Kicking Game Five news off early with the announcement that Tomas Holmstrom says he'll play Monday night.

Chris Chelios doesn't expect to play.

Ansar Khan (among others) has the news.

Eleven hours until the start of the game and my nerves are shot already. I'm confident. I don't see the Penguins having anything left to throw at the Wings.

I'm with you I think the Penguins last gas was the 5 on 3 they didn't convert on, I hope we are right, more excited than anything right now can't wait to see what the atmosphere is like!

With fitch on his way down to pick me up, this'll be my last big post before getting out of the game. Win or lose, I'm hoping to post some updates on my way home.

I'll check in as I can with notes from the Joe. For the most part, I'll be trying to take it in, 'cause this has the potential to be the coolest thing I've ever seen.

See you guys after the game.

Looks like I'll be doing the goals and in-period stuff then on my own. I'm getting excited about the game already.

[YzerFan19]

We're in the arena (well, I am, fitch is outside drinking). Crazy in here, just buzzing.

[YzerFan19]

Four octopi for four wins!

[Britishwingsfan]

Early powerplay opportunity.

[klaitinen]

You'd think the best hockey league in the world would have the best refs. That penalty call on Datsyuk is horrendous.

[Britishwingsfan]

Bullsh*t call on Datsyuk.

[Britishwingsfan]

What the f*ck? Oh sh*t.

[Britishwingsfan]

Oh my f*cking god! Kronwall with an own goal. What's going on here?

[Britishwingsfan]

The wings dominated most of that period. What the hell?

[YzerFan19]

Nervous now. And the people behind me are wasted.

[Britishwingsfan]

YESSSSS!!!!!!! HELM!

[Britishwingsfan]

Finally a powerplay for the wings!

[Britishwingsfan]

f*cking hell Fleury. How did that stay out? Argh!

[Britishwingsfan]

Great check by the ref, then Malone takes it in the face.

[YzerFan19]

Better, still not enough. Came close though and playing better defense.

[Britishwingsfan]

Off the f*cking crossbar! Thought it was a goal.
