I don't think we would. Columbus isn't just doing good because Fleury sucks. They work hard and are a better team than us. Columbus is hard to play against. The Wings are not. We'd lose to the Pens with our turnover problems and inability to stop a PK from scoring. They'd get more powerplays than Boston too.

The Wings may feel sorry for Franzen because of his "mental issues" and decide to help him regroup. I can see him being back for several reasons, that being one.

LOL. He hasn't been very noticeable. Andersson was better than him in last year's playoffs.

We can only wish. Still leaves a hole for a scoring winger. I thought Nyquist might be one, but he's not ready to handle pressure.

What a difference a year makes. Last year when we lost in the playoffs, there was a lot of hope for the future. The young guys were awesome, Howard had his best season and playoffs as a Wing, and it looked like the old garbage would be gone. One year later, the young guys have disappeared in the playoffs (especially Nyquil), Howard had his worst season as Wing, and all the old trash that we thought would be gone last season is still here. I can't think of one positive to come out of these playoffs.

How? It'd be hard trading him and buying him out will cost us money. It'd be shocking to see Holland actually do that.

Of course these Boston trashballs would be cheering for this ref.

Thank you God. You've done something right tonight.

Whoever turned that puck over shouldn't be back on this team. It was Franzen. Trade this piece of s*** to Edmonton. Hope his wife likes the weather there.

Oh I forgot. I can't wait until our 5 year injury bug is over so we can then concentrate on winning when healthy.

Can you blame them in this series?

Can this team overcome even the littlest of adversity?

Get f***ed Smith. Idiot screwed us last year in the playoffs and he did it again tonight. I don't want this kid back next season. He's about as clutch as Yashin.

This game was going fine until the refs had to get involved.

That will kill your momentum right there.

Hmmm...............

If we score on this powerplay, we win the series.

This is how he should feel about signing with the Wings to get his Cup.

This is probably the last game of Aldfresson's career. After what happened to him and Modano, I hope no more 40+ Hall of Famers will join the Wings.

We look like an MLS team playing against Bayern Munich.

He ruined the youth movement, though, by signing Cleary in the offseason. It's like Holland has some kind of sickness he just can't resist to do something like that. Like an itch that needed to be scratched.

Interesting. Burns is making 5.7 million this year. Seems like too much, even though he's a good player.

Glendenning has taken over Cleary's role of getting too much icetime and being overused by his coach. I expect to see him on the powerplay soon.
