    Quincey to play for Denver Cutthroats CHL Hockey Team

    Seems like a strange name for a team. Pretty sure in pro sports, such a name would be considered too inappropriate, since it implies cutting someone's throat, which I believe is illegal.

    Best pure goal scorer for the Wings

    None of those players are pure goal scorers, as the stats show.

    Who was the better Wing/Player? Yzerman or Lidstrom

    Better player. Lidstrom Better Red Wing. Yzerman. I think Lidstrom's all time ranking will ultimately be higher around NHL circles, but Yzerman was more important for the franchise and being the face of the team so long.

    Where in the World Is...

    Lebda sucks. Could skate really fast, though.

    Sacrifice the full season to guarantee Bettman's removal?

    Can't they just burn Bettman inside of a Wicker Man to save the season?

    [Retired] Official Lockout Thread

    Does anyone think these owners or players really give a s*** about fans being upset? I don't.

    Strangest Moments in NHL History

    Every time Mark Mowers stepped on the ice, it was a strange moment.

    Russia/Canada Revisit the Summit Series

    So would this count as one of the biggest chokejobs in hockey history? The Russians were up 3-1-1, with three games left to go, and all on Russian soil. And in the final game, they were up by 2 goals after the second intermission. Yet they still somehow lost the series. Granted, they were heavy underdogs going into the series, but it's still a massive collapse as far as I'm concerned.

    Strangest Moments in NHL History

    How about Tie Domi fighting that drunken fan in the penalty box? Or how about the time Gilles Gratton (the weirdest guy in hockey history) first unveiled his tiger mask.

    [Retired] Official Lockout Thread

    Funny how nowhere in the stupid American sports media (espn) is this lockout even being remotely covered. Maybe the NHL network should cover it a little, instead of mindlessly replaying last year's playoff games over and over, like they've been doing the last few years.

    Davidson leaving Blues.

    White as home jerseys or road jerseys?

    Agree with everyone else here. Don't know why the league went back to old school crap, when there's like 30 teams in the league now.

    Datsyuk scores a goal off his head

    Pavel looking liberated without Beavis and Butt-Head playing on his line.

    That 2nd row isn't too bad, huh? And Metro Prystai is one of the greatest sports names ever.

    Datsyuk scores a goal off his head

    Maybe Zenit can sign him to some monstrous contract.

    KHL/Overseas Games

    I'd feel safer if he played for Vityaz.
  17. I wonder what channel the NHL will be relegated to when it returns in 2014? Can't get much worse than Versus, you'd think.
  18. I'd like to think they can still save the season, but I lost faith in that based on the last lockout.
  19. I blame everyone associated with the NHL for this debacle. Part of me wishes the league would fold, since they're stupid enough to have 2 lockouts within one decade.

    The NHL's 50 Greatest Non-North American Players

    Strange rankings. Reminded me of the greatest ever imdb film list, which has Lord of the Rings ranked above Goodfellas and Casablanca.

    Would a Shorter Season Help or Hurt the Wings?

    Will there be a Winter Classic if the season is shorter?

    Greatest Red Wing Alum of all time

    Fans will obviously vote for Yzerman, because the twitter people are too young to remember Gordie Howe or what he did for the franchise and the NHL in general.
  23. Does Grigorenko count?
  24. You're entitled to your opinion, but I wouldn't call Kharlamov a "romantic flash in the pan". I've never heard anyone but you say he was behind Makarov. He influenced a generation of Russian forwards and would have been dominant in the NHL, much like he was in the Summit Series.
