    Quincey re-signed by DET. 2 yr s $4.25 mill AAV

    Hate to say it, but these don't make me feel any better about the signing. He stayed healthy, that is a good thing for our team sure. 3rd in SH time on a team where 4 or maybe 5 D-men play on the SH isn't impressive, especially when the Wings were middle of the pack for killing penalties, and Quincey lead the team with 88 penalty minutes. Not to mention his atrocious 0.13 ppg, compared to his 0.40 ppg with COL/LAK. He flat-out doesn't fit in with this club. That's why he hasn't had the production here that he did with other teams. I really do believe he's hurting Smith as a partner too. Watch whenever Smith wants to jump into the play, Quincey will try to do the same and they'll both get caught out of position.
  2. TSN reporting we signed Kevin Porter for 1 year, no money reported yet. Local guy, not sure what to think about it yet. Edit: My only source so far - http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/feature/?id=25880 Edit 2: Bob McKenzie reporting this is a two-way deal. He split last year between Buffalo and Rochester. Probably a signing to give the kids some competition, let them earn their spots with the big boys.

    New guy, needing help

    You weren't on vacation last month in the ABC islands, were you? I chatted with a guy from Scotland who came up to me because of my Datsyuk jersey (in Curacao, more specifically).

    Jurco Called Up

    His goal last night looked pretty good. Aside from the highlight though I haven't been able to watch him (except for 1 GR game this year). How's his defensive game been?

    10/4 GDT : Red Wings 3 at Hurricanes 2 (OT)

    Not a full 60, but definitely played clutch when it counted. Glad they won tonight, and looking forward to the chemistry continuing to form with the new guys in the lineup.

    10/2 GDT : Sabres 1 at Red Wings 2

    I'll go 3-1 Wings on this one. Weiss gets the 2nd or 3rd goal and Steve Ott tries something stupid.

    Canadian Olympic Jerseys Leaked?

    Add a little glitter and these look like what the USA IceGirls would be wearing (if they were real).

    Yahoo Fantasy Hockey dead?

    I was logging in to Yahoo to revive my fantasy hockey league, when I was met with this page: http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/ If it changes or is deleted, the main contents are as follows: The 2012-2013 season has ended. Thanks for playing and congratulations to all the winners. I've been playing fantasy hockey on Yahoo for years and never have I been denied access to renew my league in August, let alone look at previous stats and the like. This leads me to question, are they taking their time in starting up the new fantasy season - or are they done offering their fantasy hockey services?

    It's time - to predict 2014 Team USA

    For some reason, I see Schneider tearing it up in the regular season and eventually getting the nod for the 3rd spot, with Quick and Howard as 1 and 2, respectively. Miller was great in 2010, but just isn't happy in Buffalo and his play shows it IMO.

    Larry Murphy Fired by FSD

    Minor Bright Spot in Light of a Lockout Fan Contest

    ESPN-KHL Deal in the Works?

    "Fierce Moscow rivals Spartak and CSKA have both fallen foul of the KHL Disciplinary Regulations after the derby on 4th October. Both sets of fans taunted each other throughout the game with chants of an obscene and provocative nature, and the League is to impose disciplinary sanctions on the two clubs." Anyone know what was said? I saw the highlights but don't remember much chanting, and also don't speak Russian (though if someone finds it, my brother can translate).

    New League?

    Aside from the world wide league idea, this all just reminds me of the XFL.

    KHL/Overseas Games

    Ahhhh that sucks, hope it's in the highlights

    KHL/Overseas Games

    It's 1-0 in 2nd intermission, Radulov's brother got the only goal.

    The best players YOU've ever seen...

    Gordie Howe....granted it was for the Detroit Vipers and he only played one shift, but still - it counts.

    Any NHL'ers from your home town?

    Flint, MI - Brian Rolston is the only one I can think of, unless you include Tim Thomas and Ken Morrow - but they're both from Davison.

    2/14 GDT : Stars 1 at Red Wings 3

    Bought them originally on Stubhub. Good thing is they reimbursed me for the cost of them, bad thing is they aren't reissuable due to the seller giving me the hard copies of the ticket or something like that.

    2/14 GDT : Stars 1 at Red Wings 3

    *** I NEED TICKETS FOR TONIGHT *** So I bought 2 tickets to tonight's game for my girlfriend for our first Valentine's Day...and I ended up losing them somehow. So basically i'm scrambling trying to find 2 tickets to tonight's game, anyone have any their willing to part with? Please contact me ASAP if so.

    Weekend Picks: Week 1

    I'm playing the whole friggin season this year, no matter what! And it's kinda funny that this site has the Jets + current logo but still have old logos for Anaheim/Buffalo/etc., even call them the Mighty Ducks still

    NHL Winter Classic 2012

    I'm honestly looking more forward to the 24/7 series than the game itself.

    Washing my Jerseys

    Make sure you turn it inside-out before putting it in the dryer, forgot exactly why (for the crest maybe?) but you're supposed to from what I've heard. Works for me

    I could have made it to the NHL!

    ...if I would have transitioned to Ice hockey instead of stopped playing altogether.
