Lack of production isn't the problem. Lack of commitment to team defense is.

I bet Hudler passes when he's on the shooting range.

No trades. This is the reason we over ripen players. Guys like Kindl, Mursak, and Tatar would already be on active rosters elsewhere. Their job right now is to step up and fill the gap. Something they've been prepared to do. We have guys like Helm, and Eaves stepping up and fulfilling the roles designated to them. If anything, you guys who go into panic mode and scream, "Trade! Trade! Trade!" illustrate why the Detroit Red Wings are superior to every team in terms of management and preparedness. They don't need to, and don't hit the panic button when the chips are down. They are the pinnacle of professionalism in sports, and a benchmark f how to run any organization. So in closing to the Doomsayers, Sit back, relax tonight and watch the game. Then come on LGW and post in the Tatar/Eaves/Helm watch threads about how the Wings have found diamonds in the rough.

LUONGO, YOU ******* DIVER.

He never buys shots at the bar either.

No s***. Where are all the Crosby defenders now? He's a ***** who thinks he should be untouchable, plain and simple. esteef

To quote Andy Bernard - "Well then maybe you should look in the smart part of your brain."

Makes you long for the days of Jiri Fischer putting him through the glass, doesn't it? Well, hope Cloutier.... I mean, Luongo is enjoying his SHUT OUT!! shutoutshutoutshutout

And here I was hoping Steckel's hit might have knocked some sense into him. I don't think in all the years I've been watching hockey, I've seen such an entitled, whiny, pusillanimous individual as Sidney Crosby. It really and truly boggles my mind.

I ******* hate basketball. This 5 minute overtime damn near takes as long as an entire period. HOLY f*** ANOTHER TIMEOUT

How can I be wrong on a hypothetical example? And are you really suggesting that never has there been a beatdown after a borderline hit? Then you sir are wrong. And for the record, I didn't "label" you as anything. esteef

We've won our last 5 road games in a row. s***... we need to make a deal NOW! And Hudler isn't an 'experiment'. He's a prospect that has come up through the system.

as holland said last year "getting our players back will be our trade deadline movement" or whatever the f*** he said.

:rotflmao:

And your examples are just more chances for the non-enforcer crowd to say "See, what did we tell you." There are examples on both sides. I prefer the beatdown, and in this case, don't stop punching just because Kostopoulos may fall to the ice. esteef

A blindside elbow to the head is not something that is part of the game, but I'm sure our 2 minute PP really got Kostopolous thinking about his actions Even the small suspensiion he"l get if he gets one, he'll still be out there doing the exact same s***

He's OUTSIDE THE CREASE. That's bulls***.

Feed. The. Mule.

Pens lost 0-4 to the Wild without Pube-stachio. Perhaps they've forgotten how to play, since they spend all their time on the ice feeding him the puck.

Esteef, What happened when Jody Shelley boarded McQuaid earlier this year, was he taken out in an ambulance? No, the officials walked him away, no one did a thing to him. Your over generalizations while comical are not true! What happened after Cooke cleaned Savard's clock, or when Bergeroen was boarded? Would I have liked to see dents put into TK's face by a guy like Mac, sure, but that does not add validation to your statement. Just another chance for the enforcer crowd to jump up and scream: "See, what did we tell you!"

That vid reminds me of the Calgary franchise. Get outclassed in every way, get mad, then throw a fit about it and not get anything positive done from it.

Hit his head too hard on the headboard while Bettman was coming from behind Sad way to get injured
