I think I'm just gonna keep posting this: This is the smoking gun we've been waiting for. Unequivocal proof that the DoPS is just a bunch of chimpanzees spinning a wheel of fortune.

How ironic would it be if tomorrow's game goes to overtime and whoever the Defencemen that's replacing Kronwall ends up scoring the game winner?

I just Kronwalled a guy in NHL 15. I'm sure Kronwall will be suspended in the game also.

Holland acquires two, TWO, deadline signings... LGW still finds a way to hate him for it. For reals though, too bad about Cole. Franzen would be nice too, Oh and Kronwall...

Really, I have no indignation left for this League. Well, maybe League is the wrong thing to call them. Maybe this works better:

I think we live in our isolated LGW land forget that the cap world is designed to make good teams worse and bad teams better. We've been able resist this and sustain a playoff bound team. That is a huge accomplishment. I think you have to look at the rise and fall of other teams to appreciate it. I think The Devils are best comparison. They had great success in the 90s and 00s. They were in roughly the same situation with draft picks where they didn't get high draft picks due to this success. Now look at them. The mistakes they've made (Parise, Kovy, etc.) crippled that team. Holland's mistakes (Samuelsson, Hossa, Cleary, Kindl) have been made while still allowing us to have a level of success. Every GM makes mistakes. As for this current series, we've got one game to win it. We've played pretty well on the whole. I think it's important have a reality check for our situation. We had Howard, our starting goalie, lose his s*** half way through the season. 2 major sources for scoring are gone (Franzen, Cole - though Cole was kind of a Mule replacement). We have a huge contract that was supposed to be a significant part of the team sitting in the stands (Weiss). And yet we're in a position to win this series. That's a testament to organizational depth. I think few teams could take those hits and still be the place we are. For Tampa, that would be the equivalent to taking Filppula, Bishop, and Callahan(for Franzen - maybe Killhorn instead) out of their lineup. I also think people need to remember that we are currently a rebuilding team. We weren't expected go the distance this year. This team has had flashes of greatness and definitely shows that we are a team going in the right direction. We have a great stoke pile of prospects could very well be the missing pieces. If you want to blame Holland for his mistakes, you also have to praise him for that. Now, finally, I have to say, WHY ARE WE DOING THIS NOW?!! We have a game 7 tomorrow! The Lightning look very beatable to me. I'm predicting a win. Let wait to assess this season until it's over.

Whatever the outcome, Wings played a great season and an even greater series. We got a game 7 against a stacked team that many consider as a sleeping giant. How great is that ? And :

I want to see another one of these game sevens.... Or at least see whoever is in for Kronner get the game winner. LGW! Petr stands tall and the wings move on.

This is a joke! I am all for player safety and enforcement of suspensions on head shots, but not when its implemented selectively. This one makes me really mad because I think it is going to end our season. I just hope that our other D step up and play the game of their career!

Agreed. It's great that the DoPS is trying to get head shots out of the game. But...if Palat-on-Glendening doesn't warrant a suspension, and Garrison-on-Abdelkader doesn't warrant a suspension, and Wilson-on-Visnovsky doesn't warrant a suspension, and Byfuglien-on-Perry doesn't warrant a suspension, and Kronwall-on-Kucherov does warrant a suspension...has the DoPS really done its job this month? With this decision to suspend Kronwall, have they really helped to make the game any cleaner? Have they really educated anyone? Have any standards or guidelines been made any clearer? Does this set a clear and logical precedent (and was there a precedent for the precedent)?

Punches to the head, elbows to the head, crosschecking a guy in the neck, all ok. A hit that even the other team said was a good hockey hit and not dirty, suspension. Something is wrong here.

I hope that this gets the team so pissed that they'll play out of their mind and demolish TB ... channel the anger and Wings will win.

Kindl is in. Let's see some of the Kindl Fire he's famous for. Please win, Wings.

Tomorrow you'll get an error message saying "due to a reckless hit you're NHL 15 live account has been suspended for the foreseeable future by the order of the NHL Death Squad"

If Cole and Franzen were playing we would've won this series already. Can't really fault Holland for anything this year.

This one is my favourite.

Absolute joke of a suspension. After the Palat hit and the double team on Abs were let go, not to mention the Subban BC two hander that broke a guy's wrist and they suspend this, you've got to say the fix is on. Quintal makes the old Burke wheel of justice seem logical and competent. I hope the Wings come out in game 7 and kick the s*** out of TB, on the scoreboard as well as physically to the point that the Bolts need a M.A.S.H. unit dispatched to Ameli arena. Babcock giving Cooper a stone cold stunner in the handshake line for the finishing touch.

What if we got Johnny Gaudreau??? Hell lets trade for McDavid while we're at it! Oh yeah, forgot, none of these things will ever happen.

Had a feeling he'd get suspended, not because it was deserving of a suspension, but because NHL. Such a joke, hope we can rally around this BS and win tomorrow.

I'm going off on Twitter. I have 4 followers. It's all happening.

After we win tomorrow... I hope Nik kronwalls every Hab into oblivion!
