They bent the BJs, Nash, and Mason over and had their way nine different times, 7 different guys. Sure that sounds like a cheesy porn, but tonight it best describes the ass kicking that took place in Columbus.
Despite being down 6 forwards, they once again pulled together to have a solid team effort. When adversity strikes they seem to step up their game. First after Filppula and tonight after the Williams injury.
I have my complete thoughts here. However, if you didn't see the game, below is the quick and dirty. All you really need to know.
- One minute and 5 seconds into the game Cleary scores. Yes he really is a fucking lazy bastard for waiting so long. He must be hanging out with Lebda.
- After Datsyuk nearly King Henry VIII's (yes I'm a nerd) Klesla (luckily he was ok) he scores. 2-0 Detroit
- Brad May loses a fight
- Draper thinks he is Homer and after Helm and Eaves do the hard work he tips in a shot...seriously Draper must be drinking the blood of hockey virgins every night...he thinks he's 31 again this season
- I did not feel at any point during the game that I should beat Howard with a hockey stick. Not even one of the composite sticks that breaks easily...
- Kronwall scores on the PP 4-0 at the end of the first
- Columbus scores 4-1
- Bertuzzi scores. Sure no one thought that was possible and for awhile only Bert was celebrating, but if Gary and his bitches can't find a way to take the goal back it must have really happened. 5-1
- In an effort to keep Bert's ego in check, Leino has the goal of the game less than 2 minutes later. 6-1
- Kronwall scores again 7-1. And no curly fries for you...he didn't make it to three....
- Abdelkader scores 8-1
- Abdelkader scores 9-1.
Fantastic effort all around. Whatever Babcock put in their Wheaties this morning, I hope he does it again tomorrow.
Thursday they meet Sammy and the Canucks at the Joe. I hope they saved some goals because a win would be nice on Steve Yzerman night....just saying....
