    For the three who have NHL network...

    I've seen that show before, and thought their rankings of his 10 best goals was plain idiotic. There were several that were ranked higher than where they should be, and several other great goals of his that weren't even on the list. Anyway, it's still worth watching just because it's about Stevie Y, and each time it's on, I miss having him on the team more and more. It's always easy to forget what a talented player he was in his prime, before he achieved his God-like captain status, with leadership and playing through injuries.

    Could we See Crosby vs Ovechkin in Round 1?

    If this happens, it'll be impossible for any of the other series to get any TV time. I hope none of the Wings games would be scheduled at the same time as those 2 teams playing against each other.

    I'm kind of mixed on this. I'd love to see the divealanche miss the playoffs again, but at the same time I'd love for the Wings to play them in the 1st round and sweep them. I guess we'll just have to sit back and let things naturally progress.

    No-touch icing.

    The icing rule is fine as it is. Injuries are a part of the game, and the players know that and are pretty used to the icing rule. Geez, why don't they have no-touch fighting while they're at it? It works in the NBA and MLB.

    3/25 GDT: Red Wings 2, Blues 1

    Hopefully we'll see some fireworks for tonight's game. I think there's a good chance that we'll see a fight or two. Maybe Ozzie and Legace will throw down while we're at it.

    Edmonton Oilers

    I wouldn't mind a chance for revenge. Besides, Manny Legace isn't around to blow the whole series for us.

    NHL's disappointing players

    You know that Mario Lemieux guy was a disappontment also. Everyone said he'd be the next Gretzky, yet he's about 1,000 points behind Gretzky on the all time scoring list. Can you say overhyped?

    NHL's disappointing players

    Every talented player entering the NHL gets compared to some Hall of Fame player. It's stupid, but that's the way it's always done. Spezza has been very good so far, although a lot of it is due to playing with Heatley and Alfie. I don't think he's been a disappointment in any way, though. Yeah, he sucked in the Finals last year, but so did the whole team.

    NHL's disappointing players

    I don't undestand what the beef is with everyone hating Crosby. I guess nice guys finish last or something. As I've posted before, he's not going to tell the league "Please stop marketing me". It's just not going to happen.

    Babcock: This is the best team I've coached

    Have a nice life, Opie.

    I doubt there's any footage of that Fontinato fight, but I've always heard stories about it. The truth is, I've never heard of Gordie Howe fighting anyone else. I guess that fight cemented his reputation as a guy not to be messed with.

    best website for red wings statistical history?

    The best hockey stat website I always think of is hockeydb.com, but I'm not sure whether that will help you or not when it comes to finding leaders in statistical categories. I guess you'll just have to play around with it to find what you need.

    Babcock: This is the best team I've coached

    See that's exactly the response I was looking for. Every time you post something good about him, you sound even more ridiculous. I love to read it, though. So now we don't appreciate what we're seeing with Sammy? I'll have to think about that one.

    I love Dave Brown. He might be my favorite fighter ever. It's amazing that he threw exclusively with his left, yet no one could do a damn thing about it when it came to strategizing against him. Anyway, here's a great one of Brown vs. Ray, where unsurprisingly, both of them wound up shedding jerseys.

    And if you haven't had enough of watching Kyte get beat up. Here's another one.

    Here are my favorite Rob Ray fights, Lou. I've always thought he was kind of cheap shedding his jersey, but he did have a monster right hand for an undersized fighter. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9Ms4Ob5VmI

    I love you too, Opie. You're the only man on the planet that can write half a page of info on how Sammy is a decent player. Keep up the good work.

    I can't wait till PAIN TRAIN opens up like that. Also, it's too bad Peat had his career ended with this "new NHL" crap. He was very fun to watch.

    The Playoff Beard

    Hey you're both welcome. How dare I suggest that women discussing how they shave their legs doesn't belong in the discussion forum?

    Here's another classic Probert fight. This was Scott Parker's welcome party to the NHL.

    Good one!
  22. I guess Babcock complaining about us not being on NBC paid off.

    The Playoff Beard

    I can't believe this stupid topic has gotten so much posts. I guess that's what happens when you have the President's trophy all clinched with 3 weeks to go in the season. The topics are only going to get worse from now on.

    I'd love to have a guy like that the next time we face the Ducks.

    Here's my favorite fight in recent memory. I just love seeing Peters looking like a jackass.
