (live), keeping track on ESPN gamecast (at work). Looks like a lot of penalty mins/fights. I can’t wait to watch on DVR…
Have to watch from Chicago...
…and didn’t get a VS feed until beginning of the third. Did I miss anything?
I attribute this to me not watching.
So far I got to see the 5 on 3 jobbing in the 3rd in game 2, the 3rd period/OT meltdown in game 3, and missed the Mule’s monster 1st period.

LETS GO WINGS!
What a ridiculous win
based on what I’ve only seen from the box score, missed the game. I hope you guys win 3 straight. I want the Hawks(if they get past Vancouver) to have to beat the Wings to get to the Finals. Also, I like to see the Sharks continue their choking streak. Heh.
Does anyone elevate their game more in the postseason than Franzen?
LETS GO REDWINGS!!!
So its still a big hill to climb,but dang if a night like tonight cant keep the redwing spirit flying.
The Sharks lost there composure and acted like a bunch of fing goons ,heres to hoping they choke!
1975 lives on
This was a dominant level-set job in MoTown, if the Sharks aren’t ready Saturdary, a trip back to the Joe could drive the Fin Nation to start second guessing everything. We’re the kind of team that could come back and ice it in 7, we just need to be firing on all cyliders – show me that heart for game 5, and I’ll show you the ’75 Isles….
