Thanks for the link. Lots of interesting reading there. The one that stuck out for me was +/- in the playoffs: 1. Nicklas Lidstrom, +53 2. Chris Chelios, +48 3. Chris Pronger, +43 Brian Rafalski, +43 5. Johan Franzen, +37 6. Henrik Zetterberg, +35 7. Tomas Holmstrom, +26 8. Daniel Cleary, +24 Chris Drury, +24 10. Mikael Samuelsson, +23 11. Sidney Crosby, +22 Pavel Datsyuk, +22 Niklas Kronwall, +22 Sean O'Donnell, +22 15. Jay McKee, +20 Lots of Wings on that list!

The only thing I hate about Mike Modano is he dives way too much. He also complains about proper calls all the time, it gets really annoying after awhile. He has a "crybaby" reputation and he has deserved it, with that said he is still a very talented player. It's sort of a trade off with this guy. If you're willing to put up with his downside then you will surely enjoy his upside.

I miss Samuelsson. The guy was clutch.

I think Rafi can foresee the future. He knew he would suck after a couple years in Detroit so he made sure he got that NTC.

People value players differently. In my eyes Stuart is way more valuable to this team than some think. He IS our 2nd best D-man most of the time. Wis can hit and fight but we don't need it. We also do not need an aging Marchant. He would just be adding something to this team that we already have a surplus on which is age. If he wasn't any good we would never have got him in the first place.

If the Blackhawks were a human body they've managed to keep their heart and brain, but they've lost some limbs and definitely their balls.

what fans? I'm thinking that everybody jumps off the bandwagon and sell outs are a thing of the past. hahahahhahahaha This is great! If the goal was to win ONE cup and the go back to being an also ran then yes, they suceeded just like Tampa and Carolina. If the goal is to be have a shot at the Cup every year like their big brothers in Detroit, then they failed miserably... Last one out, turn off the lights. The party is over. Why on earth would he want to stay? Everybody else is leaving?

Oh... it's an enforcer thing. I get it now. Going back to the real Modano thread.

Behind Nick Stuart is are best D-Man so no thanks.

Mike...you're breaking my balls here :/ Detroit can only wait for so long for him to decide, if he takes many more days maybe it's time for a planB, plenty of money for a 3rd line tough grinder, 6th D and lock up abdelkader, helm etc

I would love to watch that.....and you should too.

Where are all the Hawks fans? WE STOLL GOTZ THE CUP LOLZ! DETROIT SUX!

It's not reasoning and it's not logic. It's simply an observation of fact. Chicago won the Stanley Cup by way of Vancouver and San Jose, not thru Detroit. That's all he's saying. Why are you so sensitive to it? And too bad all the Chicago fans are back to watching baseball like usual so you have no one to talk hockey with except the real hockey fans of the Detroit Red Wings.

Yer FACE is stoopid. esteef

Like I said before, Chicago won the Cup, but they didn't beat us to get it. esteef

I think the Flyers are going for a 22 man roster comprised ENTIRELY of goaltenders. Interesting strategy, but they could be on to something.

actually smart guy who thinks he knows everything, if you did you would know that Ryan got offered 5yrs and that was the problem the 5-6mill is fine he and his agent have said he wants a 2-3 yr deal with the Ducks not a long term one.

How about Chris Osgood for Ian Laperriere? Or Chris Osgood/Danny Cleary for Scott Hartnell?

Flyers not looking for a Goalie for Gagne... (E3) "They are trying to trade Gagne in order to bring in another forward... " - Eklund

Well he went to ND so you know he is a stuck up ass. If the wings offered him a two way minmum conract it would suprise me. There is no way we wanted him back.

Lebda is a Notre Dame Fightin ***** and I thought he always will be a depth defensemen. Good luck with that one, ass. Also, my buddies were at Cheli's when Lebda dropped the Cup and dented it. That is not a rumor. It's true. Photographic evidence to come once I find it on Facebook..

Isn't Martin Erat a career Predator too?Not suggesting he should be captain,just saying.

I love how people are bitching at Modano and don't want him to come because he's thinking about not coming. How petty and ridiculous. This is probably the hardest decision he's had to make in a long time. He's been with one organization for over 20 years and is thinking about doing something he's never done in joining a new team. You're like a bunch of 5 years old who don't get the most expensive present they want at their birthday party. What a horrible person for thinking it through and wanting to make the right decision. /s
