His percentage may be off, but yours is even farther off. I think Kronwall has left his feet too much in the past, though he was much better this last season. I'm guessing he took notice that the league had been cracking down. But even when he was leaving his feet, it wasn't anywhere near half the time. He was credited with 113 hits in 2011. There's no way he left his feet 56 times. Raffi Headhunter Torres doesn't even reach those kind of numbers. Kronner would've been called for charging several times and likely been suspended.

Impossible to tell.

I liked him as a Shark. Did we even offer him anything, or does just no one want to sign with Detroit?

...only if he executes an illegal hit. If its legal, the hitee should have to answer to his mommy for not paying attention out there!

I don't think he should have to fight for clean hits, but having said that, I'm really surprised that more teams don't make him...or someone else on the team. The fact that he does it and gets away with it so much is a real surprise. Note: On a positive note, seems like we'll never have to ask this question about Smith.

As long as it is a clean hit, hell no. One of the first things I was told when playing hockey was "KEEP YOUR HEAD UP". If you got your head down and you get blown up it is on you. No one should have to answer for you not paying attention.

Tootoo will be a regular on our 4th line. He isn't gonna be getting almost $2 mil/year to play 40 games.

Why aren't the Wings considered serious contenders? Look at the current defensive corps. Kronwall, White, Quincey, Ericsson, Smith and Kindl. Anything can happen but making predictions based on the current roster I can understand why the Wings are a big question mark. Hopefully players will step up, but even more importantly hopefully no one gets injured. Can you imagine if Kronwall went down with an injury?

Nyquist and Smith are still pretty unknown as to how they can handle a full NHL season so I don't have any problem with their ratings but I would have thought Zetterberg would still be a 90.

From Toronto Star: Like any good pizzeria, Uncle Gary will let it ring a few times; lets people think he's busy.

the next one should read... welcome to 25 years of relevancy anahe...i mean bosto...wait a min, caroli...no...tampa ba, whoever you are.

Mosquitoes suck. Spray the heck out of them. MC Escher or MC Hammer (though a collaboration on a music video would be seriously messed up, wouldn't it?)

I wouldn't mind some talent down here.

I don't know the answer to the op's question, but I wonder how it would work with the KHL given that I'm pretty sure each league has to honor the other's contracts? Anybody know if this would be a problem or no? There are all sorts of streaming sites that you can choose from, and usually they'll have KHL games at least. Plus, I'd imagine if the NHL locked out and all the talent was in other leagues then more international streams would pop up to deal with the demand. Here are a few I use: http://www.thefirstrow.eu/ http://www.vipbox.tv/ http://www.slipstrea...heduleframe.php

Bring back The Motor City Mechanics!!!

Sad way for Homer to retire... I love that man

The real question for me is there any way of getting access to the Swedish and Russian hockey leagues (among others) via internet? Paid or unpaid. Is there a Center Ice package for other leagues? How will I get my hockey fill???

Would you of called L.A. a serious cup contender before last season?

Agree 100% I think the Wings are going to surprise a lot of people this year.
