An electric atmosphere in Grand Rapids, Michigan was a fitting environment for an overtime thriller. The Griffins came through facing a potential three games to one hole if Utica scored first in OT. Andreas Athanasion put away the final goal for the home crowd five minutes into the extra period. It was 1-0 us early […]

Griffins Even Conference Finals
Grand Rapids did their job, taking the split in Utica before they head back home. In his Griffins debut, Michigan freshman Dylan Larkin scored our first two goals. Amazing. Teaming up with Teemu is going to be one hell of a ride. The first score came on a Pulkkinen rebound that Larkin deposited into the […]

Griffins Ride Hat Trick
Grand Rapids beat Rockford 5-3 in the opening game at Van Andel Arena. And we can thank the electric Teemu Pulkkinen and his three goals. We scored two minutes into the game and rode a 1-0 lead into the second period. After they tied it, Pulkkinen scored twice in three minutes to make it 3-1 […]
Griffins Storm Back
Down two games to zero in a best of five, Grand Rapids rallied for three straight wins to move on. We got Marchenko back on defense from the Red Wings, plus Teemu Pulkkinen, the leading goal scorer in the AHL playoffs (six). He led the league in goals during the regular season despite splitting time in […]
Nothing You Can Do About That
I can’t believe I watched the referees ruin another playoff game. As Darren Oliver stated after one period of play, “the reffing was atrocious.” Despite outplaying Tampa Bay with many more shots on goal, it stayed 0-0 for two periods. Try sustaining momentum with one dirty team allowed to poke and prod and then the […]
WTF NHL?
AFTER ALL THE HORSE SHIT the Red Wings have took against their goalie, among all the dirtiness Tampa Bay produced, WE GET THE SUSPENSION? That was a perfectly clean hit by Niklas Kronwall. This is a travesty, especially with the way they’ve been acting, undercutting Petr Mrazek’s legs. It was a good hit,” Babcock said. […]
Tale of Two Halves
It’s too bad Detroit dug themselves an early hole, otherwise we’d be celebrating in the Motor City. For now, we’ll wait ’til game seven. We trailed 3-0 after 30 minutes of play, then essentially worked a 2-0 score in our favor the rest of the way. Tampa changed nothing, meaning they stayed dirty once again. […]
Red Wings Blank Lightning for 3-2 Series Lead
Suck a big fat one you dirty ass mother fuckers! Detroit did not lose their composure after a late loss in game four. Instead, they battled Tampa Bay for sixty minutes AND WON. It ’twas 4-0 in the end.
Regroup, Red Wings
My Clippers are in the same boat, and I’m captaining it straight to the second round. Hop in.
Red Wings Claim Game Three
Justin Abdelkader returned from injury just in the nick of time, helping Detroit fight off some dirty play. You wouldn’t guess Stevie Y’s team would be so gay. But, they are. At one point in the third period, they took Petr Mrazek out from under his skates with a slash, and Abdelkader had seen enough. […]
Tough Day for Detroit
Rest up boys. Listen to http://www.dreamingwithjeff.com/ and relax. Have a nice night.
Fuckin’ Red Wings
Petr Mrazek earned the start at goalie in game one of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Grand Rapids Griffin saved 44 shots – a new Red Wings record in a debut. Some of them were impractical, but he still made them. Seven penalties against us put Detroit at a constant disadvantage. Nonetheless, we fought through […]
Good Luck, Red Wings
Remember to fight hard and play together. It’s been a joy watching you skate this season, from the superior leadership at the top to our Grand Rapids Griffins supporting – LET’S GO GET IT!
