8:45

Games are boring tonight. Beeg and Lubelly asre playing a mean game on Xbox. Detroit (Lubelly) against Nashville (Beeg). Tentative and tight checking in the first.

8:49

The legend Stevie Yzerman just scored. The assist to none other than Manny Legace. Good pass to set Yzerman free on the breakaway.

8:50

Less than a minute later, Beeg ties it up with a gorgeous end-to-end rush by...wait for it...Jordin Tootoo. Yes, that's right. Jordin Tootoo.

That was the end of the first period.

8:51

Great save by Vokoun on Shanahan!

8:53

Two on none for Detroit and Lubelly pulls the trigger with Maltby. Top shelf. Nice goal. 2 -1 Detroit.

8:54

Steve Sullivan to Paul Kariya and the game is all tied up at two. Serious up-and-down hockey and Jim Hughson's voice is getting hoarse.

8:55

David Legwand from Zidlicky and Nashville (Beeg) takes the lead after trailing early in the game. Canonating shots all over the place.

8:56

lubelly here. Phoff has gone to move the car. Close call on the ticket front. Assistant coach Carbonneau with the game saving play.

8:57

He's in the car

8:58

He's backed up by 25 feet and has reached the corner. Phoff likes it in dirty in the corner

8:59

Phoff is back in the building. We think he might be in the elevator.

9:00

I think I hear him in the hall. He scores!

9:02

Phoff here, the game is back on and Lubelly is playing with the wrong controller.

9:03

Ex-Hab Yannic Perreault scores for Nashville and the game is getting out of hand. Lubelly is considering goon tactics.

9:04

Beeg is so dominant that he scored while I was writing the last post. I don't even know who scored. First penalty of the game. Lubelly comes through on his goon promise.

9:06

The Predators PP is quite inept, but they don't want to rub it in, I guess.

9:08

Chris Chelios is even older in the EA Sports version of NHL. Tootoo scores again! This is embarassing, says Lubelly. I agree. 7 - 2 Preds.

9:09

The Wings Score! Zetterberg comes through, but it's a little late. 7 - 3 final score. Shocking.
