Emerick fellates the Red Wings fifth goal with the above quote. The players never heard it. The coaches never heard it.

Jordan Staal didn’t hear it while he was taking over the third period like a pre-Cancer 66. Tanko didn’t hear it when he buried the game winner. Hossa didn’t hear it over the frightening realization that he DIDN’T sign with the team that won for more money.

But to all the fans sitting at home, we heard it. And now we have the rallying cry for the turning point of one of the greatest regular season games in team history. And quite possibly, the moment when this team of vastly talented youngsters turned into a dominant night-in night-out force to be reckoned with.

BTW… I believe that Versus isn’t in the tank for the Wings the same way I buy Kieth Olbermann offering objective coverage of the George W. Bush’s final days in office. “Your hyperbole is a DISGRACE, Mr. Emerick and if you have any shred of decency left in your twisted, venal, corrupt soul you WILL. RESIGN. AT. ONCE. Siiiiiiir!”
