Let's say every team knew the Wings were going to have to trade him or put him on waivers, why would they give up assests when they knew they might be able to get him on waivers? If Ritola still was waiver exempt, I'm positive Holland could have gotten at least a late round pick for him. Pshh, no way this happens

Ritola to be waived or traded by Tuesday

I guess me stating I loved the hit wasn't indicative of me enjoying it? All I said was it was a bit low and proved that it was.

And defending two-on-ones

Dear Kindl: Welcome to the third pairing. Sincerely; Management.

Conspiracy!!!!

My guide says FSN and so does our paper.

1.) Meh, I don't think so. Maybe the left side of the line for Abby's hip is a little low. 2.) Above his knees maybe, but doubtful, still below his waist. i.e. still illegal.

We all would, but that will never happen, just like we won't probably ever see Datsyuk get laid out by any of their, or anyone's big guns.

1. Doesn't matter, if a player if hunched over you still can't target his head, same goes for low hits. 2. You can see Abbys hip and it is at his knees. Abby's head is barely at Schenn's hip, let alone Abby's own hip. Plus, logic would dictate it was at his knees since Schenn went end over end. Like I said, I love these hits, and I think they should be legal, but this one was at his knees, or the very least below Schenn's hips, which is illegal in that new rule log. Figured I'd do a quick paint thing to show you can't even argue it was a low hit:

Nice check, I LOVE those! I thought those kind of hit were outlawed in the NHL now, any hipchecks below the waist? It's at hi knees: I love those hits, I think they should be legal. Too bad about the fight though, I give Apple Fritters major props for sticking up for himself even if he lost the fight.

Rookie D, fail.

If Helm were to ever develop a shot, he'd be a potential second liner with ease.

Shouldn't the DET be in Red and White and the TOR should be in Blue and White? Seems Bass Ackwards.

"Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing." - Vince Lombardi "Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all time thing. You don't win once in a while, you don't do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing." - Vince Lombardi If one, if not the greatest coaches of any sport of all-time disagrees with you, then I will have to respectfully disagree . Plus: “We’re going there to win,'' Babcock said. "We’re going to play real good without the puck. We plan on Howie playing good. He’s got to get himself ready for the year. We’ll play as a good five-man unit and we’re going to push them for everything we can.’’

I figured instead of bashing Crosby, i'd attempt to help, this is all I could find: And also:

Lol perfect, i love when guys think they are hard asses and then get droppppped. If Apple Fritters lost any teeth on the crosscheck to the face, i wouldn't be surprised to see them square off =]

Remember how we felt last night, that's how the Leafs will feel tonight with our AHL squad going up. So how could Tatar not get first or second line duties with this squad. Plus, Smith should be in the top four at the very least.

Agreed. Can a mod change the title to "Speculation on my part: ..."

That Toronto second goal is a stupid NHL cheater goal. I guess it works in real life too eh. Our D has to stop leaving men wide open in the slot or crease for those easy goals. It happened all last game and it's happening tonight.

My guess if Huds will be out there with vFlip and Franzen I like him on the point. He has a nice shot and hit the net more often than not. You must remember he is playing hurt right now. It take a longgg time to fully recover from a groin injury.

You're starting to get quite the exciting team up Yonder. vFlip surrounded by Mule AND Ritola??? Holy skilled second line Batman!
