    Kovalchuk says he may stay in KHL

    On the surface the KHL is stating they'll honor contracts, underneath they're going to be a sly as possible.

    Visnovsky files NHLPA grievance to void NYI trade

    I wouldn't want to play for NYI either.

    Our D is not going to be as bad as everyone thinks. If anything, we will have an average D Corps.

    Tomas Holmstrom Retires

    For a guy who can't skate and slowly unlearned English during his hockey with Detroit, he had one hell of a career.

    Makes sense GMR. I hadn't thought that this season will be a sprint instead of a marathon. And I agree, with the Brunner signing there was no need for Sammy.

    Great tourney. Too bad XO's ankle didn't hold up for the entire tourney. Anyone still around from this:

Unfortunately, we're still missing a top six forward, and a top four defenseman. Kronwall will have to have a Paul Coffey '95 kind of year. </p></blockquote> You wouldn't keep Brunner and Z together? Interesting.

Brunner and Zata will likely be together as well. I don't see where else to out Gus. What's your take?

    Red Wings official website too equal to others?

    This is correct. NHL wants uniform websites. I remember a year or two ago one of the teams tried suing the league so they could make their website the way they want it.

    Red Wings Alumni Showdown Roster

    Fedorov to finally get his standing ovation that he deserves from Red Wing Faithful. The cheers for Vladdy will be deafening.

    Bouwmeester opinions? Potential trades? *merged*

    We are hurt for DMen so we trade our only defensive DMan for him plus flip and a 1st? I'd do a first and Tatar for him, plus maybe miller or cleary.

    Your thoughts on Sergei Fedorov

    When you're that much better than everyone and you have an off game, you look lazy or complacent. We said the same things about Datsyuk the past couple seasons "He looks tired","he looks disinterested","he looks unDatsyuk like". Bowman and Stevie both stated he was their hardest worker night in and night out. I trust their opinions over fans opinions any day of the week.

    Your thoughts on Sergei Fedorov

    If thats the criteria then a name or two in the rafters right now shouldn't be there.

    Your thoughts on Sergei Fedorov

    One of the best Wings of all-time. He deserves his number in the rafters. A rare rare talent that brought us 3 Stanley Cups. He's the reason I love and follow the Wings.

    March 26th, 1997...The Movie?

    For the record, there are less penalty calls now, than there was pre lockout. Only the first couple years post lockout were there more than 1970-lockout.
  19. XO is better than Sproul. XO will also most likely be on team Canada come the WJHC this winter as well. We have a handful of great offense defensmen and a handful of good defensive defensmen as well.
  20. As someone who watches griffins games and our international bretheren and lives across the street from where the prospects train in TC, I can without a doubt say our pool is that good. We don't have the high quality star player or two, but we have massive quality depth with a slew of high end players. Our last two drafts have been great and the entire hockey world sees it. I'm not worried one bit about our prospects.
  21. All I hear is wah wah wah. I'll be smiling in May when we are in the playoffs yet again.

    Ryan Suter agrees to 13-year, $98-mil deal with Wild

    Well Semin is better than Parise and Carle isn't too bad.......

    Ryan Suter agrees to 13-year, $98-mil deal with Wild

    LOLOLOLOLOL. For bidding more for Suter. You must be kidding. Please tell me you aren't serious.

    Ryan Suter agrees to 13-year, $98-mil deal with Wild

    Well, we tried our hardest. Offered him a massive contract, sent the big guns to his house, and still didn't land him. I blame Parise for talking him into signing with the Wild.

    Suter Watch: Decision today, down to Wings/Wild

    So people were pre bashing Holland stating he must sign Suter. Now the Wings are getting bashed for trying everything possible to get Suter and/or Parise? 7mil cap hit for Suter is a bargain, especially given that at the end of his contract I'm guessing the cap will be 100mil+ or close to it. Get er' done Kenny!
