Ghosts. Goblins are nasty-tempered little bastards. Jim or Jack or Johnny?

So if they want to prevent this from happening again, just add a clause that long-term contracts may not extend to an age beyond 40. Until then, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't care if it is the Hawks. If they got around the Cap and didn't break the rules, good on them.

Beatles by a long shot. Putting it off or getting it done?

Oh, mindfly, you're just as glum as a kilt salesman in Nepal. Nothing positive? My dear... we still have a Norris Trophy winner, a couple of Selke winners, not to mention a finalist (granted one of the winners was a half a decade ago, but he's still a face-off king), several exciting young men making their first regular season appearances. We've got 2 Conn Smythe winners, a goalie who stays cool under playoff pressure, and a fantastic coach. Add to that the King of Crunch, a forward who broke a Gordie Howe record, and a fine workhorse in the person of Danny Cleary and you've got a solid foundation to build on with a lot of hope for the future. And if Lilja returns, it will only be sweeter. They'll have plenty of positive things to talk about. Whether or not they will choose to do so is another story. Give yourself a great big hug and cheer up! The future looks bright for the Wings.

Coal. With improved technology, it is cleaner and safer than ever. Plus ND has enough coal to power the US for something like 800 years and it's mostly sitting untapped. Documentaries or reality shows?

Today I would say French toast. Other days I crave pancakes. Donuts with holes or ones with the jam inside?

No. Not enough food, more expensive than the value menu, and I don't need anything with the Jonas brothers or Hannah Montana. The person below me feels weird when people buy them things unless they are family or close friends in a reciprocal situation.

Moon. I burn easily, and I'm a night person. Telekinesis or leviatation?

So the guy who invented slush sluts will be next? Seriously, that's great. The Zamboni as a part of the game. Just think of how many injuries have been averted and how the speed of the game is much greater with clean, smooth ice. The Zamboni family deserves this honour. It would be nice if Mr. Z could be here to share it, but what a great legacy!

Untill 11:00 pm. Then I have to go to work. (Loo, my friend Joe thinks heads-down pennies are so unlucky that at work he will get a broom and dustpan so he can put them in the bin without touching them so no one else will get the bad luck.) The person below me has the munchies.

Panties. If I were a guy, I'd probably go with briefs. Of course, if I were a guy, I'd have those dangly bits, so perhaps boxers would be more comfortable. Either way, I would not let them hang out of the top of my britches with the crotch of my jeans hanging between my knees like I had just dumped a load of poo in there and needed to change myself. Belt or suspenders?

^^^^THIS^^^^ Read. Comprehend. Rinse. Repeat.

According to what I've read, he thinks that we're the only NHL team he wants to play for (hence arbitration so no one else can make him an offer), but that he has a once-in-a-lifetime offer to play closer to home for a far greater sum with the option to return here if he doesn't like it there. With my great intuitive powers and amazing reading comprehension skills, I take this to mean that he hates us and wants to be a Thrasher and that he thinks that Stevie Y's poo stinks.

Klingons. Fiercely competitive, honourable, and gritty as gravel.

It was about 38 years ago. It's lost some of its novelty since then. The person below me stops to pick up pennies.

That's a wonderful idea, but I'll warn you of a problem I ran into when naming my hamsters: some of the Wings have the same name, but different spellings. You can't use the name once and say it's after both, nor can you just skip one. Might I suggest you narrow it down to a half-dozen or so of your favourites? When I named the hamster I got about 3 or 4 years ago, I decided that I would name after the next player to score a goal with the middle names being those who got the assists, followed by the rest of the players on the ice. Unfortunately, Nik and Nick were both on the ice, and Niklas Nicklas is a stupid name. I gave it to Nick since he is the captain. The hamster ended up with the name Henrik Pavel Tomas Nicklas Dominik. With the hamster I have now, I asked my Godson to pick numbers between 1 and 100 and matched the nearest player number. I kept asking for numbers until the name sounded complete. My new love is Niklas Matthieu Daniel Robert. He's a huge Cleary fan for some reason. Best wishes, and let us know what you decide.

Ouch. I've seen them each once. Um... Pacific. I have a cousin in LA. Electric skillet or frying pan?

Shanny needs to retire and replace Bettman. Aside from the highly valid points above (which have my total agreement), Shanny getting another Cup wouldn't be as dramatic as Drake getting a Cup. Heck, all of the guys who have already won it want another Cup, regardless of where they are playing.

We need Taro Tsujimoto.

Both. I look funny with neither. Jugs or melons?

Mike Grier's agent says he's 'interested' in Red Wings
55fan replied to Drake_Marcus's topic in General
Grier is a good bet for a one-year deal. After that we have a bit more cap space opening up, and we will be losing Maltby. If Grier can prove in his one year that he can take over what Malts used to bring before he got older, then we keep him. This is assuming that we can sign Grier for a reasonably cheap price. If he's not in our range, all of this is pure speculation. What I like about Grier is that he and Malts both really bring it in the playoffs. The 2 together putting it on the line would be killer, even if they're past their primes. Grier playing for a Cup and Malts on his last year, probably headed for retirement, would be highly motivated. -
Chicken salad, please. I hate egg salad. Even though chicken salad is really just very old egg salad. Flipping or flopping?
-
I've never been to either, but I'll say Florida since I have a great aunt who lives there if she hasn't died yet. Being asked something you don't know, or something you don't want to answer?

55fan replied to Drake_Marcus's topic in General
Yes! Grier was #1 on my list of "guys I hope we get". I'm not getting my hopes up because of the salary cap and what he'll probably command, but it's nice to know that he's interested and always lovely to hear people speak highly of the Wings. -
Not to mention that agent jenkins has horrible capitalization and punctuation skills...and there seems to be a very large sperm cell swimming towards him. As far as replacing Hudler goes, I don't think we really will replace him. We won't replace his points, so we'll just have to settle for getting someone who can defend well enough to prevent an equal number of points to what he would have scored. Or something like that.
