Overtime.

So far today Moody has held a record that lasted about an hour for longest Super Bowl FG ever, then missed an extra point. Pretty good chance he will be asked to attempt a FG to break a tie inside of two minutes in regulation.

24 points by the Lions in one half against these Niners looks impressive.

Chiefs have done absolutely nothing except for one big play that was immediately followed by a fumble. Lucky to be down only 3-0.

Yep, just showed Joe Montana ramping up the crowd. And I’m thinking it could have been the NFC championship game’s other honorary captain instead, Barry Sanders.

The Lions will make two Super Bowls by the year 2030.

Speaking of suspensions, Morgan Reilly should absolutely get the 6 games Perron got. The crosscheck was just as bad, and reacting to a hot dog play is worse than reacting to a hit that injured the captain. I bet Reilly will onk6 get 2 or 3 though

For sure. The Sprong pickup is looking pretty good too.

Penalty shot in OT! And Walman buries it and does the Gritty!

Nice fightback for at least a point.

Wings tend to have lousy 2nd periods and good 3rd periods. Including today. 3-3.

What a disaster. Wings show little on 7 straight powerplay minutes, then Hronek scores getting out of the box

What a waste of a 5 minute major. Best chance was the Canucks on a 2 on 1. Now another 2 minutes after a high sticking

And the Wings basically replaced his offensive production with Gostisbehere, who has 32 points in 49 games. Hronek had 36 in 51 before today.

Hronek assisted on the tying goal moments ago. Had been scoreless in past 9 games going into today.

I think it's time for DeBrincat to start scoring. 18g-25a-43 pts in 50 games, but front-loaded.

Game day! Finally. 10am Vancouver time, with the Wings hosting the Canucks.

Luck may have caused the Lions to lose all of the 17 point lead so suddenly in the 3rd quarter. But luck isn't what lost them the game. If the Lions are good enough to outscore the Niners by 17 points on the road in one half (imagine how angry Niners fans were at halftime for "coming out so unprepared for a huge game at home to be boatraced by an inferior opponent"), a desperate Niners team was good enough to outscore the Lions by 17 points over the course of a full half. The only real luck I see during the Niners comeback is the Aiyuk catch. The first 4th down drop, the Gibbs fumble, the second Reynolds drop, failing to down the punt at the 1, the 1st down throw into the endzone going through Jamo's hands, Purdy scrambling on 3rd and 4 with 5 minutes to go ... all that is down to skill/execution or lack of.

I really think the Wings have a shot at finishing ahead of the Leafs.that’s not just my considerable bias talking The Wings probably have had a better season to date.

Oilers going for what would be an NHL-record 17th straight win tonight. But trail Vegas 2-1 early in the 3rd.

No Wings game until Saturday?! C'mon, what a momentum killer. 2 week gap between NFL games, March Madness a month away, no spring training for baseball quite yet. This would have been a great week to fill the void with a bunch of NHL games.

I’ve never been a Joni Mitchell fan apart from Blue, but that’s an incredible song. It was played at the Closing Ceremonies of the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver and also appears in Love Actually, so a couple of other places young people were exposed to it. Why did I think Tracy Chapman died last year?

RIP Wayne Kramer

NHL back to the Olympics for 2026 (Italy) and 2030 (France?). Good move. https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2024/02/02/nhl-players-to-return-to-olympics-in-2026-and-2030/
