How Game 1 Really Started

Michel Therien, coaching
OK, men. We've got a helluva matchup on our hands, eh? We need to skate hard, hit harder and compete on every shift. Our scorers need to score and our grinders need to grind. Everyone must do their part. It's true, the Red Wings are a more experienced squad. They've been here before. We'ved watched it on TV. They've kissed the Cup, you've kissed your mamas. I don't want to put any pressure on you boys, but our backs are against the wall. It's do or die time.

Marc-Andre, we need a huge game from you. So when we take the ice tonight, you lead us. You set the tone. Don't let us down.

meanwhile out on the ice...

Stinks, don't it.
Woooooo! Wooooooo! I love you Detroit! Keep buying those playoff tickets!
(flings octopus gunk on the ice)

well the octo was to symbolize 8 wins needed for cup.

8 wing= 8 legs

(no one said the detroit school system was producing einstein’s)

so now that you need 16 wins, they need to throw 16 legs on the ice

16 wins= oh, how about the women kris draper did the night before? all the detroit fans from the year before they drafted yzweman?, 18 ex-beatles wives…

SOMETHING other than the octo

16 ex beatle wives. wow i could even get that straight, although perhaps they had one who was legless. not sure, don’t remember any needing to be rehabed…

If I remember right, sometime in the early 90’s some Detroit a$$hat sewed the heads of two octopi together to form a 16 legged beast.

Pure genius.

/or maybe I dreamed it.
//nightmare for sure.
///the horror, the horror, etc.

it would come out to an odd number everytime, thus never able to add up to 16. the one wasn’t leg-less, she had one leg

8 ex beatle wives = 15 legs and a whole lot of nasty slime (mostly from Yoko).

Dude… it’s REALLY hard to run in goalie pads. Those things were built for comfort, not for speed.

You know the Stanley Cup Finals are boring when the most spirited debate around here centers on the number of legs some women have.

they should’ve let Philly win. they wouldn’t be putting up with this shit. Detroit would be getting pounded left and right, and I guarantee they wouldn’t get shut out.

yeah, I remember doing that (waddling at best) in the alley behind your house way back in the day. lol

Haha – that was when we upgraded from old newspapers attached to our legs by duct tape to the first generation of the Mylec street pads – those things, though, were tiny in comparison to the behemoths that I have now.

I wear the same exact RBK pads that Fleury used last season, actually… we even wear the same size. I think that I’m going to try a dead sprint onto the ice next time I’m out and see what happens. I’ll let everyone know how it goes.
