    Chris Kelly to the Red Wings?

    both maltby and homer are in the last years of their contracts. who's to say either of them re-sign after next season. i know kelly isn't exactly what a lot of you want in the line-up but he has potential to score 20-25 goals a season, especially with the talent we already have. plus, it's just a "rumor".

    Chris Kelly to the Red Wings?

    "In both Hudler and Hossa's cases, given their age and their stature, we were prepared to sign them and then move players," Holland said. "I don't know that I'm prepared to sign someone on the open market to a one-year deal and then have to move some players." nothing in this interview about trading any of our d for a forward

    Chris Kelly to the Red Wings?

    he's had some decent years in ottawa and is still relatively young. the last four years there his +/- has been +42

    Chris Kelly to the Red Wings?

    no objections to him. however, his cap hit is a little over $2mil. this would leave us practically no room to sign a veteran 4th liner unless we trade a pick and a d-man to ottawa. lebda maybe? apparently he was a griffin during the 2001–02 season - regular season numbers; 31 gp, 3 goals, 3 assists, 20 pim - playoff numbers; 5 gp, 1 goal, 1 assist, 5 pim

    Wings current rank

    trading osgood for thomas
  13. the song is by the band Four Year Strong and it's called "Heroes Get Remembered, Legends Never Die". i think the title and lyrics fit pretty well with what we've done this year. i added a little sound clip at the beginning and i thought i'd share it with all you fine wings fans. thanks to swayze for his help. enjoy Go Here and Click Download Oh, something tells me I'm never gonna live this one down But I'll try but I'm gonna need a quick hand, A sharp eye, a smooth talker Just to play this one out to the very end. And this is where you come in I know, that I could count on you to walk me through And I'm making sure that everyone who's anyone Can be the someone that they've always wanted to. If I couldn't get away with anything Then how in the hell did I get here? Say something. Say anything. You were never the one to have something to say. Say something. Say something. Say anything. I've seen the best and worst of you But we're sticking through Because without all of the ups and downs We've been through You know that it's true That I could really get sick and tired of you. Oh, something tells me I'm never gonna live this one down But I'm down and out Cause if the tensions light as a feather Then I'd be bored stiff We gotta mix things up a bit to keep up my interest Sad enough to say that Alone I could barely light a match But together we can burn this place down. Sorry about the mess But when we team up, team up We always seem to bring this place to the ground And this is where you come in I know, that I could count on you to walk me through And I'm making sure that everyone who's anyone Can be the someone that they've always wanted to.

    Why is Samuelsson playing?

    He doesn't bring anything to the team IMO. He has a hard shot but that doesn't mean he deserves to be on the 2nd line or even the 2nd PP unit, he has no defensive game. What do you think?

    Why is Samuelsson playing?

    I'm not jumping on any bandwagons, all I'm saying is that they could scratch Samuelsson for atleast one game. Cleary could play on the 2nd line and Abdelkader could take his spot on the 3rd with Draper & Hudler, see how things go. As far as defense goes I do believe Quincey filled in nicely during the playoffs last year, but if we want another shot from the blueline then they could always play Ericsson. This is just my opinion so it'd be nice if people didn't bite my head off for making a suggestion just like everyone else is entitled to do on these forums.

    What Would You Do?

    Samuelsson and Hudler for Rolston Lilja and Kopecky for Lucic We should have never re-signed Hasek. Instead of signing Drake we should have offered Downey a 2 year $1-1.5 million (ONE WAY) contract. Holmstrom-Datsyuk-Franzen Rolston-Zetterberg-Filipula Cleary-Draper-Maltby Downey-Ellis-Lucic Lidstrom-Kindl/Ericsson Rafalski-Kronwall Chelios-Lebda Osgood Howard
