Frankie Vatrano? Does Pierre think he's watching Goodfellas or something? Same here. I attended the Sharks game. Likely their best game all season.

You should still go if you can.

I have a bottle of Lagavulin 16. Don't want to waste it on this game.

There's no reason either Ken Holland or Jeff Blashill should have a job after this game. I wish Putin was the owner of this team.

Everyone on this forum lately seems to have a more impressive "portfolio" than me. That said, at least I've scored more often than Sheahan this year.

This is the hardest award to judge. Can't just look at the numbers. One has to attend games in person and see how these players play when they don't have the puck and when the camera isn't necessarily focused on them. I wouldn't mind seeing the players vote for this award.

Time to replace Blashill with Arsene Wenger.

If this team didn't have so many injuries this season, they'd be a playoff contender like in previous seasons. If they had Datsyuk, that would obviously help too. Even with making the playoffs, they'd still be out in the first round like the last few years. Just not good enough.

Our impressive OT record continues. Keep putting jobbers out there Blashill.

That was awesome. Need to make it count here.

Oh yes, I forgot.

Kipwinger lost his roster spot on the junior high team to an enforcer.

Out of those options, it's Jonathan Tayes. "Other" is too broad for me to even think about. Hell, life is overrated.

Do you also have immunity at your job, like Kenny does?

Leo, is that you? General manager, you say? So you finally came out about who you are.

No. Holland is the headless horseman at this point. Guy probably had his secretary handling the phone calls while he went to the parking lot to kick tires.

Holland has become a weak negotiator. We need real strong man like Putin to make deals for us.

Since we're not making the playoffs, why not call him up and let him punch a few faces? God forbid Wings fans who attend games should have something to get excited about this season.

Right. I'm surprised the Rangers didn't give him Leetch's number.

"We're nine points out" is going to become my favorite Holland quote. "It's not like we're 29 out" may be even better.

That's what the chicks go to hockey games for. Not to see your boy Smith turning the puck over like a fool.

Stud goalie? He's putting up Cheveldae like numbers this season.

Stay on topic guys, or I'll trade all of you to another forum for better posters. I'm thinking the Wild boards, maybe?

Agree with most posters here. I feel we should have gotten more for Vanek. Holland just doesn't make good trades with Florida teams. I like fighting and toughness as much as anyone else, but Mcilrath has not been able to stay up in the NHL, and the Wings aren't exactly known as a team that likes big tough guys. I doubt we're changing our philosophy as a franchise on that point. Give Holland a right-handed defenseman, and he'll act like Pavlov's dog for you. Worst trade since Obama traded five terrorists for Bo Bergdahl. Then you stalk 'em on Facebook...............................wait, what are we talking about here?

Peer pressure. Like seeing two of your buddies in a bar hook up with average looking women at closing time, and then scrambling to find anybody to go home with yourself. The Rangers go home with Smith. Hmmm..............I wonder what we could get for Danny Dekeyser? He's big and young. Someone would certainly pay a lot for him right now.
