My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who heard your co-worker's friend is full of crap.

Maybe the minus ticks are because this isn't even a rumor, this is unsubstantiated pap. It's like the beginning of Take It On The Run by REO Speedwagon: "Heard it from a friend who, heard it from a friend who, heard it from another that Hank might be traded for Stephen Weiss." This is less than a rumor.

If Zetterberg's name is in the rumor and the other name is anything short of Ovechkin or Stamkos or Malkin then don't believe your friend's brother's uncle who lives next door to Holland's bastard child's half brother's nephew, who just happens to bank at the same place as Kory Kocur...

1800 call sam. ugliest family ever.

Here's hoping Jimmy gets win number 100!!

Why are you guys such non-believers? I've talked with Jarome Iginla on several occasions over the last six months, and he tells me he'd love to win a Cup before his career is over.

How about Hank for the GWG?

Ok ok, clutch goal, but Datsyuk made the play. I would say it was a clutch stick on the ice more than anything. Even kory kocur would've scored on that pass....clutch redirect!

I've been saying it since the 2010 playoffs, but someone on our team needs to man up to Doan. He always runs our players and acts like some tough dude, instead of acting like a 35 year old man with a broken hip. Babcock needs to call this team out.

Nobody panic; Shero proclaimed that they're making the playoffs. So he must have gotten a call from Bettman or something.

HAHAHAHAHA........I remember my first hit of acid.

Well, I can clear all this up real fast. Hank and I are sorta FWB, so the next time I see him, I'll ask him if he's going anywhere. After he laughs and says he'd never leave me (such a sweetie, that one), I'll say I mean is he leaving the Wings. He'll say no, I'll post it here, and we'll all put this behind us. Done.

Dude, Yzerman just texted me, said he'd give us Stamkos for Ericsson.

...and I was worried that this didn't come from a reliable source.

It should be at Comerica because the major reason for having it at the Big House is for NHL profitability and recognition over the home team's city. Whereas the Winter Classic is a major stage for both the two teams and the NHL, in my opinion, holding the event at the Big House majorly downplays the Red Wings and the city of the Detroit and instead bolsters Ann Arbor, the University of Michigan, and the NHLL. While I would like the fact that my chances of attending would be much greater at the Big House with the 100,000 extra seats, and the fact that viewing the actual game is much better in a football field over a baseball field, think about it - Detroit, the city where the team resides, goes majorly overlooked. The other venue that the owner of the team has control over - goes entirely unused. If you look at past Winter Classics, every single venue used has a connection with the city and the team. EG, Buffalo Sabres play where the Buffalo Bills play. U of M doesn't directly have a connection with the Red Wings in the fact that they do not also house a major professional team of the area. While I think it would be great to have it at the Big House, I agree it should be at Comerica and it would be a departure from the NHL's current Winter Classic formula to have it at the Big House. Why should the city of Ann Arbor, where the majority of the population is college students, several from around the country, be rewarded with the Winter Classic instead of Detroit? I understand that Ann Arbor is really not that far away from Detroit, but to me, this is like holding the Super Bowl at the Big House over Ford Field because it is a grander stage. It just doesn't make sense to me.

Wings have been in the exact same position recently enough for me to not open my mouth about this.

Mule with a clutch goal there.

Trying a Brew Free or Die IPA tonight. Pretty good. Snow is coming down pretty good right now down here.

....and you didn't immediately jam an oyster fork between his eyes? I'd have done a dine-n-dash on him, just because.

That will work too! Just as long as Cleary and Helm remain together. You cannot split apart your best checking line...you just cant! Damn You Babcock!

anything, I mean *anything*, that would make pens fans suffer is a good thing by definition.

Get him while he's down! Kick some dirt in his eyes. Classy.

The cup winner picks last. So I guess that Wilson kid maybe?

who's the guy far left?
