    NHL'S Top 10 most likely breakout players

    LOL Lebda's offensive rushes are trash, I don't ever remember seeing anything he does result in a chance let alone a goal. It doesn't take much offensive panache to skate up the left boards and skate behind the net, the only thing he ever does. Usually the only result is the puck coming back into our zone 5 seconds later. Will Flip ever be a Datsyuk or Zetterberg, probably not, but I think he'll be good for 70 points eventually.

    Sportsnet: Hudler awarded 2 year deal 5m total; Still KHL bound

    I really just didn't think it needed arguing. What other reason is there to go to russia? He didn't get a big enough offer from the wings - > russia. And think a little? There is NO REASON for Hudler to go to arbitration. Anyone can see that. Holland said it himself, all it did was tie his hands.

    Flip played about half of the games on the third line, the other on the second. It will be a great year for Flip.

    Sportsnet: Hudler awarded 2 year deal 5m total; Still KHL bound

    It's obviously true for Hudler.

    Sportsnet: Hudler awarded 2 year deal 5m total; Still KHL bound

    I can't believe Holland would actually want Hudler in a wings jersey ever again. We're not that desperate. I hope we can trade his rights to some bottom feader team for a 1st and a 3rd.

    Sykora Possibly Coming To Detroit?

    Yeah such a shame that Holland signed those ex-pens conklin and Hossa. They did s*** for us. We probably would have won the cup without them. GET SYKORA! He could be had for cheap, this would be great. I'd rather have Prospal, but I'd be very happy with Sykora.

    Hudler's Arbitration Hearing Today

    Regradless of his intentions, hudler has handled things horribly, put the wings in a s***ty position, and is an idiot.

    Hudler's Arbitration Hearing Today

    So all this hassle is worth not being able to get phone calls from other teams, but it's not worth 10 million dollars?

    Hudler's Arbitration Hearing Today

    I think the arbitration is a ploy for the wings to lose his rights so he can go play in russia without worrying. It's stupid to want to go to arbitration just so teams don't make offers, incredibly so. Is it that hard to say "no thanks"? It's pretty obvious what hudler really wants. And that's money - in russia.

    Filppula 9th best Fin

    WOW you are FREAKING insane. Why the hell did you even just bring osgood into this? go back to the hole you crawled out of. It wasn't me suggesting .908 is some elite cutoff, YOU did when you arbitrarily picked .908 to compare Kiprusoff's past to his present for god knows why.

    Vaclav Prospal Bought Out

    Well you can't tell the quality of the turnovers before they're made. If I gave you the choice between a player that is going to give the puck away 10 times versus a player is going to give the puck away 5 times, you'd pick the latter. I'm not relating this to any red wings player, just saying. Does anyone know if Prospal has already been bought out yet?

    ^ is .908 save % the global cutoff for elite?

    Vaclav Prospal Bought Out

    ^ The thing is any of the 5 turnovers could result in a goal.

    But he has crappy hands

    Mike Grier's agent says he's 'interested' in Red Wings

    I would love grier. For some reason I have a bunch of shorthanded goals with him when I play the sharks in nhl 09.

    Detroit MIGHT BE interested in Kessel?

    Do you think he's going to be on the fourth line with maltby and draper or do you not realize that flip only played with franzen and hossa for about 15 games.

    Detroit MIGHT BE interested in Kessel?

    Which is why Filppula has more even strength points than Hudler? And not good hands? (^ of course that was just luck though) (^ crazy angle goal, and lets not forget the SICK keep in and pass he made to hossa) And lets not forget the two amazing plays by filppula here: He has greats hands. People smarter than (ie the red wings front office) you realize this.

    Detroit MIGHT BE interested in Kessel?

    That is way off. He got 40 points this year with basically no PP time and a checking role for the most part. With more PP time and being on a scoring line, Flip will get at least 65 points this year.
  22. Z and D for the C

    Detroit MIGHT BE interested in Kessel?

    ^ That was my point, but I didn't realize that Kessel does in fact play center. Regardless, I think Filppula is more important to the wings than Kessel. He have a scorer on the line, Franzen, we need someone able to distribute to the puck.
  23. Z and D for the C

    Detroit MIGHT BE interested in Kessel?

    That would require splitting them up. This last year should put that experiment to rest.

    Detroit MIGHT BE interested in Kessel?

    If you trade filppula, who are you gonig to have center the second line? Helm?

    Can we stop arguing about the past? Jesus. Both years the better team won, deal with it.
