It should be right. He hasn't had a good year and is mediocre in the playoffs.

Maybe that's who Holland was calling on the phone.

Sign him Kenny! He won the "most accurate shooter" at the ASG once, going 4 for 4. We need someone who can aim the puck skillfully into the top shelf.

Except for having Yzerman, Fedorov, Shanahan, Lidstrom, Chelios and Larionov already on the roster. Even if the 2001 offseason signings didn't happen, the Wings would have still had a much better team than this current crap. Detroit isn't that attractive a team to come to anymore.

How do they know? Are they tapping the GM's phones?

Strange trade for the Flyers. They're not going anywhere this year, so why make this move? May as well have kept their conditional picks. Trade makes sense for Detroit, since Huskins wasn't going to play anyway.

To live in the New York area. Especially for the families of players. Especially foreign players.

Rebuild from what? Their rebuilding started years ago when they let go of Drury and Briere. They had the best offense in the league for several years there. I don't see how moving the above players and getting a Filppula is going to start some rebuilding process. Also, I used to want Clowe, but he hasn't scored a goal this year. Sure he'd create more room, but he's not a finisher. The good news is that he should be easy to acquire and San Jose shouldn't be reluctant to let him go.

Why would Buffalo move Vanek, who leads their team in scoring? Have they already given up on the playoffs?

Seriously? He may as well have said he had fun getting paid for nothing.

I was talking about the future. I'm afraid we're going to sound like Canadiens fans soon, talking about all we accomplished in the past.

Those two prospects better turn out to be the next Gretzky and Messier, or else I'll be forever pissed.

Anyway we can get him and immediately get him to take a massive paycut? Otherwise, I say no. Holland is cheap, but even I wouldn't make this move.

And then he overpays for people like Quincey and Samuelsson, like the above poster suggested. I'd rather overpay for stars then for scrubs.

Don't get excited. Lilja and Worrell were good buddies, and sadly were never reunited in Detroit.

Nah. It was a Freudian slip, because you actually feel that way.

You said he was the greatest talent in NHL history.

I would propose to her tomorrow.

Oh. Well, then I hope Iginla breaks his ******* neck on his first shift. And I'm not joking. Do we still have a shot at McGrattan?

Seriously? If it was all about Crosby, Iginla would have only wanted to play for the Pens and no one else. Not like Datsyuk or Toews are crappy set-up men. He had a list of several teams.

Yeah, go root for a team that actually wants to win Stanley Cups.

Why can't Holland trade two prospects no one has ever heard of and a 1st round pick (which is effectively a 2nd for the Pens), for Jarome Iginla? I guess they have a GM that actually makes moves, instead of offering contracts to former castoffs.

Holland knew this (and Carlo CocaCola's past) and still made those signings. It's not like they came to the Wings for free either. Terrible GM work.
