For the first 40 minutes of hockey last night the Wings let the Blue Jackets think they had a chance. Kinda like the slightly overweight girl in your geometry class that you flirted with because she did your homework. But it's all fun and games until you've built up her confidence so much that she asks you to prom and you gotta break her frumpy heart by telling her fuck no. Because as we all know that shit would be straight social suicide. But that's exactly what the Wings did to the Blue Jackets last night. Let them get up 3-1 and start thinking they weren't the 2nd worst team in the Western Conference just before they crushing their valiant effort by going on a god damn scoring spree. With a 3 goal barrage in the span of 76 seconds, 2 from Homer just bangin in front, the Wings snatched back the lead Wednesday night and moved within two points of reaching 100 on the season, a plateau that they have reached the past 9 years under Ken Holland. This win puts them at 98 points on the year and tied for 5th in the west with Nashville. Depending on how the last two games end up, the Wings could still play Chicago, Vancouver, or Phoenix in the first round. I still say give me Chicago or give me death.
Give Me Liberty!
