"If only this damn cup weren't in the way!" wait, we're not playing the caption this game in this thread?

This kid and a couple others (Ironhook, Jurco, Tatar) are the Wings top 6 future. Can't wait to see them in the winged wheel.

Maybe they can re-sign Kovalev for cheap to and have the laziest line in hockey - Kovalev-Malkin-Jagr

Actually, they do. Can be fined, lose draft picks, or lose contracts, if they don't.

Not a ton of impact players in this drying market... I'm not terribly concerned that it's drying up. Vancouver signed our most likely UFA d-man target. Carolina bummed me out too. I guess Wiz is our last UFA hope. Ehrhoff would be a mistake at the money he wants and White's suddenly a journeyman (which may speak to his true value). At this point it's Wiz or a trade as far as I'm concerned. I don't think it'd be a tragedy to give Smith and Kindl a shot at real mins instead of making a panic signing.

@jonesry28 - Ryan Jones - Edmonton - He tweets a lot @JonathanQuick32- Jonathan Quick @ScottieUpshall @grabs40 - Michael Graebner @PKSubban1 @MCammalleri13 @ovi8 @bssmith7 - Brenden Smith @D_Mac25 - Darren McCarty

Unless its a really low-ball offer, he's going to the Pens I'd say...

Reading between the lines in all this, it sounds as if Bylsma wants Jagr but Shero not so much. I think Jagr takes the Pens offer because it has been his #1 choice all along. If he wanted to be a Red Wing then he would have signed by now. He's been holding out for the Pens all along which is fine by me.

The forwards would be fine. The defense would blow. It pretty much comes down to that.

Smith can't be any worse than Salei or Ericsson

Once you start getting a few its pretty easy, Twitter will suggest otehr accounts and is usually not all that far off. Or you could just pick someones account, like mine(@GS_Brooks13) , and bring up the list of people I follow, as long as you dont mind sorting through the mix of MMA and Hockey people haha.. I also have seen a Twitter "List" that you can follow that has all of the active NHL players who have Twitter. On a side note, just thought I would share the funniest thing I saw on Twitter today.. Ryan Kesler tweeted "How do you get a verified account around here!!???!!! Cmon throw a guy a bone" and someone replied "Win a cup."

@TSNBobMcKenzie @DarrenDreger @Real_ESPNLeBrun You can also look through this list: http://twitter.com/#!/search/NHL

I'll be showing games on my site more frequently now. Only for people who have already registered (sorry).

well somebody better goddamn well say something today, I hate the lies! For the love of christ I want some pieces to the puzzle...

I want back!

semin is not cumming to detroit.... hahaha

Ok for those of you who haven't gotten the Red Wings conspiracy newsletter here's the plan: This summer the Wings sign Stamkos to 8 million dollars a year for 10 years thus sending our next 4 first round draft picks to Tampa Bay. This would be a bad thing if it wasn't for the fact Holland has already planed for this. Next season Lidstrom will retire, in a freak turn of events (and some incriminating pictures taken December at the board of governors meeting by Jiri Hudler with some women he met in Russia and Kevin Lowe. This is why Hudler went to Russia people!) Lowe steps down at the end of next season and Lidstrom coming off of his 5th Stanley Cup and 8th Norris retires. Seeing a job opening in Edmonton he throws his hat in for the job and is hired on site. Edmonton tanks as expected, but, wanting to get assets for the future he and Ken Holland work out a trade. He trades his next 4 first round picks to Detroit for our fourth and fifth rounders, reasoning that because they were Detroit's they must be gold. Thus the Wings get Stamkos, for a pretty fair cap hit and still have first round draft picks every year. Don't tell the rest of the league...

Just wanted to share this since I am just as big of an Eddie Vedder/Pearl Jam fan as I am a Wings fan! It was an amazing show by the way! :]

Seriously, it's as if the Hawks hired Tallon to be hired by the Panthers (as if they had any credibility as a franchise to begin with) so they could unload all of their crap contracts and overrated players. f*** you, Tallon.

Speak for your self (Just kidding I know most Canadians share your view of him, but I'm legitimately saddened by this). Hopefully TSN lazes out a bit this year and just decides to pick up Versus' feed more often than not. Best of luck to you Pierre! You're among the best at what you do and don't let anyone ever convince you otherwise

I'd get that looked at. It can't be good for your upper gastric intestinal tract.

You'd have a better chance of turning the Coyotes into a hockey a hockey team before you could turn the Mets into a baseball team.

I would imagine if there were an existing professional baseball team that wanted to join the league, it would have to change its name if there were an issue. New Yorkers love baseball, right? So let's convert the Rags to a baseball team. Maybe turn the Mets into one too.

cant wait for this kid to be wearing the winged wheel.
