A A Hockeytown!!!

I love the 2016/17 wings just saying

Assist for Otter

2 minutes for Red Winging

A couple of observations....can I retract my miss the playoffs prediction? Also, Sproul is staying. I think officially XO has become the young D that would be involved in any trade. Nyquist is making Tatar look like he may be the one traded if we deal a forward. Helm looks good again. I'll eat the Helm and Nyquist crow thus far, but as long as I can gloat about my immediate affection of the Vanek signing.

Don't make me come down there and beat some asses...

Very weird bounce that led to what was essentially a 2 on 0 breakaway. I can live with that kind of fluke goals as long as the Wings outplay their opponent.

Vanek in, Sheahan out. I can live with that.

And there was much rejoicing!

I'd even be willing to take back a bad contract like Justin Faulk...

Happy to see this Wings team playing their game against a 'weaker' opponent and not playing down to them. May this trend continue!!

Hmmmmm I wonder where they could get one?

Even if. Due to the cap we'd have to let got one or even two of them for probably nothing or at least far less than what we paid. If Holland tried to sell the farm for that I'd be chiming in the calls for his head. We've won exactly one game only due to our goaltending. And that was the game in New York. The reason for the rest was not only our goaltending. Wings just played good hockey overall.

I do still think we need a legit number one at some point, but I do agree that we're not under near as much pressure to go out and get one immediately with the way we're currently playing. Maybe the price tag for Trouba goes down over the next month (before the December 1st deadline), if Winnipeg continue to play sub par hockey and Cheveldayoff feels a bit of pressure to make a deal... It's extremely foolish to think we need 2 or 3 though, and even more so to think it's even a possibility to trade for 3 top four defensmen...

Happy To See You!

I liked the Preds more when Boris Badenov was behind the bench

Theme song of this forum ?

Go Wings, make it 5 !

At the Joe right now, a lot of Nestrasil jerseys around hahahahah.

Interesting, but I wonder if Khan might be mistaken. In 2013, Zack Boychuk was waived by Pittsburgh on March 5th, and claimed by Nashville. Then on March 21st, Nashville waived him and Carolina re-claimed him. (Carolina had him originally, and waived him on Jan 31st, when Pit claimed him.) That was the lockout season though, so maybe a pro-rated time period. Then in 2015, Mark Arcobello was waived by Nashville on Jan 14th, claimed by Pittsburgh. Waived again on Feb 11th. But he had played 10 games with Pitt. Plus. there's nothing in CBA about it that I can find, though that doesn't mean much. Clear as mud. And after re-reading the CBA, I think I was a little off before. I believe it's if he's waived again, and we are the only team to put in a claim, we could then send him down without waivers within 30 days/10 games of the time we claim him, rather than from the time of the original claim as I said previously.

I'll be there.. My first game of the season.

Hindsight is always 20/20.. 3rd pairing is exactly where Ericsson belongs (and has been playing well so far, imo). Let's keep our foot on the gas! Love the intensity so far this season. LGW!

We already won 4 straight
