Nice! Brian has definitely earned this with his consistent solid defensive play. And I guess putting the puck in the net a few times doesn't hurt either. Now it's time to sign Brunner to a 5-6 year extension!!

Has no idea what he's talking about

........ummm...no.

Dumbest thing posted in a long time. Ericsson has been very solid this season

The bowl was probably already damaged from the Kronner-Havlat hit and this goal just finished it off.

^Yeah cause 19th overall defensemen who have good NHL experience usually get sent packing for nothing. Like I said before we undervalue him but our narrow mindedness keeps us from realizing we're just a few guys on forums, the hockey world doesn't agree.

Your poltergeist was afraid of getting Kronwalled and displayed it's displeasure on your glassware. So uh.. you gonna finish that chicken?

Last nights whining from Canucks fans has inspired a new GDT for me. Hockeytown0001 already does a fantastic job with them here so mine won't be necessary, but here is the header, which I'll add the rosters/stats and standings to.

Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC II: BOS/BUF/DET/FLA/MON/OTT/TB/TOR Please let this happen.

As pessimistic an atmosphere as this forum can have at times, it has absolutely nothing on the Wings' HFBoards subforum in that category. The majority of posters over there are acting as if this signing means the end of the world. My personal favorite: I like the signing. $725K is well worth it for a solid bottom-pairing defenseman, and Lashoff still has room for improvement.

Quincey with that hairdo looks like Patrick Dempsey... oh Dr. McDreamy!

Good news. Now lock up Brunner.

I'm wondering if the AL Wild Cards are going to come out of the Central and West? Toronto, Baltimore, TB, and Boston could finish 10 games within each other (I still think the Yankees will win the division), meaning Chicago, Oakland, and Texas may battle for the two Wild Cards. Chicago has all those games against Cleveland, Minnesota, and KC, while Oakland and Texas play against Seattle and Houston. There's no easy games in the East.

Good thing the rest of the hockey world doesn't think of Kindl this way. There's a world of difference between the two. Mursak was a 6th round pick. Kindl was 19th overall. Mursak really showed nothing in the NHL. Kindl minus our huge expectations has shown he can play in this league and do well from time to time. He's in a position that is tougher to come across, with a higher upside. And he's not going back to the AHL. If he's not playing for the Wings, he's playing for another NHL team. He's got trade value no matter how much we rag on him. There will be a GM or two out there willing to take a chance on a former first round pick on defense who looks like he just needs a change of scenary. Worse guys have gotten something in return.

I do it every year....and its as pleasant as you say it is. My wife and I were walking to our seats a couple years ago before the game started and as we moved into our row, we were greeted with "f*** You, f*** You, f*** You." Drives me nuts that I'll never be able to take my daughter there simply because I won't expose her to an environment like that.

Walking Dead time soon. Good day today

That USA chant was kinda embarrassing. I think Vancouver has more USA born players than us lol.

I love how BladeBrunner always looks happy like a little kid every time he scores

Nice to see Tootoo was at least ONE signing that Holland did right! Slap all of you who hated it!

Those Selkes, Byngs and Cups would help him get in. As would his reputation as being one of the most unique players of all time. Definitely think he'd get in even if he leaves after next year. Point totals aren't everything.

Ever since the lockout I swear it was known that the Winter Classic was still going to be at the Big House, just the following year. I have zero idea why people act surprised or expected anything different. I hope they still do 24/7 though, unfortunately we don't have homer.

$4 million for a 30 goal scorer? Thats a steal for any team
