Just take a knee twice. Don’t even risk a fumble. Give the ball back with 30 seconds to go.

Yeah, why turn a 4th and 2 into a 4th and 15.

I swear after the latest Lions’ 1st down I said this reminds me of how easily the Lions were moving against the Commanders early. And two plays later …another reminder.

Hmm, this jersey choice would hardly inspire confidence for Toronto sports fans before a Game 7

I’m still getting used to the broadcast crews calling the Wings’ young players by their full names instead of the initials we’ve grown accustomed to referring to them as, lol

I remember when Ernie was fired in 1991 and my grandfather, who was 77 at the time, said he understood the decision. He figured management’s view was that a legend like Ernie wouldn’t necessarily have the same nostalgic appeal to teens and that replacing him and Carey with Rizzs and Rathbun was aimed at a modern audience. Rizzs and Rathbun were both in their late 30s at the time. By the way, as some probably know, Rizzs is still active as the Mariners’ radio play by play man.

Just before the empty netter, how did Draisaitl get so open and then how did he overskate it, lol.

Impressive win. Oilers had only 18 shots on net. 2 goals and 4 points for Larkin. 2 goals for Finnie.

11 minutes without a whistle since the Edmonton goal with 12:27 to go ends in a Wings ENG with 1:22 to go. That should do it.

Edmonton made it 3-2 with 12:27 to go. Hasn’t been a whistle since and there is now just 3:30 to play.

Now Larkin too throws one at the net and it too sneaks in. 3-1 late in the 2nd.

Oilers get it right back on a seeing eye shot thrown from the point.

Emmitt Finnie is an NHL goal-scorer!

Larkin opens the scoring and then the Wings kill off a penalty immediately afterwards.

Scoreless against Edmonton after 1. Wings limited the Oilers to 3 shots on goal. Not a lot of offense for the Wings but did have a few odd man breaks.

I wonder if things would have played out differently for the Tigers if Beltran had cleared the bases.

My daughter was in chamber choir throughout high school at her all-girls' school. 7am practices 4 days per week were hard for teens that time of day, but meant that teachers and students coming to school were greeted by the sounds of angels.

Larkin wins it on a breakaway!

Wings will get at least a point. Off to OT.

I generally like him. But these playoffs he has been animated on every little single by a Jays hitter or strikeout by a Jays pitcher. Buck Martinez on the other hand, he must have the worst voice in baseball broadcasting.

Lightning finally tie it with 3:45 to go. It had been coming for a few minutes.

Gibson makes some big saves in quick succession. Still 1-0, 7 minutes to go.

After he struck out the side in the top of the inning to boot!

The fly ball looked deep to me right off the bat so I didn't understand why the announcer was calling it in a flat monotone as it got closer to the wall. Then I remember I was watching the Jays feed. Quite the contrast.
