Don't know. I'll keep an eye on it.

tonights lineup (Brunner) (Z) (franzen) (cleary) (datsyuk) (abby) (tots) (andersson) (eaves) (miller) (emmerton) (toots) (howie)

Here comes more Cleary hate....

Holland is a broken record. "The powerplay is our enforcer" "We like our team" "Getting our injured guys back is our deadline addition" "Our prospects are overripe in the minors"

...if Cleary is re-signed, frick this team! Talk about taking up a roster space from someone who deserves it...Holland needs to be fired if he re-signs Cleary....period. Say goodbye to Dats if Holland does nothing to make this team better and Dats is stuck playing with garbage like Cleary... $4.5M is fine for Filppula. I don't see why the Wings would say its too much, it's only $1.0M more than his salary is now. In my opinion any lower would be a low-ball. Flip can get $5M on the market easily...

http://kuklaskorner.com/tmr/comments/red-wings-gm-ken-holland-talks-trade-turkey-with-espns-lebrun?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Well, I guess that's the end of that. I could spout off for about 5 pages on this, but I won't I'd rather let you guys take over from here. Suffice it to say, this is one of the only 5 sentences Holland seems capable of saying lately. Anyone who "likes our team" and thinks that "getting healthy players back will be like making trades and will be our deadline additions" is living in La-La Land. This team is far from good enough to even consider such ridiculous inactivity.

He had Pronger in a vulnerable position for a brief moment, but couldn't tee off on him properly.

NOW WE NEED TO KEEP THIS LINE TOGETHER FOREVER!!!!!!!!!

now THAT is Abby's job!

Franzeypoo hustled a little and look what happened

If by "here" you mean behind the Wings' bench, yes. If by "here" you mean LGW, I think you might be mistaken.

Jimmy has been rock solid.

Tootoo seems to be shooting a lot more now.

Huh?

Filppula and Tatar should be in the top 6. Not old man Sammy and old man Bertuzzi. I don't think Cleary and Abdelkader should be on the team, period. We can find cheap crap on the market that puts up similar numbers with similar icetime that those players are getting.

<----- That's Datsyuk.

or maybe gabriel landeskog? replace abby with the water boy, because rumour has it he will be getting top 6 minutes on the ice tonight

Teams can only split salary, not cap hit, under the new CBA.

For me, it's not just about scoring. There's no valid reason he can't skate with the effort that Helm does. There's no reason he can't be checking, hitting, dropping the gloves on occasion, making some good defensive plays, etc. Ditto for Cleary and Franzen. While I wish Helm would cash in more on his chances, you can't fault his effort and what he contributes to the team.

I was amazed on how flat the mule was today... It seemed he was making more mistakes rather than doing the right play. And Ericsson... man, he had one of his best games until that Delay of Game at the end. This should have been a W for Howard.

As a fan of the Jets that lives in Winnipeg, you in no way, shape or form want Hainsey dude. He's worse than Quincey and isn't even worth 2 mil per. I would love Clarkson here, but if Clowe came here i'd uncontrollably vomit until he left again. He's a cheap POS and belongs on the Sharks. and at $5 mil per.... . Keep Franzen instead of that D bag. Flip will get Franzen money. That's the way Kenny works. And as stated above by DSM, there's only a certain number of roster spots open and you're bang on with Clarkson but not the others. He would be perfect here. He plays a lot like Perry, not quite as lethal around the net, but he's way tougher. He would be the linemate that opens up space for Dats and Tatar, not Cleary or Abs. Franzen would also get something in a trade. There's a lot of teams that would take him in a second. Flames, BJ's, Islanders, Sabres, Stars...the list goes on. His value is understated, especially how he's actually been playing quite good this year.

Let Ian White tell you himself.
