long time no post...but this is the perfect occasion to make my comeback! let's go wings!

Justin.tv Red Wings vs. Thrashers live stream Found one! Go Wings! Hossa's goal was beauty!!

Link for a live stream anyone?

Cute. I love how they played the Hives for that. Go SWEDEN!

YAY! I was thinking about this yesterday, because him and Danny are supposedly friends, "would Hossa come here for just one year?" THANK YOU KENNY!!!!!

WOOT!

Good! Hate on haters...hate on! He is a very solid depth guy and the Wings would still be fine if he has to play in the #2 pairing. Remember, they didn't acquire Stewie until late in the season so it's not like the Wings will be absolutely devastated if he doesn't resign (even though I hope he does resign). Hopefully one of the rookies can step up in training camp and make things interesting. I really want them to attempt to convert Meech to forward so they can keep him. I like him better than Kopecky, although Kopay was getting slightly better right before his injury.

I tried to defend Sammy on HFboards, but I've come to the conclusion that a lot of people just NEED somebody to hate. With Lang gone, poor Sammy and Lilja are filling his shoes. The difference being, Sammy and Lilja are NOT Lazy. They may "suck" at times but they try and play hard and play for the team so I could never really hate them. I think Lilja is a great 6th defencemen, much much better than what most teams have on a 3rd pairing. I think Sammy is responsible defensively and pretty versatile. Do I think he belongs manning the point on the 2nd pp? Definitely not, but it's not Sammy's fault he's there. I'll admit I did curse his name more than a few times over the year, but that was mostly when he was on the pp, take him off and I doubt I say many negative things about him at all. Can't we go back to hating Lang, that was much more fun and something I actually support whole-heartedly!

Well, they're probably regretting all the drama from the past and want to be able to do business with Detroit. Surprised about the goalie selection, but the announcers are right. Regardless of who they picked it's not like we'll see them for another 4-5 years.

Seriously?

Are you referring to the bit about "My reign is short now"? I think he is referencing his physical play during the SCF. He is suggesting that voters may not see him as so gentlemanly because he hit Gary Roberts in the face. IMO he still is a gentleman because he was totally playing within the rules. That said, if Lidstrom doesn't somehow win at least ONE Lady Byng in his career I don't know what is wrong with the world. Lidstrom is the definition of Lady Byng, which I think is a very honorable award and any player winning it should be very proud. They also get money for winning it so even better!

I thought this thread was going to be about something else when I read Filppula and closet in the title, but it really IS about Filppula's closets... redwingsfan04: Do you have a faux hawk or any type of Euro-fashion mullet? Do you carry a murse? The closet is just one thing, but ask yourself about the others. If you answer 'yes' to more than one....well...I'm not here to judge you or anything...

Isn't Cleary friends with Hossa or something? Call him up Danny Boy!

lol, you crack me up. Where were you during all the Wings' games? I can just imagine, to the left skates Datsyuk in rather baggy shorts which do little to accentuate his backside. The jersey top hangs loosely off the large shoulder pads, however the deep red color is quite becoming... Are you a fashion critic? Good stuff. Also, if anybody would be so kind to youtube, I turned it on just as Gordie was getting his award and missed all of Pavel.

Well I am a little pissed they didn't get more time, freaking Pronger got to sit down...Pronger!!! Glad to see those fans representing the D though. And nice plug by Ozzie for Detroit as he promised.

Hey, I was at the parade on Friday and next to me were a bunch of Swedes! Also I don't care if my wanting Sergei back is selfish. He is one of my favorite players ever so of course I want him back. And no, he would not be detrimental to the team. He is still, at 38 years of age, infinitessimally better than a player like Hartigan. And I do realize that the chances of Sergei coming back are slim to none but that's not going to stop me from hoping.

Did you see him there? Whaa. Sergei come home!!!!! A little part of me will die inside if he doesn't retire a Red Wing. I know people don't want him back, but given the proper role (which he would in Detroit) he would be great. He could mentor a guy like Flip. People didn't think Dallas Drake had anything to offer this team last year...

I can't speak for Richmond, but my Grandparents are currently living very close to Ft. Myers and are originally from Detroit. So there is your answer. A lot of people in Florida are from Michigan and Ohio and are still Wings fans.

OH NO! Dom is the only reason I stayed awake during those games against Minny! He made watching that much more exciting and interactive as well! (I loved to ***** and swear at him for leaving his net and doing all the crazy s*** he does). Thanks for everything Dom! Enjoy your retirement.

If anybody wants to carpool it from Ann Arbor that'd be nice seeing as I wound up in freaking Highland park on Wednesday. THAT was good times. I'm all for meeting people though, I'll feel a little bit like an ass going alone. But dedicated Wings fan that I am, I am willing to sacrifice! Is there a specific spot to meet?

I'd be down. None of my friends can get off of work, but I still really want to go. It will be my first parade and I don't want to miss it cuz you never know if you will get another chance right?

Let's go Red Wings!

ONLY 14? You underestimate him IMHO.

Newfie Power! clap clap clapclapclap!
