    Ok, good point, I may have over emphasized my point, but that's what I was getting at...

    franzen to miss playoffs? (if wings make it)

    what the hell are you talking about? Do you know anything about hockey, or even skating? first, Fischer was never a speedskater either and second, an ACL injury is HUGE for ALL skaters, let alone for skaters like Franzen which rely on balance and strength more than speed... if anything, this affects someone like him MORE

    wrong.

    Hey, newsflash panic-maniacs

    8th seed is still playoffs... I'd rather go in as an 8th with everyone heating up and healthy, than a 1st with new injuries and a team on the downslide...

    Hey, newsflash panic-maniacs

    couldn't agree more

    Hey, newsflash panic-maniacs

    it gets old when 90% of threads on here are just people bitching, most of the time about stuff they have no clue about...

    Hey, newsflash panic-maniacs

    my point was - even if they were .500 during that stretch, that's enough... let alone the fact that they're playing above that...

    Hey, newsflash panic-maniacs

    they won't be a high seed, but they'll still make the playoffs, especially considering there will still be at least 20 games once most of them are back...

    Re-naming NHL Trophies

    99 being retired league wide alone is an f'in joke...

    Re-naming NHL Trophies

    one of the worst ideas ever - luckily, I would gladly wager any amount that it will not happen...

    NHL Officials named to work Olympics

    you have GOT to be f***ing kidding me?!?!! LaRue is the worst official in the history of the game... what a joke...

    I know it makes me a bad person to hope it does, but... *crosses fingers*

    Hudler?

    in the cap world, this is actually a great thing - we'll have a player in his prime, who by all accounts, knows what it takes to be in the NHL, but has developed more of a killer instinct and maturity from being a teams number 1 - basically a way to send him to the minors for more seasoning, but a better version of our minors(AHL) and with no waiver eligibility...

    2010 UFA's

    haha I don't care how we get rid of him at this point, as long as I don't have to watch his horrendous play any longer... On a serious note, out of that entire list there are a few I would LOVE to see in the Winged wheel, but can't see feasibly happening (Kovalchuk, Semin) and a couple I would be ok with... not that it would happen, but how nice would this look - Henrik Zetterberg ($6.083m) / Pavel Datsyuk ($6.700m) / Tomas Holmstrom ($1.500m) Johan Franzen ($3.955m) / Valtteri Filppula ($3.000m) / Alex Semin ($5.500m) Ville Leino ($0.800m) / Darren Helm ($1.200m) / Daniel Cleary ($2.800m) Justin Abdelkader ($0.900m) / Kris Draper ($1.583m) / Brad May ($0.500m) Drew Miller ($0.525m) Nicklas Lidstrom ($4.450m) / Jonathan Ericsson ($0.900m) Brian Rafalski ($6.000m) / Niklas Kronwall ($3.000m) Brad Stuart ($3.750m) / Jakub Kindl ($0.883m) Derek Meech ($0.600m) Chris Osgood ($1.417m) Jimmy Howard ($0.717m) ROSTER: 22; PAYROLL: $56.763m; CAP ROOM: $0.037m BONUSES: $0.000m made at capgeek.com

    A Tough Way...

    such a great goalie and a good guy to boot - classy move by Miller, especially when he did nothing wrong... really puts jerks like Ed Belfour in perspective...

    when injured players start returning

    exactly... all of these "the sky is falling" threads lately have been annoying the hell out of me - We lost 3 of our best 7 players (some might even argue 3 of our best 6 or even 5) - NO team could lose that much and still roll like nothing happened... once they are all back, we are going to notice a drastic difference also, people should look at the bright side - I think Drew Miller has been quite a find as a 4th liner and we never would have been able to claim him without this bad luck first happening...

    How to get out of the current funk..

    The sky is falling, the sky is falling! Everyone calm the f down, were missing 3 of our best 7 players... ANY team would be in a funk under these circumstances... RELAX.

    Betuzzi -

    I think that's it 100%, but solely because he's playing so passively because of it - he doesn't want to hurt anyone and everyone knows that when you play any sport passively, you are not as effective...

    Pascal Leclaire latest to be injured

    someone need to take this guy out before he ends someone's career...
