    Stu Grimson The Lawyer

    No, 95-96 was his last year in Detroit. He was in Hartford by 1997.

    Stu Grimson The Lawyer

    I'm not licensed in Tennessee, so he couldn't give me anything other than a really bad beating. Yeah, I'm a Wings fan and I love hockey fights, so I've always liked Grimson. However, him being a lawyer puts the icing on the cake for me. I need to move him up on my hockey love list. I imagine most of his clients in Tennessee don't know who he is though, since hockey isn't popular over there. If he was a lawyer in say Detroit or Chicago where he played, it'd be different.

    Z, the greatest #40 in sports history?

    Yeah, I still can't believe Barret Jackass won the Calder trophy that year. Looking back on it now, Zetteberg is one of the best forwards in hockey, while Jackass hasn't even come close to being considered an All-Star or a member of Team Canada. Has there ever been a worse Calder Trophy winner?

    Z, the greatest #40 in sports history?

    Gale Sayers is a Hall of Famer and one of the greatest and most influential running backs ever. I don't know if Zetterberg is a Hall of Famer when he retires, or if he'll be considered one of the best ever. I don't think so. So, Sayers is the best #40 out of those two players.

    Eaves vs. Versteeg

    I prefer seeing the big untalented goons square off. I miss the days of untalented thugs like Twist and Odjick squaring off in pugilistic combat. Now these middleweight fighters seem to have taken over the league.

    think we can pass em in a week?

    I think it's over for us. Pens and Hawks in the Finals. Wings miss playoffs by one point.

    Anyone here ever see the Stanley Cup in person?

    I saw the fake one at the HHOF. Do they usually have the real one there or something, because many people have mentioned the HHOF, and I was under the impression that the one there is always the fake one?

    A fix for the 3pt Game

    I don't remember being bored by hockey before shootouts were implemented. There were plenty of OT wins before this 1 point for a loss system was created.
  9. Holland should have brought Brad May and Andreas Lilja with him, just to intimidate the guy some more.

    I know people are upset that the teams above us are winning, but those teams have played better than us this season, hence they're higher in the standings. It sucks but it's only fair. Those teams are beating the East every night, while we're getting our asses kicked by the New York Islanders. The Wings need to go on one of their patented 9 game winning streaks.

    A fix for the 3pt Game

    Oh sorry. I forgot to mention, 1 point for the tie. Basically, go back to the way it used to be.

    A fix for the 3pt Game

    2 points for a win 0 points for a loss. Five minute 4 on 4 OT's. 1 point for a tie. No shootouts.

    pavel datsyuk completely bombing this season

    I guess his wife went shopping with a Russian woman yesterday, because Datsyuk looked awesome today.

    Someone Needs to Slap Babcock

    If Leino played these last two games, he would have scored on both the shootouts.

    Someone Needs to Slap Babcock

    Get over it already man. We're all entitled for a consistent hard working team every game. We haven't had that the last few weeks. They played hard today, but yesterday took the last 2 periods off. You need to be a little more critical and less homerical (if that's a word).

    Eaves vs. Versteeg

    I say it's a draw, and most knowledgeable fight fans seem to agree. Hawks fans think Versteeg dominated the fight easily and cemented himself as the next Rick Rypien. Still, I never thought I'd see either of these players squareoff and fight.

    1/17 GDT: Blackawks 4 at Red Wings 3 (SO)

    I was hoping Toronto would overrule the Hossa goal, saying that the puck didn't cross the red line. I mean, it's only fair.

    isnt kronwall back soon?

    Who needs Kronwall when we have LeBeech out there on defense filling his spot?

    Someone Needs to Slap Babcock

    The first shootout goal was a softie. Also, he didn't challenge very well or look too confident on the other shootout goals.

    1/17 GDT: Blackawks 4 at Red Wings 3 (SO)

    Didn't you hear? Versteeg won the fight by KO.

    1/17 GDT: Blackawks 4 at Red Wings 3 (SO)

    Really? Maybe I'll try the whole Blues site thing. I wonder how long I'd last with my personality and feelings towards their team?
  22. GMRwings1983

    isnt kronwall back soon?

    2-3 weeks is a big freaking setback. He should have been back already based on early reports as recently as a few weeks back. He's our best offensive defenseman too.

    1/17 GDT: Blackawks 4 at Red Wings 3 (SO)

    You're such a liar. All those sites called the fight a draw. You Hawks fans are terrible homers. Go to your own thread if you're going to purposefully post misleading things like that.

    1/17 GDT: Blackawks 4 at Red Wings 3 (SO)

    The Wings best players in the last two decades have been low draft picks and not high ones. Once again, your knowledge of hockey seems poor. Go to a Pens thread, and accuse them of losing every year to get high draft picks. Not us.

    1/17 GDT: Blackawks 4 at Red Wings 3 (SO)

    I know. These fans only come here when we play the Blackhawks, and only when they win. That's why they only started showing up this season.
