9 to 12

A friend asked me today what is 9 to 12? Pull up a chair.....It's a shorthand spoken by the 19 at the blog called Abel to Yzerman. (aka A2Y) Now most of ya know the Rumbear is a Red Wings fan and one of the 19. A point of clarity is in order....I am a Red Wings fan, not a "hockey" fan.

Detroit Red Wings.

20 years consecutive playoff appearances, 11 Stanley Cups. So back to the query....You win Lord Stanley's grail by winning a minimum of 16 games in the 4 rounds of the playoffs. Game #7, second round is Thursday, May 12, 2011. 9 games to the 12th Cup.

Got it? 9 to 12.

Now go watch the video....you may think it is a car commercial. Think again.
