Id still love a Konstantinov jersey! I started off with my first jersey when I was 10, Im from Leaf Nation (less then an hour outside Toronto) and my dad was slightly pissed I jumped ship to the Wings-but he got my Yzerman jersey for christmas none the less. #1: Yzerman- this man made me a wings fan #2: Fedorov- these guys were my one two for many many years #3: Zetterberg- I picked this up after his first playoff appearance. Clearly this kid had that little something extra. I still reallllly want a Datsyuk 2014 winter classic jersey, and am thinking of pulling the trigger on a Seider & Ned duo too. Love these guys

I’m 99.9% certain you’d have a different opinion if you worked in healthcare and took care of patients in the ICU like I have.

Im hoping he hits a hot streak and we can unload him in the midst of it.

People seem to have Zadina on their 2nd or 3rd line for next season.... I'm a well known Zadina realist (aka Zadina hater by the slappies) but I truly believe he'll be delt at the draft possibly with our 1st and other pieces for a 1A/B center to compliment Larkin. It's time to sell on Zadina before his change of scenery (reclamation project) value completely evaporates.

I hate Biden. I don't trust Big Pharma. The left is fear mongering and has taken vaccination way overboard. The right has become wacko conspiracy theorists who care more about personal freedom than public health. I believe in the concept of immunization thru vaccination. It has nothing to do with politics for me.

I buy variants pretty regularly. I have around 25 or so Wings jerseys. Most are blanks, but I do have Yzerman, Lidstrom, Zetterberg, Datsyuk, Howard, Bernier, Larkin, and maybe a Fedorov.

Everything the authorities say or do is political. Sadly. The right are idealogically averse to restrictions and mandates so naturally they protest the loudest when they see they aren’t justified.

I mean sure. I just feel like there is a pretty significant correlation between right and anti-vax and left vs pro-vax, is all. People certainly try to make it a political issue when it shouldn't be. In the end, vaccines should be pushed based on their merit. COVID antibodies that prevent serious illness. Not pushed via fear mongering and bulls*** restrictions.

It is a left vs right thing in terms of the people, 100%. And once again, I straight up said info from the media and government was a crock of s***, as they use fear mongering to push vaccines. Once again, I agree with some points you make. Those who want protection from COVID should get their booster. Much like those who want protection from the flu should get their ******* flu shot. I'll agree that the use of vax passes and s*** to try and enforce vaccines is ******* terrible and useless, considering vaxxed people can still carry. My point is that vaccines are still a great tool for folks who wanna ensure they don't get super sick from this thing. Having said that, the vaccines DID prevent spread initially, as the vaccine was based on the original variant. The spike protein changes with each new variant, which is why they increasingly infect the vaccinated. Of course, the vaccinations still provide antibodies regardless, and they are renewed with each booster. So it's a great thing for those who want it. If folks wanna roll the dice without a vaccine, that should be their choice. There is certainly risk there regardless of fitness and health. Obviously the risk in healthy people is significantly less, but it certainly isn't zero. So get pissed about the bulls*** messaging, absolutely. Get pissed about the restrictions and vax pass bulls*** yes. All these restrictions do at this point is weaken our immune systems to literally everything else, which opens up a whole new world of issues. But the vaccines themselves still do a hell of a lot more good than bad. IT is certainly time to just let people live with the decision they have made in terms of whether or not they got pricked. Roll the boosters into the annual flu shot and call it a day.

What's everyone's sweater collection look like? I feel like mine is semi-odd, though I'm sure some of you R-slurs have much weirder ones. 1st ever jersey: Konstantinov 2nd: Lidstrom 3rd: Larkin 4th: Ty Bertuzzi Pretty much didn't buy any for a long time when I had #5 (cause how can you beat that?). Then the wings tanked after 2009 and I got excited about early Larkin - and Lids was retired - so I got that one. Now there's a 2uzzi sweater waiting for me under the tree.

It certainly would be nice to have a Red Wing killer not killing us.

Here ya go
