About Me:
Big NFL nut. There is nothing better than NFL Sunday. (Or Monday...or Saturday...) If there is an NFL game on, you can bet I'll be watching it or at least trying to watch it. I'm a Colts fan, spent 15 years of my life in the great state of Indiana before moving to Michigan 2 years ago, and it kills me being forced to watch the Lions each week. 49ers are my favorite NFC team, just because as a kid, my favorite player was (and probably still is) Jerry Rice.

I can enjoy most sports. Hockey, in person, is fantastic and may be the best in person. I go to each of Ferris State's College hockey games, and I watch the NHL, although more in the playoffs than regular season. Didn't get in to hockey until I came to Michigan, thus I'm a Wings fan.

I do enjoy baseball, and am a Cubs fan from a long line of Cubs fans in the family. I like basketball, but I ultimately probably enjoy high school ball the best, as it's really the game at it's purest form and how it's meant to be. College football games I do find interesting, but I can't get in to it because I know there won't be a legitimate finale to the season thanks to the worthless BCS.

I do public address announcing for my high school's various sporting events, and have done football, baseball, softball, soccer, wrestling, and basketball. I've also do PA for a club hockey team at Ferris State, and I did color commentary on a local radio station for my high schools' football team (1-9 d'oh!) as well as a few state playoff games.

And...wow I really wrote too much here. The end.

NHL Wrap Around 5-11

Red Wings Take Game Two And 2-0 Series Lead

MrNFL | 6 days ago

Who’s one step closer to hoisting Lord Stanley? The Wrap-Around is your daily update for last nights’ NHL Playoff action.

Red Wings Win Game Two 2-1.

Coming into the game, Johan Franzen was announced to be a scratch due to a concussion. (He'll miss game 3 too) Despite the playoffs' leading goal scorer, Detroit was still able to win. Statistically, Detroit controlled the game, with 34 shots to Dallas' 18, as well as more hits and many more faceoff victories. All of the games' three goals were scored in the first period, in which Detroit took 12 shots to Dallas' 4.

5 and a half minutes in, Dallas had a rare 4-on-1 opportunity. The shot was missed, and Detroit took it and scored. Darren Helm scored his first ever NHL goal to give the Red Wings a 1-0 lead. Later in the period, Dallas would score on a powerplay, as Stephane Robidas scored on a big one-timer. Detroit would match with their own one-timer powerplay goal to reclaim the lead, this one by Henrik Zetterberg.

Both teams would go back and forth in the 2nd and 3rd, but neither would score again, giving Detroit a 2-1 win. Lots of fighting at the end though. Steve Ott with 5 seconds left in the game ripped off Kris Drapers helmet after a faceoffs, earning him a misconduct. Then, as time expired, the back of Chris Osgood's stick caught Mike Ribeiro, and Ribeiro decided to turn around and slash Osgood across the chest with the clock at zero, leading to more fighting. Of course, this stupidity by Ribeiro will probably earn him a suspension.

Detroit leads the series 2-0, and they go to Dallas for game 3 on Monday night.
