Am I missing something, that wasn't a trip?

While Babcock obviously has many great coaching qualities, I think Blashill is actually a better leader and may be smarter. In a Griffin's Calder Cup video, Blashill stands at the podium giving the team credit for "waking up every morning since October and making a conscious decision to be great. You either decide to be great, or you make decisions that move you away from greatness. And in the dog days of February and March, these guys still woke up every morning and make a decision to commit to greatness, and it paid off" , He gives the team credit for it, but he's the one who told them that is what it will take to win the Cup. And they followed him and played their hearts out. Babs says things like, "Are we a good enough team to play that brand of hockey? I don't know, you tell me." " these guys are all out, so don't talk about them. Talk about the guys who are in. Now which one of these guys are we going to slot into that spot...I don't know, uh, how bout him, yeah, there we go, decision made, let's move on." I just think Babs should have won atleast two more Cups with those Red Wing teams.

I agree with the original article, http://thehockeywriters.com/hockey-at-the-movies-the-ultimate-fictional-hockey-team/#sthash.MMLGdPY2.dpuf I'd scratch Bombay for the speedy Premature Ejaculator. "Stevie Weeks...The last addition to the Mystery, Alaska squad, Weeks was a teenager who skated the towns frozen river every morning. On a team full of speedsters, Weeks was clearly the fastest on the roster. Weeks play was impressive enough for the Rangers to sign him to a minor-league contract." - See more at: http://thehockeywriters.com/hockey-at-the-movies-the-ultimate-fictional-hockey-team/#sthash.MMLGdPY2.dpuf

Reality: Jim Blashill Hypothetically: Kirk Gibson

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz......zzzzzzzzzzzz....

C'mon man, he's from Davison.

For a line brawl, it was pretty anti-climactic.

Tatar really at 2C? I'd rather see Tatar Z Nyq, with Abby at 2C Edit: Well at second glance, I guess I can see the logic in the projected lines.

Not sure what you guys were expecting.

we could have split gas $ and stayed at my buddie's house! Shudda called me!

Exactly. I don't want the game to change just to attract more fans.

Every time Ken Daniel say that Detroit has sold out I look around and they have tons of empty seats. That indicates great corporate support and fan support, but tons of tickets left unused sitting in the corporate office or home office due to lack of interest. I'd be concerd if I were Ilitch jr.

We would have advanced past Chicago with White/Cola

This is the exact thing hockey players complain about when they retire: They miss the camaraderie.

Take that back! They had me at the opening scene with Kate Beckinsale getting rained on on top of the bell tower and then free falling down to the ground and strutting away. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_504ZRY7udY

That wasn't really interesting...just sayin Done.

Straight forward fun? Here on LetsBickerandBanterWings? ;-)

Andy pred 48, can you give a ruling on this? Spirit of the law or letter of the law?

For me, it's a moot point We are fortunate enough to have them both, I'm totally and forever stoked for that, and have too many other issues with the current Wings situation to spend my limited amount of ram on this one. You guys have fun with this thread. I'm out. Edit: Bring it up again in the hockey dog days of summer ( like it has been in so many summers past) and I'll be in.

You're officially a dick.

Well that and the Canadians wore classy suits and ties and the US wore hoodies on game day, according to Don Cherry

I'd like to buy a cd of the fsd feed.

"Al Arbour once said, 'in an outdoor alumni game shootout, if you can just get your shooters to laugh...' "

Sweet pass, Mickey!

Holy crap. Howe, Lindsay, Yzerman: I'm getting misty eyed.
