We're just going to get a guy getting ready to retire signed for one year. That's what I expect.

I forgot about this good point

Why are we still discussing this is there's been no indication he'd be available other than the "cap problems" we predict for almost every team every year that rarely materialize?

How is he "overrated" if he can put up numbers. That argument makes no sense.

Shattenkirk one of the best d in the league? That's just ridiculous Id pass on shattenkirk , yes he can put up numbers but he's really overrated

You missed something.

Would be funny if they named Jeff Carter captain.

Elias

Looked pretty even. Sharks weathered a storm early and pens got a tough goal. I can see this going the distance.

Is there any other kind?

Unplug the PS4/Xbox, put down the controller and walk away slowly.

Z isn't as good anymore so playing with him isn't as awesome as it used to be. Nyquist plays with Tatar who has some of the best possession numbers on the team (better than Zetterberg's) .. Not to mention Nyquist plays against lesser competition more often than not as well. Additionally Abdelkader's ice time also goes towards penalty killing. About 1.5 minutes per game he plays shorthanded. Something Nyquist doesn't do. Even with less ice time, Nyquist managed to take more shots on goal over the course of the year. Yet Abdelkader had 4 game winning goals to Nyquist's 3. No matter how one cuts it. Abdekader makes less money, has about the same points as Nyquist and does more on ice with penalty killing, blocked shots, hits (team leader for hits btw) and fighting. I'd say for all the things I listed, in terms of money the Red Wings management is getting a bigger bang for their buck with Abdelkader's deal compared to Nyquist's deal at the moment.

Wings should hire her as Holland's PR chick
